question for native English speakers:
if someone came up to you in the street (native English speaker/not a native English speaker doesn't matter) and asked "Hey what was the present continuous(simple whatever) of ___ verb?" what would you answer:
get confused af and run out of that bc they belong in a psych ward
answer them correctly and hope for them that they learn all of the irregular verbs or whatever
ask what the fuck is the present continuous
tell them to fuck off and to google it
tell them "It doesn't matter since you can speak fluently, it doesn't matter what form ur using as long as ur using it right"
don't answer but as soon as you get home you look it up bc you don't remember a single thing
answer but wrong
look it up on ur phone in front of them bc you forgot
Bc that´s probably what Spanish speakers will answer, I don't see why we should learn every single way of saying a verb, as long as you say it right and everyone understands you you´re set, it doesn't matter if you use the present continuous in English if you say it right, or if you use the preterito pluscuamperfecto or pretetito anterior as long as its right.
