Study Notes
Tenses Overview
- Present tense describes actions happening currently or habitual actions.
- Past tense refers to actions that have already occurred.
- Future tense indicates actions that will take place later.
Examples of Tenses
- A sentence using the past tense typically has verbs ending in -ed or irregular forms, such as "walked" or "went."
- Present tense sentences often use base form verbs or the -s form for third-person singular, for example, "She walks."
- Future tense commonly employs phrases like "will" or "going to" to express upcoming actions, e.g., "He will go."
Correct Usage
- Sentences need to match their tense with correct verb conjugation and context.
- Present tense needs to consistently reflect ongoing situations or repeated actions.
- Future tense should clearly signal that an action is yet to happen, differentiating from present and past.
