見つける (mitsukeru) means "to find" in Japanese. Simplest present: — 見つけます (mitsukemasu). Below: all 3 tenses we teach, with examples.
Use the polite non-past form, made by dropping る from an Ichidan verb and adding ます (masu). It covers both present habitual actions and simple facts.
| — | 見つけます (mitsukemasu) |
Replace ます with ました (mashita) to talk about a completed action.
| — | 見つけました (mitsukemashita) |
Japanese has no separate future tense: the same non-past ます form is used for the future, made clear by a time word like 明日 (tomorrow).
| — | 見つけます (mitsukemasu) |
| ホテルを見つけます。 Hoteru o mitsukemasu. | I'll find a hotel. |
| 鍵を見つけました。 Kagi o mitsukemashita. | I found the key. |
