===Voice=== In [[grammar]], there are two [[Voice (grammar)|voices]]: active and passive. These terms can be applied to whole sentences or verbs. Verbs also have tense, aspect and mode. There are three tenses: past, present, and future. There are two main aspects: perfect and progressive. Some grammarians refer to aspects as tenses, but this is not strictly correct, as the perfect and progressive aspects convey information other than time. There are many modes (also called moods). Some important ones are: declarative, affirmative, negative, emphatic, conditional, imperative, interrogative and subjunctive.
