With what modes and tenses is it used? FULL CONJUGATIONS IN THE ACTIVE VOICE With the auxiliaries already given added to the forms made by inflection (pp. 130-135), we can build the entire conjugation of the active voice of any verb in the ordinary form, as follows: CONJUGATION OF THE REGULAR VERB EXERCISE 26 Note.--Do as an auxiliary is not used with any form of the verb be except the imperative; as, Do be quiet.

I shall, he will, we shall, you, they will have loved. I will, he shall, we will, you, they shall have loved. The vertical parallels II are introduced in a few instances, as above, to separate any succeeding auxiliaries from the first auxiliary; all words following the vertical parallels are to be understood after each preceding auxiliary.
