Tenses are very important to get your English sentences right without any grammatical error. Tenses can either be in past, present or future form. Past tense is indicating something which had happened in the past. Example: She wore a blue dress. ‘Wore’ is a verb which is in past tense form. Present tense is indicating something which is happening in the present. Example: George writes letters. ‘Writes’ is a verb which is in present tense form. Future tense is indicating something which will happen in the future. Example: She will wear a blue dress to the party. ‘Will wear’ is a verb which is in future tense form.
