Explanation:

In traditional grammar, an element of speech or part-of-speech is a category of words that have similar grammatical properties. The past is a grammatical tense whose function is to place an action or situation in the past. samples of verbs in the past tense include the English verbs sang, went and washed. Most languages have a past, with some having several types so as to indicate how far back the action took place. In grammar, a future is a verb form that generally marks the event described by the verb as not having happened yet, but expected to happen within the future. An example of a future form is the French aimera, meaning "will love", derived from the verb aimer.
