Subject: The Difference Between Sending Something & Having Already Sent It
Importance: High
THIS IS BEING SENt ON POPULAR DEMAND
Kindly Note : SEND & SENT are different words
There are no words as senDed, senTed or senTing
Before senDing something make sure that you have not senT it already.
While senDing something make sure that you senD it to the right person.
Before senDing something make sure that you are senDing it to the right person.
To senD something tomorrow please make sure that when you senD it today, it is senT to the right people.
If you have already senT it then you have not forgotten to senD it ;-)
----------------
TIP
: 'senD' is used for present & future tense
: 'senT' only for past tense.
----------------
By the time you reach home, he would have senT it.
Here the past tense version is used in the future tense because it is explaining a situation in the future after we have been 'transported'(senT?) there.
----------------
Did he senD it ?
Here we have been transported to the past and that time is now our 'virtual' present from which we will then make the sentence.
Idea no ?
----------------
Did he senD it ?
Was he senDing it when you were there ?
Will he senD it ?
Has he senT it ?
Is he senDing it ?
Will he be senDing it ?
Was it senT ?
Will it be senT?
