A FREQUENT MISTAKE

+188.+ Perhaps one of the most frequent mistakes is the confusion in the

use of the past time form and the past participle. Remember that the

past time form is never used except in expressing past time; never use

it in forming a verb phrase. Take the verb _do_, for example--say, _He

did the work_, never, _He done the work_; but we should say, _He has

done the work_, never, _He has did the work_. _Say_ and _seen_ are

confused in the same manner. Watch this carefully.
