Question

What is the difference between verb form and verb tense?

I have a quiz on sentence correction, and I don't know how to tell if the error is verb form or tense. Can someone explain the difference to me thoroughly?

Answer 1

The Difference Between Verb Form And Verb Tense Is
Verb Form Is Use To Describe Finite Verb forms,nonfinite forms and catenas But Verb Tense
Is Use To Describe Past,Present And Future

Explanation:

Verb Form:
Finite verb forms such as go, goes and went
Nonfinite forms such as (to) go, going and gone
Combinations (catenae) of such forms with auxiliary verbs, such as was going and would have gone

Verb Tense :
Verbs come in three tenses: past, present, and future. The past is used to describe things that have already happened (e.g., earlier in the day, yesterday, last week, three years ago). The present tense is used to describe things that are happening right now, or things that are continuous.
