ED OR ING ADJECTIVES

There are two types of participial adjectives, adjectives that end in ing or -ed. They
usually describe feelings or reactions. The two forms have different meanings.
Adjectives that end in –ing describe the effect that something has on your feelings.
Example: The last Star movie was amazing!
Adjectives that end in –ed describe people’s feelings. Example: Roger got bored at the
party.

REFLEXIVE PRONOUNS

Reflexive pronouns are myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves,

yourselves e themselves.
We usually to refer back to the subject of the clause and are used to talk about action
taking place where the subject and object are the same person.
For example: John was in such a hurry that he cut himself shaving this morning.
We sometimes use reflexive pronouns to emphasize the subject or object when we want
o do draw attention to that person or thing. Example:
We prepared and cooked the five course meals ourselves.

*NOT CONFUSE: Be careful not to mix up reflexive pronouns and each other
EACH OTHER: We use when the subject are two people.
Example: We’re very closes friends. We’re always helping each other.

1st CONDITIONAL

We use the first Conditional to talk about a possible or imaginary situation and the
consequence of it. We can divide conditional sentences with if.
You use the present tense in the if clause and will/won’t in the other clause in first
conditional sentences to talk about the future.
The first conditional is made up of the condition (the if part of sentence) and the consequence or
the result.

Ex: If it’s sunny, we will have a barbecue.

If Tim doesn’t work in the stock room, he won’t get na interview

BASE FORM = IF + PRESENT SIMPLE, WILL+ BASE FORM

*When the first clause comes first, you put a comma between the two clauses. You don’t
need one if it comes second.
Ex: I will stay at home if it rain.
 CAUSATIVE VERB
Causative verbs express the idea of someone causing something to take place.
Causative could be similar in meaning to passive verbs.
The causative is formed with subject + have or get + object + past participle form.
Ex: She had her hair cut.
We have our house decorated every year.
Last year I got my hair cut only twice.

MISS OR LOSE?

Usually you miss something which happens , such as an event, a train leaving, or an
opportunity.
Ex: If I don’t leave now, I’ll miss my train.
We can use lose when we lose something, when we can’t find something, not win a game
or war, lose your home, job, et.
Ex: If you lose your passport, you won’t travel abroad.
*Be careful: loose or lose? These words look and sound similar, but have completely
different meanings.
