The Present Indefinite Tense is the tense that denotes the habit-showing actions that are not clearly defined or stated. For example: -
1. Dogs bark at night. 2. We see with our eyes. 3. We hear with our ears. 4. A cow gives us milk.
Clarification: All the sentences [1,2,3,4] show that dogs, we, and cow are not necessarily presently active at work as define; but they all have the habit of barking, seeing, hearing, and giving to the state respectively.
When it comes to tenses, like past, present and future: The simple present or present simple is one of the two present tenses used in modern English, the other being Present continuous.
