The time, compared to the time of speaking or writing, of the action or state of being expressed by the verb, that is, present, past, or future. 2. Whether the action or state of being described in item 1 above is, at the time stated in item 1: complete, as in a perfect tense; definitely ongoing, as in a progressive tense; or may be either complete or ongoing, as in a simple tense. 3.
