Welcome to the 10th lesson about verbs in Gujarati. We will first learn about the present tense, followed by the past tense, and future tense. We will also analyze some grammar rules, and finally practice how to ask for direction in Gujarati.
Verbs are used to express an action (I swim) or a state of being (I am). The present tense in Gujarati conveys a situation or event in the present time. Here are some examples:

| we speak Arabic અમે અરબી બોલીએ છીએ [ame arebeī beoleī chheī] |
| they speak Chinese તેઓ ચિની બોલે છે [teeo cheineī beole chhe] |
The past tense in Gujarati conveys a situation or event in the past time. Here are some examples:
