Determiners

      Determiners warn us about the nouns that are to follow. They mark the noun and we make inference about the noun based on the determiner used before it.

Verb Forms

     A Verb is a word that tells or asserts something about a person or thing. The verb tells of action or doing.

Future Time Reference

     Future time is expressed by verbs in present tense.Father would have left by the time I reach home.

Modals

     Modals are verbs which 'help' other verbs to express a meaning: 'modal verbs' have no meaning by themselves. A modal verb such as would has several varying functions; it can be used, for example, to help verbs express ideas about the past, the present and the future.

Connectors

     A connector is a word that is used to join words or sentences.

The Passive

     A verb is in the Active Voice when its form shows that the person or thing denoted by the subject is the doer of the action.

Reported Speech

      If we report what another person has said that is reported speech. We can not use the speaker's exact words (direct speech), but we must use indirect speech or reported speech.

Prepositions

     A preposition usually indicates the temporal, spatial or logical relationship of its object to the rest of the sentence. The preposition is always placed before a noun or a pronoun.
