You have learnt about simple present, simple past and simple future tenses and the
present and past continuous tenses. Let’s revise them.

The simple present tense is used to talk about likes and dislikes, habits, routines and

general facts. For example,

• Lajjo lives in a village on the banks of the River Kosi. (fact)

• Lajjo loves the rain. (likes)

• Lajjo takes her doll everywhere. (habit)

The simple past tense is used to talk about actions that have been completed.
