kita ingin membuat kalimat yang menyatakan:

Pola Kalimat Simple Present:

      1. Kalimat positif:

I/you/they/we + verb 1 + Objek

                        You always come late

                        They watch movie every Saturday

                        We play badminton once a week

                        She always comes late
