Use any main verb of your choice to write out the different tenses in English language
kumpel [21]

Answer: To learn them, you may need to think about time in a different way ... There are three main verb tenses in English: present, past and future.

They are divided into four aspects: the simple, progressive, perfect and perfect progressive.

There are 12 major verb tenses that English learners should know.

English has only two ways of forming a tense from the verb alone: the past and the present. For example, we drove and we drive.

To form other verb tenses, you have to add a form of have, be or will in front of the verb. These are called helping, or auxiliary verbs.

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The sentence "Knox found that his warrior instinct had abandoned him" is an example of an indirect characterization.

Based on the author's characterization Henry Knox is a coward.

Explanation:

Henry Knox was the US secretary of war when the yellow fever plague struck, president George Washington put him in charge of the government and asked him to report to him regarding the spread of the disease.

However Henry Knox fled from the city after a few days in fear of the disease, and the author's slightly mocking tone suggests that his behavior was cowardly.

Indirect characterization is used to indicate what a character is like by describing their actions, appearance or speech. In describing the thoughts and actions of Henry Knox the author uses indirect characterization.
