                            TENSES







Tenses are verb forms that indicate the time of an action or event. There are three main tenses: past, present, and future. Each of these tenses can be further divided into four aspects: simple, continuous (also known as progressive), perfect, and perfect continuous. This results in a total of twelve distinct tenses in English. 

Elaboration:

Present Tense: This tense is used to describe actions that are happening now, or actions that are generally true. It can also be used to talk about future events that are scheduled.

Past Tense: This tense is used to describe actions that have already happened.

Future Tense: This tense is used to describe actions that will happen in the future. 

Aspects of Tenses:

Simple: This aspect describes actions that are completed at a specific time. 

Continuous (Progressive): This aspect describes actions that are in progress at a specific time. 

Perfect: This aspect describes actions that were completed before a specific time in the past or are linked to the present. 

Perfect Continuous (Perfect Progressive): This aspect describes actions that have been in progress for a certain duration and are still relevant to the present or a point in the past. 

The 12 Tenses:

Simple Present: I work, she works.

Present Continuous: I am working, he is working.
