Could is the past tense of Can, in this sense, Could refers to some ability that someone had in the past

🔊 Prepositions 🔊

A preposition is a word governing, and usually coming in front of, a noun or pronoun and expressing a relation to another word or element.

🔔 Example 🔔

💭 She left before breakfast.

💭 What did you come for ?



🔺 A preposition is followed by a "noun".

Subject ➕ verb ➕ preposition ➕ "noun"

🔔 Example 🔔

💭 The book is on the table.
💭 He lives in Ethiopia.

🔺 A preposition cannot be followed by a verb.

👉 If we want to follow a preposition by a verb, we must use the "ing" form which is really a gerund or verb in noun form.

🔔 Example 🔔

💭 She isn't used to working.
💭 I ate before coming.
===========================
Conditional sentences 🔊

Conditional Type 1⃣
☑️Keyword: Real

Often called the "real" conditional because it is used for real or possible situations. These situations take place if a certain condition is met. It is possible and also very likely that the condition will be fulfilled. We don't know for sure whether the condition actually will be fulfilled or not, but the conditions seems rather realistic – so we think it is likely to happen.

♦️ FORM ♦️

🔺If ➕ Simple Present ➕ , ➕ Simple Future

🔺Simple Future ➕ If ➕ Simple Present

🔔 Example 🔔

💭 If I have enough time, I'll read the magazine.
💭 I'll tell her if I see her.
===========================
🔊 Conditional Sentences 🔊

Conditional Type 2⃣
☑️Keyword: Unreal

Often called the "unreal" conditional because it is used for unreal impossible or improbable situations.

🔸 This conditional provides an imaginary result for a given situation. It is very unlikely that the condition will be fulfilled. Generally, Conditional Sentences Type 2 refer to an action in the present that could happen if the present situation were different.

🔴 In conditional type 2, we usually use "were" instead of "was" even if the pronoun is I, he, she or it. "were" here is a subjunctive form.

👉 NOTE "was" is also a possible form.

♦️ FORM ♦️

🔺If ➕ Simple Past ➕ , ➕ Would ➕ Base Verb

🔺Would ➕ Base Verb ➕ If ➕ Simple Past

🔔 Example 🔔

💭 If I were a millionaire, I would buy a mansion.
💭 I would bring her back to life if I knew necromancy.
===========================
🔊 Conditional Sentences 🔊

Conditional Type 3⃣
☑️Keyword: Impossible

Conditional Sentences Type 3 refer to situations in the past. They express hypothetical results to past given situations. These situations can never be real, because they refer to things in the past that cannot be changed.

♦️ FORM ♦️

🔺If ➕ Past Perfect ➕ , ➕ Would ➕ Have ➕ Past Participle

🔺Would ➕ Have ➕ Past Participle ➕ If ➕ Past Perfect

🔔 Example 🔔

💭 If he had been careful, he wouldn't have had that terrible accident.
💭 She wouldn't have gone to her brother's house if he had been honest with her.

⚜ Grammar Lesson ⚜

🔉 State verbs and Action verbs 🔉

A state means something staying the same.

The flat is clean.
The farmer owns the land.

❗️State verbs cannot usually be continuous. Not: The farmer is owning the land ❌

An action means something happening.

I'm cleaning the flat.
The farmer is buying the land.

❗️Action verbs can be simple or continuous.

1) He put / He was putting everything away.
2) I think / I'm thinking etc.
🆔 @AmEnglish
〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰
Sometimes we can use a verb either for a state or for an action.

🌸 States (simple tenses) 🌸

I "think" you're right (= believe).
We "have" three cars (= own).

🌸 Actions (simple or continuous) 🌸

I'm "thinking" about the problem.
We're "having" lunch (eating).
〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰
These examples with the verb "Be" are about how people behave:

Permanent Quality:
Claire "is" a very sociable person.
That man "is" an idiot.

Temporary Quality:
Andrew "is being" very sociable today.
You "are being" an idiot this morning.

❗️We use am/are/is being only to talk about behavior, not about other things.
〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰
👉 Sometimes we can use either the simple or the continuous with no difference in meaning.

You look well. Or You're looking well.
We feel a bit sad. Or We're feeling a bit sad.

🔉 Appositives 🔉

An appositive is a noun or a noun phrase placed next to another word to define or modify it.

🔔 Example 🔔

In the phrase "my friend Hannah," the noun "Hannah" is an appositive, which gives us more information about "my friend".
🆔 @AmEnglish
〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰
Restrictive vs. Non-Restrictive

We have two types of Appositives. Restrictive and non-restrictive.

🌸 Non-Restrictive 🌸

Non-restrictive appositives are the ones that are NOT necessary for the meaning of the sentence to be completed.

🔔 Example 🔔

"Dora, the head surgeon, has called us to meet her."

In this sentence, "the head surgeon" does not narrow down the first element "Dora", rather it provides more information about it. Non-restrictive appositives are put in between commas.

🌸 Restrictive Appositives 🌸

In a restrictive appositive, the second element limits or clarifies a word in some crucial way. For example, in the sentence "My friend Shane has brought the books." The name "Shane" tells us which friend the writer is talking about; Thus restricting the first element. Restrictive appositives don't need to be set off with a pair of commas.
🆔 @AmEnglish
〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰
☀️ EXAMPLES ☀️

👉 Canada, one of the coldest countries in the world, is very beautiful.
☑️ Non-restrictive, because without "one of the coldest countries in the world", the sentence still would be complete.

👉 The band Three Days Grace will be performing tonight.
☑️ Restrictive, because we didn't know which band would be performing until the Appositive Three Days Grace came in.

⚜ Grammar Lesson ⚜

🔉 Wish 🔉

'I wish to' can mean the same as 'I want to' but it is much, much more formal and less common.

🔔 Example 🔔

➕ I wish to see the manager.
➖ I wish to make a complaint.
🆔 @AmEnglish
〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰
You can also use 'wish' with a noun to 'offer good wishes'.

➕ I wish you a merry Christmas.

👉 Hence that when you want to offer good wishes using a verb, you must use 'hope' and not 'wish'.

🔔 Example 🔔

➕I wish you the best of luck.
✔️ noun

➖I hope you have the best of luck.
✔️verb

However, the main use of 'wish' is to say that we would like things to be different from what they are, that we have regrets about the present situation.

➕I wish I were with you then.
➖He wishes he could fly.
🆔 @AmEnglish
〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰
🔅 Notice that the verb tense which follows 'I wish' is 'more in the past' than the tense corresponding to its meaning.

🔔 Example 🔔

➕I never get invited to parties. I wish I got invited more.
➖I'm too emotional. I wish I were more logical.

👉 In the case of 'will' ,where 'will' means 'show willingness' we use 'would'.

🔔 Example 🔔

➕He won't help me.I wish he would help me.
➖You've eaten too much.I wish you would stop.

🔉 Lay VS. Lie 🔉

These two verbs could be easily confused since they're one of the most difficult irregular verbs. You need to understand their meaning before learning how to use them.
〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰
💬 Definition of LAY

Lay means to put something or someone down. Remember, PUT STH DOWN. Hence, 'lay' is a transitive verb, which means a direct object will follow it.

🔔 Example

➖ I laid my books on the table.
◽️ I put my books on the table.

➕ Don't lay the shirt on the bed.
◽️ Don't put the shirt on the bed.
🆔 @AmEnglish
〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰
💬 Definition of LIE

Lie means to rest or recline, so hence, this verb is intransitive, which means no direct object will be following it.

🔔 Example

➖ I lie on the bed.
◽️ I rest on the bed.

➕ Her cat lies on the floor.
◽️ Her cat rests on the floor.

● Ok vs OK vs Okey vs Itself:


¤O.K. is a pair of initials with a multitude of uses -- not to mention a number of different explanations of how it came to be. An upcoming anniversary is the occasion for Mo Rocca to investigate:

Word up! Next Sunday, March 23rd, is the 175th anniversary of the invention of a word that English professor Allan Metcalf believes is America's most successful export.

"There's no other word that is widely recognized throughout the world," he told Rocca. "No other American word has succeeded like that."

If you don't know what that word is, it's OK.
Seriously: it's OK. The word "okay."

For Metcalf, the world's foremost "OK expert," one reason for OK's appeal is its versatility.

"Above all, it's an adjective when you say, 'This is OK,'" he said. "But it's also a noun: 'I gave this my OK.' It's also a verb: "I OK'd it.' It's also an adverb: 'She did it OK.' And it's also an interjection: 'OK.'"


So just where did this word come from? For years, its origin was a linguistic mystery.

One theory: it came from the Greek phrase "ola kala," which means all good.

And then there's the Choctaw word "okeh," which sounds like and means okay. President Woodrow Wilson reportedly thought it was the "correct" spelling of the word, and would OK documents with "okeh."

And finally, the most famous OK origin story was reinforced in the 2012 Academy Award-winning movie, "Silver Linings Playbook":

PAT: "Here's a fun fact. You know where the term 'OK comes from?"
VERONICA: "No. No, I don't."
PAT: "Well, Martin Van Buren, the eighth president of the United States of America, is from Kinderhook, New York . . . and he was part of a club, a men's club, called Old Kinderhook. And if you were cool, you were in the club, they'd say, 'That guy's OK.' 'Cause he was in the Old Kinderhooks."

No, not really. (So not OK.)
OK, the real story of OK is hilarious.

In 1839, an abbreviation craze was sweeping Boston. Charles Gordon Greene, editor of the Boston Morning Post, came up with an abbreviation -- o.k. -- which he indicated meant "all correct" if you didn't know how to spell "all correct."

OK, it was funny in 1839.

Now while President Van Buren wasn't the origin of OK, the man known as Old Kinderhook did have a hand in popularizing it.

"You have to feel a little bit bad," said Rocca, "because 'OK' was kind of Martin Van Buren's only claim to fame."

"Yes, well, I think if you go to Kinderhook, they still have plaques and announcements, that that was the origin of 'OK,'" said Metcalf. "

"They're not okay with your origin story?" Rocca said.

"That's right. But it's okay if they wanna do it."

The earliest appearance in a dictionary that we could find was in an 1864 edition of the Slang Dictionary of Vulgar Words.

But today, does OK hold its own against that other common utterance -- "like"?

In the battle of "like" versus "OK," Metcalf said, "OK comes out way out on top -- and underneath, too. Like is so wussy. All it does is just give a little bit of affirmation. OK has a much broader range."

OK is used around the globe, but Metcalf says that the word born in America expresses a quintessentially American philosophy: "You never will say anything is OK if it's not satisfactory," he said.

"Okay -- and this 'okay' is expressing skepticism right now. That feels like it equals mediocrity," said Rocca.

"It allows for mediocrity, but mediocrity that succeeds," Metcalf said. "Because Americans figure out how to get things done rather than waiting for perfection."

"Okay," said Rocca, "by which I mean I accept what you're saying."

Funny that a word so common appears in only one famous quotation: "I'm okay, you're okay."

OK -- never a star attraction, but always in a supporting role.

"It's emphatic, it's distinctive, it's simple," said Metcalf. "Americans don't like complicated philosophies or ways of life. And 'okay' is about as short and simple as you can get."

So, pencil next Sunday in as OK Day!
