TENSES

1. Simple present tense

The simple present is a verb tense with two main uses. We use the simple present tense
when an action is happening right now, or when it happens regularly (or unceasingly, which is
why it's sometimes called present indefinite). Depending on the person, the simple present tense
is formed by using the root form or by adding –s or –es to the end.

Example:

 I feel great!

 Pauline loves pies.

 I'm sorry to hear that you're sick.

Use simple present tense verbs in the base form of the verb. Do not add any kind of
suffix, like ''-ed'' or '' -ing .'' Just like the previous example sentences, the base forms of ''go,''
''play,'' and ''eat '' were used. However, you do change the simple present verb when the subject
describes ''he,'' ''she,'' or ''it'' - do this by adding an ''-s.'' Examples:

For habits

 He drinks tea at breakfast.

 She only eats fish.

 They watch television regularly.

For repeated actions or events

 We catch the bus every morning.


 It rains every afternoon in the hot season.

 They drive to Monaco every summer.

For general truths

 Water freezes at zero degrees.

 The Earth revolves around the Sun.

 Her mother is Peruvian.

In the simple present, most regular verbs use the root form, except in the third-person singular
(which ends in –s).

 First-person singular: I write

 Second-person singular: You write

 Third-person singular: He/she/it writes (note the –s)

 First-person plural: We write

 Second-person plural: You write

 Third-person plural: They write

For a few verbs, the third-person singular ends with –es instead of –s. Typically, these are verbs
whose root form ends in o, ch , sh , th , ss, gh , or z.

First-person singular: I go
 Second-person singular: You go

 Third-person singular: He/she/it goes (note the –es)

 First-person plural: We go

 Second-person plural: You go

 Third-person plural: They go

 For most regular verbs, you put the negation of the verb before the verb, eg, “She won't
go” or “I don't smell anything.”

 The verb to be is irregular:

 First-person singular: I am

 Second-person singular: You are

 Third-person singular: He/she/it is

 First-person plural: We are

 Second-person plural: You are

 Third-person plural: They are

2. Present Continuous Tense


Present continuous tense is also called as present progressive tense. According to Hornby
(1975) the present progressive is the tense most often used for this purpose. It is the tense more
closely associated with the present time. There may be an adverbial present time ( eg now,
today), but this is not essential.

The present continuous tense not only expresses the activity of general nature and activity
in progress at the moment of speaking, but the present continuous tense also expresses the future.
Present continuous may be used to express future rime when the idea of the sentence concerns a
planned event or definite intention, for example. Rino is meeting with a Dr. Smith next
Wednesday.

According to Swan (1980) in his book Practical English Usage which explains some function of
present continuous, namely:

a) Present progressive tense is made with am/are/is. The commonest use of present progressive
tense is to talk about actions and situations that are already going on at the moment of speaking.
Example : What's going on? Is there something wrong?

b) Present progressive tense is often used to talk about developing or changing situations.
Example: The rain is heavy and heavy

c) Sometimes, the present progressive is used in a more general way to talk about something that
may be going on at any time. Example: you call me while I am making a cake

 Example Sentence (Positive): "She is working on her homework now."

 Example Sentence (Negative): " She is not working on her homework now ."

 Example Sentence (Question): " Is she working on her homework now ?"

 Example Sentence (To tell future plans): "Mark is moving to a new school next month ."

The present continuous (present progressive) tense is a way to convey any action or
condition that is happening right now, frequently, and may be ongoing. It adds energy and action
to writing, and its effect helps readers understand when action is happening. Imagine Aunt
Christine has surprised her nephew Scott for his birthday and is going to take him out to his
favorite restaurant, Polly's Pancake Diner. If I wanted to tell the story after it happened, I'd use
the past tense:

Example :

They waited at the red light, and Scott worried they might miss their reservation. (Past tense)

But what I really want to convey is how the event unfolded, showing the action as it is
happening:

Example : They are sitting at Scott's favorite booth, the one with the sparkling red plastic seats.
(For how long? We don't know, but we do know they are sitting there now.)

Example : The waiter is standing behind the counter right now with a notepad in his hand and
pencil behind his ear. (Will he ever make it over to the booth? Probably, but not now.)

Example : "Are you waiting to open your presents after you eat your pancakes?" said Aunt
Christine, taking a sip from her root beer. (Here the present continuous is being used in question
form.)

From this narrative point of view, the action is immediate and continuous; there's
momentum. Sometimes writers use this tense to add suspense or humor in fictional pieces. What
kind of pancakes would Scott and his aunt order? The suspense is killing me!

The Present Continuous Formula


To form the present continuous, follow this formula:

To Be [Am, Is, Are] + Verb [Present Participle]

When to Use the Present Continuous Tense

Use the present continuous tense with the appropriate "to be" verb and a dynamic verb. A
dynamic verb shows action and/or process. for example,

Example : Scott's little sister is arriving at the diner two hours late because her roller derby team,
Chicks Ahoy, won the national championships early today. As she is walking into Polly's
Pancake Diner, she is yelling goodbye to her friends outside, and Scott hopes she doesn't cause a
scene since she is always embarrassing him in public.

3. Present Perfect Tense


present perfect tense expresses an action that began in the past and has recently been
completed or continued in the present. In Oxford Learner Pocked (2008:347) defines the present
perfect tense as a verb form which expresses an action done in a time period up to present,
formed in English with have/has and past participle. It means, the present perfect tense is formed
by combining a present-tense form of the auxiliary verb "have/has" with the past participle of the
main verb.

Thus, Present perfect tense can be defined as a tense that is used to tell about an event
that has finished with a situation that began in the past but the effect can still be experienced until
now (continues). The sentence pattern of present perfect tense a. Affirmative

Verbal sentences

Pattern of affirmative verbal sentences in present perfect

S + have/has + Past Participle +...

 I have lived in Mamuju for fifteen years ago


 She has heard the news recently

Formula : Subject + has/have + Verb 3 (Past Participle Form)

 Example Sentence (Positive): " They have seen the movie Spider-Man: No way home."
 Example Sentence (Negative): " They have not seen the movie Spider-Man: No way
home."
 Example Sentence (Question): " Have they seen the movie Spider-Man: No way home?"

The present perfect tense is an English verb tense used for past actions that are related to
or continue into the present. It's easily recognized by the auxiliary verbs (or helper verbs) have
and has , as in, “I have gone fishing since I was a child.”

Of all the English verb tenses, the present perfect is one of the most complicated because
there's not always a direct translation into other languages. So in this guide, we explain
everything you need to know to use it perfectly, including how and when to use it, with plenty of
present perfect tense examples.

In the present perfect tense, the main verb always uses the auxiliary verb (helper verb)
has or has . The main verb takes a participle form, specifically the past participle. The past
participle is often the same form as the simple past form of the verb, unless it's an irregular verb,
which each have their own unique past participle form. We explain in more detail how to form
them in our guide to participles. Only the auxiliary verbs are conjugated to fit the subject verb
agreement in the present perfect tense; the past participle of the main verb remains the same no
matter what the subject is. Generally, you use have for all subjects except the singular third-
person, which instead uses has .

 First-person: I have come a long way.


 Second person: You have come a long way.
 Third-person plural: They have come a long way.
 Third-person singular: He/she/it has come a long way.

The present perfect tense has specific constructions for standard statements, negatives,
and questions, explained below. We also discuss how to use the present perfect tense with
adverbs and with the passive voice.

The present perfect tense for statements

For general statements, the most common use of the present perfect, use have or has plus the past
participle form of the main verb.

[ have / has ] + [past participle]

 Charlotte has become friends with Wilbur.


 We've broken up before, but this time feels different

4. Present Perfect Continuous Tense


States the present perfect continuous tense is used to emphasize the duration of ongoing
action or activity which began in the past and still continues to the present and possibly into the
future. As Martin (2006) said that the present perfect continuous tense is used in expressing the
idea of an activity (a task, a piece of work, etc ) in progress until recently or until the time of
speaking.

a verb in the present perfect continuous tense is formed from have or has and been ( as a second
auxiliary) and a present participle

a) Auxiliary verb has/have been

 Singular subject (He, she, it, and the name of a person or thing in singular) use the
auxiliary verb has
 Plural subject (you, were, they, and name of a person or things that are in plural) use
the auxiliary verb have

b) The present participle

Present participle is formed by adding - ing to the verb. The meaning of- ing is showing the
continuity of the action or activity.

Example :

speak + ing = speak

read + ing = reading

study + ing = study

Formula : Subject + has/have + been + Verb - ing (Continuous Form)

 Example Sentence (Positive): " I have been thinking about it ."


 Example Sentence (Negative): " I have not been thinking about it ."

5.  Simple Past Tense


The simple past tense, sometimes called the preterite , is used to talk about a completed
action in a time before now. The simple past is the basic form of past tense in English. The time
of the action can be in the recent past or the distant past and the duration of the action is not
important.

Examples

 John Cabot sailed to America in 1498.


 My father died last year.
 He lived in Fiji in 1976.
 We crossed the Channel yesterday.

Formula : Subject + Verb II (Past Form)

 Example Sentence (Positive): " They called their friends yesterday ."
 Example Sentence (Negative): " They did not call their friends yesterday ."
 Example Sentence (Question): " Did they call their friends yesterday ?"

Fortunately, there is a formula for making simple past negative verbs, and it's the same for both
regular and irregular verbs (except for the verb to be). The formula is did not + [root form of
verb]. You can also use the contraction didn't instead of did not.

The simple past is a verb tense that is used to talk about things that happened or existed
before now. Imagine someone asking what your brother Wolfgang did while he was in town last
weekend.

Example :

 Wolfgang entered a hula hoop contest.

 He won the silver medal.


The simple past tense shows that you are talking about something that has already
happened. Unlike the past continuous tense, which is used to talk about past events that
happened over a period of time, the simple past tense emphasizes that the action is finished.

Example : Wolfgang admired the way the light glinted off his silver medal.

You can also use the simple past to talk about a past state of being, such as the way
someone feels about something. This is often expressed with the simple past tense of the verb to
be and an adjective, noun, or prepositional phrase.

For regular verbs, add -ed to the root form of the verb (or just -d if the root form already ends in
an e):

 Play→Played

 Type→Typed

 Listen→Listened

 Push→Pushed

For irregular verbs, things get more complicated. The simple past tense of some irregular verbs
looks exactly like the root form:

 Put→Put
 Cut→Cut
 Sets→Sets
 Cost→Cost
 Hits→Hits

For other irregular verbs, including the verb to be, the simple past forms are more erratic:

 See→Saw
 Build→Built
 Go→Went
 Do → Did
 Rise→Rose
 Am/Is/ Are→Was /Were

The good news is that verbs in the simple past tense (except for the verb to be) don't need to
agree in number with their subjects.

Wolfgang polished his medal. The other winners polished their medals too.
6. Past Continuous Tense

Past continuous tense refers to/denotes those actions/events that were happening for a
particular time in the past. For example, "Sam was writing a letter to his friend." Here, 'was
writing' refers to an action that Sam was doing in the past.

The past continuous tense, also known as the past progressive tense, describes ongoing
actions in the past, such as I was writing my research paper all night. It uses the same
construction as the present continuous tense except with the past tense of the verb to be.

Common formula _ used : Subject + was/were + Verb - ing (Continuous Form)

 Example Sentence (positive): " I was washing my clothes when the phone rang ."
 Example Sentence (Negative): " I was not washing my clothes when the phone rang ."
 Example Sentence (Question): " Was I washing my clothes when the phone rang ?"

The Past Continuous tense is an important tense in English. We use it to say what we
were in the middle of doing at a particular moment in the past. In this lesson we look at the
structure and the use of the Past Continuous tense, followed by a quiz to check your
understanding.

The past continuous tense formula involves the past tense of to be (was or were) and the present
participle of the verb, the – ing form.

[was/were] + [present participle]

 While I was studying, my friends were playing.

Keep in mind that you must conjugate to match the subject. Use was for first- or third-person
singular subjects, such as I, he, she, or it.
 She was working on an e-mail when the fire alarm rang.

 The team was playing well until the second half.

 Use were for all other subjects, including all plural subjects and the singular second-
person subject, you.

 You were becoming a great novelist before switching to screenplays.

 The days were getting shorter as winter approached.

 Verbs you cannot use in the past continuous tense

As we explained in our grammar guide, there are certain types of verbs that cannot be
used in any continuous tense, including the past continuous tense. These are called stative verbs,
also known as state-of-being verbs or, fittingly, non-continuous verbs.

Stative verbs are less like actions and more like states or feelings. They describe
continuous states of mind, such as opinions, needs, or awareness. Some of the most common
examples of stative verbs include:

 believe

 disliked

 hated

 involve

 you know
7. Past Perfect Tense

In the case of past perfect tense, it tells us that an event happened in the past before
another event in the past. For example, the sentence Daniel had left by the time Erica got to his
house uses the past perfect tense to say that Daniel left his house before Erica arrived.

The Past Perfect tense in English is composed of two parts: the past tense of the verb to
have (had) + the past participle of the main verb.

 I had saved my document: before the computer crashed


 John had gone out: when I arrived at the office
 He was very tired: because he hadn't slept well
 When they arrived: we had already started cooking

Formula : Subject + had + Verb 3 (Past Participle Form)

 Example Sentence (Positive): " The girl had cried before her mother came ."
 Example Sentence (Negative): " The girl had not cried before her mother came ."
 Example Sentence (Question): "Had the girl cried before her mother came?"

The past perfect tense is for talking about something that happened before something
else. Imagine waking up one morning and stepping outside to grab the newspaper. On your way
back in, you notice a mysterious message scrawled across your front door: Tootles was here.
When you're telling this story to your friends later, how would you describe this moment? You
might say something like:

Example :I turned back to the house and saw that someone named Tootles had defaced my front
door!

Don't use the past perfect when you're not trying to convey some sequence of events. If your
friends asked what you did after you discovered the graffiti, they would be confused if you said:
I had cleaned it off the door.

They'd likely be wondering what happened next because using the past perfect implies
that your action of cleaning the door occurred before something else happened, but you don't say
what that something else is. The “something else” doesn't always have to be explicitly
mentioned, but the context needs to make it clear. In this case there's no context, so the past
perfect doesn't make sense.

How to make the past perfect negative

Making the past perfect negative is simple! Just insert not between had and [past participle].

Example : We looked to witnesses, but the neighbors had not seen Tootles in the act. If Tootles
had not included his own name in the message, we would have no idea who was behind it.

How to ask a question

The formula for asking a question in the past perfect tense is had + [subject] + [past participle].

Example : Had Tootles caused trouble in other neighborhoods before he struck ours?
8. Past Perfect Continuous Tense

The past perfect continuous tense (also known as the past perfect progressive tense)
shows that an action that started in the past continued up until another time in the past. The past
perfect continuous tense is constructed using had been + the verb's present participle (root + -
ing ).

Instead, the past perfect continuous tense denotes an action that started in the past,
continued in the past, and also ended at a certain point in the past. Example: He had been eating
cereal out of the box when Dad walked into the room.

Formula : Subject + had + been + Verb - ing (Continuous Form)

 Example Sentence (Positive): " She had been studying math all day ."
 Example Sentence (Negative): " She had not been studying math all day ."
 Example Sentence (Question): " Had she been studying math all day ?"

Unlike the present perfect continuous, which indicates an action that began in the past
and continued up to the present, the past perfect continuous is a verb tense that indicates
something that began in the past, continued in the past, and also ended at a defined point in the
past.

 He had been drinking milk out of the carton when Mom walked into the kitchen.
 I had been working at the company for five years when I got the promotion.

When, for, since, and before are words that you may see used alongside the past perfect
continuous tense.

 Martha had been walking three miles a day before she broke her leg.
 The program that was terminated had been working well since 1945.
 Cathy had been playing the piano for 35 years when she was finally asked to perform a
solo with the local orchestra.
 He had been throwing rocks at her window for five minutes before she finally came out
on the balcony and said, "Hey, Romeo."

the past perfect continuous tense (also known as the past perfect progressive tense) shows
that an action that started in the past continued up until another time in the past. The past perfect
continuous tense is constructed using had been + the verb's present participle (root + -ing ).

When we use the Past Perfect Continuous in speaking, we often contract the subject and
the first auxiliary verb. We also sometimes do this in informal writing.

I had been I'd been

you've been you'd been

he had been he'd been


she had beenit had she'd beenit'd been
been

we had been we'd been

they had been they'd been

 He'd been drinking all day.


 It'd been poured with rain.

In negative sentences, we may contract the first auxiliary verb and "not":

 We hadn't been living there long.


 They hadn't been studying very hard.
9. Simple Future Tense

The simple future refers to a time later than now, and expresses facts or certainty. In this
case there is no 'attitude'. The simple future is used: To predict a future event: It will rain
tomorrow.

The simple future verb tense has two different forms in English, will and is going to.
Although the two forms can sometimes be used interchangeably, they often express two very
different meanings: will is used for offers and will be used for plans.

Arrangement formula : Subject + will/be going to + Verb 1 (Present Form)

 Example Sentence (Positive): " She will come to the cinema tomorrow ."
 Example Sentence (Negative): " She will not come to the cinema tomorrow ."
 Example Sentence (Question): " Will she come to the cinema tomorrow ?"

The simple future verb tense has two different forms in English, will and is going to.
Although the two forms can sometimes be used interchangeably, they often express two very
different meanings: will is used for offers and will be used for plans. Read on for detailed
descriptions, examples, and simple future exercises.

the will form of simple future is made with will + verb. Questions are indicated by inverting the
subject and will . Negatives are made without .

 Statement: You will help him later.


 Question: Will you help him later?
 Negative: You will not help him later.

The be-going-to form of simple future is made using am/is/are + going to + verb. Questions are
indicated by inverting the subject and am/is/are. Negatives are made with notes.

 Statement: You are going to meet Jane tonight.


 Question: Are you going to meet Jane tonight?
 Negative: You are not going to meet Jane tonight.
The simple future tense is used to refer to actions or states that begin and end in the
future. These events have not happened yet, but will happen sometime in the future: I will meet
her at the mall. The monkeys will eat any bananas that their handlers give them.
10. Future Continuous Tense

The future continuous tense, also known as the future progressive tense, is a verb tense
that shows an ongoing action in the future. It is the future version of the present continuous
tense, which uses a similar construction. Future continuous: I will be watching my shows from
lunch to dinner.

In order to form the future continuous tense, we use the phrase that will be followed by
the present participle of the verb. The present participle is a form of the verb that ends in -ing .
For example, the present participle of swim is swimming.

Formula : Subject + will + be + Verb - ing (Continuous Form)

 Example Sentence (Positive): " He will be playing basketball in the playground


tomorrow morning ."
 Example Sentence (Negative): " He will not be playing basketball in the playground
tomorrow morning ."
 Example Sentence (Question): " Will he be playing basketball in the playground
tomorrow morning ?"

The Future Continuous tense is often used in English as a way to talk about something
happening at a given point in the future.

The Future Continuous tense expresses action at a particular moment in the future. The
action will have started before that moment but it will not have finished at that moment. For
example, tomorrow I will start work at 2pm and stop work at 6pm.

When we use the Future Continuous tense, our listeners usually know or understand what time
we are talking about. Look at these examples:

 I will be playing tennis at 10am tomorrow.


 They won't be watching TV at 9pm tonight.
 What will you be doing at 10pm tonight?
 What will you be doing when I arrive?
 She will not be sleeping when you call her.
 We'll be having dinner when the film starts.
 Take your umbrella. It will be raining when you return.

The future continuous tense is generally used to represent an event or action that is
happening at a certain point in time in the future. The tense is also called the future progressive
tense, as it denotes an action or event that is progressing or continuing at a particular time in the
future.

Have a look at how different dictionaries define the future continuous tense in order to
have a much better idea of what it is.
11. Future Perfect Tense

Future perfect tense used for disclose that there is something action to be done and
completed on time certain in the future . kindly simple , the use of this future perfect tense is
form of the word for show will someone related _ with future . _

Formula : Subject + will have + Verbs 3 (Past Participle Form)

 Example Sentence (Positive): " I will have finished my homework by tomorrow ."
 Example Sentence (Negative): " I will not have finished my homework by tomorrow ."
 Example Sentence (Question): " Will she have finished her homework by tomorrow ?"

We use the future perfect simple (will/won't have + past participle) to talk about something that
will be completed before a specific time in the future.

 The guests are coming at 8 pm I'll have finished cooking by then.


 On 9 October we'll have been married for 50 years.
 Will you have gone to bed when I get back?

We can use phrases like by or by the time (meaning 'at some point before') and in or in a day's
time / in two months' time / in five years' time etc. (meaning 'at the end of this period') to give the
time period in which the action will be completed.

 I won't have written all the reports by next week.


 By the time we arrive, the kids will have gone to bed.
 I'll have finished in an hour and then we can watch a film.
 In three years' time, I'll have graduated from university.

The future perfect is a verb tense used for actions that will be completed before some
other point in the future. The parade will end when Chester gets out of bed. At eight o'clock I
will have left.
Key words: Verbs, past participles, tenses, prepositions

The future perfect tense is for talking about an action that will be completed between now
and some point in the future. Imagine that your friend Linda asks you to take care of her cat for a
few days while she goes on a trip. She wants you to come over today at noon so she can show
you where to find the cat food and how to mash it up in the bowl just right so that Fluffy will
design to eat it. But you're busy this afternoon, so you ask Linda if you can come at eight o'clock
tonight instead.
12. Future Perfect Continuous Tense

The future perfect continuous, also sometimes called the future perfect progressive, is a
verb tense that describes actions that will continue up to a point in the future. The future perfect
continuous consists of will + have + been + the verb's present participle (verb root + - ing ).

Future Perfect Continuous Tense Examples :

April would have been gossiping in the coffee shop before she came here. Bob will have
been studying in the library before he comes to the class. We will have been shopping in that
market before you come home. We will have been watching a film in the Cineplex before you
come.

FORMULAS : Subject + will + have + been + Verb - ing

Example Sentence (Positive): "In December, I will have been working at my company for one
year."

Example Sentence (Negative): "I will not have been working at my company for one year in
December."

Example Sentence (Question): "In December, will you have been working at your company for
one year ?"

The future perfect continuous, also sometimes called the future perfect progressive, is a
verb tense that describes actions that will continue up to a point in the future. The future perfect
continuous consists of will + have + been + the verb's present participle (verb root + - ing ).

When we describe an action in the future perfect continuous tense, we are projecting
ourselves forward in time and looking back at the duration of that activity. The activity will have
begun sometime in the past, present, or in the future, and is expected to continue in the future.
Example :

 In November, I will have been working at my company for three years.

 At five o'clock, I will have been waiting for thirty minutes.

 When I turn thirty, I will have been playing piano for twenty-one years.

Remember that non-action verbs like to be, to seem, or to know are not suitable for the future
perfect continuous tense. Instead, these verbs take the future perfect tense, which is formed with
will + have + past participle.

Incorrect : On Thursday, I will have been knowing you for a week.

Correct : On Thursday, I will have known you for a week.

Incorrect :I will have been reading forty-five books by Christmas.

Corret : I will have read forty-five books by Christmas.


13. Past Future Tense

In English grammar, the future-in-the-past is the use of "would or was/were going to" to
refer to the future from the perspective of some point in the past. As illustrated below, other
verbs in the past progressive can also be used to convey this future-in-the-past perspective

Examples – Future Tense

 She'll write the e-mail after lunch.


 Don't lift that. You'll hurt yourself.
 You dropped your purse. ...
 I'll see you tomorrow.
 You'll get the answer by posting.
 Dan's going to take the order over to the customer.
 The girls are going to sing 'Amazing Grace' now.
 I'll drive you to your lesson at 4 pm.

Formula : Subject + would + Bare Infinitive or Subject + was/were + going to + Bare


Infinitive

Example :

Example Sentence (Positive): "She would forgive you" or "Giselle was going to give one
beautiful bag to her best friend."

Example Sentence (Negative): “She would not forgive you” or “Giselle wasn't going to give one
beautiful bag to her best friend.”

Example Sentence (Question): "Would she forgive you?" or “Was Giselle going to give one
beautiful bag to her best friend?”

In English grammar, the future-in-the-past is the use of " would or was/were going to" to refer to
the future from the perspective of some point in the past.
As illustrated below, other verbs in the past progressive can also be used to convey this future-in-
the-past perspective.

Also known as: Prediction in the past

Examples and Observations:

second noun type _ this distinguished in type common nouns and proper nouns . let 's go discuss
one by one :

What that  Common Nouns ?


If We translate to Indonesian , common means " general " alias general , or can also be called as
a noun generic . common nouns is name or still items _ characteristic general from something
group or category . Due to its nature that , one type of noun this no could written use alphabet
capital , except if poured at the start sentence or be included in a title . Example as following
( example common nouns ):
 City ( city )
 Month ( month )
 Girl (girl)

if you consider the five examples above , whether there is any other information we have can ?
Yep , nope there . We don't know city what do you mean month what to choose , etc . Example
sentence common nouns :

The girl crossed the river. (That girl cross river .) Well, girls like what , the heck , that crossed
river the ? Then, what name the river ? How condition the river ? In sentence the no explained in
a manner specific . So from that , girl and river above _ including commonnouns .

Proper Nouns
Yep, exactly . Type noun this is hyponym from common nouns . What that proper nouns ? So,
the proper noun is name Specific of people, things , places , etc. Moment use proper nouns,
usually We must use alphabet capitalize the written noun . _ Example proper noun ( proper noun
example ):

Following example sentence proper noun ( proper noun example ):

prefix alphabet vowel ).
 Form plural ( plural ) nouns suffix -s and -es . Material regarding the added word
suffix aka suffix can you check back in the article  Definition & Miscellaneous Suffix
shape
 Not seldom also prefixed with the, some, any, a few, few , and many .

If using some, any , a few, few, and many , then must followed characteristic nouns _ plural /
plural.

Example countable nouns :

 A cat ( a cat ), an apple ( a apple )


 One table ( one table )
 Three chairs ( three chair )
 Some clothe s ( several clothes)

Because of the amount the chair more from one , then in part end added -s . That is , chair the

don't until you mistaken yes , because there is difference Among some and any are possible
seldom noticed . Though both of them could Becomes prefix for countable noun and uncountable
noun , but We no can apply it in all type sentence .

 Can you give me some water ? ( Can you give am I water?)
Assumptions answer from question this that is he can give water.

 I'm not going to buy any milk . (I don't will buy any milk .)
 Is there any milk in the fridge ? ( Was is there milk in the refrigerator ?)
You could Use example like this if assumption the answer is no there is milk in the fridge
.

Remember yes ! Uncountable nouns will always considered singular. So you no need add -s or -
es at the end of a noun .

Basically , hair _ no common for counted . But , he can Becomes countable nouns when are in a
situation certain . Example the sentence : I see a hair on the floor . ( Me look a hair on the
floor . ) But hair there no will can started with a when the situation already different .

4. Articles

An article is a word used to modify a noun, which is a person, place, object, or idea.
Technically, an article is an adjective, which is any word that modifies a noun. Usually
adjectives modify nouns through description, but articles are used instead to point out or refer to
nouns. There are two different types of articles that we use in writing and conversation to point
out or refer to a noun or group of nouns: definite and indefinite articles.

Definite Articles

Let's start by looking at the definite article. This article is the word 'the,' and it refers
directly to a specific noun or group of nouns.

For example:

 the freckles on my face

 the alligator in the pond

 the breakfast burrito on my plate

Each noun or group of nouns being referred to - in these cases freckles, alligator, and breakfast
burrito - is direct and specific.

Indefinite Articles
Indefinite articles are the words 'a' and 'an.' Each of these articles is used to refer to a
noun, but the noun being referred to is not a specific person, place, object, or idea. It can be any
noun from a group of nouns. For example:

 a Mercedes from the car lot

 an event in history

In each case, the noun is not specific. The Mercedes could be any Mercedes car available for
purchase, and the event could be any event in the history of the world.

For say speed , price , ratio , and others. Rp. 10.000/ kg , 45 km an hour , twice a day.

 Cristian Ronaldo plays football twice a day.


 Valentino rossi drive car speed is 60 km an hour.
 The apple is Rp. 30,000, a kg.
For say sentence exclamation in the singular noun :

 What a nice book!


 What a handsome boy!
 What an interesting song!

Elimination of Articles a and an

a and an no worn if :

a. Before plurals ( objects plural ).

b. Before uncoutable noun ( an object that is not could counted ).

 They drink water.


 We eat rice.
c. Before menu name , except followed by an adjective or for respect .

 I have dinner at a famous restaurant.


 I have a good dinner today ( using article because there is an adjective before ).
Definite Articles
The definite article is the article certain . The object in question already clear sure , nothing
else. The definite article is "the".

Examples and Functions of the Article "The"

Formula Question Tags
There are necessary formulas and rules you remember in make question tags. Among them are :

 When sentence statement use linking verb "be" (is, am, are, was, were ), then questions
also use be .
 If sentence statement use primary auxiliary verbs (be, do, have) or modal auxiliary verb
(will, would, may, might, can, could, shall, should) so question use the first auxiliary verb
( if there is more from one ).
 If sentence question use main verb besides linking verb "be" and without
accompanied auxiliary verb, so “do/does/did” will used in make question tags.
 If sentence form ban or command , then question started with "will you".
 If sentence question use subject not Specific like nobody, everybody, no one, and
everyone, so you must pin they in question tags.
 Reported from study.com , if sentence beginning negative , the question tag must be
positive . Otherwise , if sentence beginning positive , question tags must shaped positive .
Example :
o The weather is nice outside today, isn't it?
o The clouds aren't coming back, are they?

Intonation Question Tags
Aim from use question tags is for ask information or request agreement to opponent talk . when
you use it for ask information , position speaker no know is information the Correct or wrong.

on condition such , question given emphasis with intonation up or also known as rising


intonation . On the other hand , when question used for request agreement , speaker convinced
that known information _ true , however expect validating answer _ his wish .

On the situation that question tags are pronounced without emphasis with intonation down or
called as falling intonation.

Problems intonation this apply if you speak in a manner live with other people. In writing ,
all question tags have same shape . _
So, besides be careful in write you need too be careful in pronunciation . If the intonation you
Use wrong , maybe opponent talk rather confused and can be misunderstood .

function in sentence is give description addition to nouns (which include people, things , or
animal ). In English , relative clause always preceded with relative pronoun ( this relative
pronoun n used as change nouns , noun phrases and pronouns ).
There is a number of relative pronouns or pronoun _ relatively ordinary _ used in relative clause
. Pronouns _ this placed in front relative clause. function is for refers to the noun in the
sentence . Members included _ to in relative pronouns is who, which, whom, that, and whose .

Types of Relative Clause


Relative clauses are divided Becomes two type , that is defining relative clause and non-defining
relative clause . Both of them used for give information with different classification . _ Defining
relative clauses and non-defining relative clauses have different essence _ in a sentence . What
just yes approximately the difference ? Live just watch _ explanation below _ this !
Defining Relative Clauses
Defining relative clauses used for give information urgent about noun in the form of a person or
thing . Information provided _ is information that can give clear understanding _ about
somebody or thing . In defining relative clause, the relative pronoun used is 'that' or 'which'
( used as a substitute word nouns that are not people), whereas for pronouns _ nouns in the form
of 'people' use relative pronouns 'that' and 'who'
Example Defining Relative Clauses:

phone last night )

still can understand what is meant . On the example first clear that ' Pasha ' is the one who
already is gave ' me ' the cake repeat year . Meanwhile in the example secondly , obviously that
broken thing _ is 'my camera'.

14. Active and Passive Voices

Active and Passive Verbs

Talk about meaning of active and passive voice, deep matter this active verb will form an active
voice whereas a passive verb will form passive voice. verb _ active is results from the subject
performing the action in sentence . A verb _ passive will produce the subject that gets the action
or subject in sentence active Becomes object in passive sentence .

Voice Type

 ActiveVoice
In language English , way best for write and talk almost always use active voice. Basically ,
active voice helps clarify sentence so that more easy for give information to readers nor listener .
With use of active voice, subject in sentence will perform an action or could We say if subject
Becomes active . For example just is on some sentence following .

People burned the leaves. ( people burn _ leaves )

Here , people (S) burned (V) the leaves (O). Could seen if the verb is after subject .

He holds my hand. ( he hold my hand )

Here, he (S) holds (V) the hand (O); deep "he". sentence above _ performs the action “hold.”

My father read some books. ( my father read a number of book )

From the sentence above , the subject is my father (S), read as a verb (V) or a verb active and
some books is object (O).

 Passive Voice
Because of us more often write nor talk using active voice, no there is his fault if we also study
vice versa from the active voice that is passive voice. Possible part from We once hear if passive
voice is not the right idea for used in delivery of ideas. this _ caused because passive voice will
change focus sentence .

With passive voice, subject no do action instead get action or subject become passive. order
more understand about matter this , following example the sentence .

The leaves were burned by people . ( leaves burned by people) (Passive Voice)

People burned the leaves . ( people burn _ leaves ) (Active Voice)

Can be seen if in passive voice leaves is focus because Becomes subject in sentence . But very
clear in sentences second that is sentence active which is meaning sentence more easy for
accepted because telling you who burned the leaves.
With use passive voice sometimes subject Becomes no identified so that sentence will feels not
enough explain what does the verb in sentence the . Example sentence other is as following .

My hand was bitten. ( my hand bitten )

Here we are no know who or what bites _ in sentence the because in a sentence only state that
hand bitten . If added with object sentence the can Becomes like this :

My hand was bitten by the dog. ( My hand bitten by a dog ) (Passive voice)

The dog bit my hand. ( dog bite my hands ) (Active Voice)

From the sentences above , we know who was bitten but method telling you situation the
permanent in a manner no live because there is a passive voice. because _ it , will more good if
in writing nor talk for avoid use passive voice with action voice.

Then , indeed the passive voice will sound more formal if compared to with active voice.
However , its use precisely will confusing if is in a good sentence long . Usually a number of
problem following will found when use deep passive voice long sentences . _

– less clear and difficult understood

– focus on the wrong part of the statement

– sounded strange

Identify Active and Passive Voices

The easiest way for identifying active and passive voice is see the verb or verbs used . _ For
passive voice usually will combined with "to be".

Passive voice:
The popcorn was eaten by them. (was + eaten)

The popcorn has been eaten by them. ( has been + eaten)

For change it Becomes sentence active , then We must change it Becomes like this .

Active voice:

They ate the popcorn. ( ate , without there is a "to be")

With the use of active voice rather than passive voice, writing will Becomes more clear and
effective .

Use of Passive Voice

Although the passive voice tends to more avoided , but its use could Becomes choice appropriate
in a number of matter certain . Here you are can use deep passive voice formal documents and
reports research which action or object Becomes important thing _ in a sentence . Can we see
example below _ this .

Other scientists reviewed the research about trees. ( para other scientists review repeat research
about tree ) (Active voice)

The meaning conveyed far more good in the following passive sentences .

The research about trees was reviewed by other scientists. ( research about tree reviewed
repeated by other scientists )

Information important want _ be delivered in sentence the is the research was reviewed. this _
caused because report the discuss about trees no other scientists.

Besides that , the use of passive voice will far better if _ We emphasize a object than subject .
See example as following .
Passive voice:

The fox's cozy home was visited by many of his friends. ( comfortable house _ visited many his
friend )

Active voice:

Many friends visited the fox's cozy home. ( a lot friend visit comfortable house ) _

Because the focus wants be delivered writer is house that has many visited , then more passive
voice selection right .

Formula Active and Passive Voice

Active:

[tableid=83 /]

passive:

Whereas for passive formula , will there is placing “ to be ” in front of the verb as following . To
be meant will customized with the tenses used in sentence .

[tableid=84 /]

In active and passive verbs, there are 2 types category of verb used that is regular and irregular
verbs or verb _ regular and not order .
15. If Conditionals

conditional sentences is sentences used _ for related assumptions _ with because


consequences and possibilities happening something . Conditional sentences in language English
usually started with the word "if" or " if ".
Conditional Sentence Structure
In terms of structure , conditional sentence usually consists from two clause that is if clause and
main clause separated by commas . If clause is clause that contains supposition , while play
clause is consequence from condition supposition the .
Usually one sentence conditional sentences there is with logic :
“If something condition right , then will raises something as result .”
Example : “If I try more hard , then I will it worked .”

4 Types of Conditional Sentences and Examples

Conditional Sentence Type 0


Conditional sentences this used for describe fact or truth common already _ sure . For example ,
if you heat the water, the water will boiling . Already certain occur right ?
For conditionals type this is the formula is as following :
If + simple present tense, simple present tense
Example :
o If you heat water, it boils. (If you heat the water, the water will boiling .)
o If you freeze water, it becomes ice. (If you freeze the water, the water will to ice.)
Also read: Simple Present Tense, the Most Frequent Tense Used in English _
Conditional Sentences Type 1
Conditional sentence type 1 is used for describe possible situation _ or presumed happen in the
future and have big possibility _ for truly happened . The formula is as following :
If + simple present tense, simple future

Example :
o If you study, you will pass the exam. (If you study , you will pass the test .)
o If you wash your hands, you won't get sick. (If you wash hand , you no will sick .)
In second the sentence above means _ there is possibility situation the no happened . For
example even if study , can just permanent did not pass. Or although wash hands , fixed can
sick . However , still there is possibility big that you will pass the test ( sentence first ) and no
sick ( sentence second ).
Conditional Sentences Type 2
Different a little from conditionals type 1, conditional type 2 is used for describe situation that is
not realistic or have very possibility _ small for happened . For example imagine something it
doesn't possible or daydreaming . Formula conditionals type 2 is as following :
If + past tense, would + infinitive

Example :
o If I were you, I would rest right now. (If I is you , me will rest now .)
o If you owned a theme park, what would you do? (If you have garden entertainment , what
will _ you do ?)
In sentence first , obviously situation the no realistic . No maybe ' I ' can to be ' you '. In sentence
secondly , there is chances are ' you ' will have garden entertainment , however possibility the
very small .
Which is also necessary noticed is the use of ' were ' in sentence first . You possible ask , I not do
you use ' was ' ? Well, deep conditional sentences type 2, all subject good that single or plural
everything use were . So was same very no worn yes .
The word would also work replaced with a number of auxiliary verb other like could or might .

Conditional Sentences Type 3


If from conditional types 1 and 2 talk about unfinished condition _ occurs , conditional type 3 is
used for refer to the past and wonder how situation moment this can different if that happened in
the past different . The formula is as following :
If + past perfect, would have + V3

Example :
o If I had done my homework, I would have been able to play now. (If only I already doing
my homework , i now can play .)
o If she hadn't tried, she wouldn't have gotten the scholarship. (If only he no try , he no will
get scholarship .)
That is , clause main in second sentence above _ no truly happened . 'I' don't can play now
because in fact not yet doing homework. ' He ' in fact get scholarship because he has try .
If summarized , formula fourth type conditional sentences is as following :

type If Clause Play Clause

0 simple present tense simple present tense

1 simple present tense simple futures

2 simple past tense would + V1

3 past perfect tense would have + V3


16. Gerund

Gerund is a verb or so - called with added verbs suffix – ing . However , the gerund works no as
a verb in a sentence however as a noun or called with nouns.

Gerund as subject sentence


For those of you that might still confused what that subject , subject is clause or a noun that
describes or mark what the speaker is talking about and what is certain subject is a noun .
Because gerund is a noun , so gerund can role as subject sentence . Following examples _ _ for
more understand deep gerund form sentence , let's understand example below _ this ;

 Studying makes me smart ( learning make I smart )


 Doing sport makes me healthy ( exercise make I healthy )
In fact , the words” studying and doing” deep sentence above _ is subject from acting sentences _
as a gerund and the word “ makes” is function as a verb main or play verbs. Next , as information
just here that 2 sentences above _ is sentence from the present simple tense huh !
 Gerund as object sentence
before We discuss what good We know especially formerly what anyway object that in
sentence . So, objects is the sentence applied deed or noun . _ By and large object position is at
after the verb . Like example below _ this one uses the gerund as object sentence .

 I like watching movies ( me like watching movies)


 She enjoys listening to music ( dia like listening to music)
From the second In the example above the words “ watching and listening” play a role as the
gerund after the verb “like and enjoy”. So , the question why We need a deep gerund sentence
this ? The explanation is if you don't use the definite gerund the sentence like this :
 I like watching movies. (wrong)

 I enjoy listening to music (false).

structure sentence above _ is wrong because has 2 verbs and in one sentence there is the word
"like and watch". In general , one sentence  in English _ no recommended for use 2 verbs in 1
sentence . because _ it , us need use the gerund in sentence order his Becomes right . Next , the
gerund function is used after preposition .

Gerunds are used after preposition


is something already _ once hear preposition or prepositions? preposition is a word that has
connection mean with nouns . _ Thus , preposition used for connects nouns , people, objects in
sentence .

Following is examples of possible prepositions _ already you ever know previously like the
words after, before, at, in, on, with, by, for, of. Preposition this used before nouns _ yes . So ,
now We clay use of the gerund after preposition .
 I am good at studying math
 He is interested in singing
 Thanks for watching
 By reading books, we get knowledge
 I am live within my means. I don't like the idea of spending a lot of money

Finally , from the examples above _ _ have you ever use it in English conversation ? _

Gerund as a compound word (compound noun)


As example below _ this ;

1. there are many smoking areas in my city ( ada many the place special smoking in town i )
2. my father is repairing the washing machine ( my father currently repair machine wash )
We sure are often very yes look compound word examples like example above . _ because _
that , can said that the role of the gerund in sentence is very urgent for is known yes !

As addition , after We study meaning and use of the gerund in sentence , now We get to know
the list of verbs what just always _ using gerunds. Following is a list of verbs that you need to
know when learn gerunds;

Example :

1. I don't mind repeating once again my explanation ( me no object for repeat very
again explanation i )
2. My English teacher told me that I should keep learning (said the language teacher
England I that I should permanent keep going study )
3. My brother postponed traveling to Bali last week ( my brother postpone journey to
bali ).

In fact , understand use of the inner gerund sentence language England will feels easy if you
have serious intention . _ because _ that , you must can memorize the words only can _ followed
with the gerund for can make good and true sentence . _ In conclusion , gerund plasticity like a
verb but function as a noun .

17. To Infinitive

Infinitives as a unit consisting of to and the simple form of any verb which performs a
single function in a sentence pattern ( Praninskas , 1959:96). The structure of the infinitive can
be formulated as follows: Infinitives = to + simple-form verb
Examples : to understand to communicate to coordinate to simplify

Examples of infinitive forms:

Present infinitive : to work, to do

Present continuous infinitive : to be working, to be

Perfect infinitive : to have worked, to have done : to have been working,

Perfect continuous infinitive : to be done

Present infinitive passive Perfect infinitive passive : to have been done

There are 3 types of infinitives in language England , that is bare infinitive, full infinitive, and
split infinitive.

1. Bare Infinitive
Bare infinitive is type the complement of the verb that is not preceded with particle to . Kind of
familiar too with designation the zero infinitive .

Usually bare infinitive used in a sentence in certain words , namely :

a. Modal verbs
Modal verbs are part from functioning auxiliary verb as a verb help for state is a sentence is must
, ability , possibility , permission , or even ban .

Well , that includes modals example is can, could, may, might, must, shall, should, will, and
would.

So, modals could combined with bare infinitive for express appropriate atmosphere _ with


condition si speaker .

Besides that's a combination Among modals and bare infinitive could function for replace main


verb in a sentence . Example sentence bare infinitive :
There might (to) be a better plan for our marketing strategy .
( Maybe there is more plans _ good for our marketing strategy .)

b. Special cases
 

 For verbs _ bid, let, watch, see, make, help, and hear, them could positioned as combined
bare infinitives with another infinitive . Well , the rules this also applies to "had better"
and "had rather".

Meaning , you can make a sentence with structure subject + modals +


let/watch/see/make/help/hear/had better/had rather + bare infinitives ( others ).

Example sentence :
The whole G20 participants heard her (to) sing the Indonesian National Anthem. ( Whole
G20 participants heard it sing song Indonesian nationality .)

 verb _ dare and need could take form bare infinitives in circumstances certain .


Example sentence : How dare you (to) end this relationship? Need I (to) ask why you hurt
me? ( How dare you end connection this ? Is it necessary I ask why you hurt me ?)

2. Full Infinitive
full infinitive is the infinitive that comes before it added with to . Yep , this is type already
infinitive _ We discuss since early .

Remember , when you use full infinitive , then particle to his position already enter as verbs , no
as a word  preposition .

A number of function full infinitive is as following :

a. State aim or answer the "why" question


Example sentence :

Nanda went to her friend's house to play computer games.


(Nanda leaves to House her friend for play computer games .)

b. The full infinitive is used after the verb particular category included _ _ thinking, feeling, and
saying

Example sentence :

Alfi lovesto sing rock songs.


( Alfi like sing rock song .)

There , loves includes a related verb _ _ with feeling or feeling verb .

c. Be included after the adjective certain for give reason or opinion

Listen example following :

I'm sad to leave you again.


( Me sad leave you again .)

Example sentence above _ disclose expression that you sad because must leave he again .

3.Split Infinitives
Split infinitives are a condition when there is separating phrase _ between to and infinitive.

A number of expert grammar state that this type of infinitive no deserve and should avoided in
writing formal text or _ _ official .

Take note example following :

At the apex of its ascent, the falcon stopped swiftly and suddenly dive at its prey.
(At the top the ascent , eagle stop with fast and sudden swooping to direction prey .)

Though , by grammar will more good written like this :


At the apex of its ascent, the falcon stopped to dive swiftly and suddenly at its prey.
(At the top the ascent , eagle stop for swooping with fast and sudden to direction prey .)

There are three function main from infinitives, that is can used for nouns, adjectives, and adverbs
.

1. Infinitive as nouns ( nouns )


Still remember material about nouns ? _ Yep , nouns is designation for all something that covers
humans , animals , places , plants , even thoughts , ideas and thoughts .

When the infinitive is used as subject or object live in a sentence , then the infinitive Act as noun
.

You could understand it with look example following this :

a. I like to play mobile legends alone.


(I like playing mobile legend alone .)

 In the sentence above , which plays a role as a verb is 'like'.


 'To play' is infinitive that accepts action from 'like' and it works as directobject.
 'To play' also plays a role as noun for express a thought .

b. To join the essay competition is Hani's biggest dream.


( Following competition essay is dream Hani 's greatest .)

 In sentence the , 'is' comes into play as a verb, and 'to join' is answering infinitive _ the
question 'what is Hani's biggest dream?'
 'To join' comes into play Becomes subject sentence with function as noun .

2. Infinitive as an adjective
Adjective _ is a word that works for add information from noun ( noun ). So,
when infinitive used as adjectives , then he will change or explain noun .
Example in sentence below _ this :

(Reza needs lamp for read .)

 There , 'needs' works as verb , and 'lamp' is noun .
