Show transcript
The verb carries the tense of a sentence. The simple tense is a tense that does not make use of an auxiliary verb with the main verb in the past and present. The progressive tense is a tense that uses an auxiliary verb from the infinitive 'to be' paired with the main verb. The progressive tense denotes ongoing action. The main verb in the progressive tense always ends with the -ing suffix.
