"Will" and "shall" are used in future tense questions, but they are not used as a direct substitution for the "will" in a statement.

In future tense questions, the auxiliary "shall" or "will" is placed before the subject.

To turn a present/past tense statement into a future tense question, change the subject-verb order and add "will" or "shall".

The verb "have" is used as a transitive verb when it is followed by a direct object.

The verb "have" is conjugated differently depending on the subject.

The past tense of "have" is "had" but it is still used in the same ways as the present tense "have".

The present tense of "have" indicates possession or a state of being.

The future tense of "have" uses "will" or "shall" to indicate that the possession or state of being will happen in the future.

Adverbs that describe actions happening regularly or habitually.

A type of verb that shows an action that is complete or done habitually (often with adverbs like 'always' or 'frequently').

Verbs that connect the subject to a description or state of being, often used with adverbs to describe the state of being.

Past tense verbs that indicate a single completed action.

Past tense verbs that indicate an action done regularly or habitually in the past.

A way to express actions that were done routinely in the past, but are not currently taking place, or are no longer true.

Indicates that someone is accustomed to or familiar with something.

Means something was true in the past but is no longer true.

A modal auxiliary verb that expresses a strong obligation or necessity.

A group of auxiliary verbs: can, could, had better, may, might, must, should, would. They are followed by a bare infinitive (without 'to')

The infinitive form of a verb without the particle 'to'.

Used to show that we have to do something, but it is not a strong obligation. It can be used in various tenses.

A strong way to express an obligation or necessity, used specifically in the present tense. It emphasizes that something must happen.

A verb that connects a subject to a word that describes or identifies it. This word can be an adjective, noun phrase, or pronoun.

A verb that takes a direct object, a word that receives the action of the verb.

Words used to describe, modify, or limit nouns or pronouns. They answer the question "What kind?" or "Which one?"

A word or group of words that names a person, place, thing, or idea.

The subject of the sentence performs the action indicated by the transitive verb.

A test for identifying whether a verb is a linking verb or a transitive verb. Replace the verb with a form of "to be" (is, am, are, was, were). If the sentence still makes sense, it was a linking verb. If it doesn't make sense, it was a transitive verb.

To become or change into something else.

To stay the same, to continue in a certain state.

A verb tense that expresses an action or state of being that is completed or habitual in the past.

A verb tense that expresses an action or state of being that is completed or habitual in the present.

The form of a verb that shows it has been completed.

An imperative sentence that allows someone or something to perform an action.

An imperative sentence that gives a direct command or order.

The verb 'to be' followed by 'not' in a sentence.

The adverb 'not' is placed between the auxiliary verb and the main verb 'to be' in negative sentences.

In questions with 'to be' or auxiliaries, 'not' follows the subject.

The verb 'to have' can be negated by placing 'not' after it, but this is less common.

A verb that connects the subject to a description or state of being.
