Conjugation

Definition:
1. Conjugation is how verbs change to fit properly in a sentence.
Each verb has an infinitive form, which is the most basic form
(e.g., “to think,” “to cry,” “to explain”). However, these infinitive verbs don’t work in
all sentences. They must be modified based on:
Person (1st, 2nd, 3rd)
Number (singular, plural)
Tense (simple past, simple present, simple future)
Aspect (simple, progressive, perfect)
In English, we usually add the most appropriate suffix: -ed (past participle)
or -ing (present participle, also called a gerund).
There are various subcategories of verb conjugations based on tense and aspect:

Indicative:
Implies a true statement (happened, happening, or will happen).
Subjunctive:
Expresses wishes or hypothetical scenarios.
Conditional:
Indicates something that would happen under different circumstances.
Imperative:
Used for commands.
2. Conjugation Examples Here are some examples using common English verbs:

you walk,
he/she/it walks,
