- Present progressive = @present.@progressive (He is speaking = speak.@present.@progressive)
- Simple past = @past (He spoke = speak.@past)
- Past progressive = @past.@progressive (He was speaking = speak.@past.@progressive)
- Present Perfect Simple
- @past (finished action that has an influence on the present): He has spoken many times about that = speak.@past
- @present.@perfect (action that is still going on): He has spoken since yesterday = speak.@present.@perfect
- @past.@recent (action that stopped recently): He has just spoken = speak.@past.@recent
