❇️Terrific is an adjective used to describe something or someone has extremely large or extremely good. It carries a good connotation.

❇️The adverb form is terrifically and is usually used as a submodifier.

❇️Terrify is a verb that means to cause fear in others.
Terrifying has replaced terrific as the adjective that means to cause fear or terror. The adverb form is terrifyingly.

❇️Terrified, on the other hand, is an adjective that means to be scared or fearful.

⭕️ Examples:
🔶He is a terrific director and will always remain special to me.
🔶He told her of his terrifying experience.

❇️In English, if you want to follow a verb with another action, you must use a gerund or infinitive.
⭕️For example:
1️⃣We resumed talking. (gerund – verb + ing)
2️⃣I want to see a movie. (infinitive – to + base verb)
❇️There are certain verbs that can only be followed by one or the other, and these verbs must be memorized. Many of these verbs are listed in the PDF file I have uploaded!🤩

❇️We use 'used to' to say that an action happened continuously, habitually or frequently during a period in the past, but no longer occurs.
