TYPES OF VERBS.

TYPES OF VERBS. 

Needless to say that it is so important.

If there is no verb,  that is not a sentence.

What is verb?
Every sentence has a verb,and gives an action to it.

(Capitalised are verbs)
When did you FINISH it?
I AM Mahendiran.
I am TEACHING Grammar.
How do you DO?
SWITCH ON your mobile phone.
Why is this guy TORTURING us?
Who IS he?

If you ask,  'How many verbs are there in English language?'
it's hardly to answer.

Millions of verbs are there, we use some thousands or hundreds, that's all.

Anyway, every verb functions as four forms. Such as
PRESENT FORM (V1) Eg. WRITE.
PAST FORM (V2) Eg. WROTE.
PAST PARTICIPLE FORM (V3) Eg. WRITTEN.
PRESENT PARTICIPLE FORM (V4) Eg. WRITING.

Any verb has four forms as seen above.
(Go to my link verb analysis slides mimseglobalenglish.blogspot.in.)

These four forms are used in different tenses with a strong support of auxiliaries.

V1 is used in all simple tenses with relevant auxiliaries. 

V2 is used only in simple past tense,affirmative without any auxiliary. 

V3 is used in all perfect tenses with relevant auxiliaries, and all tenses in Passive voice. 

V4 is used in all continuous and perfect Continuous tenses with relevant auxiliaries. Also as gerund nouns and adjectives.

The combination of Auxiliary and verb from is determining a tense. This is the core area in English.

Instantly, a learner must know the four forms of any verb, and also should know where and when to use which form with which auxiliary following the tense and voice rule.
