Guide to Tense Usage in English
The tenses simply show the time of an action or state of being as shown by a verb.
Time can be split into three periods The Present (what you are doing), The Past (what you did) and The Future (what you are going to do, or hope / plan to do ).
The tenses we use to show what time we are talking about are split into the Simple, Continuous and Perfect tenses.
