Finite verb can form independent clause, which stand by their own as complete sentence.
A sentence life thanks for your help. Has a nintergection where could have a subject and a finite verb form. The finite forms of a verb are the forms where the verb show tense, person, or singular/plural.
a verb that has a subject, this means that it can be the main verbs in a sentences. It shows tense (past/present, etc) or number (singular/plural), A finite verb makes an assertion or expresses a state of being and can stand by itself as the main verb of a sentence.
Example :
I cook, she reads, Anto went
Dina has eaten when Ria come in, By itself, the verb form eaten is called a non-finite verb When the auxiliary has and the non-finite verb eaten are put together, they make up a finite verb form has eaten.
Tamara was walking. Walking is non-finite and was is to be. When they are put together, they make up finite form was walking
Non-finite verb is a verb are the forms where the verb don’t show tense or person.
Or a verb has no subject, tense, or number. The only finite verb forms are the infinitive (indicated by to), the gerund or the participle (present/past)
Example :
Verbs ending in -ing. These are called present participles, they were eating in Zaneth’s restaurant.
This non-finite verb form end in -ed; many also end in en. These are called past participles. I have seen my new room ( the past participle written is non-finite and can’t be the main verb).
Talking is the children’s favorite pastime. ( talking is a gerund, verb to be noun)
I can’t afford to go out tonight
