Show transcript
Both the progressive tense and perfect tense can denote present, past or future action.
The verb carries the tense of a sentence.
The progressive tense is a tense that makes use of an auxiliary verb from the infinitive 'to be' with the main verb.
The perfect tense is a tense that makes use of an auxiliary verb from the infinitive 'to have' with the main verb.
The perfect tense often refers to action that has finished whilst the progressive tense denotes ongoing action.
