Stop using the wrong tense
🤔 In English, using the wrong tense can completely change the meaning of a sentence 📖 or even make it confusing or incorrect.
😏 Imagine saying ❌ “Did you went?” instead of “✅ Did you go?” it’s a small mistake, but it instantly signals poor grammar and weak communication 🚫
✋🏽 We’ve carefully collected 34 common mistakes and organized them into 5 focused lessons. 💪🏽 Let’s fix your tense mistakes, one smart step at a time.
📝 Lesson⁴
22. Use the simple past for past habits—not past continuous
❪✘❫Last year I was walking to school every day.
❪✓❫ Last year I walked to school every day.
📔 Use past continuous only when describing an action happening during another past event.
❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
23. Use the past perfect when one past action happened before another
❪✘❫The train already left before I arrived.
❪✓❫ The train had already left before I arrived.
📔 Past perfect shows that one action was completed before another past action.
❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
24. Don’t use past perfect unless there’s another past action
❪✘❫I had finished the book yesterday.
❪✓❫ I finished the book yesterday.
📔 Past perfect needs context—another past verb—to make sense.
❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
25. Use present tense in time clauses with future verbs
❪✘❫I'll see you when I shall come back.
❪✓❫ I'll see you when I come back.
📔 In time clauses (after "when", "before", "after"), use present tense even if the main verb is future.
❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
26. Use present tense in "if" clauses for future conditionals
❪✘❫If he'll ask me, I will stay.
❪✓❫ If he asks me, I will stay.
📔 Use present in the "if" clause, and future in the main clause. Exception: requests like “If you will…” are allowed.
❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
27. Use past tense after "as if" or "as though"
❪✘❫Janine talks as if she knows everything.
❪✓❫ Janine talks as if she knew everything.
📔 These phrases suggest an unreal or imagined situation—use past tense. With "to be", use "were": He acts as if he were rich.

Intelligence
@Listen_Closely
People say intelligence is a lot more attractive than beauty. I often ask people if they would prefer a partner who is intelligent or good looking. They almost always say they want someone who is intelligent. I wonder why it is some of us are so intelligent and others aren't. Surely we are all born with a similar level of intelligence. I'm not really sure how intelligent I am Sometimes I think I'm intelligent but then I do something really dumb or I meet someone who is super brainy who makes me feel unintelligent One day I'm going to take one of those intelligence tests to measure my IQ Another thing I don't get about intelligence is how people think our leaders are so intelligent but then the leaders do such stupid things Do intelligent people start wars?

Meat
@Listen_Closely
🍖 Meat لحمة
I'm a big meat eater. I love meat of all kinds. I have eaten all sorts of meat. Even though I love meat, I could easily stop eating it, and I don't think I'd miss it. A long time ago I heard the vegetarian slogan, meat is murder. If you think about it, that's true. I don't think animals are here today for us to eat, especially when we don't need to eat meat. And then there's the threat of global warming today. Raising animals needs land. Many forests are cut down to raise cows for meat. This really has to stop. Instead of meat, there are other things we could have. Dairy products would give us the protein we need. I know a lot of people who could never give up meat. They always say it would be impossible to go without a big juicy steak.
