MODAL PERFECT

We can use the modal perfect to talk about the past

modal perfect= modal + have + past participle

e.g. You should have seen what Emma worw to the party

POSIBILITY:

Simon may/might/could have been at the party. I can´t really remember.

(= It´s possible he was at the party)

CERTAINTY:

Francis must have been 11 when he moved to France. (I´m sure he was 11)

HYPOTETICAL SITUATIONS:

I coul/woul have passed the exam if I´d studied harder

(= I didn´t pass because I didn´t study hard enough.)

OPINION:

You ought to/should have called me. (= You didn´t call me but I wish you

had called me.)

Note: modal perfect continuous = modal + have + been + ing form

e.g. We must have been dancing four hours.

We use the modal perfect continous:

for actions in progress on interrupted when another action happens

e.g. He can´t have been driving carefully when he crashed the card

Rocio Chavez

Modals I (ability, obligation, advice, permission)

The modals are:

Can (can´t / cannot) Could (couldn´t / could not)

May (may not) Migth (migthn´t / migth not)

Will (won´t / will not) Would (wouldn´t / would not)

Must (mustn´t / must not) Should (shouldn´t / should not)

Be careful!! Modals have only one form. For example, they do not take an "-s" in the third person singular.

The semi - modals are:

Have to

It has a similar meaning to must, but it does change its form depending on person and tense:

have / has (got) to (don´t / doesn´t have to / do / does not have to, haven´t / hasn´t got to / have / has not got to + didn´t have to, etc)

ought to (oughtn´t / ought not to)

It has a similar meaning to sholud. It doesn´t change its form depending on person and tense.

Be careful!! Modals are never followed by the full infinitive (with to). Use the bare infinitive.

Example: I can´t go to the party.

Note: modal perfect continuous = modal + have + been + -ing form
e.g. We must have been dancing for hours.

We use the modal perfect continuous:
- For actions in progresss or interrupted when another action happens
e.g. He can't have been driving carefully when he crashed the car.

- To emphasise that an action continued for a long time
e.g. Jan must have been talking on the phone for al least 3 hours!

Simple Perfect (simple and continuous)

We use present perfect simple for:

- Actions and situations taht happened at an unspecified time before the moment of speaking.

e.g. I have seen that film loads of times. (before now)
I've never heard of that pop group before.
She's just turned off the TV. (not long before now)

- Actions and situations that started in the past and still happen, or are still true, at the moment of speaking.

e.g. She has written short stories since she was a child. (she still writes short stories)
I have believed in ghosts ever since that night. (I still believe in ghosts)

Present perfect simple (positive):
I/You/We/They + have+ past participle
He/She + has + past participle

Present perfect simple (negative):
I/You/We/They + haven't/have not + past participle
He/She + hasn't/has not + past participle

Present Perfect simple (question form):
Have + I/you/we/they + past participle...?
Has + he/ she + past participle...?

Time expressions often used with present perfect simple

for (+ period of time) e.g. I have lived in Belgium for three years.
since (+ time when it started) e.g. I have lived in Belgium since 2003.
just e.g. He has just woken up.
already e.g. I've got that CD already. I have already got that CD.
yet (with negatives and questions) e.g. I haven't seen that film yet. Have you seen the new Mel Gibson film yet?
still (with negatives) e.g. I still haven't found my sunglasses.
recently/lately e.g. I've bought a lot of magazines recently.
so far e.g. I've read 100 pages of this book so far.
before e.g. Have you eaten Chinese food before?
ever/never e.g. Have you ever been to Germany?. I've never been to China.


Be careful! We often use present perfect simple with the superlative and with ordinal numbers (first, second, third, etc).

e.g. It's the best film I've ever seen. It's the best time I've been to South America.

Carl has been to Mexico. = Carl is not in Mexico now.
Carl has gone to mexico. = Carl is in Mexico or on his way to Mexico now.

We use present perfect continuos for:

- Actions and situations that started in the past and still continue al the moment of speaking.

e.g. She has been working as a journalist for three years.

- Temporary actions and situations in the recent past.

e.g. I've just been readingan interesting article about celebrities.

Present perfect continuous (positive):
I/You/We/They + have + been + -ing form
He/She + has + been + -ing gorm

Present perfect continuous (negative):
I/You/We/They + haven't/have not + been + -ing form
He/She + hasn't/has not + been + -ing form

Present perfect continuous (question form):
Have + I/you/we/they + been + -ing form...?
Has + he/she + been + -ing form...?

Time expressions often used with present perfect continuous

for (+period of time) e.g. I have been living in Belgium for three years.
since (+ time when it started) e.g. I have been living in belgium since 2003.
just e.g. he has just been playing football.
recently/lately e.g. I've been seeing a lot of Karen recently.
all day, all morning, etc e.g. I've been doing my homework all evening. I need a break now.

Be careful! Something there is very little difference in meaning between present perfect simple and present perfect continuous:

e.g. I have lived here for two years now. (= I moved here two years ago.)
I have been living here for two years now. (= I moved here two years ago.)

Sometimes there is a big difference in meaning:

e.g. I've lived in Paris, London and Rome. (= I don't live in Paris now.)
I've been living in Paris for two years now. (= I live in Paris.)

Will and be going to.

We use both will and be going to to talk about the future. Sometimes there is very little difference in meaning. It is often just a matter of formality. Will is generally more formal than be going to.

We can use either will or be going to for:

• Facts about the future.

There will be an eclipse of the sun tomorrow. (formal)

There´s going to be an eclipse tomorrow. (informal)

• Predictions (opinios about the future) not based on present evidence.

One day people will have holidays on Mars. (formal)

One day people are going to have holidays on Mars. (informal)

• Decisions made at the moment of speaking.

I know! I´ll get Dad a DVD for Christmas.

I know! I´m going to get Dad a DVD for Christmas.

NOTE: Will emphasises the decision, whereas be going to emphasises the intention. The meaning, however, is basically the same in both sentences.

We can use will for:

• most first conditional sentences.
• offers, suggestions and request.

BE CAREFUL!

With offers and suggestions in the questions form, we do not use will with I and we. We use shall:

Example: Will I help you with the washing-up? (mistake).

Shall I help you with the washing-up?

We can use Be going to for:

• Plans and intentions (which you already have when you speak)
• Predictions based on present evidence.

"Smother Me"

Let me be the one who calls you baby

All the time

Surely you can take some comfort

Knowing that you're mine

Just hold me tight, lay by my side

and let me be the one who calls you

Baby all the time

I found my place in the world

Could stare at your face for the rest of

my days

Now I can breathe, turn my insides out

and Smother me

Warm and alive I'm all over you

would you smother me?

Let me be the one who never leaves

You all alone

I hold my breath and lose the feeling

That I'm on my own

Hold me too tight stay by my side

and let me be the one who calls you

Baby all the time

I found my place in the world

Could stare at your face for the rest of

my days

Now I can breathe, turn my insides out

and Smother me

Warm and alive I'm all over you

would you smother me?

When I'm alone time goes so slow

I need you here with me

and how my mistakes have made

Your heart break

Still I need you here with me

Baby I'm here

Now I can breathe, turn my insides out

and Smother me

Warm and alive I'm all over you

would you smother me?

All the time

Comparatives and superlatives

We can use comparative adjectives and adverbs to compare things or people that are different and separate from each other.

example: Justine is taller than Melissa and Eliot.

Adam reads more slowly than his brother.

We use superlative adjectives and adverbs to compare one member of a group with the whole group.

example : Justine is the tallest person in the family.

Of all the students in the class, Pete did the best in the test.

NOTE: SUPERLATIVE ADVERBS ARE NOT USED VERY OFTEN IN ENGLISH.

Brian Rueda P.

Past simple and Past continuous

We use past simple for:

• Completed actions at a specific time in the past. example: I bought three CDs yesterday.


• Completed situations and statesin the past. example: I had green hair for a while as a teenager.


• Repeated actions in the past. example: We played football every saturday.


• The main events and situations in a story. example: I ran out of the house, crossed the road and jumped on the bus.

Regular verbs

positive = subject + bare infinitive + -ed.

example: appear........:I/you/he/she/we/they appeared.

negative = subject + did not (didn´t) + bare infinitive.

example: I/you/he/she/we/they didn´t appear.

questions form = Did + subject + bare infinitive.

example: Did I/you/he/she/we/they appear?

Irregular verbs

The negative and questions form for irregular verbs are the same as for regular verbs.

positive: Inga went to London.

negative: Inga didn´t go to London.

questions form: Did Inga go to London?

The only exception is the verb to be:

positive: You were in London./ Inga was in London.

negative: You were not (weren´t) in London./ Inga was not (wasn´t) in London.

questions form: Were you in London?./ Was Inga in London?

Emphatic past simple

We can use the emphatic past simple to emphasise an action or situation in the past, particularly to emphasise that it actually happened, or that it´s different to what someone else thinks.

Emphatic past simple = subject + did + bare infinitive.

past simple: I know you don´t believe me but I saw a ghost.

emphatic past simple: I konw you don´t believe me but I did see a ghost.

NOTE: WE CAN´T USE THE EMPHATIC PAST SIMPLE WITH THE VERB TO BE.
