Indicative
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.
Future
A2The future means the time after now. We use it to speak about plans, promises, or things we believe will happen later. In English, we often use will or be going to. For example: I will call you. She is going to study tomorrow.
Indicative Present
A1The present simple is used for things that are true now or happen regularly. It helps talk about habits, routines, and general facts, like I work or She lives here. With he, she, and it, add s to the verb. Use do and does to make questions and negative forms.
Present Perfect
A2In English, the Present Perfect connects the past with the present. It is made with have or has and a past participle. We use it for a past action that still matters now, or to talk about life experience when the time is not given.
Simple Past
A2In English, the Simple Past is a tense used to talk about finished actions in the past. It has no connection to the present. It is formed with the base verb plus -ed for regular verbs, or an irregular form. It is used in stories, news and everyday conversation.
Simple past or Past continuous
A2Use the simple past to speak about an action that started and finished in the past: “I watched TV.” Use the past continuous to describe an action that was happening at a past moment: “I was watching TV.” Very often, a short action stops or interrupts the longer one.
