We moeten een onderscheid maken tussen regelmatige en onregelmatige werkwoorden: (1.) Regelmatige werkwoorden een vorm van (to be) in de tegenwoordige tijd + BEING + gevolgd door de infinitiefvorm van het werkwoord eindigend op -ED Bv. I am being betrayed.
(2.) Onregelmatige werkwoorden een vorm van (to be) in de tegenwoordige tijd + BEING + gevolgd door het onregelmatige voltooid deelwoord (de derde in het rijtje in een woordenboek of lijst) Bv. I am being seen. |
