Saya akan melanjutkan tulisan tentang Structure of the English, pada tulisan sebelumnya telah dikatakan bahwa struktur kaliamat dalam sebuah kalimat dalam bahasa inggris sangatlah menentukan apa yang kita maksudkan, maka dari itu saya aka menyampaikan bentuk dasar dan bentuk sederhana dari kalimat yang menyatakan kejadian tersebut sudah terjadi/ lampau, kejadian yang sedang terjadi, maupun kejadian yang akan kita lakukan, let’s check this out guys
Simple past, Present Continuous and future tense are the base structure of the language if we want to learn English well, its will be describe what you have done, what are you doing, and what will you do. For simple example is what you have done, it use Simple Past Tense, I will describe it more bellow.
1. Simple Past Tense
Simple Past Tense has function in Bahasa we call it as Waktu Lampau Sederhana, it is used to describe the moment(s) when it was done at the past. These are the example of the structure,
· My uncle went to Denpasar Yesterday
· Last week my friend got the big fist at the sea
From the example above we can analysis why those are used went and got. Both of two sentence are used Simple Past Tense, we can see the time of the sentence, the first sentence Yesterday (Kemarin in Bahasa) as a time and the second sentence use last week (Satu minggu yang lalu in Bahasa), it means the speaker say the past moment, so we have to use Simple Past Tense. Simple Past Tense has Formula/ structure
If we put the formula/ structure, we found what we are looking, at the first sentence My Uncle as the Subject, and Went is the Verb 2nd form, which Get is the Verb 1st form of the Go, and yesterday is the time when the subject does the activity. And for the second sentence it has same point like the first sentence, but position of time on the sentence make both sentence difference, but its still have the same meaning, to describe past moment. My Friend as a subject, and got the 2nd form of the Get.
2. Present Continuous Tense
Present Continuous Tense is the structure sentence for what we are doing now. The activities what we are doing has structure too if we want to tell it to someone, like you are on the way going to school, and your uncle ask you where are you go, so you have to say what are you doing at that time. Present Continuous Tense is used when you say and do something at the same time, that the simple example. More clearly to know about it, there is the structure/ form of it bellow
Subject + to be (am/is/are) + Verb-ing from
That is the form of the Present Continuous Tense, if we put it onto sentence it will be
· The Children is watching television
· Brother is reading a news paper
It is same, on the first and second sentence The Children and Brother as the Subject and the verbs are watch and read, the verb is changed to watching and reading because the form of Present Continuous Tense is plays, so we must put –ing behind the Verb 1st form. And don’t forget to put be between Subject and Verb-ing form.
3. Simple Future tense
And the last topic at this page is Simple Future TenseJ, Simple Future Tense is the easy form if we learn it, it because at the Simple Future Tense we just put will between Subject and the Verb, I will give some example for more easily to understand that concept.
· I will go to concert tonight
· She will move to Negara tomorrow
From those examples we can see the base concept of Simple Future Tense, the concept/ formula is
Subject + will +Verb 1st from
We just fill will and we do not have to change the verb like simple past and put to be like present continuous tense. This structure used for the sentence what will we do/ we have plan and wan to do it, so we must use it to say.
