Grammar

GRAMMAR rules for using “will” in English

“Will” is a modal auxiliary verb, meaning that there is no “s” on the third person singular conjugations. The main verb in the sentence is in the infinitive form (without “to”). The negative form is “will not” which is usually contracted in spoken English and we say “won’t”. Similarly “will” is sometimes contracted to “‘ll” when speaking.

 

GRAMMAR: The present continuous be+verb+-ing

All these sentences use the present continuous tense: be + main verb + -ing.

I am watching a film.

Tom is doing his homework.
Rachel and Jim are playing videogames.

Laura is wearing blue clothes.

 

GRAMMAR: The Present perfect

The present perfect is formed from the present tense of the verb have and the past participle of a verb.

We use the present perfect.
