From the above table we can see that :
In the
present tense there are three kinds of the verb to be : am, are, and is.
·
Am is used for the singular first person ( I ).
·
Are is used for the plural first person ( we ), singular and plural second person ( you),and plural third person ( they )
Is used for singular third person ( he or she ), and for an object ( it
)
In the past tense there two kinds of the verb to be : was and were.
- was is used for the singular first person ( I ) and singular third person ( He or She ) and for an object ( It ).
- were is used for the plural first person ( We ), plural second person ( You ) , and plural third person ( They ).
in the future tense, a modal verb ( will ) precedes the verb be for all the subjects. in present perfect tense, a helping verb ( have or has ) predeces the word been ( third form of the verb be ). have is used for the subject I, You, We, and They, whereas Has is used for the subject He, She, and It. Meanwhile, for the past perfect tense, all the subjects use the past form of the helping verb ( had ) followed by word been ( third form of the verb be ).
examples :
- The price of fertilizers is expensive.
- I am a first year student of agricultural faculty, University of Jambi.
