Introduction to Auxiliary Verbs
Auxiliary verbs, also called helping verbs, include words like 'be,' 'have,' and 'do.' They are used with main verbs to form different tenses, questions, and negatives. For example, in the sentence 'She is running,' the word 'is' helps to form the present continuous tense. Similarly, in 'They have finished their homework,' the word 'have' helps to show perfect tense. Recognizing auxiliary verbs helps in understanding sentence structure and tense usage.
