VERB TENSE

nooong high school ako napagaralan ko tungkol sa mga present tense ,past tense, future tense, lahat ng tense ngayon babalik na naman ako kasi tagal na rin kinalawang ang ang utak ko....


I will briefly review the present tense. Then you will learn about another form for the present tense, followed by past and future.

Present Tense

The present tense is just as you have learned. You take the dictionary form of a verb, drop the 다, add the appropriate ending.

먹다 - 먹 + 어요 = 먹어요

마시다 - 마시 + 어요 - 마시어요 - 마셔요.

This tense is used to represent what happens in the present. I eat. I drink. It is a general term for the present



~고 있어요.

It is quite simple. You take the verb from the dictionary form, drop the 다 and you are left with the stem. You add 고 있어요 to the verb stem and that is all! This will form a present tense of the verb of something that is currently happening. To form the casual style, you would just add 고 있어.

밥을 먹고 있어요 - I'm eating rice

우유를 마시고 있어요 - I'm drinking milk
 
반바지를 입고 있어요 - I'm wearing shorts

Past Tense

Past tense is another easy verb tense.

1.Take the dictionary form, drop the 다

2.Add the ending 어 or 아, which makes it the casual form (everything but the 요 at the end)
 
3. Add ㅆ under the last syllable

4. Add 어요 on the end.

먹다

먹 + 어 - 먹어

먹어 + ㅆ - 먹었

먹었 + 어요 = 먹었어요.
 
마시다

마시 + 어 - 마셔

마셔 + ㅆ - 마셨

마셨 + 어요 = 마셨어요

가다
가 + 아 - 가

가 + ㅆ - 갔

갔 + 어요 = 갔어요

밥을 먹었어요 - I ate rice.

텔레비전을 봤어요 - I watched tv.

학교에 갔어요 - he went to school.
 
뭐 했어요? - What did you do?

If you wish to say something you 'currently' were doing something in the past (say you were saying something happened while you were doing something..'currently' isn't exactly the word, because it's not current..but it was current)...
Then you can use the form from above and make 있어요 past tense - 있었어요

밥을 먹고 있었어요 - I was eating rice.

텔레비전을 보고 있었어요 - I was watching tv



Take the verb base, 먹 for our example using 먹다.

Attach (으)ㄹ 거에요 to the verb base. If the base ends in a consonant, you attach 을 거에요.

 If it ends in a vowel, you attach ㄹ 거에요.

난 먹을 거에요 - I will probably eat.

난 갈 거에요 - I will probably go.

비가 올 거에요 - It will probably rain.


*One thing to keep in mind. Remember back to when you learned some irregular verb cases? 듣다 being one.

It appears as 듣다 in the dictionary form, and 들어요 when conjugated?

 Well, when using this for these few special verbs, use the ㄹ ending on the base and not the ㄷ. 들을 거에요 Will listen.


Also, remember how some verbs pick up a ㅂ and sometimes not? Example - 춥다...well, in this case, it will not take the ㅂ, but will pick up an 우. 추울 거에요 Will probably be cold.
