Simple Present Tense (Prosto sadašnje vreme)

se gradi od osnovnog oblika glagola (infinitiv bez “to”).

Na primer, infinitiv sa “to” glagola raditi glasi to work a infinitiv bez “to” glasi work. Za sva lica osim za
treće lice jednine potvrdni oblik prostog sadašnjeg vremena glasi work. Za treće lice se dodaje –s.

Potvrdni oblik
Jednina (singular)
I work. (Ja radim.) You work. (Ti radiš.) He/she/it works. (On/ona/ono radi.)
Množina (plural)
We work. (Mi radimo.) You work. (Vi radite.) They work. (Oni rade.)
Nastavak –s u trećem licu jednine može imati različite oblike. Ukoliko se glagol završava na
vokal o nastavak će glasiti –es, kao u primeru glagola go koji u 3. l. jed. glasi goes ili glagol do
koji u 3. l. jed. glasi does.

Ukoliko se glagol završava na –ch, –sh, –x, –ss, nastavak takođe glasi –es:
He teaches. (teach – predavati)
She washes. (wash – prati)
He kisses. (kiss – ljubiti)
She fixes. (fix – popravljati)
Ako se glagol završava na –y i ukoliko je ispred njega suglasnik –y prelazi u –ie:
He cries. (cry -plakati)
It flies. (fly – leteti)
Ako je ispred –y samoglasnik, nema promene:
She plays. (play – igrati)
He stays. (stay – ostati)
Izuzetak je glagol have (imati) koji u trećem licu glasi has.

Upitni oblik
Upitni oblik glagola u Present Simple Tense-u se gradi od pomoćnog glagola do, odnosno
does (za treće lice jednine) i osnovnog oblika glavnog glagola.
Sva pitanja se u engleskom jeziku dele na Yes/No pitanja i Wh– pitanja. Yes/No nemaju
upitnu reč i na njih se može odgovoriti sa da ili ne. Wh- pitanja počinju upitnom rečju a one
su: when, what, why, where, how, how much, how many…
Yes/No pitanja:
Jednina (singular)
Do I work? (Da li ja radim?)
Do you work? (Da ti radiš?)
Does he/she/it work? (Da li on/ona/ono radi?)
Množina (plural)
Do we work? (Da li mi radimo?)
Do you work? (Da li vi radite?)
Do they work? (Da li oni rade?)

odrični oblik
Odrični oblik se gradi od odričnog oblika pomoćnog glagola do (odnosno does za treće lice
jednine) u odričnom obliku i osnovnog oblika glavnog glagola.
Jednina (singular)
I do not (don’t) work. (Ja ne radim.)

(svake godine) i sl. Zatim, once a year (jedanput godišnje), twice a day (dvaput dnevno),
three times a week (triput nedeljno) i sl.
Prilozi always, usually, often, sometimes, never dolaze pre glavnog glagola u potvrdnom
obliku. Fraze every day, every month, twice a year… najčešće dolaze na kraju rečenice:
I always go to school at 8 o’clock in the morning. (Ja uvek idem u školu u 8 sati ujutru.)

2. The Present Continuous Tense – Sadašnje trajno vreme

Present Continuous Tense (Sadašnje trajno vreme) se gradi od glagola to be u Present Simple
Tense-u (Prostom sadašnjem vremenu), tj. am/is/are + Present Participle (sadašnji particip)
glavnog glagola.
Sadašnji particip se gradi kada se na infinitiv doda nastavak –ing:
go – going sleep – sleeping work – working
Ako se glagol završava na jedan suglasnik ispred kojeg stoji kratak, naglašen samoglasnik,
krajnji se suglasnik ispred –ing udvostručava:
hit (udariti) – particip: hitting stop (prestati) – particip: stopping permit (dopustiti) –
particip: permitting begin (početi) – particip: beginning
Krajnje –l se uvek udvostručava:
travel (putovati) – particip: travelling
Ukoliko se glagol završava na –e, to -e se gubi i dodaje se nastavak –ing:
come – coming make – making take – taking
Ukoliko se glagoli završavaju na –ie, nastavak -ie prelazi u y i dodaje se nastavak – ing:
die – dying lie – lying

Conditional sentences (uslovne/pogodbene rečenice)
Kondicionali (uslovne rečenice) su zavisne rečenice koje se uvode veznikom if (ako). U
zavisnosti od toga kolika je mogućnost za ostvarenje radnje svi kondicionali se dele na prvi,
drugi i treći kondicional.
THE FIRST CONDITIONAL (prvi kondicional)
Prvi kondicional se još naziva i realni. Sam naziv kaže da postoji velika mogućnost za
ostvarenje radnje koja se uslovljava. Kao i u svakoj složenoj rečenici, razlikujemo
kondicionalnu (uslovnu) rečenicu i glavnu rečenicu.
Uslov se u prvom kondicionalu izražava u Present Simple Tense-u, dok se u glavnoj rečenici
javlja Future Simple (will + infinitiv bez to).
If you finish your homework on time, you will get a good mark. (Ako završiš domaći zadatak
na vreme, dobićeš dobru ocenu.)
If she spends all the money, she will not go shopping. (Ako potroši sav novac, ona neće ići u
kupovinu).
Kao varijacije prvog kondicionala javljaju se sledeće izmene:
Umesto oblika will+infinitiv mogu se javiti ostali modalni glagoli sa infinitivom.
If you want to lose weight, you should/must eat less bread. (Ako želiš da oslabiš, trebalo bi /
moraš da jedeš manje hleba.)
If everything is in order, you may/can leave at once. (Ako je sve u redu, možeš odmah otići.)
U glavnoj rečenici se može desiti da se takođe javi Present Simple Tense. To se dešava kada
govorimo o naučnim činjenicama ili drugim izvesnim radnjama.
If you heat ice it turns to water. (Ako zagrevaš led pretvoriće se u vodu.)
If there is an economy crisis prices go up. (Ako nastane ekonomska kriza cene rastu.)
Umesto Present Simple Tense -a možemo upotrebiti Present Continuous Tense za sadašnju
radnju ili neki plan u budućnosti.
If you are looking for Marko (present action) you should better look in the cafe. (Ako tražiš
Marka, bolje ga potraži u kafiću.)
If you are staying for another night (future arrangement) I`ll ask the manager to give you a
better room. (Ako ćete ostati još jednu noć, pitaću upravnika da Vam da bolju sobu.)
THE SECOND CONDITIONAL (drugi kondicional)
Drugi kondicional nosi sa sobom manju verovatnoću da će se radnja ostvariti iako to nije
potpuno nemoguće.
Uslov se izražava Past Simple Tense-om, dok se u glavnoj rečenici nalazi modalni glagol
would + infinitiv bez to.
If I had a map, I would lend it to you. (Kad bih imala mapu, posudila bih ti je.)
If someone stole my car, I would call the police. (Kad bi mi neko ukrao auto, pozvala bih
policiju.)
Prošli oblik glagola TO BE se često u drugom kondicionalu javlja samo kao WERE za sva lica.
If I were you, I wouldn`t do that. (Da sam ja na tvom mestu, ne bih to uradila.)
Varijacije se takođe mogu javiti u obliku modalnih glagola koji zamenjuju would + infinitiv u
glavnoj rečenici.
If I knew his number, I could ring him up. (Kad bih znala njegov broj, mogla bih da ga
pozovem.)
If you tried again, you might succeed. (Kad bi ponovo pokušao, možda bi uspeo.)
Umesto Past Simple Tense -a možemo upotrebiti Past Continuous Tense.
If we were going by boat I`d feel much safer. (Da idemo čamcem, osećala bih se mnogo
bezbednije.)
If my car was working I could drive you to the station. (Da mi auto radi, mogla bih da te
odvezem do stanice.)
THE THIRD CONDITIONAL (Treći kondicional)
Treći kondicional označava zamišljenu ili potupo nerealnu situaciju. On nam daje do znanja
da više ne postoji mogućnost za ostvarenje radnje.
Uslov se izražava Past Perfect Tense-om, dok se u glavnoj rečenici nalazi modalni glagol
would + prošli infinitiv bez to.
Prošli infinitiv (Perfect Infinitive) je oblik infinitiva koji se gradi od glagola HAVE + PAST
PARTICIPLE glavnog glagola, npr. have been, have gone, have taken …
If I had seen him, I would have told him the news. (Da sam ga videla, rekla bih mu vesti.)
If someone had stolen my car, I would have called the police. (Da mi je neko ukrao auto,
pozvala bih policiju.)
Varijacije se takođe mogu javiti u obliku različitih modalnih glagola koji zamenjuju would u
glavnoj rečenici.
If he had invited me, I might have come to the party. (Da me je pozvao, možda bih i došla na
zabavu.)
If the police had come on time, they could have caught the burglar. (Da je policija došla na
vreme, možda bi uhvatili provalnika.)
U uslovnoj rečenici se takođe mogu javiti neke varijacije. Umesto Past Perfect Tense-a može
se javiti Past Perfect Continuous Tense.
If we had been travelling by car, the accident might not have happened at all. (Da smo
putovali autom, možda do nesreće ne bi ni došlo.)

VRSTE RECI
Verbs – Glagoli
Morfološki oblici
Glagoli u engleskom jeziku mogu se formirati na 4 načina, tj. postoje 4 morfološka oblika, a
to su: the present (sadašnje vreme), the past (prošlo vreme), the present participle (sadašnji
particip) i the past participle (prošli particip).
The present (sadašnje vreme) je osnovni oblik glagola koji tražimo u rečniku: be, close, love,
go…
The past je prošli oblik glagola koji objašnjava da se radnja dogodila u prošlosti, to je prost
glagolski oblik koji stoji sa imenicom ili zamenicom i tako označava predmet iskaza: I was, I
closed, I loved, I went…

Participles and verbs of sensation (participi i glagoli

percepcije)
Participi (sadašnji i prošli) su glagolski pridevi koji se najčešće koriste za građenje trajnih i
svršenih vremena. Ali oni se mogu koristiti i u raznim konstrukcijama kao i za skraćenje
rečenica.
Participi se koriste da skrate rečenicu kada označavaju radnju istovremenu sa dešavanjem
radnje glavnog glagola.
She was sitting in an armchair reading a book. (Sedela je u fotelji i čitala knjigu.)
He is a man praized by all his friends. (On je čovek hvaljen od strane svih svojih prijatelja.)
Nekada radnja participa može i da prethodi glavnoj radnji:
Taking a key out of his pocket, he opened the door. (Izvadivši ključ iz džepa, on je otvorio
vrata.)
It is a novel written a few years ago. (To je roman napisan pre nekoliko godina.)
Sadašnji particip može da objašnjava razlog izvršenja neke radnje.
Feeling tired, I went to bed early. (Pošto sam bila umorna, otišla sam u krevet ranije.)
Takođe se koristi da označi trajne osobine stvari ili ljudi.
The road joining the two villages is very narrow. (Put koji spaja dva sela je veoma uzan.)
Prošli particip se koristi u obrascu
subjekat + glagol + imenica/ zamenica + prošli particip sa velikim brojem glagola kao što su
feel, find, get, have, hear, like, make, prefer, see, want …
I found the house deserted. (Pronašao sam kuću napuštenu.)
John heard his name called. (Džon je čuo da su prozvali njegovo ime.)
Upotreba glagola “have” i “get” u ovakvim konstrukcijama se zove causative have i znači da
radnju nije izvršio subjekat već neko drugi za njega:
How often do you have your car serviced? (Koliko često ti rade servis na autu?)
I have just had my hair cut. (Upravo sam išla da mi skrate kosu.)
Ponekad konstrukcija have something done ima značenje iskusiti, proći kroz nešto, na
primer:
My brother had his nose broken in a fight. (Mom bratu su slomili nos u tuči.)
He had his car stolen last night. (Sinoć mu je neko ukrao auto.)
Sadašnji particip se može koristiti u obrascu
subjekat + glagol + imenica / zamenica + sadašnji particip sa velikim brojem glagola koji
označavaju čulne senzacije (verbs of sensations), npr. hear, look at, notice, observe,
perceive, see, smell, watch, a i sa glagolima like, find, get, have, keep, make, want, wish…
I thought I heard the telephone ringing. (Mislim da sam čula telefon kako zvoni.)
Did you notice something moving in the bushes? (Jesi li primetio da se nešto mrda u žbunju?)
Look at the birds flying south. (Pogledaj ptice kako lete na jug.)
Ponekad u istim ovim konstrukcijama sadašnji particip može biti zamenjen infinitivom bez
“to”. Razlika je u tome što konstrukcija sa infinitivom označava završenu trenutnu aktivnost a
sadašnji particip označava radnju koja traje.
I saw him cross the road. (Videla sam ga kako je prešao put.)
I saw him crossing the road. (Videla sam ga kako prelazi ulicu.)

Pravilni i nepravilni glagoli

Engleski, kao i mnogi germanski jezici, sadrži pravilne i nepravilne glagole. Svaki nepravilni
glagol se uči napamet. U zavisnosti od pravilnosti glagoli se dele na četiri grupe: pravilni,
nepravilni, glagoli koji imaju više oblika i nepotpuni glagoli.
Pravilni glagoli grade prošlo vreme i prošli particip tako što se im dodaje nastavak –d ili –ed,
kao što je open, opened, opening, opened.
Nepravilni glagoli imaju sopstvene oblike za prošlo vreme i prošli particip kao što je drink,
drank, drinking, drunk.
Glagoli sa više oblika formiraju prošlo vreme i prošli particip na dva ili više načina, dakle
mogu biti pravilni i nepravilni u isto vreme, kao što je thrive, thrived ili throve, thrived ili
thriven.
Nepotpuni glagoli poput beware, ought, quoth nemaju participe i imaju samo nekoliko oblika
ili vremena.

Funkcije pomoćnih glagola u engleskom jeziku

Pomoćni glagoli u engleskom jeziku su be, do i have, a oni se takođe mogu koristiti i kao
samostalni glagoli. Will i shall se koriste da izraze buduće vreme.
U svakom od sledećih primera ovi pomoćni glagoli imaju funkciju prostog predikata (nema
dodatnih glagola koji menjaju njihovo osnovno značenje):
Tamara is a teacher. (Tamara je učiteljica.)
The bowls are in the cupboard. (Činije su u kredencu.)
James does this kind of thing frequently. (Džon to čini često.)
My roommates and I do the laundry every week. (Moji cimeri i ja peremo veš svake nedelje.)
I can’t complete my task because he still has my notes. (Ne mogu da završim moj zadatak jer
su kod njega još uvek moje beleške.)
They have several kinds chocolate in the store. (Oni imaju nekoliko vrsta čokolade u radnji.)
Drugi glagoli koji se takođe smatraju pomoćnim su can, could, may, might, must, ought,
should, and would. Ovi glagoli se nazivaju modalni glagoli i izražavaju potrebu, obavezu ili
mogućnost:
Tom decided that Ana could take several days off.
The girl told her parents that she would finish everything if they gave her money.
John told Maria that she ought to have the car fixed.
The boss told his workers that they might get new uniforms.
According to the instructions, we must keep this cream in a cool and dry place.
Pomoćni i glavni glagol ne stoje uvek jedan pored drugoga. Između njih se mogu naći
odrečne rečce i prilozi:
They have not changed the figures on time. (Nisu promenili cifre na vreme.)
The problem was never discovered. (Problem nikad nije otkriven.)
He has recently decided that all workers should do those reports. (On je skoro odlučio da svi
radnici treba da urade te izveštaje.)
Will you walk the dog tomorrow? (Hoćeš li prošetati psa sutra?)
My friend was rapidly and gracefully dancing about the stage. (Moj prijatelj je brzo i
graciozno igrao po pozornici.)

The passive voice (pasiv)

Glagoli imaju dva stanja: AKTIV ili radno stanje i PASIV ili trpno stanje.
Ako subjekat rečenice vrši radnju, onda je glagol u AKTIVU
Somebody cleans the office every day. (Neko čisti ovu kancelariju svakog dana.)
Ako subjekat rečenice trpi radnju, onda je glagol u PASIVU
The office is cleaned every day. (Ova kancelarija se čisti svakog dana.)
Objekat aktivne rečenice (the office) postaje subjekat pasivne rečenice i dolazi na početak
rečenice, a glavni glagol (clean) se stavlja u pasiv (is cleaned).
Pasiv se gradi od odgovarajućeg oblika glagola to be i past participle-a (prošlog participa)
glavnog glagola.
Tako će u sadašnjem vremenu pasiv glagola clean glasiti:
am cleaned, are cleaned, is cleaned (u zavisnosti od lica)
a u prošlom vremenu
was cleaned, were cleaned (u zavisnosti od lica)
Rečenica koju smo imali u sadašnjem vremenu, ovako bi izgledala u prošlom:
Somebody cleaned the office yesterday. (Neko je juče očistio ovu kancelariju.) (aktiv)
The office was cleaned yesterday. (Ova kancelarija je očišćena juče.) (pasiv)
Primeri pasiva:
Butter is made from milk. (Buter se pravi od mleka)
Oranges are imported into Britain. (Pomorandže se uvoze u Britaniju.)
How often are these rooms cleaned? (Koliko često se čiste ove prostorije?)
This house was built 100 years ago. (Ova kuća je sagrađena pre 100 godina.)
These houses were built 100 years ago. (Ove kuće su sagrađene pre 100 godina.)
When was the telephone invented? (Kada je izmišljen telefon?)
Upotreba:
Pasiv se koristi u situacijama
1. Kada ne znamo ko je izvršio radnju
The house was built in the 19th century. (Kuća je izgrađena u 19. veku.)
2. Kada izvršilac radnje nije bitan
Wine is served during the lunch. (Vino se služi tokom ručka.)
3. Ako želimo da označimo izvršioca radnje, koristimo predlog by.
These cakes were made by my mother. (Ove kolače je napravila moja majka.)
Napomena: Samo prelazni glagoli (glagoli koji imaju objekat iza sebe) mogu da se stave u
pasiv.

Trajni (progressive) aspekt

Pomoćni glagol be se koristi sa sadašnjim participom za formiranje trajnog aspekta. Rečenica
„I am driving my car“ opisuje šta govornik radi u samom trenutku govora, dok je rečenica „I
drive my car“ činjenica i odnosi se na širi vremenski period.

Svršeni (perfect) aspekt

Pomoćni glagol be se koristi sa prošlim participom da bi se formirao svršeni aspekt. Na
primer, rečenica „Marina has fallen in love“ se razlikuje od „Marina fell in love“ jer
prethodna podrazumeva povezanost sa sadašnošću (moguće je da je Marina još uvek
zaljubljena), dok u drugoj to nije slučaj.

Stative verbs – glagoli stanja

Neki glagoli se koriste samo (ili uglavnom) u prostim vremenima, a ne koriste se u trajnim.
Primer prostog vremena je prosto sadašnje vreme, ili prosto prošlo vreme. Primer trajnog
vremena je sadašnje trajno vreme ili prošlo trajno vreme. Ovi glagoli se zovu glagoli stanja.
Glagol koji nije glagol stanja zove se glagol zbivanja i obično predstavlja neku radnju. Često
se glagoli stanja odnose na to šta volimo, a šta ne, ili opisuju mentalno stanje, a ne neku
radnju
