- The three traditionally recognized Non-modal Auxiliaries' are the per-
fective '''Auxiliary''' ''have'', the progressive '''Auxiliary''' ''be'', and the passive '''Auxiliary
''be''. Perfective ''have'' is so-called because it marks the completion (hence, ''perfec-
tion'') of an action; it is followed by a VP headed by a perfective ''-n'' participle, as
in:
(121) The referee has [VP ''shown him the red card]
A marching band colorguard.
