Conjugation

The conditional explains what happens when one thing depends on another. For a real possible result, use if plus the present, then will plus the verb: If it rains, I will stay home. For an unreal present idea, use would: If I had time, I would help.

The imperative is the verb form used to give an order, a direction, or a request. We use the basic form of the verb, for example: “Sit” or “Open the door.” For a negative form, we say “do not” or “do not run.” The subject “you” is not spoken, but it is understood.

In English, “improvising” means making or doing something without a set plan. You create it at the moment, as ideas come. In conjugation, it appears in forms like “I am improvising.” This shows an action that is happening now or around the present time.

The indicative is the verb form used to talk about real things. It helps us give facts, describe actions, and say what happens or happened. For example: “I work”, “She is happy”, “They went home”. It is not used for wishes, ideas, or doubt.

Non-personal forms are verb forms that do not name the subject. They do not change for I, you, or he. They include the infinitive, like to go, the -ing form, like going, and the past participle, like gone. We use them after some verbs, or as nouns and adjectives.

The subjunctive is a verb form we use to talk about wishes, advice, demands, or unreal situations. It often uses the basic verb form, like in “I suggest he go.” With “be,” we often say “were,” as in “If I were you.” It is more common in formal English.
