Getting stressed with grammar tenses
Hi everyone
I am having some difficulty with my grammar and would really appreciate it if someone could check/correct my answers to the following questions;
Identitfy the form in the following sentences:
1) The plane leaves at 10:00 tomorrow.
2) If i had a lot of money, i'd buy a boat.
3) You should go to the doctor.
4) I'll kill you!
5) I've just had lunch.
6) By the time i got there, the bus had left.
Answers
1) Present simple + time marker
Verb 'to leave' in the present tense + time marker
2) present (2nd) conditional
'If' + past perfect; would + infinitive of verb buy, without 'to'
If clause + past perfect of verb 'to have' ; auxiliary verb + main verb
3) Not really sure what the tense is here!
Auxiliary verb 'should' + main verb 'go' without 'to'
4) Future simple
Auxiliary verb 'will' + main verb 'to kill' without 'to'
5) Present perfect simple
Subject + verb 'to have' (not sure about the rest)
6) Not sure again waht the tense is here
i can only work out the second part which i think is 'past perfect' Simple past of auxiliary verb 'have' + past participle of verb 'leave'
Kind regards
