Fill in the gaps with right forms of verbs
Master the Right Form of Verbs for exams like SSC, HSC, or competitive tests with these 5 essential rules. They serve as the foundation for sentence building and fill-in-the-blank grammar questions. [1, 2, 3]
1. Subject-Verb Agreement
A verb must agree with its subject in number and person. [1]
  • Rule: A singular subject takes a singular verb; a plural subject takes a plural verb.
  • Example: Shahin is a meritorious student.
  • Example: Vehicles create traffic jams. [1, 2]
2. The Influence of Modal Verbs
Modal auxiliaries modify the mood of verbs. [1, 2]
  • Rule: After modal verbs (shall, should, will, would, can, could, may, might, must, need, dare), always use the base form (V1) of the verb.
  • Example: You may come tomorrow.
  • Example: I can do the work. [1, 2]
3. Time Markers in a Sentence
Specific adverbs indicate the exact tense required. [1]
  • Rule: If a sentence contains words indicating general or habitual time (always, regularly, daily, sometimes, generally), it takes the Present Indefinite Tense.
  • Example: The sun sets in the west.
  • Example: Sabiha learns her lessons regularly. [1]
4. Following Prepositions
Prepositions connect nouns or pronouns to other words and demand a specific verb format. [1, 2, 3, 4]
  • Rule: Any verb placed immediately after a preposition (except "to") takes the -ing form (gerund).
  • Example: Television is an important source of entertaining.
  • Example: Children are fond of using mobile phones. [, 2]
5. "It is Time" and "It is High Time"
These phrases express that an action should already have been done. [1]
  • Rule: When "It is time" or "It is high time" is used, the verb immediately following the subject must be in the Past Indefinite Tense (V2).
  • Example: It is time we developed our country.
  • Example: It is high time we started studying properly. [1, 2]
