A bit of grammar: Present simple vs. Present Continuous

Try this exercise to learn about the difference between the present simple and the present continuous.

Remember:
- present simple: habits and routines
- present continuous: actions happening now or in the near future

Be careful! Some verbs are not used in the present continuous: want - like - smell - see - know - understand - love - hate - remember
