An auxiliary verb, also referred to as a helping verb, is one that is the part of a verb phrase that helps the main verb. As part of a verb phrase, a helping verb might show when an action occurs or whether the action is required. Let's look at a few examples to get a sense of just what auxiliary, or helping verbs, do.
The one reason that the Battle of Barbarossa became a turning point in the war was the number of casualties that the German army suffered. The Russians also suffered a huge number of casualties, but still they were able to hold their ground. The German army failed to push forward and ultimately they had to resort to attacking the United states.
It was the turning point of the war.   It is true that the Battle of New Orleans was a lopsided victory for the US however the most unusual fact was that the war was alread â¦ y over when the battle took place. The Treaty of Ghent had been signed when it happened but the combatants did not know it at the time.
