In completing this unit, I have realized how complex these forms would appear to anyone who does not know English as their first/primary languag.
In some Asian countries, only one present form is used while we have four different present tense forms, each with different construction and usages! The Simple Present Tense is formed as follows: Affirmative - subject + base form of verb(+ s,es as needed); Negative -subject + au.
verb + not + base form of verb; Questions - au.
verb 'do' + subject + base form of ver.
Usages include habitual actions, facts, commentaries, directions, headlines, et.
Present Continuous Verbs are formed as follows: Affirmative - subject + au.
verb 'be' + verb + ing , .
e, the present participle); Negative - subject + au.
verb 'be' + not + present participle; Question - au.
verb 'be' + subject + present participl.
Usages for this form of the present include actions that are in progress at or around the time of speaking, very frequent actions, developing situations, background events in a present story, and reference to a regular action around a point in tim.
The Present Perfect tense is formed in the following manner: Affirmative - subject + au.
verb 'have' + past participle; Negative - subject + au.
verb 'have' + not + past participle; Question - au.
verb 'have' + subject + past participl.
Usages for the Present Perfect tense include finished actions that happened at an indefinite period of time, completed past actions in an unfinished time period at time of speaking, something that began in the past and is still true, and the description of past actions with present result.
The fourth and final present tense form is the Present Continuous Perfect Tens.
The following rules outline how this tense is formed: Affirmative - subject + au.
verb 'have' + been + verb + ing (present participle); Negative - subject + au.
verb 'have' + not + been + present participle; Question - au.
verb 'have' + subject + been + present participl.
Usages for the Present Continuous Perfect Tense are to communicate an incomplete and ongoing activity, indicating how long it has continued and to describe a recently finished activity which has a present resul.
