2 Tiempos Verbales (Tenses)
Tense shows the time of a verb's action or being. There are three inflected forms reflected by changes in the endings of verbs. The present tense: "She is a student. She drives a new car." The simple past tense: "She was a student. She drove a new car." Unlike other languages, English does not have inflected forms for the future tense. Instead, English future forms are created with the use of auxiliaries: "She will be a student. She is going to drive a new car." English can even create the future by using the present tense, "The bus arrives later this afternoon," or the present progressive, "He is relocating to Portland later next month."

12 FUTURE INDEFINITE TENSE (Simple Future)
Se usa para indicar una acción que tiene lugar en algún tiempo definido o indefinido en el futuro: Examples: I shall see you tomorrow He will not do it They will return next week Will Betty be present at the party? We shall go there next month The girls will not sing with us Este tiempo responde al futuro simple del indicativo en castellano, y se forma con los auxiliares “Shall” (primera persona singular y plural) y “Will” (segunda y tercera del singular y plural), con la forma simple del verbo. Dejamos aclarado que estos auxiliares tienen otros usos e implicaciones.

13 Going to (Future) Este tiempo verbal se utiliza para expresar una acción que está siendo planeada y que se concretará en un futuro. Se forma utilizando el verbo To Be (am - is- are) y “Going to” como auxiliares seguido por el verbo principal que expresa la acción en infinitivo. Examples: - They are going to sit for the test next week. The student is going to see the experiment in ten minutes.

14 THE CONTINUOUS TENSES (Auxiliar To Be y Verb-ing)
Usos: Se expresa una acción que se desarrolla en el momento de hablar (“Present Continuous”), o se estaba desarrollando en determinado momento del pasado (“Past Continuous”), o estará ocurriendo en algún instante del futuro (“Future Continuous”). Dos elementos lo caracterizan: el auxiliar “To Be” en su acepción ESTAR y el participio presente (ING) del verbo que se mantiene invariable en todas las personas.

15 PRESENT CONTINUOUS PAST CONTINUOUS He is reading now He was reading at 6 (él está leyendo ahora) (él estaba leyendo a las 6) They are not eating lunch They were not eating lunch (No están almorzando) (No estaban almorzando) Are you writing with a pen? Were you writing with a pen? (¿Estás escribiendo con lapicera?) (¿Estabas escribiendo con lapicera?) FUTURE CONTINUOUS He will be reading (él estará leyendo) etc., etc., etc.

16 Present Perfect Tense Este tiempo de verbo se usa:
a) para denotar una acción o estado que se ha completado durante algún período de tiempo presente reciente, tales como “today” (hoy), “this week” (esta semana), “this month” (este mes), etc. Examples: She has not come today Have you seen Mr. White this week? I have visited the museum this afternoon

17 b) para indicar una acción o estado que tiene lugar durante un período de tiempo que dure hasta el momento de hablar. Palabras tales como “lately” (ultimamente), “recently” (recientemente), “ever” (alguna vez), “never” (nunca), etc. se usan junto con este tiempo verbal. Examples: I have never seen a U.F.O (Unknown Flying Object)   Have you ever been to London? He hasn’t spoken to me lately.

18 c) para denotar una acción que acaba de completarse:
Examples: She has just arrived I have just read the newspaper He has come at last

19 d) Cuando la acción está completada, pero no se ha expresado ningún tiempo. En este caso, el resultado de la acción puede experimentarse ahora (NOW): Examples: She has had a difficult life so far. Have you slept well? I have closed the door

20 Past Perfect Tense Se usa para indicar una acción que está completada en el pasado y es anterior a alguna otra acción pasada o a algún tiempo pasado: Examples: When I came back home, Father had left La acción de salir es anterior a la de volver He had finished his work at 8 o’clock last night We had arrived at the station before the train started Hugh had lived in Rosario for ten years When it rained they had finished the football game
