The present tense is the most frequently used tense in Spanish and functions quite similarly to
the English present tense. The present tense is employed to express many things; mainly, it is
used to describe something that is happening either right now (the train is leaving) or in the
near future (the train leaves in an hour), to express a general truth (the train is comfortable) or
to describe a habitual action (I take the train to work every week).
