Thanks, I'm with this now.

I hate all the complicated terms that get longer and longer

"present progressive negative tense"

Woosh.

Did you see that? streight over my head. Is it possible to have a decent undertanding of a language without learning extensive technical terms?

Its not often you ask someone what tense they are speaking..

Saying that, I was in a clothes shop with my girlfriend on saturday and we walked past the childrens section and she pointed at a t-shirt and said "I could fit in that!" and i replied "past tense or potential?" and patted her stomach.

That was an awkward journey home..
