GRAMMAR: Verb tenses

          Let’s talk about what may or might happen! Subjunctive tense
            This is NOT a tense that you need to get tense about!
            It’s just a way to tell people that you want them to do something.
            It’s also helpful to make Commands!

Let’s talk about the HERE and NOW! Present tense

Let’s reminisce about the way life USED TO BE! Imperfect tense
You can’t identify very precisely (not "perfectly". Really quite "imperfectly") when on the timeline of your life these activities
used to take place. It was during a very fuzzy, imperfectly shaped time period (such as your childhood).
When would it have started? When might it have ended? Oh, WHO CARES?! Just DESCRIBE it for me so I can picture it!

Let’s talk about some very SPECIFIC ACTIONS that HAPPENED! Preterit tense
These actions happened at specific times that we COULD (if we wanted to) identify with perfect certainty on the
Truman Show timeline of our life. No fuzziness here. Not at all descriptive. Exciting ACTION!

Let’s talk about what WILL happen! Future tense
Psst. Don't tell anyone, but this is one of the easiest tenses going!
