I discuss these other helping verbs because I want to familiarize the reader with easiest discussion first.
“be” and “been” usually function as helping verb for passive sentence
“be” is really be, not a word class, where on previous discussion “be” is a class. “be” modifies verb after modals in passive sentence and also purpose.
“been” is rarely use because it is only use in perfect tense active preceding nouns, adverbs, and adjectives and perfect tense passive. “been” is participle of “be” (is, am, are, was, were).
