Future tense

Until now, I know why the English tense is so important. It’s very different from Chinese and English, Chinese expression is not very accurate, But English expression is accurate. Another way of saying is that English is an accurate language, but Chinese is not, so when you want to say anything, or write anything, you need notice the tense.

    Yes, it’s true. When used properly, English is a very accurate language. Time tenses, word order, and different words with slightly different meanings help to create this accuracy.
