The Tensed-S condition is a concept in theoretical linguistics, particularly in the field of syntax and semantics, associated with the study of tense, mood, and aspect in language. It was proposed by linguists such as David Pesetsky, and it deals with the interaction between the syntax of sentences and their tense semantics. The Tensed-S condition asserts that a sentence must have a tense that is compatible with its syntactic structure.
