NEWSPAPER HEADLINES
Here is a
brief guide to the “rules” by which English newspaper headlines
are written:
The article and the
verb to be are omitted.
The present tenses
are used to describe something which has happened, is happening, or
happens repeatedly.
When the present
continuous is used, the auxiliary verb to be is omitted.
To refer to the
future, the infinitive with to is used.
Passive sentences
are written without their auxiliary verbs.
There are a number
of words which are specifically used in headlines (e.g. quit is
often used instead of resign)
