Practice the verb forms!

Slide 5 - Tekstslide

Verb forms are one of the biggest challenges in learning grammar. Verb forms change a verb in some way to tell you information about it.
Verb forms
There are two types of verbs: Regular & Irregular
  • Regular verbs -> follow the base rule 
  • Irregular verbs -> don't follow any rule!
However, you can find the right verb form for a sentence even with irregular verbs. How? Practice, practice, practice.

Word order!
English sentences (almost) always use the same word order!
Exception: Passive Voice!

Word order can help you while studying tenses: questions and negatives often work a little different in word order than positive sentences
