1. What is present tense, past tense, and future tense?
- The present tense (abbreviated prs) is a grammatical tense whose
principal function is to locate a situation or event in present time.[1] The term
"present tense" is usually used in descriptions of specific languages to refer
to a particular grammatical form or set of forms; these may have a variety of
uses, not all of which will necessarily refer to present time. For example, in
the English sentence My train leaves tomorrow morning, the verb form leaves
is said to be in the present tense, even though in this particular context it
refers to an event in future time. Similarly, in the historical present, the
present tense is used to narrate events that occurred in the past. The past
tense (abbreviated PST) is a grammatical tense whose principal function is to
place an action or situation in past time. In languages which have a past
tense, it thus provides a grammatical means of indicating that the event
being referred to took place in the past. Future tense is a tense expressing
an action that has not yet happened or a state that does not yet exist.
2. What is present perfect tense, past perfect tense, and future perfect tense?
- The Present Perfect Tense is formed with a present tense form of "to
have" plus the past participle of the verb (which can be either regular or
irregular in form).The Past Perfect Tense indicates that an action was
completed (finished or "perfected") at some point in the past before
something else happened. This tense is formed with the past tense form of
"to have" (HAD) plus the past participle of the verb (which can be either
regular or irregular in form). The future perfect is a verb form or
construction used to describe an event that is expected or planned to happen
before a time of reference in the future, such as will have finished in the
English sentence "I will have finished by tomorrow."
3. What is present progressive tense, past progressive tense, and future
progressive tense?
- The present progressive tense indicates continuing action, something
going on now. This tense is formed with the helping "to be" verb, in the
present tense, plus the present participle of the verb (with an -ing ending): "I
am buying all my family's Christmas gifts early this year. The past
progressive tense indicates continuing action, something that was
happening, going on, at some point in the past. This tense is formed with the
helping "to be" verb, in the past tense, plus the present participle of the verb
(with an -ing ending): I was riding my bike all day yesterday. The future
progressive tense indicates continuing action, something that will be
happening, going on, at some point in the future. This tense is formed with
the modal "will" plus "be," plus the present participle of the verb (with an -ing
ending): "I will be running in next year's Boston
Marathon.
