Welcome to English Spoken
Today, we will be discussing the basics of English grammar. Let's start with the subject and the verb.
Subject
A subject is the person or thing that performs the action or is being described in a sentence. It can be a
noun or pronoun
Examples of subjects: I, he, she, it, they
Examples of subject pronouns: I, you, he, she, it, we, they
Verb
A verb is the action or state of being in a sentence. It expresses what the subject is doing or what is happening to the subject.
Examples of action verbs: play, eat, run
Examples of state verbs: be, have, like
Present Tense
In the present tense, the verb agrees with the subject in terms of number and person. Here are some examples:
I am a teacher.
He is a doctor.
You are a student
Past Tense
In the past tense, the verb is usually formed by adding "ed" to the base form of the verb. Here are some examples:
I was at home.
He was at school.
They were at home.
Future Tense
In the future tense, we use the helping verb "will" before the base form of the verb. Here are some examples:
I will be happy.
You will be successful.
He will be at work.
