Explanation:
1.
Present Tense: For regular verbs, the base form is used. For irregular verbs, the base form remains unchanged.
2.
Past Tense: Regular verbs typically form the past tense by adding "-ed" (e.g., "seem → seemed"). Irregular verbs have unique past tense forms (e.g., "eat → ate", "send → sent").
3.
Future Tense: The future tense is formed by adding "will" followed by the base form of the verb.
