Well Microsoft has developed a new technology that would allow a user to input an infinitive or non-infinitive form of a verb. When a user inputs a non-infinitive form of the verb, the software would identify the corresponding base form of the verb. It then would use that base to display the forms for the verb.
Microsoft filed an application on August 31 to the US Patent and Trademark Office, looking forward to patent a Verb conjugation system. Clearly this new development will be very helpful for all those persons that depend on the grammar check tool when writing in a foreign language.

The inventors are Eric J. Voetberg, Jinsong Yu, Mark D. Stumpf and Robert E. Parkin, employees of Microsoft.

A key benefit of this new platform is that data transmission will not be disturbed even when users are travelling at 75 miles per hour. The companies behind the development of the 4G technology are Samsung and NTT DoCoMo, in the US Nextel Corp is a likely partner.
