This study is explicitly geared towards investigating the use of primary auxiliary verbs in
Baapelug Junior High School and it gives specific problems and the various
interpretations extracted from the use of these verbs in the basic schools in the District.
This study aims at looking for primary auxiliary verbs which are more used wrongly at
their level. The descriptive approach to research was adopted for this study. A sample of
the population was given a written test to find the level of efficiency in the use of primary
auxiliary verbs and the effect misuse has on communication. Some findings from the
study include pupils’ inability to distinguish between the past form of auxiliary verbs and
their present form. One other problem of primary auxiliary verbs identified was that
pupils could not match them with their appropriate verb forms. It is recommended that
teachers of the Second Language in basic schools in Ghana should take the bull by the
horn to upgrade themselves and also take conferences and seminars in the Second
Language Teaching and Learning seriously. Quite apart from that, government should
take a bold step in organizing training for English teachers twice each year. All heads of
departments in the Language department should ensure that trained teachers in the field
are made to handle the grammar aspect of the language |
