Is if she were correct grammar?

“If she was” is past tense, indicative mood. It describes something that happened or may have happened in the past. “If she were” is present tense, subjunctive mood. It describes a hypothetical situation that is not true.

Why do we say if I were?

The reason we use WERE instead of WAS is because the sentence is in the SUBJUNCTIVE mood which is used for hypothetical situations. This is a condition which is contrary to fact or reality (the fact is, I am NOT you). In the subjunctive mood we use IF + I / HE / SHE / IT + WERE for the verb To Be.

Who were you or who you?

“You were” , is correct. As I said above, was and were are in the past tense, but they are used differently. Was is used in the first person singular (I) and the third person singular (he, she, it). Were is used in the second person singular and plural (you, your, yours) and first and third person plural (we, they).

It is grammatically incorrect and it is possibly even more common than people saying things like “could of” and “should of.” So, why is it wrong? “Seen” is a verb form known as a past participle, which is meant to indicate that an action is completed. That’s because a past participle should not be used on its own.

Is it I have never seen or saw?

You can say “I never saw it.” This is correct, but would be less commonly used, because it is past-tense in a form that implies it is over and done with. So, you were watching for something for a specific period of time, but you never saw it (in that time period).

Is it I just seen or I just saw?

The meaning you’re presumably asking about is “moments ago, recently”. In this sense, *”I just see” is ungrammatical; “just” in this sense implies that the action occurred in the past, which contradicts the present tense “see”. “I just saw the movie.” “I’ve just seen the movie.”

Do you say I seen or saw?

In standard English, it’s “I’ve seen” not “I’ve saw.” The helping verb “have” (abbreviated here to “’ve”) requires “seen.” In the simple past (no helping verb), the expression is “I saw,” not “I seen.” “I’ve seen a lot of ugly cars, but when I saw that old beat-up Rambler I couldn’t believe my eyes.”

Is I have seen proper grammar?

“I saw” is the only correct way to say this. “Seen” cannot stand alone, so “I seen” is incorrect. “I saw” is the simple past tense, first person singular of “to see.” Never use “I seen” unless you are writing a novel with dialogue spoken by uneducated characters.
