Tenses
Verb Tenses
Verbs come in three tenses: past, present, and future.
The
past is used to describe things that have already happened (e.g., earlier
in the day, yesterday, last week, three years ago). The present tense is
used to describe things that are happening right now, or things that are
continuous. The future tense describes things that have yet to happen
(e.g., later, tomorrow, next week, next year, three years from now).
The following table illustrates the proper use of verb
tenses:

Simple Present |
Simple Past |
