Vて、Vて、〜 (V-te, V-te, ~) — connecting actions (and then...)

Linking one action after another in order.

Formula (सूत्र ढाँचा)

V1て first action
V2て second action
V3ます last verb — tense here

Grammar rule (व्याकरण नियम र परिभाषा)

Use the て-form to chain several actions in one sentence, in order. Only the last verb carries the tense; the earlier ones stay in て-form. Like "do X, do Y, and then Z."
