  A VERB is a word that shows

action or a state of being.

Every sentence needs a verb.

In fact, the verb is probably the

most important word in the

sentence. The whole meaning

of a sentence depends on

the action or state of being.

In other words, the whole

meaning of the sentence

depends on the verb!

Talking about the past The tense of a verb tells us when the action was done. The action can be done in the past, present or future.

Use the simple past form of a verb when you are talking about an action that took place at a specific point in the past and that is now finished.e.g. I kicked the ball and scored a goal.I walked the dog yesterday.I went to Florida last year. NOTE! The simple past is formed in different ways for regular and irregular verbs. For regular verbs there is a rule, but irregular verbs just have to be learned!

e.g. 'I live in London now, but I lived in France for five years' = regular simple past tense'I normally go to work by bus, but yesterday I went in the car' = irregular simple past tense

Quit

The simple presentThe tense of a verb tells us when the action was done. The action can be done in the past, present or future.                                                                                  

When do I use the present tense?

Use the present simple form of a verb when•The action takes place now.e.g. I want you to help me now. •The action is something that happens regularly.e.g. I walk the dog everyday. •You are describing things that are generally true.e.g. Train travel is expensive. NOTE! When it is 'he', 'she' or 'it' doing the action, remember to add 's', 'es' or change the 'y' to 'ies'.e.g. •I like football, we like football, he likes football. •I always try hard, we always try hard, she always tries hard. •I watch a lot of films, we watch a lot of films, he watches a lot of films. •I seem OK, we seem OK, it seems OK.

The tense of a verb tells us when the action was done. The action can be done in the past, present or future.

When do I use the future tense? There are two main ways of talking about the future. You can say:

I will work late tomorrow. = future tense I am going to work late tomorrow. = 'going to' + verb

1. Future tense This is made by 'will' or 'shall' + the verb, as in the example above 'I will work late tomorrow.'

Note that 'will' and 'shall' are often shortened.e.g.

Autumn will soon be here.It'll break if you drop it.

What will you do? I don't know what I'll do 2. Going to

'Going to' + the verb is also useful to talk about plans. It suggests that something is decided.e.g.

What are you going to do this evening?I'm going to watch a film on TV.

I think it's going to rain.He's going to play football.
