tense and the importance of verb in a sentence that tells us about what tense is it?
To add a little more detail, I wish to add herein that English has only two kinds of tenses. These are Past and Non- Past tense. This non-past tense includes both the present and the future tense. Yet there are certain languages which do not have tenses. They are called Tenseless languages.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

InterjectionsInterjections
6. • A noun is often defined as a word which names a
person, place,thing or idea. Here are some examples
of nouns: boy, river, friend, Mexico, triangle, day,
school, truth, university, idea, John F. Kennedy,
movie, aunt, vacation, eye, dream, flag, teacher,
class, grammar. John F. Kennedy is a noun because
it is the name of a person; Mexico is a noun
because it is the name of a place; and boy is a noun
because it is the name of a thing.
7. • Some grammar books divide nouns into 2
groups - proper nouns and common nouns.
Proper nouns are nouns which begin with a
capital letter because it is the name of a
specific or particular person place or thing.
Some examples of proper nouns are: Mexico,
John F. Kennedy, Atlantic Ocean, February,
Monday, New York City, Susan, Maple
Street, Burger King. If you see a word
beginning with a capital letter in in the
middle of a sentence, it is probably a proper
noun. Most nouns are common nouns and
do not begin with a capital letter.

9. COLLECTIVE NOUN
• They are words that refer to groups of
people, animals, or things each
regarded as one whole.
• Examples:
• Team, crowd, class, flock, army, family,
etc
10. ABSTRACT NOUNS
• These are not concrete nouns like other
categories. They refer to things, ideas
that have no physical existance ie they
cannot be touched.
• Examples:
• Beauty, truth, health, happiness etc
11. COUNTABLE NOUNS
Countable nouns are the names of
objects, people, etc. that we can count
Example:
Book, pen, apple, boy, sister etc
12. UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS
• These are the names of the things
which we cannot count.
• Example
• Milk, oil, sugar, gold, honesty
13. Verbs
A verb is often defined as a word which shows
action or state of being.
He rode the horse to victory.
He has been sick
15. • Recognizing the verb is often the most
important step in understanding the
meaning of a sentence. In the sentence The
dog bit the man, bit is the verb and the word
which shows the action of the sentence. In
the sentence The man is sitting on a chair,
even though the action doesn't show much
activity, sitting is the verb of the sentence.
In the sentence She is a smart girl, there is
no action but a state of being expressed by
the verb is. The word be is different from
other verbs in many ways but can still be
thought of as a verb.
16. Types of verbs
• Verbs can be classified, according to their function,
into ordinary and auxiliary verbs.
• Ordinary verbs: they are the verbs that can be
conjugated and have different forms
• Example
• Play, eat, read, clean etc
• Some have three forms: cut cuts cutting
• Some have four forms: help, helps,helping,helped
• Some have five forms
write, writes, wrote, written,writing
• And only one verb be has eight forms
• Be, am, is, are, was, were, been, being
17. AUXILARY VERBS
• They are the verbs that help ordinary verbs.
They are of two types
1. Primary Aux.
• The primary aux. can be used as an ordinary
verb( as the only verb in a sentence), and can
be used as a helping verb ( with an ordinary
verb).
• I am here.
• I am studying.
• Be, is, am, are, was, were, being, have, has,
had, do, does, did
18. 2. Modal
The modal aux. are: can, shall, will, may,
might, must, need, dare, used to, ought
to
19. Relationship between
time and verbs
• One of the most important things about
verbs is their relationship to time. Verbs tell
if something has already happened, if it
will happen later, or if it is happening now.
For things happening now, we use the
present tense of a verb; for something that
has already happened, we use the past
tense; and for something that will happen
later, we use the future tense
21. Regular Verbs:
• The great majority of English verbs are
regular; that is, they have four forms:
• The base (the uninflected or unchanged
form) play
• The—s form
plays
• The—ing form
playing
• The—ed form
played
22. Irregular Verbs:
• Verbs in which all three parts (the base,
the past, the past participle) are
identical: let—let—let.
• Verbs in which two of the three parts
are identical: build—built—built.
• Verbs in which all three parts are
different: speak—spoke—spoken.
23. Transitive and
Intransitive Verbs:
• A verb that requires an object for
meaning is called a transitive verb
because the action transfers to the
object.
• A verb that does not require an object
for meaning is called an intransitive
verb because the action is complete in
itself.
24. For example: (TV)
• He poisoned the cat.
• Everybody sang the national anthem.
• She cleaned her house.
25. For example: ( ITV)
• John wept.
• Zubair smokes.
• I sleep late at night.
26. • Such verbs as give, ask, offer, promise,
tell etc take two objects i.e. direct object
and indirect object.
• A verb can be used transitively or
intransitively e.g.
• He spoke the truth. He spoke
haughtily.
