tenseless
Lacking grammatical time
Tenseless describes language that lacks grammatical tense—verbs that don't mark past, present, or future.
Some languages are tenseless, relying on context or other words to indicate time.
In philosophy, tenseless theories of time hold that past, present, and future are equally real, without privileging "now." The word also describes writing or speech that avoids tense markers: The recipe uses tenseless instructions: "Add flour, stir gently."
