Your homework is a little heavier this week, but I’ll try to lighten up next.

Here are our class notes:

Present Tense never has a helping verb.  She speaks. He speaks. They speak. We speak.

Past Tense indicates that time has passed by.  “Yesterday”   He walked. She walked. They walked. We walked.

Future Tense  indicates time has yet to occur.  It always has a helping verb.  I will run.  She will run.  He shall run.  They shall run.

 

Verbs - Transitive and Intransitive?

Transitive will have a direct object.  Transitive = D.O. - She busted the vase.

Intransitive will not have a direct object. - We charged for the laser tag facility.

Indirect Objects receives some Direct Objects.

                      I.O.     D.O,

If there is an indirect object, there must be a direct object.
