1 VERBS ACTION OR LINKING AUXILIARY (= HELPER) 4 PRINCIPAL FORMS SIMPLE TENSES PERFECT TENSES PROGRESSIVE TENSES PERFECT PROGRESSIVE TENSES

2 THERE ARE 2 MAIN CATEGORIES INTO WHICH VERBS MAY BE DIVIDED: ACTION AND LINKING. Action verbs express action: either mental or physical. The subject of the sentence performs the action described by the verb in such situations. Linking verbs are used to link the subject to the predicate word (either the p.n. or the p.a.).

3 ACTIONLINKING Forms of “BE” am, is, are, was, were, will be, been, being VERBS Verbs Expressing Condition look, smell, feel, sound, taste, grow, appear, become, seem, remain

4 AUXILIARY VERBS These are also called helping verbs when they are part of a verb phrase. Some auxiliary verbs can also be used as the main verb in certain situations. Common Auxiliary Verbs: –be (am, is, are, was, were, will be, been, being) –have (have, has, had, will have) –do (do, does, did) –can, could, shall, should, will, would, may, might, must

5 THE 4 PRINCIPAL FORMS OF A VERB Every verb has 4 principal forms: –the present tense – the present participle –the past tense –the past participle Participles ALWAYS need a helper. They may never function alone as a verb phrase. These 4 parts are used to make all of a verb’s tenses and forms. –He looks at the sky every night. (present tense) –He is looking for answers to his questions. (A helper and a present participle were used to form a verb phrase in a particular tense.)

16 TENSES Tense indicates when an action occurred. We will learn several different tenses: simple, perfect, progressive, and perfect progressive. SIMPLE TENSES : past, present, future. You know these already since they are the most commonly used tenses. Conjugate a verb to see its form(s) in any of the simple tenses.
