Guessing gets you through a quiz; understanding gets you through the exam. Read the full English verb tenses lesson: English has twelve main tenses, formed by combining three time frames (present, past, future) with four aspects (simple, continuous, perfect, perfect continuous). Simple tenses state facts and completed actions; continuous tenses show actions in progress; perfect tenses connect two time points; perfect continuous tenses stress duration. Together they let a speaker locate any action precisely in time.
