助动词 (英语:auxiliary verb 、英文简称:aux )是一种可以改变主要动词 意义或时态的一组动词,在印欧语系 语言中非常常见。例如英语 中的have、can、will、must等。这些助动词不能自己单独使用,必须要与另外一个动词配合使用才有意义。又助动词在句子中有其固定的出现位置,例如:在直述句中,助动词通常会出现在主词之后,但却在动词之前: "You must go home tonight." 这个句子中,you 是主词,must 是助动词,go 是动词。另外与助动词连用的动词,必须以动词原形或分词形式呈现。
下面是助动词为现在式和过去式比较:
现在式 过去式
can → could
will → would
may → might
shall → should(注:shall=will有未来 之意。should通常用于现在式,表 应该之意)
do/does → did
have/has → had
