Right form of verbs hacks by Grammarian (Part 2) We studied some of the basics of English grammar in the previous article. Now let's dive into more lessons today. If you want to read my previous article you can read here: Just click on the link. https://read.cash/@Grammarian/right-form-of-verbs-hacks-by-grammarian-dd0f1aab Here is our first rule of grammar.There are some modal verbs. I will give you a list of those modal verbs later. So if you use modal verbs in your sentence you need to use the present from of a verb.Just keep the base form without changing anything. **Can,could,may,might,shall,should, will, would are some of the examples of modal verbs.** Now lets see some examples of modal verbs. **Mena should do the job.** **He must play.** **I can illustrate.** See above sentences have should,must,can all these verbs are modal verbs and look at the base form of the verbs. I think this rule is clear to you. Let me clear it up again to you. If you use any modal verb in your sentence than your second verb will be in present form. Now lets go to our second rule. **This rule is about when to use past form. There are some selective words.After using those words you have to use past form of the verb**. Let me clarify my statement again. You have to use verbs past form after some of the specific words. So the question is what are these specific words? **Yesterday,ago, Last day or any time like month, week, hour ,day before yesterday are the specific words.** If your sentence have these mentioned words that use the past form of verb. Now lets see an example. **Sajna came home yesterday.** **I went Australia last month.** Look closely. Can you see anything different? "Came" and "Went" are the past form of the verb "Come" and "Go" and did you notice the specific words? "Yesterday" and "Last month". I think I've made it clear to you. Now lets learn our third rule today. If you want to express something some incident that is already happened in the past and you are quite sure about that than you need to use "must have" in your sentence along with verbs past participle form. Is it clear to you? Okay if not,let me give you an example. **Jisun didn't go to market yesterday. He must have been ill.** Here as we can see Jisun didn't go to market yesterday. As he didn't go to market yesterday, the speaker is quite sure that Jesun was ill. Now let me clarify this again to you. If any event already happened in the past and you are quite sure about that to express something like that you need to use "must have" in your sentence and don't forget to use the past participle form of the verb. Now let me ask you a question. If anything already happened in the present or just happened how will you express this kind of things? In our previous rule we have learned past events. Now we will learn already happened present events or incidents. So here is how to express it. You have to follow the structure of future perfect tense. I'm telling you again any event already happened in the present and you are quite sure about that. In that case just follow the future perfect tense structure. **Jesun will have reached Peru by this time.** **You are quite sure that Jesun already reached Peru.** Here "by this time" refers to the present time.You may think that I've used future tense expressing something present. How is this possible? Yes no need to think about that.To express something that is already happened in the present time ,you can use future perfect tense. Here is the structure: **First you need to use a subject, than use shall have or will have and use the past participle form of the verb.** **Subject+ Shall have/Will have+ Past participle form of the verb.** Now lets learn our last rule of grammar today. I think this is enough today. **If you use this expressions in your sentence "let, had rather, had better, would better, do not, does not, need not or did not**" you need to use the present form of your verb. You see there is a word " had rather" it may look like to you expressing something in the past. But no! Just keep the base form or present form of your verb. Do not change it. Now lets study some of the examples: Jesun had better go home. Jesun need not go home. So here we are. If you have any questions about todays lessons you can ask me freely. I was sick yesterday. Thats why I cant continue my writing. Today I'm feeling much better and I will continue writing.

Right form of verbs hacks by Grammarian Our human body has a skeleton or you can a bone structure inside. That holds our body together and helps us to move,walk or walk. Language has the same bone structure. If you dont follow some rules and regulations you may not be able to express your words more fluently and most importantly the person you are talking to may not understand you. Another thing I must say that, yes you cant bind a language with rules. Language should be free.But this rules are not for binding language. These rules are necessary to express the right thing. You may not interested following rules in the informal English but to be precise in the formal English it is mandatory to follow certain rules. So I'm here to solve this kind of problems and to make your writing more perfect and more understanding to people. Before going to the discussion I also need to say I'm also a human just like you. If I do any mistakes please pardon my mistakes. Let's keep our hands together and learn new grammar lessons everyday. Let's start our today's lesson. Today we will learn some basic writing hacks. When we are writing,we often forget basic English grammar. Here I will talk about basics of right form of verbs. **Here goes the hack number one:** If you are writing your sentence in the present indefinite form and your subject is singular number and third person than all you need to add s/es with the verb. **So let's clarify what is singular number? Singular number refers when there is only singular or single subject.** If we take "He" and "They" as number, then "He" means one or single entity. On the other hand "They" means a bunch of people or plural entity. I think it is clear. Let me tell you this again, if your subject expresses a single entity than rule is applicable. Now lets go to person. Third person means everything without "I,We" and "You" such as "He,She,They etc" I think you are very familiar with this topic named person. Lets read it again If your subject is singular number or single entity, your subject is third person and your expressing tense is present indefinite or simple present tense than. **Lets see some examples:** **He sings in the morning.** **She plays with Rick.** **Mana loves to draw.** And the last and the least thing, if your subject is not in singular form that means if your subject is in plural form you don't need to add "s/es" with the verb. Whether your person is in third form,you don't have to. The one most basic thing we often tend to forget is use of "Does". We use "Does" with third person subject. Here is an example with "Does". **Mana does play Tennis.** Now look in our first rule I've said if the subject is third person and singular number than you need to add "s/es" with the verb. But as you can I didn't write Mana does plays tennis. Here is the explanation of this. If you use does than you dont need to add "s/es". But if you don't use "does" than add the extra words. If you write a negative sentence than you don't need to add the extra "s/es" after using does. Lets see an example of this thing too. **"Mana does not play Tennis."** Let's learn another thing today. If your sentence is in past or future form than you don't need to add extra "s/es" or does. This thing is only applicable when your sentence is in present form. The last thing if your sentence is in past form and if you use "did" than you don't need to change the verb form. The verb form will remain in the present form. Now lets look at the example too. **Mana did play Tennis.** The same thing is applicable if your sentence is in negative form. **Mana didn't play Tennis.** That's all today. I'll come again with this kind of more hacks later. Till than stay well and learn new things in every moment.
