What are you doing / doing? What will you do?	translate, translate, will translate	What are you doing / doing? What will you do?	translate, translate, will translate
What does / does? What will do?	translate, translate, will translate	What do / do? What will they do?	translate, translate, will translate
What did you do? What did / did? What did / did?	translated, translated, translated, translated, translated, translated, translated	What did / did?	translated, translated

Changing verbs by birth

If you carefully study the following examples, you can make an interesting conclusion.

Time	wives genus, units number	wives gender, plural number	husband. genus, units number	husband. gender, plural number	average genus, units number	average gender, plural number
Present time	Lamp breaks	The lamps are broken	The glass is breaking.	Glasses are broken	Heart is breaking	Hearts are breaking
Past time	The lamp crashed	The lamps crashed	The glass broke.	Glasses crashed	Heart broke	Hearts have broken
Future tense	The lamp will break	The lamps will break	The glass will break.	Glasses will break	Heart will break	Hearts will break
