  Verbs can be either main verbs or auxiliary verbs. Main verbs tell what action is being performed in a sentence. Auxiliary verbs are used in combination with main verbs. They perform two major functions: 1. Auxiliary verbs indicate shades of meaning that cannot be expressed by a main verb alone. 2. Auxiliary verbs also show tense—the time at which the action of the verb takes place. Do you know the position that auxiliary verbs have in a sentence? They always come before the main verb, although sometimes another word, such as an adverb, may come between the auxiliary verb and the main verb.

  • Los verbos principales dicen qué acción está en proceso
  • Los verbos auxiliares jamás van antes del verbo principal
  • Un adverbio puede estar entre el verbo principal y el sujeto
  • Los verbos auxiliares cumplen tres funciones principales

  If nouns show number by adding -s to the plural, what do verbs do to show whether a verb is singular or plural? A long time ago, English verbs had many different endings for this purpose, but most of those endings have been dropped. Today most English verbs look the same whether the subject is singular or plural: “I talk,” “we talk,” “the men talk,” “I remembered,” “they remembered,” “the class remembered,” and so on. However, there is one place where English verbs have kept a special ending to show number. That special ending is also an -s, and the place where it is added is in the present-tense singular with the subject pronouns he, she, it and with any singular noun that could replace any of these pronouns

  • Los sustantivos denotan número al agregar -s al plural
  • En el pasado, los verbos tenían las mismas terminaciones
  • Los verbos en inglés no distinguen singular del plural
  • Se agrega “s” al verbo, si el pronombre no es he, she o it
