Many English learners worry too much about
tense. If you stopped 100 native English
speakers in the street and asked them about
tense, one of them might give you an
intelligent answer—if you were lucky. The
other 99 would know little about terms like
"past perfect" or "present continuous". And
they would know nothing about aspect, voice
or mood. But they can all speak fluent
English and communicate effectively. Of
course, for ESL it helps to know about
tenses, but don't become obsessed with them.
Be like those native speakers! Speak
naturally!
