Verbs Patterns
The verb patterns are used to explain
actions, needs, habits, situations, abilities,
etc.
This forms of using verbs are used for
explain ideas with two or three verbs ( a verb
infinitive, a conjugated verb and the verb "to",
somethis also is used a modal verb)
Example: I cant eat (modal + infinitive
whithout verb "to")
Future Forms
In the different forms to talk about the future we have the going to +
infinitive verb, the present continuous (to be + verb with "-ing"
termination) and the or "will/won't + verb in infinitive".
The future forms are used often to make predictions, arrangments,
plans, decisions etc.
Examples:
We wont be ready (prediction)
We’re going to watch a film – want to join us? (decision)

Simple Present and
Present Continous

Both Present Simple and Present Continuous are used for

actions that occur in the present. The Present Simple is used to
describe daily events, facts, or to narrate contemporary events.
The Present Continuous is used for temporary actions and to
describe what happens at the time of speech.
If the verb ends in y after a consonant is replaced by an I and
added an e.
If the verb ends «ss», «sh», «ch», «o» or «x», its added an "es"
If the action Corresponds to the third person of the singular its
added a "s" to the verb
Relative Clauses
They can be considered
complements, which serve to make a
reference function or clearer when
talking about places, people, animals,
time ... Always prior to the pronoun
Who/that, which/that, where, when,
whose Example : when I graduated,
Who bought my house...
Simple Past and
Past Continous
Naturally both versions of the verb often are explaining an action prior to the present.
For the simple past is used an estructure of the verb to be of [Subject + Was/Where]
and can be manipulated depending on what we want to communicate
Although its other and basic form is [Subject+Verb+"ed"] or [Subject + did/n't + Verb
(simple)] Example : Arturia did'nt play videogames, Arturia has not eated
In the continuous past the rule is followed [Subject + was/were+ Verb +ing]
Examples : Shirou was'nt training with swords.
 Present perfect with
for and since
We often use for and since with perfect tenses: We use for to talk
about a period of time: five minutes, two weeks, six years. We use
since to talk about a point in past time: 9 o'clock, 1st January,
Monday.
The auxiliary verb (have) is conjugated in the Present Simple: have,
has The main verb is invariable in past participle form: -ed (or
irregular) For negative sentences we insert not between the
auxiliary verb and the main verb.

worked here for five years. Since + a point in time since this
morning, since last week, since yesterday since I was a child, since
