3 Form Of Verb

Posted on

There are up to five forms for each verb: root, third-person singular, present participle, past, and past participle. Root Form of the Verb The root form of a verb is the base form of the word. Roots have not been conjugated and do not include prefixes or suffixes. The root form of the verb is the same as the infinitive form with “to” removed. See the examples below: to see – see to be – be to wear – wear to go – go The root form of a verb is used to create other forms of the verb when conjugated. This is always true with regular verbs, but may not apply with irregular verbs, depending on the tense.

The examples below illustrate this concept. He had eaten three hamburgers.
