Grammar Writing: Week 11

Auxiliaries, Identity and the Head-Complement Rule

So far, all our sentences just had a single finite main verb in them. But, of course English also has sentences with one or more auxiliary verbs and a main verb:

1. Lilly is dancing
2. Lilly has danced
3. Lilly will dance
4. Lilly will be dancing
5. Lilly will have danced
6. Lilly will have been dancing
