presentation form of verb

• When writing, it is important to be consistent in verb tense usage.
• There are three basic forms of verb tenses: past, present, and future. Simple and Perfect forms of these verbs are also used.
• The simple form of a verb demonstrates an action that has a specific time duration.
• The action has occurred, is going on now, or will happen in the future.
• The perfect form of a verb is used to show variations in time.
• These variations include ongoing events, a sequence of events, or events that have a continued effect on a situation.
• Perfect tenses include the past, present, or future form of “have” plus the past tense form of the verb.

Each example is followed with an explanation of what the sentence means.

• Simple Past tense:

I jogged to my car.

I jogged to my car and stopped when I got there. The action occurred and ended, and no other events occurred at the same time.

• Past Perfect tense:

I had jogged to my car only to realize I forgot my keys in the office.

I jogged to my car and stopped, but another event (realizing I forgot my keys) occurred directly after the first action.

• Simple Present tense:

I jog to my car.

I jog at a certain point in time and stop. No other actions take place at this time.

• Present Perfect tense:

I have jogged to my car.

I have jogged to my car in the past and the action continues to occur; other actions may take place at the same time.

• Future tense:

I will jog to my car.

I will jog to my car in the future. The action will begin and end during a specific time period.

• Future Perfect tense:

I will have jogged to my car.

At some point in the future I will jog to my car, and other actions may occur at the same time or after the action.

Changing the bold verb to the tense indicated in parentheses:

(Notice how the verbs in the sentence are consistent in tense.)

• She talk__________ (future tense) to her professor about when her paper is due.
• Because she lived alone in an apartment building, she locks____________ (simple past) her doors every night.
• I arrive at the end of the trail and realize I jogged _____________ (present perfect) five miles.
• He got home from the grocery store and realized he spent___________ (past perfect) too much money.
• We ate ________________ (simple present) breakfast with our family every morning.
• After completing this month, I worked _________________ (future perfect) twenty-five years for this hospital.

have jogged

will have worked

You will often use progressive and conditional verb tenses in writing.

• The progressive tense is used to discuss an action that is, has, or will be in the process of occurring.
• These can found in past, present, or future tense.
• Conditional tenses are used to describe an action that depends on another action taking place.
• The word “would” is used to form this phrase.
• You will often find “if” clauses in these sentences.
• Conditional tenses are not used to make predictions or state facts.

Progressive tense:

• She was eating ice cream when her parents came home from work.

Past Progressive : The action happened in the past, and continued to happen when another action occurred.

• Your constant encouragement is helping me while I go through this difficult time.

Present Progressive : The encouragement is going on at the same time as another action, and continues to occur.

• Our professor will be giving a test next week.

Future Progressive : The action has not occurred yet, but will occur in the future at a certain point in time.

Conditional tense:

• If I were in your shoes, I would study for the test before taking it.

Provided that one condition is true (I am in your shoes), another action will occur (I would study). The action test has not occurred yet, but is going to.

• If I had a better understanding of the consequences, I would have thought more before taking action.

This is similar to the above sentence (an action would occur based on a condition), but the action has already occurred and the writer is reflecting back on it.

 _______________ My doctor will be leaving for France at the end of the month.

_______________ When the teacher turned the other way, she was cheating on the test.

_______________ I tried to tell her that if I were she, I would take the extra work hours.

_______________ You are driving me crazy by tapping your foot on the floor.

 _______________ If she knew the shoes were cheaper at the other store, she would have waited until Saturday to pick them up.

_______________ As he walked into the room, she was cleaning his mess up.

Progressive

Conditional

Sometimes in writing, it is necessary to shift verb tenses. It is important to understand how to do this so you do not confuse your reader.

Keeping a few simple things in mind, you will be able to communicate accurately a timeline of events to your reader…

• Try to stay in the same tense throughout the sentence. This includes variations of the tenses, such as simple, perfect, or progressive.
• Make the order of events clear. Perfect tenses often come before simple tenses.
• You may move forward in time within the sentence if it is necessary to change tenses (past to present or future, present to future).
• Only move backward in time if it makes sense.
• I was walking the dog when she stopped to ask me for directions.

Past progressive and past tense are illustrated here.

A continuous action (walking the dog) is interrupted by an action that occurred once (she stopped to ask directions).

• He has been playing baseball for ten years, and is still playing today. 

Past perfect and present progressive are illustrated here.

An action that began in the past (playing baseball) continues to the present (still playing).

• Susan did her homework last week, and will do it this week as well.

Past tense and future tense are illustrated here.

An action occurred once in the past, and it is going to occur again (once) in the future).

• She is writing an article about what happened during the game.

Present progressive and past tense are illustrated here.

A continuous action is occurring in the present, and something in the past is related to this event (the game).

See how the sentences are corrected:

Incorrect: My arm is hurting when I went in to see the doctor.

Correct: My arm was hurting when I went in to see the doctor.

Incorrect: I love to play the piano as a young girl, and continue to play as an adult.

Presentation Transcript

Three important forms Verbs in English have different forms which are used in the construction of tenses. • Three of the most important forms of any verb are • the base form: the “name” of the verb (e.g. be) • the past tense form: used in the simple past tense (to be discussed in just a minute) • the past participle form used in perfect tenses (to be discussed in just two minutes!)

The base form The base form of the verb is the “dictionary listing” form, e.g. be or have. • Most verbs also use the base form as one of the present tense forms of the verb • for instance, have is not only the base form of the verb but also a simple present tense form.

The past tense and past participle forms Fortunately, most English verbs have a single form that is used as both the simple past tense and also the past participle forms. In the case of regular verbs, this is the -edform. For example - the the past form of alarm is alarmed. The lion’s roar alarmed the child. - the past participle form is also surprised. The lion’s roar has alarmed several adults, too. The parents comforted their alarmed child.

The past and past participle forms 2 A number of irregular verbs also have the same past tense and past participle form. These irregular forms are unpredictable and must be learned by heart. For example, the past tense of sweep is swept. She swept the floor thoroughly. The past participle form of sweep is also swept. The floor has been thoroughly swept. The swept floor made the room look much more inviting.

Simple present and past tenses • Simple Present: used to show actions, states or events that are true in general • Water boils at 100C. • Also used to show habits. • I drink coffee but Sarah drinks tea. • Simple Past: Used to express an action, event, or state occurring at a time in the past. • The time can be general or specific. • I wanted a muffin. (general) • I wanted a muffin for breakfast this morning. (specific)

Progressive present and past tenses • Present Progressive: used to show actions or events in progress at the moment. The event is not finished. • The form is be (present form) + verb-ing • John is looking for a new bike. • We don`t usually use the progressive with non action verbs: • I want a new iPod. NOT I`m wanting a new iPod. • Past Progressive: Used to express an action that was in progress at a time in the past. • The form is be (past form) + verb-ing • She was sleeping when the baby started to cry.

Perfect present and past tenses Present Perfect: used to show actions that started sometime in the past (time is not important). • Some actions may continue in the present time and some may be completed. • The form is have + past participle verb • I have lived in Ottawa for 2 years. (continuing) • She has eaten at that restaurant. (completed) Past Perfect: Used to express and action that is finished at a time in the past. The time is not important. • The form is had + past participle verb • Tom had finished eating when his friends arrived.

Perfect progressive present and past tenses Present Perfect Progressive: Used to show actions that started sometime in the past (time is not important) and are continuing in the present. • The action is not yet finished. • The form is have + been + verb-ing • They have been working with the government since 2006. Past Perfect Progressive: Used to show that an action was in progress in the past until another action interrupted it. • Used to tell the duration or length of time of the first event. • The form is had + been + verb-ing • She had been working (in progress) for five hours before she took a coffee break (interruption).

Future tenses • Although future tenses are not used frequently in academic writing, they will be covered briefly below. • Simple Future: Used to show that an event will occur at a time in the future. • The form is: will + verb • Valerie will go to Spain next month. • Future Progressive: Used to describe an activity that will be in progress at a time in the future. • There are two forms: will + be + verb-ing be going to + be + verb-ing • He will be taking a psychology course next month.

Future Perfect: Used to express an activity that will be completed before another time or event in the future. • There are two events. The first event is expressed in future perfect. The second event is expressed in simple present. • By the time you read (second event) my email, I will have been to Japan (first event). Future Perfect Progressive: shows an action that will be in progress before another time or event in the future. It emphasizes the duration of the event. • The form is: will + have been + verb-ing • When Professor Jones retires next month, he will have been teaching for 45 years.
