A girl in most of my classes *sounding as though she's reading from a paper*: What's the ind-i-ca-tive?
She calls me to ask me this. On a Sunday.

During vacation.

While I'm studying. *sighs* Even if the answer weren't so blatantly obvious (keep in mind that we constantly go back to studying moods in my German class (not to mention French and English) and said girl would know this if she paid even the slightest bit of attention), it would still be rude. Hasn't anyone heard of wikipedia?
I explain and use an example in the present tense.
She then asks if <insert the same example in the perfect tense> is also indicative.
After which I affirm that it is, she asks me to define the terms reflexive, transitive and intransitive verbs.

*sighs*
