Grammar Eradication
Banishing "I done it" & "He has did": The principal parts of do are do, did, done. Done cannot function as a standalone finite verb in standard English. This lesson embeds the mandatory connection between done and auxiliary have/has/had.
1. I have done what you bid.
Analysis: First-person pronoun I requires auxiliary have. ("Bid" means commanded or asked.)
2. He has done his task.
Analysis: Third-person singular subject He pairs with auxiliary has.
3. The exercise has done him good. (or had done)
Analysis: Singular noun The exercise takes singular auxiliary has (or past perfect had).
4. The men have done their work.
Analysis: Irregular plural noun The men requires plural auxiliary have.
5. You have done well, John.
Analysis: Second-person pronoun You always takes have. Note the comma of direct address before John.
Statement with Did (Standalone Simple Past):
• Exemplar 1: The diligent boy did his arithmetic sums before recess.
Statements with Have Done / Has Done (With Helping Verbs):
• Exemplar 2 [have done]: We have done all our chores and now may play outside.
• Exemplar 3 [has done]: Sister has done her daily sewing with neat, even stitches.
