What is "tense"?
Tense is a grammatical feature that shows the time of an action or event in a sentence. It indicates whether something happens in the past, present, or future. For example, the word "walked" shows past action, while "walk" shows present action, and "will walk" indicates future action. Tense helps listeners or readers understand when an action takes place, allowing for clearer communication about time.
