Note:
1.
Untuk tenses FUTURE dan PAST FUTURE ( Yang non verbal) mungkin sangat
aneh jika digunakan kedalam kalimat, karena walaupun ada, tenses tersebut jarang
sekali digunakan dalam percakapan sehari hari.
2.

Untuk PAST FUTURE, Apapun subject nya, harus tetap menggunakan HAVE.
Kurang lebih dimikian tentang rumus tenses yang digunakan dalam bahasa Inggris.
Jika anda masih ada yang kurang paham tentang apa yang telah saya paparkan,
silahkan tinggalkan komentar.
2. Cara yang mudah dalam menghafalakan ke 16 rumus tenses tersebut.

Pertama kita harus hafal terlebih dahulu Nama nama 16 tenses tersebut, lalu kita
lanjutkan menghafalkan rumusnya. Untuk bagaimana mengingat nama nama
semua tenses tersebut, sudah pernah saya jelaskan dalam postingan sebelumnya.
silahkan anda lihat disini. Lalu sekarang kita akan mempelajari bagaimana cara
mengingat rumusnya. Disini saya akan menjelaskan secara poin poin, agar lebih
mudah difahami.
1.

Ciri ciri kaimat verbal adalah menggunakan VERB dan Object

2.

Sebaliknya, ciri ciri kalimat non verbal adalah TOBE dan adjective.

3.

To be disini diasumsikan sebagai (am, is, are), atau bentuk satu.

4.

Ciri cirri kalimat continuous adalah TO BE + Ving. (am, is , are, untuk present.
Was were untuk Past. Dan been untuk perfect continuous.

5.

Ciri ciri kalimat perfect adalah HAVE/HAS/HAD + V3. (Ket: Have untuk Present,
Had untuk Past)

6.

Ciri cirri dari kalimat PERFECT CONTINUOUS ADALAH Have/Had + Been + Ving.

7.

Ciri cirri kalimat future adalah Will.

8.

Ciri ciri kalimat Past Future adalah WOULD.

Note: Pastikan anda hafal semua ciri ciri tersebut.
Lalu bagaimanakan kita bisa membuat kalimat dengan tanpa melihat rumus? Mari
kita coba praktekkan.
Kita ambil contoh, kita membuat rumus PAST PERFECT yang verbal.

1.

Semua kalimat disini diawali dengan subjek, maka kita harus menentukan
subjeknya dulu.

I+
2.

3.

Setelah subjek terdefinisikan, lalu kedua adalah meletakkan Had dan Verb 3.
Karena seperti yang saya jelaskan tadi ciri kalimat verbal untuk perfect adalah had
+ V3. Kita menggunakan Had karena kita mau membuat kalimat Past. ( lihat poin
nomer 5)
I + Had + Done
Selesai.
Mau contoh lagi? Baik mari kita coba membuat kalimat dengan rumus FUTURE
PERFECT CONTINOUS.

1.

Seperti sebelumnya, kita tentukan subjek terlebih dahulu. Disini saya akan
contohkan They.
They +

2.

Ciri cirri dari Future tense adalah will. (Lihat poin nomer 7). Maka,

They + will +
3.

Lalu cirri cirri dari Perfect Continuous adalah have/had + been +Ving (Lihat
poin nomer 6) maka,

They + Will + Have + been +

studying

4.

Tinggal menambahkan objek atau adverb. (Walaupun tidak diberi tambahan

objek/adverb juga tidak apa apa)

Contoh di beri tambahan Objek:

They + Will + Have + been +
studying + English
Contoh di beri tambahan Adverb:
They + Will + Have + been +
Studying + there
