The present simple is the tense used to express permanent situations or events that
regularly repeat or always occur. When expressed in its negative form, the verb denies
something about the subject.(El presente simple es el tiempo que se usa para expresar situaciones
o eventos permanentes que se repiten regularmente o que siempre ocurren . Cuando se expresa en
su forma negativa, el verbo niega algo sobre el sujeto.)
