Hi Kevin! I have crossed out or highlighted any pure grammatical errors. The numbers in parentheses indicate phrases that are not grammatically incorrect, but have multiple variations, which I have listed at the bottom:
Simple Present/ Present Progressive/ Simple Past
Simple Present: He learns English every day. (1)He doesn't learn English always. (2)Does he learn English often?
I have to use the Simple Present if I like to write something which is repetitive, if something happen in the present or in a general statement.
signal words are: every day, sometimes, always, often, usually, seldom, never, (3)first... then
Present Progressive: He's now learning English. (4)He's not learning English at the moment. Is he learning English?
I have to use Present Progressive if the action is at the moment I'm speaking or writing.
signal words are: now, at the moment, Look!, Listen!
Simple Past: Yesterday I saw a great film. (5)In 1996, I was borned ( I think "born" is more correct.) in Fulda.
Did I wrote the last sentence right?
I have to use the Simple Past if an action started in the past and is ended.
signal words: last..., ... ago, ..., in 1990, yesterday
(1) It sounds more natural to say: He doesn't always learn English.
(2) You can also use: "Does he often learn English?" However, both variations sound natural.
(3) the "first...then" construction in English does not indicate repetition. It indicates causality. "If I first do something....then that will cause me to do something else."
(4)If you really want to stress that he is not learning English, you can use: "At this moment he is not learning English." However, they both sound natural in English.
(5)Unlike in German, it sounds very unnatural to mention the year at the beginning of the sentence when stating when you were born. Such sentences almost always begin with: "I was born..." the rest of the sentence can either be the year or the pace you were born in. If you want to mention both, it sounds more natural to say "I was born in (year) in (place)." For Example, I would say: "I was born in 1981 in Eugene, Oregon." However, I think there will be different opinions on this between native English speakers based on their nationality and region.
#1. Always, Often, sometimes,... are Adverb of frequency. They often stand in front of Verb, behind Auxiliary Verbs and To-be. However, If you want to emphasize something, you can put them in the beginning or in the end of the sentence ( except hardly, never). For example: I love you always instead of I always love you.
(1)He doesn't learn English always. (2)Does he learn English often?
Two sentences
are ok. But it's better if you change them into:
(1)He
doesn't always learn English . (2)Does he often learn English ?
#2: Born is
an adjective, not a verb. So never say: borned! I was born is
a right answer. "in 1996" should be put in the end of this, here we
have: " I was born in 1996".
