Tense

One of the forms which a verb takes by inflection or by adding auxiliary words, so as to indicate the time of the action or event signified; the modification which verbs undergo for the indication of time.
The primary simple tenses are three: those which express time past, present, and future; but these admit of modifications, which differ in different languages.
