El indicativo de presente / Present Indicative

Present indicative tense is used to express an action that happens on a habitual basis or that is happening now. Examples in English:
  • I walk my dog every day [habitual]
  • I'm walking my dog right now. [happening right now]
Note: All the verb conjugations on this site are conjugated in the present indicative tense, so you can refer to the verb conjugations page to see how it is formed. The translations in English are as follows:
  • I/you/he/she/it/we/they [verb]
  • I/you/he/she/it/we/they are [verb]ing
  • I/you/he/she/it/we/they do [verb]
However, for the second one, a more accurate way to say it is with conjugating estar in the present and adding a gerund (-ando form of a verb)

Example:
  • Juega=He/she plays or does play
  • Está jugando=He/she is playing
For examples of fully conjugated verbs in the present tense, see the verb conjugations page.
