== Introduction ==
=== Understanding the Structure of the Present Tense ===
In this lesson, we will delve into the present tense in the South Azerbaijani language. The present tense is used to talk about actions happening now or habitual actions. It is an essential aspect of the language as it allows us to express ourselves in the present moment. We will learn how to form the present tense, understand its usage, and explore different verb conjugations.
 
The present tense in South Azerbaijani is generally used to describe actions that are currently happening or habitual actions. To form the present tense, we typically use the verb stem and add specific endings according to the subject pronoun.  


== Forming the Present Tense ==
==== Verb Conjugation Basics ====
To form the present tense in South Azerbaijani, we usually add specific suffixes to the verb stem. The suffixes vary depending on the subject pronoun and the verb type. Let's take a look at the conjugation of regular verbs in the present tense:


=== Regular Verb Conjugation ===
In South Azerbaijani, verbs are conjugated based on the subject pronoun. Here’s a quick overview of the subject pronouns and how they correspond to verb endings in the present tense:
Regular verbs in South Azerbaijani follow a predictable pattern in the present tense. We will use the verb "görmək" (to see) as an example:


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! South Azerbaijani !! Pronunciation !! English
 
! Subject Pronoun !! Verb Ending
 
|-
|-
| Mən görəm || men goh-REM || I see
 
| Mən (I) || -ir / -ar / -er
 
|-
|-
| Sən görəsən || sen goh-REH-sen || You see
 
| Sən (You - singular) || -irsən / -arsan / -ersən
 
|-
|-
| O görər || oh goh-RER || He/She sees
 
| O (He/She/It) || -ir / -ar / -er
 
|-
|-
| Biz görərik || biz goh-REH-rik || We see
 
| Biz (We) || -irik / -arıq / -erik
 
|-
|-
| Siz görəsiniz || siz goh-REH-see-neez || You see (plural/formal)
 
| Siz (You - plural/formal) || -irsiniz / -arsınız / -ersiniz
 
|-
|-
| Onlar görərlər || on-lar goh-RER-ler || They see
 
| Onlar (They) || -irlər / -arlar / -ərlər
 
|}

As you can see from the table, the verb "görmək" is conjugated differently for each subject pronoun. The verb stem remains the same, and we add specific suffixes to indicate the subject.
In this table, you can see the different endings that are used for regular verbs. Let's take a closer look at how these endings apply in some common examples.
