No sentence can be made without subject and verb. Verb always comes right after subject. There are four forms of verbs. All forms have their own name; name presents their use in sentence.

1st form of verb is called present verb. It is used in every present’s sentence. Verb followed by ‘to’ is 1st form of verb always.

2nd form of verb is called past verb. It is used in every past’s sentence. One 2nd form of verb can only be used in single sentence.

3rd form of verb is called past participle. It is used in past, present and future all situations.

4th form of verb (1st form + ing) is called progressive. It is used in progressive (continuous situation). Here are some words after which we always use 4th form of verb in case verb comes: for, of, after, before, in, on, at and from.

‘Ability’

Whenever we mention someone’s ability and capacity, we use word ‘CAN’.

(Subject + Can + 1st form of Verb + Object)

I can swim. He can understand. She can sing well. They can defeat Raman. My mother can come here to check me.

(Can + Subject + 1st form of verb + Object) Interrogative sentence

(Subject + Can’t + 1st form of Verb + Object) negative sentence

I can’t tell you beforehand. Common man can’t survive with this inflation.

‘Future’Coming time is called future. We use shall/will in future sentences. Although shall is used with I & we according to grammar yet we use ‘Will’ in spoken.

(Subject + Will + 1st form of verb + object)
