Two questions and one side question
Hi,
1. Should this be "the regular and irregular past tense" or "regular and irregular past tenses"?
They will learn to talk about activities using the regular and irregular past tense of "to be".
2. What grammatical function does the word "opened" have? Could it be an adjective (with a present perfect tense)?
He acts as if he is a blind person who has just had his eyes opened.
Sorry but could we place an adverb like "just" ( I think it is an adverb") before the verb?
He acts as if he is a blind person who just has had his eyes opened.
