The Present Simple Tense is a verbal time that we use for describe actions that you do everyday or with frecuency

It have a positive and a negative version

For example

-I play videogames

This one is afirmative

-I don't play videogames

This one is negative

-He play videogames

This one is afirmative

-He doesn't play videogames

This one is negative

In afirmative sentenses we don't use don't and doesn't only on negative sentenses

When we use don't and we use doesn't on negative sentenses?

Don't

I + + write

You + + walk

We + Don't + play

They + + go

Subject + Auxiliary + Verb

Example:

+: I walk to my house

-: I don't walk to my house

Doesn't

He + + sleep

She + Doesn't + read

It + + run

Subject + Auxiliary + Verb

Example:

+: She reads a terror book

-: She doesn't read a terror book

Why we delete the "s" of "reads" on negative?

Because on the negative we use the base form of the infinitive. The third person verbs always loses the final "s" when it is on negative

Another example:

+: Dan needs Toby's help

-: Dan doesn't need Toby's help

We delete the "s" of "needs" because we use the base form

We use Don't when the subject is: I, You, We, They

We use Doesn't when the subject is: He, She, It

Don't is the contraction of Do not

Doesn't is the contraction of Does not

There's no diference if you do this

-I don't eat pizza

Or if do this

-I do not eat pizza

We can conclute with this: The Present Simple Tense is very important for English because this one is used all the time in the lenguage and if you dot learn it good, you cannot speak English well
