Is it really important to know what the verb tenses and stuff are? I mean, I use them without any trouble, but it's been two times already people haves asked me for, say, present perfect or something, and I just don't know what they're talking about until they tell me. I've found that I'm in the same situation with Spanish.
It seems to me that one only needs to learn the tenses when they're beginning to learn a language, but once you become fluent in said language, you don't need them anymore.
Your thoughts?
