This template shows the verb in bold (optionally linking its components) and its key inflections.

{{en-verb}}
{{en-verb|...|es}}
{{en-verb|...|d}}
{{en-verb|...|ing}}
{{en-verb|...s|...ing|...d }}
{{en-verb|...s|...ing|...d|...d}}

                       <!-- for detailed notes -->

This template contains the necessary meta-data to allow users who are using accelerated editing to create any grammatical forms semi-automatically.

Parameters

Many verbs form the third-person singular by adding -s, the past by adding -ed, and the present participle by adding -ing. For such verbs, no parameters are necessary:

===Verb===

{{en-verb}}

To specify -es for the present third-person singular form:

{{en-verb|buzz|es}}

{{en-verb|hiss|es}}

{{en-verb|perplex|es}}

{{en-verb|scratch|es}}

{{en-verb|slosh|es}}

Verbs ending in -ee, -ie, or -ye add only -d for the past tense:

{{en-verb|dye|d}}

{{en-verb|free|d}}

{{en-verb|hoe|d}}

For verbs that add, drop, or replace final letters in the stem, specify the stem change:

{{en-verb|admir|ing}} (dropped the -e)

{{en-verb|bus|s|es}} (added an s)

{{en-verb|cr|i|ed}} (changed the -y to -i)

{{en-verb|t|y|ing}} (changed the -ie to -y)

{{en-verb|trek|k|ed}} (added a k)

Irregular verbs

For irregular (strong) verbs, specify the key forms (third-person present singular, the present participle, the simple past tense, and optionally the past participle):

{{en-verb|sets|setting|set}}

{{en-verb|does|doing|did|done}}

Some irregular verbs are defective or have multiple forms for some inflections. Show missing or additional forms or notes for any inflection. (Use inf for the infinitive notes, if necessary.):

{{en-verb| inf= - | can | - | could | - }}

{{en-verb| works | working | '''[[worked]]''' ''or obsolete'', '''[[wrought]]'''}}

{{en-verb| inf=[[have]] [[cake]] | '''[[has cake]]''' ''or archaic'', '''[[hath cake]]''' | having cake | had cake}}

{{en-verb| ills | '''[[illing]]''' ''or'' '''[[illin']]''' | illed}}

Other example, for blend:

{{en-verb|blends|blending|'''[[blended]]''', ''or poetic'', '''[[blent]]'''}}

Temporary legacy support

Some verbs were written with a different order for the present participle and past past tense arguments. This template temporarily supports such order only if the first argument is the page name:

{{en-verb|introduce|introduces|introduced|introducing}}
