ABSTRACT This study is explicitly geared towards investigating the use of primary auxiliary verbs in Baapelug Junior High School and it gives specific problems and the various interpretations extracted from the use of these verbs in the basic schools in the District. This study aims at looking for primary auxiliary verbs which are more used wrongly at their level. The descriptive approach to research was adopted for this study. A sample of the population was given a written test to find the level of efficiency in the use of primary auxiliary verbs and the effect misuse has on communication. Some findings from the study include pupils’ inability to distinguish between the past form of auxiliary verbs and their present form. One other problem of primary auxiliary verbs identified was that pupils could not match them with their appropriate verb forms. It is recommended that teachers of the Second Language in basic schools in Ghana should take the bull by the horn to upgrade themselves and also take conferences and seminars in the Second Language Teaching and Learning seriously. Quite apart from that, government should take a bold step in organizing training for English teachers twice each year. All heads of departments in the Language department should ensure that trained teachers in the field are made to handle the grammar aspect of the language.
