English verbs come in several forms. For example, the verb sing can be: sing, sang, sung, singing or sings. This is a total of 5 forms. Not many, considering that some languages (French, for example) have more than 30 forms for an individual verb. English tenses may be quite complicated, but the forms that we use to make the tenses are actually very simple! With the exception of the verb be, English main verbs have only 3, 4 or 5 forms. Be has 8 forms. Helping verbs have even fewer forms as most of them never change.

Learning the Gujarati Verbs is very important because its structure is used in every day conversation. The more you master it the more you get closer to mastering the Gujarati language. But first we need to know what the role of Verbs is in the structure of the grammar in Gujarati.

In this lesson we look at the forms of main verbs and helping verbs followed by a quiz to check your understanding.

  • be has 8 forms: be, was, were, been, being, am, is, are

Note that in dictionaries the headword for any given verb entry is always in the base form.

Infinitive
There are two possibilities for the infinitive:
  1. base form (the 'bare infinitive')
  2. to + base form (the 'to-infinitive')
For example, sing and to sing are both infinitives. As they are identical in form to the base form, and 'to' is not part of the verb, we do not list the infinitive as a separate form.
Note that the 'to' is

NOT a preposition. It is an 'infinity marker' or 'particle'.

At school, students often learn by heart the base, past simple and past participle (sometimes called V1, V2, V3, meaning Verb 1, Verb 2, Verb 3) for irregular verbs. They may spend many hours chanting: sing, sang, sung; go, went, gone; have, had, had; etc. They do not learn these for regular verbs for one very simple reason - the past simple and past participle are always the same: they are formed by adding '-ed' to the base.

They do not learn the present participle and 3rd person singular present simple for regular or irregular verbs for another very simple reason - they never change. The present participle is always made by adding '-ing' to the base, and the 3rd person singular present simple is always made by adding 's' to the base (though there are some variations in spelling).

Note that 'have', 'do' and 'be' also function as helping or auxiliary verbs, with exactly the same forms.

We use the word 'form' to mean the 'shape' or 'writing' of the actual verb itself. Do not confuse verb forms with tenses. We use the different verb forms to make the tenses and other verb structures, but they are not the same thing.
