Hi
Can sombody explain to me, why we use the ing-form after a preposition ??
Hello everyone,
I am reading in Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English. They wrote:
---------------------------
WORD CHOICE: unless, if ... not
Use 'unless' to say that something will happen or be true if something else does not happen or is not true : Unless they get protection, they will not testify.
!! Do not use the future tense after 'unless' : I won't go unless you go (NOT unless you will go).
!! Do not say 'unless if' : Don't call him unless it's urgent (NOT unless if it's urgent).
Hi,
Is this sentence written correctly?
"by carefully reviewing"
I know that the adverb can use in front of adjective but after "by"?
Can you please explain in details? Thanks
The third conditional is quite complex. Read the information below to help you understand it, then see if you can convert the following sentences into the third conditional. Good luck!
The third conditional is used:
To talk about 'impossible' conditions. They are impossible because they happened in the past and we cannot change them.
It is formed in the following way:
i have a Problem with english grammar
i can't know the difference of the n. ,adj ,adv and the verb
What should I do
We often use the present simple with adverbs of frequency:
never, hardly ever, usually, sometimes, often, always
Adverbs of frequency go before the main verb:
I usually wake up at 7am.
Adverbs of frequency go after "be":
He’s always late.
The Words "little" and "few" mean the same .
What exactly is the difference between the two?
Till date I was of the view that "little" is used to denote uncountable quantity and "few" is used to measure "countable" quantity.
Any other differences between the two.
Please clarify.
Today's lesson looks at as soon as, while and as. There are three activities for you to try.
We use as soon as when the second action happens immediately after the first action. As soon as is an example of an adverb clause, which is often called a time clause.
