1:
Verb + Object + Infinitive
a) Want ask expect help mean (= intend) would like
would prefer
3
After help you can use the infinitive with or
without “to”:
- Can somebody help me (to) move this
table?
Be especially careful with want. Do not say 'want
that...’:
-Everyone wanted him to win the race. (not
'wanted that he won")
-Do you want me to come early? (not 'want
that I come")
Tell force invite enable teach (how)
b) Persuade get (- persuade) remin order warn

Here is an example in the passive:
- I was warned not to touch anything.

c) Advise recommend encourage allow permit

for strong advice give advice (not as
strong as the
words above)
have to = used for
must = used for
strong advice,
strong advice,
obligations, and rules
obligation, and rules
11
• You must brush your teeth.
(This is an obligation. It doesn’t suggest a danger.)
• You should brush your teeth.
(This is just advice. You are saying it would be a good idea.)
Negative Sentences:
You must not touch the alligator.
(This is a rule.)
You do not have to touch the alligator.
(The modal have to in a negative
sentence means something is not necessary
(but still an option). It doesn’t make sense
here.) 13
You should not the alligator.
(This is advice)
You had better not totouchuch the
alligator.
(The danger: If you do, it will bite you.)
14
Note: Because had better is
used only when there
is a risk of danger, it
is not natural to use
it when nothing bad
will happen if the
advice isn’t followed.
15
Want big impact? Use big image.

Part 2: Reflexive Pronouns
A reflexive pronoun is a specific type of pronoun
that is used for the object of a verb when it
refers to the same noun as the subject of that
verb. In English, these are the pronouns that end
with “self” or “selves”: e.g., “himself,”
“myself,” “ourselves,” etc.

The following can be considered a rule with
regards to reflexive pronouns:
If the object and the subject of a verb
are the same, use a reflexive pronoun for the
object. Otherwise, do not use one.

A tag question is a special construction in
English. It is a statement followed by a
mini-question. We use tag questions to ask
for confirmation. They mean something
like: "Is that right?" or "Do you agree?"
They are very common in English.
