Exercise 32. Our head verb is to work. We can do the exercises in our minds solely, as in the ■MIND PRACTICE.
Example 1: Monsieur Sauf had worked.
Answer: {TO} a cognitive ground for the PAST; the time frame is open to a reference in the PAST.
Example 2: Madame Règle will work.
Answer: {ON} a cognitive ground for the FUTURE; the time frame is closed on a reference for the FUTURE.
Please mind, our grounds for the PRESENT, PAST, or FUTURE are the grammatical time. We do not need insight greater than for classic grammar, to tell what has happened, or to predict on our real-time future.
1. Monsieur Sauf worked.
2. Monsieur Sauf will have worked.
3. Madame Règle has worked.
4. Madame Règle works.
