Catatan:
Auxiliary verb dapat berupa primary auxiliary verb be (is, are, am, was, were, be, been,
being), kombinasi antara dua primary (is/are being, was/were being, has/have been)
atau antara primary dan modal auxiliary verb (will be, will have been); sedangkan past
participle yang digunakan berupa kata kerja transitive.
