Grammar on Moodle

Check Moodle for additional grammar material if you are struggling.

1.   Present simple 

Present simple: (I do, he does …)

Facts: Christian Dior targets men and women.

Habits: I always book my trip on internet.

Actions/situations which are generally true: Many consumers prefer well-known brands.

Time schedules/agenda: We launch this new product on 15 June.

A fact, habit or regular action.

Fact: She is an author. She writes books.

Habit: She always writes in the morning.

Regular action: She writes two books a year.

 2.  Present continuous

Present continuous: (I’m doing, she’s doing…)

1) Something happens now, an ongoing situation

  Ex: We’re developing a completely new image for the brand.

2) Temporary situation

  Ex: We’re offering a good discount during this period.

3) Describing trends + personal planning and appointments

  Ex: I’m meeting the manager of TUI next week.

Form: form of to be + verb + ing form

3.  Continuous aspect

It deals with time in progress at the moment of speaking and perceives actions and events as incomplete, temporary or developing. We use continuous forms to indicate that the event or situation is unfinished.

1.  Use present continous: to talk about situations that are changing, developing or progressing / it is going on now.

2.  Use the present perfect continous: to describe a situation or activity that started in the past and has been in progress for a period until now

3.  Use the past continuous: to describe past events repeated over time

4.  Past Simple (I did, she did)

1. To refer to events that took place in the past.

  For ex: Did you meet her in London last week?

  Yes, I met her in London. (past simple)

2. We often use a time adverb with the past simple:

  For ex: in 1972, a few weeks ago, last week, yesterday, a long time ago, etc.

3. Form past simple: verbs with ‘ed’ (regular form) with such words as developed, worked, danced, helped, jogged etc.

4. And form past simple verbs without ‘ed’ (irregular verbs) with words such as rose, went, sold, shone, threw etc.

5. Questions use ‘did’. Did you, did they, did she etc.

5.  Past Perfect

We use it to show that a finished past action also has its result in the past.

Form: the past tense of have + a past participle (voltooid deelwoord) (3e rijtje)

For ex: Two men delivered my new television yesterday.  I had already paid for it.

THE reference POINT IS THE PRESENT.

Used to show the order of 2 events that happened in the past.

Form:

I/she/he/it/they/we + had + past tense of a regular or irregular verb.

Example:

When Sarah arrived at the party, Paul had gone home.

When we got home last night, we found that somebody had broken into the flat.

I asked her to marry me after I had bought the ring.

6.  Present perfect

We use it to show that a finished past action has still result now.

Form: the present tense of have + a past participle (voltooid deelwoord). (3e rijtje)

Arise-arose-arisen (irregular)   /    walk-walked-walked (regular)

Throw-threw-thrown (irregular)  /  dance-danced-danced (regular)

A CONNECTION TO THE PRESENT. BUT IT HAPPENED IN THE PAST.

THE reference POINT IS IN THE PRESENT.

An action in the past that has a result now.

Form:

I/you/we/they + have + past participle

He/she/it + has + past participle

Examples using regular verbs.

I/you/we/they have washed the dishes.

He/she has walked to school.

The aircraft (it) has landed.

Examples using irregular verbs.

I/you/we/they have broken all the eggs.

He/she/ has stolen this watch.
