2. One for “-er”
3. One of “-ir”

equivalents in English.
As in English, it can express present habitual actions:

But, unlike English, it can also express ongoing actions:
En este momento estudiamos en la biblioteca.
Right now we’re studying in the library.
It can even express future actions:
Esta noche estudiamos para el examen.
Tonight we will study for the exam.
