An infinitive is a verbal, a verb form or construction that plays the role of a different part of speech in a sentence. to+verb

Narrative tenses

Narrative tenses are verb tenses that are used to talk about the past. You can often find them in stories, textbooks, spoken accounts and in descriptions of past events.

Passive tense

What is it?

Passive voice: Object + Verb + Subject.

The passive voice is your friend when the thing receiving an action or the action itself is the important part of the sentence

Relative clauses and Quantifiers

A relative pronoun is a word like “that” or “which” or “who”, so a relative clause is a clause that begins with a relative pronoun.

Quantifiers are very important words because they let us express the quantity of something. There are several quantifiers in English and they can be a little tricky to use.

Structure of relative clauses:Object+ Relative pronoun+ Pronoun /Noun+ Main verb Structure of Quiantifiers: Noun+ verb+ quantifier

Perfect tenses and continuous

It´s used to depict an action or event that started in the recent past and is still continuing at the time when the speaker is referring to it.

Structure:has/have been + the present participle (root + -ing).

A modal verb is a kind of auxiliary verb that is used to express modalities (the states or 'modes' in which a thing exists) such as possibility, ability, prohibition and necessity.

Articles. Different ways of giving a emphasis

An article is a word that is used to indicate that a noun is a noun without describing it. Structure: begin with an abstract and then include its introduction, methods used, results, analysis, and discussion.

Hypothetical situations

Hypothetical situations are situations that we imagine. There are specific English grammar structures, phrases and forms to express hypothetical situations.

Structure:If+Simple past+would+infinitive verb

Reporting speech and verbs

When we tell someone what another person said, we often use the verbs say, tell or ask. These are called 'reporting verbs'. However, we can also use other reporting verbs. Many reporting verbs can be followed by another verb in either an infinitive or an -ing form.

Forming adjectives

Adjectives can be formed by joining two or more words together. Such adjectives are called compound adjectives. They are usually separated using a hyphen. For example, well-known, brightly-lit, twenty-storey.

Future forms

Making predictions in English. You can use both will and going to to make predictions. ... Future plans and arrangements. ... Unplanned future. .. . Future schedules. ... Events in progress at a time in the future. ... Events that will be completed by a time in the future. ... Final tip.
