verb tenses

Introduction

We will learn grammar, in order to give understanding using grammar in english leraning.
firstly, we need to know what grammar is it.

What is Grammar?

Grammar is the system of a language. People sometimes describegrammar as the "rules" of a language; but in fact no language hasrules*. If we use the word "rules", we suggest that somebody createdthe rules first and then spoke the language, like a new game. Butlanguages did not start like that. Languages started by people makingsounds which evolved into words, phrases and sentences. Nocommonly-spoken language is fixed. All languages change over time. Whatwe call "grammar" is simply a reflection of a language at a particulartime.

Do we need to study grammar to learn a language? The short answer is"no". Very many people in the world speak their own, native languagewithout having studied its grammar. Children start to speak before theyeven know the word "grammar". But if you are serious about learning aforeign language, the long answer is "yes, grammar can help you tolearn a language more quickly and more efficiently." It's important tothink of grammar as something that can help you, like a friend. Whenyou understand the grammar (or system) of a language, you canunderstand many things yourself, without having to ask a teacher orlook in a book.

Englishrequires a thorough understanding of how verbs are used. Even the bestspeakers and writers sometimes have some troubles in choosing theappropriate or correct form of a verb for a sentence. For an instance,how often have you heard "I sung the song" instead of "I sang thesong"?   But, we first have to know what a verb is.

Conclusion

There are three main categories of time: Present, Past and Future. The Tenses of Verbs allows us to express time within these categories in a variety of ways. These actions could be done during the conversation, before or after another action and even continously doing the action. This enables us to understand when the action had happend in this time-bound world.

     Without these tenses of the verbs, we would never understand each other like the way we do today. The time of an action is relevant for it has been part of our daily living. In simple conversations we use these different verbs thus it is a must that we too should be aware of the diffrent tenses of the verb for better communication and understanding.
