(The word have is part of the verb have; the main verb is enjoy.)Some sentences have several helping words:I have been enjoying my job. (The word have is a part of the verb have; the word been is a part of the verb be.)English also has a group of words called modal verbs which can serve as auxiliary verbs. These are words like: will, would, can, could, may, might, shall, should.Modal verbs can be used with a main verb or with other helping words to slightly change the meaning or time of the main verb.Examples:I will enjoy the movie.
