Reply to comment by AceDecade in ELI5: Why does the order of adjectives matter? by AbleReporter565

"He is running", " he was running", "he will run", and "he ran" all mean something different but are grammatically correct. That grammar rule is essential to the meaning of the sentence, in this case, the tense.
