Question

a poet and patriot........passed away​

Answer 1

☆☞ [ Verified answer ]☜☆

A poet and patriot had/has passed away.

Answer 2

The completed sentence is as follows:

• A poet and patriot had passed away​.

Using had:

• Use have/has for the present tense and had for the past tense as a primary verb, as demonstrated in the following examples: I'm drinking coffee and eating a muffin. I had a piece of toast and a cup of tea yesterday.
• The past tense and past participle of the verb have is had.
• Sometimes, instead of starting a phrase with "if," the word "had" is used to refer to an event that might have occurred but did not.
• For instance, "had she been elected" has the same meaning as "if she had been elected."
• The past tense of the verb to have (had) and the past participle of the main verb make up the English Past Perfect tense.
