Hi everyone


I am having some difficulty with my grammar and would really appreciate it if someone could check/correct my answers to the following questions;


Identitfy the form in the following sentences:


1) The plane leaves at 10:00 tomorrow.

2) If i had a lot of money, i'd buy a boat.

3) You should go to the doctor.

4) I'll kill you!

5) I've just had lunch.

6) By the time i got there, the bus had left.


Answers

1) Present simple + time marker

    Verb 'to leave' in the present tense + time marker


2) present (2nd) conditional 

    'If' + past perfect; would + infinitive of verb buy, without 'to'
  
    If clause + past perfect of verb 'to have' ;  auxiliary verb + main verb


3) Not really sure what the tense is here!
 
    Auxiliary verb 'should' + main verb 'go' without 'to'


4) Future simple

    Auxiliary verb 'will' + main verb 'to kill' without 'to'


5) Present perfect simple

    Subject + verb 'to have'   (not sure about the rest)

6) Not sure again waht the tense is here

    i can only work out the second part which i think is 'past perfect'  Simple past of auxiliary verb 'have' + past participle of verb 'leave'



Kind regards
