The present simple tense is sometimes referred to as 'the present indefinite' because it can express an action that is not necessarily happening now. The present simple can also be used to talk about the future, especially when talking about timetables or fixed arrangements. The present simple is sometimes used to express feelings or opinions that are generally true, such as 'I like ice cream' or 'it rains a lot in Seattle.'
