Verb phrases or verb constructions in Thai language often comprise one or more verbs, and their constituents include main verbs, auxiliary verbs, and co-verbs. A crucial aspect in Thai grammar is that verbs do not change form for tense; instead, time words are used for past, present, and future tenses. Mastering verb phrases is essential for communicating effectively in Thai.
