AN ACTION THAT HAPPENED OR TOOK PLACE BEFORE CURRENT TIME

• जो क्रिया  इस   समय  से  पहले  हुई  है !
• IN THE END OF THE PAST INDEFINITE TENSE WE HAVE (आ , ई , ए )

• रीता  समय  पर नहीं आई 

FORMULA FOR ACTIVE SENTENCES : S+ IIV+O

COMPOUND SENTENCES

IN COMPOUND SENTENCES ALL THE CLAUSES MUST BE IN ONE TENSE ONLY.

e.g  वह गरीब था लेकिन ईमानदार था ! HE WAS POOR BUT WAS HONEST

मैं स्टूडेंट हूँ  और  मेरे पिताजी डॉक्टर हैं ! I AM A STUDENT AND MY FATHER IS A DOCTOR..


IMPORTANT : BE ALWAYS SURE OF THE TENSE SEQUENCE. FOR COMMAND OVER ENGLISH.

TENSE SEQUENCE : COMPLEX

IF THERE IS PRESENT TENSE IN THE MAIN CLAUSE

---- YOU CAN USE PRESENT OR FUTURE IN SUBORDINATE CLAUSES.

e.g  वह जब भी आता है     LIGHT OFF कर देता है !
         SUB.ORD CL            MAIN CL

HE SWITCHESOFF LIGHT WHENEVER HE COMES.

• IF THERE IS PAST IN THE MAIN CLAUSE, THE SUBORDINATE CLAUSE MUST BE IN THE PAST TENSE.

COMPLEX SENTENCES

A COMPLEX SENTENCE HAS A MAIN CLAUSE+ ONE OR MORE SUBORDINATE CLAUSE

e.g  जब टीचर आता है / तो हाजरी ली जाती है 
      जब टीचर.....(SUBORDINATE CLAUSE BECAUSE IT IS  INCOMPLETE)
     तो हाजरी ली ...(MAIN CLAUSE BECAUSE IT HAS A MEANING )


SUBORDINATE  CLAUSES  START WITH- WHAT, WHY, WHEN, WHO, WHICH SO , BEACAUSE , AS , AS IF)


COMPOUND SENTENCES : A COMPOUND SENTENCES HAS BOTH MEANINGFUL CLAUSES. JOINED BY AND BUT  BEACAUSE  etc.

e.g  वह रात को आया और सुबह चला गया  (both are meaningful )

    he came at night and went away in the morning.

PRESENT INDEFINITE

IN PASIVE ACTION IS ON THE OBJECT
THE DOER OR THE SUBJECT IS UNDERSTOOD
