PRESENT PERFECT TENS

Our lesson today is about the present perfect tense is a rather important tense in English, but it gives speakers of some languages a difficult time. That is because it uses concepts or ideas that do not exist in those languages. In fact, the structure of the present perfect tense is very simple. The problems come with the use of the tense. In addition, there are some differences in usage between British and American English. The present perfect tens is used to show past action which occur before another past action.

Example: The club had prepared the report before the members left for the seminar.

                   After the president had read the report, the secretary came to meat him.

Clue to easy remember:

had+past participle of the verbs 

   

CONJUNCTION 

Our lesson today about a topic in grammar there is conjunction. Conjunction are use to link words, phrases, clauses or sentence. Each conjunction has a different function. A conjunction can sometimes have more than one function. There are three type of conjunction:

• Coordinating Conjunction
• Correlative Conjunction
• Subordinating Conjunction

1) Coordinating Conjunction

Coordinating conjunctions, also called coordinators, are conjunctions that join two or more items of equal syntactic importance, such as words, main clauses, or sentences. In English the mnemonic acronym FANBOYS can be used to remember the coordinators for, and, nor, but, or, yet, and so.These are not the only coordinating conjunctions; various others are used, including nor" (British), "but nor" (British), "or nor" (British), "neither" ("They neither gamble nor smoke"), "no more" ("They gamble and smoke no more"), and "only" ("Can we perform? Only if we practise").

Here are the meanings and some examples of coordinating conjunctions in English:

• for: presents a reason ("He is gambling with his health, for he has been smoking far too long.") (though "for" is more commonly used as a preposition)
• and: presents non-contrasting item(s) or idea(s) ("They gamble, and they smoke.")
• nor: presents a non-contrasting negative idea ("They don't gamble nor smoke.")
• but: presents a contrast or exception ("They gamble, but they don't smoke.")
• or: presents an alternative item or idea ("Every day they gamble or they smoke.")
• yet: presents a contrast or exception ("They gamble, yet they don't smoke.")
• so: presents a consequence ("He gambled well last night, so he smoked a cigar to celebrate.")

2) Correlative Conjunction

Correlative conjunctions are pairs of conjunctions that work together to coordinate two items. English examples include both…and, [n]either…[n]or, and not [only]…but [also], whether... or.

Examples:

• Either do your work or prepare for a trip to the office.
• Not only is he handsome but he is also brilliant.
• Neither the basketball team nor the football team is doing well.
• Both the cross country team and the swimming team are doing well.
• Whether you stay or go is your decision

3) Subordinating Conjunction

• because
• as
• since
• so
• therefore
• as a result

Function of subordinating conjunction is to express cause and effect

example: The area is flooded because the drains are clogged.

PREPOSITIONS

What is a Preposition?

The prepositions is a word which shows relationship among words in a sentence. The relationship include direction, place, time, cause, manner, and amount.

A preposition links nouns, pronouns and phrases to other words in a sentence. The word or phrase that the preposition introduces is called the object of the preposition.

A preposition usually indicates the temporal, spatial or logical relationship of its object to the rest of the sentence as in the following examples:

The book is on the table.

The book is beneath the table.

The book is leaning against the table.

The book is beside the table.

She held the book over the table.

She read the book during class.

In each of the preceding sentences, a preposition locates the noun "book" in space or in time.
A prepositional phrase is made up of the preposition, its object and any associated adjectives or adverbs. A prepositional phrase can function as a noun, an adjective, or an adverb. The most common prepositions are "about," "above," "across," "after," "against," "along," "among," "around," "at," "before," "behind," "below," "beneath," "beside," "between," "beyond," "but," "by," "despite," "down," "during," "except," "for," "from," "in," "inside," "into," "like," "near," "of," "off," "on," "onto," "out," "outside," "over," "past," "since," "through," "throughout," "till," "to," "toward," "under," "underneath," "until," "up," "upon," "with," "within," and "without."
Each of the highlighted words in the following sentences is a preposition:

The children climbed the mountain without fear.

In this sentence, the preposition "without" introduces the noun "fear." The prepositional phrase "without fear" functions as an adverb describing how the children climbed.

There was rejoicing throughout the land when the government was defeated.

Here, the preposition "throughout" introduces the noun phrase "the land." The prepositional phrase acts as an adverb describing the location of the rejoicing.

The spider crawled slowly along the banister.

The preposition "along" introduces the noun phrase "the banister" and the prepositional phrase "along the banister" acts as an adverb, describing where the spider crawled.

The dog is hiding under the porch because it knows it will be punished for chewing up a new pair of shoes.

Here the preposition "under" introduces the prepositional phrase "under the porch," which acts as an adverb modifying the compound verb "is hiding."

The screenwriter searched for the manuscript he was certain was somewhere in his office.

Similarly in this sentence, the preposition "in" introduces a prepositional phrase "in his office," which acts as an adverb describing the location of the missing papers.

 ADVERB

 An adverb is a part of speech. It is any word that modifies verbs or any part of speech other than a noun (modifiers of nouns are primarilyadjectives and determiners). Adverbs can modify verbs, adjectives (including numbers), clauses, sentences, and other adverbs.

Adverbs typically answer questions such as how?, in what way?, when?, where?, and to what extent?. This function is called the adverbialfunction, and is realized not just by single words (i.e., adverbs) but by adverbial phrases and adverbial clauses.

Adverbs are words like slowly, tomorrow, now, soon and suddenly. An adverb usually modifies a verb or a verb phrase. It provides information about the manner, place or circumstances of the activity denoted by the verb or verb phrase.

• She walked slowly. (Here the adverb slowly shows the manner in which she walked.)
• The kids are playing upstairs. (Here the adverb upstairs provides information about the place of the activity.)

Adverbs can also modify adjectives and other adverbs.

• You are quite right. (Here the adverb quite modifies the adjective right.)
• She spoke quite loudly. (Here the adverb quite modifies another adverb – loudly.)

Most adverbs are formed by adding –ly to adjectives. There are also adverbs that do not end with –ly. i. The athlete ran very fast so that he could set a new record. ii. Khalid worked hard to help his family. iii. The students came late for the seminar. iv. Mi sister performed well in the examination. There are many types if adverb. Examples are: adverbs of manner, adverbs of frequency, adverbs of time, adverbs of place, adverbs of certainty etc.
