verb ending
Word's final letters
A verb ending is a suffix attached to a verb to indicate grammatical information such as tense, person, or number.
In English, common verb endings include -ed for past tense, -ing for continuous forms, and -s for third-person singular present.
Languages with more complex verb systems have richer sets of endings that carry additional information about mood, aspect, or agreement.
