Wikepedia has the following chart on their English Verb Tense page:
basic progressive perfect perfect progressive
Future I will write I will be writing I will have written I will have been writing
Present I write I am writing I have written I have been writing
Past I wrote I was writing I had written I had been writing
Conditional I would write I would be writing I would have written I would have been writing
Here's my question: Are conditionals "outside" of tense? According to this chart, they are, correct?
Thanks!
