Wellcome to my blog, my name is RESKY DWI OCTA PRTIWI. My close friends usually call me "Iki" it's so cute. hehehe
Okay then...
I will tell you all about English. So far I know English is an international language in the world. As a bridge language for communicate with other people from other countries.
As I know English is FUN, lets learn English with happiness
Firstly ....
Let we discuss about Tenses
What is Tense?
tense (noun): a form of a verb used to indicate the time, and sometimes the continuation or completeness, of an action in relation to the time of speaking. (From Latin tempus = time).
Tense is a method that we use in English to refer to time - past, present and future. Many languages use tenses to talk about time. Other languages have no tenses, but of course they can still talk about time, using different methods.
So, we talk about time in English with tenses.
But, and this is a very big but:
- we can also talk about time without using tenses (for example, going to is a special construction to talk about the future, it is not a tense)
- one tense does not always talk about one time (see Tense & Time for more about this)
And now....
Here are the kind of tenses :
A. PRESENT TENSE
We can use this tense only on present time and to state habitual action or happen in everyday.
- SIMPLE PRESENT TENSE
- PRESENT CONTINOUS TENSE
