PREFACE

Before you go through this book, it’s of course I have to say something about English as a language.

Also English has its rule to structure your view in written or spoken as all languages have.

Though the title of this book is named as ‘Tense rule’ we are to discuss here the rules of VOICE, TENSE and STATEMENT.

Because every sentence would belong to a voice, tense and statement rule.

Academically, it is said that there are 14 tenses. They are expanded as 20 tenses in this book.

What I have mentioned here additional tenses are embedded in 14 tenses in your academy pattern.

It has been clearly said in bracket in every additional tense, what each is called in academically.

I hope that studying tenses this way will make learners know understandably.

Thanks a lot.

TENSE RULES

Tense is just a rule to structure a sentence to express an action happens. There are basically 14 tenses likely followed academically is well known.

What are they?

1. Pure present tense
2. Pure past tense
3. Simple present tense
4. Present perfect tense
5. Present continuous tense
6. Present perfect continuous tense
7. Simple past tense
8. Past perfect tense
9. Past continuous tense
10. Past perfect continuous tense
11. Future tense
12. Future perfect tense
13. Future continuous tense
14. Future perfect continuous tense

But In our pattern, it is expanded into 6 more tenses such as,

15. Additional present tense (simple present tense)
16. Additional present continuous tense (present continuous tense)
17. Additional past tense (simple past tense)
18. Additional past continuous tense(present continuous tense)
19. Future in the past tense (future perfect tense)
20. Future in the past continuous tense(future perfect continuous tense)

 What are these 6 more tenses? Do they exist in Indian academy pattern? My answer is NO. But these are merged into the basic tenses of fourteen. Here, we are to study them deeply in this pattern. You need not be worried out whether this study might embarrass your academy studies but will strengthen you indeed.

To know how many tenses are there- is not a matter but in which situation they have to be used should be known, don’t they?

Instantly, let’s see some model sentences for every tense with the rule for each.
