Auxiliary verbs
What is an auxiliary? What is its usage? Why is it so important to clarify a tense of any statement we speak and utter?
Why?
To elucidate the auxiliary verbs, it is to be known firstly that they are function words - words that function in any type of sentence we utter. It is actually a type of closed class which is composed of words having a grammatical function as opposed to content words, which are lexical words of an open class. In summarize, an auxiliary verb is used to add functional or grammatical content to the information defined by another verb which is considered to be the main verb. Auxiliary verbs are also called helping verbs.
