Abstract: This paper presents in an objective and structured way the use of
the main auxiliary verbs and their application in verbal phrases in Portuguese,
French, and English. Auxiliary verbs play an important role in the modulation
of aspect in compound tenses. They allow the construction of complex
verbal phrases which can relativize the aspect and tense of the events described
by the main verb. The use of the auxiliary verbs has many similarities and
parallels in the different languages, but also distinctions which are diachronically
and grammatically defined. Therefore, this study makes a detailed description
of the main auxiliary verbs from the three languages mentioned, using
concepts and definitions from the literature. Then, this paper performs an
analysis of the use of the different auxiliary verbs by examples and equivalences
among the languages. Finally, the auxiliary verbs, compound tenses, and verbal
phrases in Portuguese, French, and English are discussed in a comparative
way among these languages. From this study, we can have a better
understanding of the predicative modulation in complex verbal propositions.
Keywords: Auxiliary verbs. Verbal phrases. Compound tenses.
