Helping verbs or auxiliary verbs combine with other verbs to form verb phrases.
The primary auxiliary verbs are: be / have / do
The modal auxiliary verbs are: will / can / may / shall / must
They combine with main verbs to form the various tenses eg:
present/past continuous: is walking / was walking
past/present perfect: have seen / had seen
past/present perfect continuous: have been waiting / had been waiting
future: will go
Modal auxiliarys show:
obligation: must go
ability: can climb
possibility: can see
permission: can use
prediction: will rain
and other uses.
is, am, are, was, were be, being, been, have, has, had do, does, did shall, will, should, would may, might, must can, could They're helping verbs. They help. They help make the tenses.
Helping verbs are typically intransitive because they do not require a direct object to make sense in a sentence. They function to help the main verb in expressing tense, mood, or aspect.
The word 'you' is not a verb. The word 'you' is a pronoun.The pronoun 'you' is a personal pronoun, a word that takes the place of a noun (or nouns) for the person (or persons) spoken to.A verb is a word for an action or a state of being.Examples:The teacher gave you a good grade. (the verb is 'gave')You are doing well in that class. (the verb is 'are doing'; the helping verb is 'are')I can make lunch for you. (the verb is 'can make'; the helping verb is 'can')
Helping verbs are found before a main verb in a sentence, helping the verb to make it a progressive sentence.In a Past progressive sentence: He was going to the park."Was" is the helping verb.In a present progressive sentence: I am going to the park."Am" is the helping verb.In a future progressive sentence: She will be going to the park."Will" and "Be" are the helping verbs.Helping verbs:isamarewaswerebebeingbeenhashavehaddodoesdidshallwillshouldwouldmaymightmustcancouldare words that "help" the verb, such as:She had run into the woods.'Had' is the helping verb, while 'run' is the action (main)verb. If you left out the word 'had', the sentence would be "She run into the woods", which would then be grammatically incorrect.Now, if the sentence was "She ran into the woods" the helping verb 'had' would then cause the sentence "She had ran into the woods" to be grammatically incorrect.A good way to remember this is to try the sentences with the proper verb tense and then try it with the wrong verb tense. That should help you distinguish the correct form from the incorrect one.A helping verb does not have to occur immediately before a main verb -- it can also occur before another helping verb. In "She will have been going to the park", there are three helping verbs: "will" (a modal auxiliary), "have" (the perfect auxiliary), and "been" (the perfect participle form of the progressive auxiliary). And all three of these can also occur with yet another auxiliary verb: the passive be, as in "She will have been being followed for hours."Also, "helping verbs" can occur independently, with no verb that they help. We can tell this because auxiliary verbs, unlike true verbs, can be inverted in yes-no questions: "Will she go?/Has she gone?/Is she going?", and the auxiliaries "have", "be" are still inverted, even when they have no following main verb: "Is she here?/Have you any wool?".
