Verbs and tense

While it is true in English that a Verb can carry a tense, it is not universally so. In other languages such as Chinese, the verb is without tense. The current article focuses to much on English grammar and does not describe the term 'Verb' in it's full sense. Derek Harkness 22:08, 3 May 2007 (CDT)
