Simple Future
Halo teman - teman kali ini kita akan mempelajari tentang simple future yuk!! dilihat n disimak...!!!
The simple future tense is often called will, because we make the simple future tense with the modal auxiliary will.
For negative sentences in the simple future tense, we insert not between the auxiliary verb and main verb. For question sentences, we exchange the subject and auxiliary verb. Look at these example sentences with the simple future tense:
I will sing |
How do we make the Simple Future Tense?
The structure of the simple future tense is:subject | + | auxiliary verb WILL | + | main verb |

Finite Verb
Halo teman - teman pada kali ini kita akan mempelajari tentang finite verb, yuk!! silahkan dilihat...!!!
A finite verb is a verb that is inflected for person and for tense according to the rules and categories of the languages in which it occurs. Finite verbs can form independent clauses, which can stand by their own as complete sentences.
he finite forms of a verb are the forms where the verb shows tense, person or number. Non-finite verb forms have no person or number, but some types can show tense.
- Finite verb forms include: I go, she goes, he went
- Non-finite verb forms include: to go, going, gone
Noun Phase
Halo teman - teman kali ini kita akan mempelajari tentang noun phase atau fase kata benda, yuk!! silahkan dilihat...!!!
A noun phrase is either a single noun or pronoun or any group of words containing a noun or a pronoun that function together as a noun or pronoun, as the subject or object of a verb.
For example, ‘they’, ‘books’, and ‘the books’ are noun phrases, but ‘book’ is just a noun, as you can see in these sentences (in which the noun phrases are all in bold)
Example 1:
Adit: Do you like books?
Nizam : Yes, I like them.
Adit: Do you like books over there?
Nizam : Yes, they are nice.
Adit: Do you like the book I brought yesterday?
Nizam : Yes, I like it. (Note: ‘It’ refers to ‘the book’, not ‘book’)
Example 2:
Nicko was late.
(‘Nicko’ is the noun phrase functioning as the subject of the verb.)
Some noun phrases are short: The students
Some are long: The very tall education consultant
Structures of noun phrases:
▪ A beautiful old painting on the wall
The structure of this noun phrase contains three sections:
Pre-modifier | Head noun | Post-modifier |
A beautiful old | painting | on the wall |
A beautiful old | painting | - |
- | painting | on the wall |
This is the table of the adjectives that are combined with the nouns:
Determiner | Opinion adjectives | Descriptive adjectives | Nouns | ||||||
General | specific | size | shape | age | colour | nationality | material | ||
A | Lovely | comfortable | big | - | - | - | - | Wooden | chair |
The | Cheap | - | - | - | new | black | German | - | car |
Large | round | - | - | - | metal | table |
When you use a noun in front of another noun, you never put adjectives between them. You put adjectives in front of the first noun.
Example: We just spoke with a young American boy.
Noun phrase can be in form of gerund (Vbase+ing) or gerund and other nouns compounding.
Example: passing the exam watching TV
preparing the equipment sliding down a rope
going to school diving board
