  3. WHY ARE THE 12 VERB TENSES IMPORTANT English verb tenses give many details about time and action. They are important in properly describing events and actions, as well as the structure in speaking and writing. Is the action finished? How long did the action happen? Was the action repeated? Did the action happen at a known or unknown time? Is the action a habit? Is the action planned or random? The Structure is usually Pronoun* Verb tense (action)
  4. SIMPLE TENSE Simple tenses usually refer to a single action. In general, simple tenses express facts and situations that existed in the past, exist in the present, or will exist in the future. Simple present : Repeated actions I drive home every day. Simple past: Completed actions Of the past I drove home yesterday. Simple future: Expected to happen on the future. I will drive home later.
  5. CONTINUOUS TENSE Continuous tenses express unfinished events. Continuous tenses are also called Progressive tenses. Past continuous: I was driving when you called. Present continuous: I am driving now. Future continuous: I will be driving when you call.
  6. PERFECT TENSE Perfect tenses express the idea that one event happens before another event. There are many tricky exceptions with the perfect tenses, which we will discuss in a future episode. The adverbs never, yet and already are common in perfect tenses. Present perfect: I have driven that road. Past perfect: I had already driven that road in the past. Future perfect: I will have driven 200 miles by tomorrow.
  7. PERFECT CONTINUOUS TENSE The perfect continuous tenses express duration, or how long? Perfect continuous tenses usually include the adverbs for or since. Present perfect continuous: I have been driving since this morning. Past perfect continuous: I had been driving for three hours before I stopped to get gas. Future perfect continuous: I will have been driving for five hours by the time I arrive.
