” So when you tag along, you’re joining on to a group. You weren’t originally part of the plan, and the group may or may not be happy to have you join.”



The word “join” in bold above is a noun or a verb? should it be ” joined” by any chance? Please advise?

“Join” is the main verb in the sentence. It should not be “joined,” because it is talking about a general condition, so it is in the simple present.
