Explanations about the first post

Well, thank you all for the visits, 93 for the first 3/4 days isn`t that bad! As I`ve promised, I`ll explain the Verb Forms from the last comic strip:
If you really analysed the comic strip, you should have found four different Verb Forms and a Modal Verb!

On the first square: SIMPLE PRESENT AND SIMPLE PAST
On the second: PAST CONTINUOUS (IMPLIED, SINCE THE SENTENCE IS ABREVIATED)
On the third: PAST CONTINUOUS AGAIN
On the fourth: SIMPLE PRESENT AND PRESENT CONTINUOUS
On the fifth: SIMPLE PAST AND PAST CONTINUOUS
On the last: MODAL VERB WILL

Guys, the verb forms are your friends, they love you (they want you to use them), they`re here to help you express actions in details, exactly like it should be! Bear in mind that we`ve invented the verb forms, so we`re their masters, they`re our slaves.

If your intention is to emphasize an action in the present or a present habit, you can always count on the SIMPLE PRESENT!
The PRESENT CONTINUOUS will give the reader or the person listening to you the idea of continuity or duration, so you should use it whenever you decide to express an ongoing action (action in progress), an action that starts in the present and keeps going on until we don`t know when!
If you want to emphasize an action from the past, if you want to emphasize the past action itself and nothing else, go for SIMPLE PAST...
Now, if your intention is to explicit an action that has started in the past, lasted for some time and then finished before the present, you have to use the PAST CONTINUOUS.
The last square of the comic strip featured the MODAL VERB WILL...Well, modal verbs are a bit different, we shall explore them very soon here, but I won`t leave you without an explanation: WILL is a modal verb that expresses INEVITABILITY or CERTAINTY, so whenever you feel like emphasizing something 100% sure, go for the modal WILL, it`s the most appropriate option.

I hope you`ve enjoyed and understood the explanations, the closer you get to verb forms, the more you should wish to be accurate when picking one to use!

Enjoy your weekend! See ya monday with the next post!
Cheers!
