As far as I know all languages have aspects, which are past, present and future. Sadly, if you're learning (or teaching) English life is not that easy.
The past aspect has 4 tenses:
past simple
past continuous
past perfect
past perfect continuous
The present aspect has 4 tenses:
present simple
present continuous
present perfect
present perfect continuous
The future aspect has 6:
'timetable' future
'diary' future
'going to' future
future 'will'
future perfect
future perfect continuous
But then you have the modals which talk about future possibilities / probabilities.
I'm sure I haven't remembered everything but as you can see, eight doesn't even come close.
What else can I help you with?
