Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Enjoy English Talks, where every conversation helps you learn.

I'm Judy.

Hello, Judy.

Hello, everyone.

I'm Jake.

How are you today, Judy?

I am great, thank you.

I made a big breakfast this morning.

Eggs, toast, and orange juice.

I feel full and happy.

And you, Jake?

I am okay.

But I have a question for you, Judy. Of course.

What is your question?

Someone told me that English has 12 tenses.

12. Is that true?

Well, yes.

English does have 12 tenses.

12. That is a big number.

How can I learn 12 tenses?

I will be studying for years.

Jake, I have good news for you.

Good news?

Please tell me.

You do not need 12 tenses.

Not now, not for a long time.

For everyday speaking, for talking to friends, ordering food, telling stories, you only need three.

Three?

Only three tenses?

Only three.

Three tenses will let you talk about anything.

Your morning, your weekend, your plans for tomorrow.

Three tenses cover your whole life.

That sounds too good to be true.

It is true.

And that is our topic today.

Oh, which three tenses?

Today, we will learn the three tenses you need to start speaking English.

I call them the present, the past, and the future.

Three tenses, three time zones.

That's all you need.

Three time zones.

I like that.

Let's learn them.

But first, we have a small request.

Thank you.

It helps us so much.

We love our listeners.

Okay, now let's start.

Before we begin, I want to explain something.

A tense is just a way to show time.

When did something happen?

Is it now?

Was it before?

Will it be later?

The tense tells the listener when.

So, a tense is like a time stamp.

It marks the time.

Yes.

Every time you speak, you are in one of three time zones.

Now, before, or later.

And today, we will learn one tense for each time zone.

Ready?

Ready.

Time zone number one.

Tense number one.

The simple present.

I call it the everyday tense.

The everyday tense.

Why that name?

Because we use this tense for things that happen every day, every week, every morning.

Habits, routines, things that are always true.

Like, I drink coffee every morning.

Yes, I drink coffee every morning.

That is simple present.

It's not about right now, it's about what you do again and again.

Your habits.

What about, she works at a hospital?

Perfect.

She works at a hospital.

That's her job.

It's true every day, not just today.

Simple present.

And it rains a lot in London.

Great example.

That's a fact.

It's always true.

Simple present.

So habits, routines, and facts.

Things that are always true.

Exactly.

Now, here's the most important rule.

For I, you, we, and they, the verb stays simple.

I eat, you eat, we eat, they eat.

Easy.

100

The verb does not change.

101

But for he, she, and it, we add S.

102

He eats, she eats, it rains.

103

Huh.

104

He eats, she works, it rains.

105

Add S.

106

Yes.

107

That little S is the only rule you need for now.

108

Let me try a few sentences.

109

I wake up at 7.

110

I eat breakfast.

111

I go to work.

112

I come home.

113

I watch TV.

114

I go to bed.

115

Jake, you just told me your whole day in simple present.

116

Six sentences.

117

That was easy.

118

Six sentences about my life.

119

See?

120

One tense and you can describe your entire routine.

121

That's the power of simple present.

122

The everyday tense.

123

I like it.

124

Now, when someone asks you, what do you do, they want simple present.

125

Not today, not yesterday day, they want your routine, your habit, your life.

126

What do you do?

127

I work at an office.

128

I teach English.

129

I study cooking.

130

All simple present.

131

Perfect.

132

And here's one more useful thing.

133

We also use simple present for facts, things that are always true.

134

The sun rises in the east.

135

Water boils at 100 degrees.

136

Cats sleep a lot.

137

Cats sleep a lot.

138

That is very true.

139

My cat sleeps all day.

140

cats do so habits routines and facts that's simple present i love it simple and useful

141

you already use this tense all the time you just did

142

not know its name tense number two the simple past i

143

call it the yesterday tense the yesterday tense for things that already happened Yes, things that are finished, done, over.

144

Yesterday, last week, last year, two minutes ago.

145

If it is finished, use simple past.

146

So, I use it to tell stories?

147

Exactly.

148

Stories, memories, things that happened.

149

I went to Paris last summer.

150

She called me yesterday.

151

We had a great time.

152

I wish I went to Paris, but okay, how do I make it?

153

For most verbs, you add ED at the end.

154

Walk becomes walked.

155

Cook becomes cooked.

156

Watch becomes watched.

157

Walked, cooked, watched.

158

Just add ED.

159

That is simple.

160

It is.

161

But some verbs are different.

162

We call them irregular verbs.

163

They change in a special way.

164

Oh no. Irregular. Do not worry.

165

There are only a few important ones.

166

Let me give you the most common ones.

167

Go becomes went.

168

Go, went.

169

I went to the store.

170

Eat becomes ate.

171

A-T-E.

181

184

186

187

Wait. Did.

188

You just said you did not.

189

Is did also simple past?

190

Yes.

191

Do becomes did.

192

Did is the past of do.

193

And we use did to make questions about the past did

194

you eat breakfast did you sleep well uh we learned this in a past episode do does

195

and did exactly now here's the best part after did the verb stays simple did you go not did you went

196

Jake, eight sentences, all simple past.

208

You just told me your whole yesterday.

209

Eight sentences.

210

That is my whole day in the past.

211

One tense and you can tell any story, any memory, any experience.

212

That is the power of simple past.

213

The everyday tense for now, the yesterday tense for before.

214

Two down, one to go.

215

Tense number three.

216

The simple future.

217

I call it the tomorrow tense.

218

The tomorrow tense for things that will happen?

219

Yes plans, dreams, predictions, anything that has not happened yet.

220

Tomorrow, next week, next year, someday.

221

How do I make it?

222

Two ways.

223

The first way is very easy.

224

Just add will before the verb.

225

I will eat.

226

She will come.

227

It will rain.

228

I will eat.

229

She will come.

230

It will rain.

231

Just add will.

232

That is the easiest rule so far.

233

It is.

234

And will works for everyone.

235

I will.

236

You will.

237

He will.

238

She will.

239

We will.

240

They will.

241

No changes.

242

No s.

243

No ed.

244

Just will plus the verb.

245

No changes at all.

246

I love this tense.

247

There's also a short form.

248

Instead of I will, people often say I'll.

249

I apostrophe LL.

250

I'll eat.

251

She'll come.

252

They'll be here soon.

253

I'll eat.

254

She'll come.

255

Shorter and faster.

256

The second way to talk about the future is going to.

257

I am going to cook dinner.

258

She is going to visit her mother.

259

We are going to travel.

260

We learned going to in an earlier episode too.

261

Yes.

262

Going to is for plans you already decided.

263

Will can be for plans, predictions, or quick decisions.

264

So, I will help you is a quick decision.

265

Right now, I decide.

266

I am going to visit Paris is a plan.

267

I decided before.

268

That's a great way to think about it.

269

But honestly, for beginners, you can use either one.

270

People will understand you.

271

Good.

272

So I can say, I will help you, or I am going to help you.

273

Both are okay?

274

Both are okay.

275

People will understand you.

276

Don't worry about the difference too much right now.

277

Just use one and start speaking.

278

Let me talk about my tomorrow.

279

Tomorrow, I will wake up early.

280

I am going to go to the gym.

281

I will eat a healthy breakfast.

282

I am going to study English for one hour.

283

And I will watch a movie in the evening.

284

Five sentences about tomorrow.

285

Simple future.

286

You can plan your whole week with this tense.

287

Next weekend, I will visit my parents.

288

We are going to cook dinner together.

289

Beautiful.

290

See, you can talk about tomorrow, next week, next year, any time in the future.

291

The tomorrow tense.

292

Easy and useful.

293

Okay, Jake.

294

Now I want you to do something special.

295

We learned three tenses.

296

The everyday tense for now, the yesterday tense for before, the tomorrow tense for later.

297

Can you use all three tenses together?

298

Tell me about one topic, coffee, in all three time zones.

299

Coffee.

300

Okay, let me try.

301

Go ahead.

302

Simple present.

303

I drink coffee every morning.

304

I like it with milk.

305

Simple past.

306

307

309

Simple future.

310

311

And I understood everything about your coffee life.

315

My coffee life.

316

Past, present, and future.

317

All about coffee.

318

And that is the point.

319

With these three tenses, you can talk about anything.

320

Your job, your family, your hobbies, your food, your weekend.

321

Three tenses cover my whole life.

322

They do.

323

And here's a tip for our listeners.

324

If you are just starting, learn them in this order.

325

First, simple present.

326

It is the easiest and you use it every day.

327

Second, simple past.

328

So you can tell stories about yesterday.

329

Third, simple future, so you can talk about your plans.

330

Present, past, future.

331

One, two, three.

332

And do not worry about the other tenses.

333

They can wait.

334

These three are enough to start real conversations.

335

What about the other tenses?

336

Will we learn them?

337

Yes.

338

In a future episode, we will learn two more tenses.

339

343

And here's one more tip.

344

When you practice, try this exercise.

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
