Auxiliary Verb

Auxiliary verbs, which are seen as the building blocks of the sentence and which must be in every sentence, are one of the subjects that must be learned while learning English. If you want to make a sentence negative, if you want to turn that sentence into a question, or if you want to correct the time of the sentence, you can use auxiliary verbs. All auxiliary verbs in English complement main verbs, but auxiliary verbs do not have any meaning if used alone, they are completely meaningless.
