Grammar words
This a list of words used in the explanations in this book.
active and passive
Many verbs can be active or passive. For example, build:
My grandfather built this house, (active)
This house was built by my grandfather, (passive)
The active sentence begins with My grandfather (the subject). This sentence tells us something
about my grandfather and what he did (he built this house).
The passive sentence begins with This house (the subject). This sentence tells us something about
the house (it was built by my grandfather).
Passive forms are be + past participle. Compare:
active passive
I can't repair it. It can't b e re p a ire d .
Somebody stole my wallet. My wallet w a s s to le n .
Have they cleaned the room? Has the room b e e n c le a n e d ?
See Units 42-44.
adjective
An adjective is a word that tells us about somebody or something. Nice, tall, hungry, foreign and interesting
are all adjectives.
Adjectives go before a noun:
a n ic e day f o r e ig n languages
or after some verbs (be, get, seem, look, taste etc.)
she's t a l l this looks in t e r e s t in g
See Units 98-101, 65, 76 and 130-131.
adverb
Adverbs often end in -ly, for example:
slowly really fortunately
These -ly adverbs often tell us how somebody does something:
quietly carefully safely
Other adverbs do not end in -ly. Many of these adverbs tell us where, when or how often something
happens. Here,yesterday and always are all adverbs.
Some adverbs (for example very, really and absolutely) are used with adjectives:
v e r y sorry r e a lly nice a b s o lu t e ly enormous
See Units 100,101 and 110.
1
apostrophe
We use an apostrophe (') instead of the missing letter(s) in a short form;
I'm (= lam ) you've (=you have) didn't (= did not)
We also use an apostrophe +s (-'s) to show possession:
Rachel's car my sister's friends the cat's tail
See Unit 81 and Appendix 5,
article
A/an and the are articles. Articles are a type of determiner.
See Units 71-78.
auxiliary verb
We use auxiliary verbs together with other verbs:
we a r e going the plane h a s landed I c a n 't help d o you know
In these examples, going, landed, help and know are the main verbs. Are, has, can and do are auxiliary verbs.
See Units 51-52.
clause
A clause is a whole sentence or a part of a sentence. There is always a verb in a clause. Examples of clauses:
I'm tired, (one clause, one sentence)
I'm tired and I want to go home, (two clauses, one sentence)
I was tired when I got home, (two clauses, one sentence)
Although I was tired, I went out, which wasn't a good idea. (three clauses, one sentence)
Some clauses begin with a participle (talking/standing/injured/stolen etc.):
Who were those people standing outside your office?
See Units 68 and 92-97.
comparative and superlative
Adjectives and adverbs have comparative and superlative forms.
The comparative form is -er or more ...:
old -» older important -> more important
The superlative form is -est or most... :
old —*■oldest important —* most important
See Units 105-108.
conjunction
A conjunction is a word that joins clauses. For example, in the following sentences but and if are conjunctions:

The following words are determiners too (used with a noun), but they can also be pronouns
(used without a noun):
this, that, these, those
some, any, no, all
many, much, few, little
both, either, neither, each
For example:
I like th is j a c k e t (determiner)
I like th is, (pronoun)
See Units 71-78 and 85-91.
direct speech and reported speech
When we use direct speech, we use the words of the speaker. For example:
Paul went home early. He said I'm n o t f e e lin g g o o d .'
When we use reported (or indirect) speech, we change I'm not to he wasn't:
Paul went home early. He said h e w a s n 't f e e lin g g o o d .
See Units 47-48.
future
To talk about the future, we use present tenses (/leave, I'm leaving etc.), will or (be) going to.
See Units 19-25 and Appendix 3.
3
infinitive
The infinitive form of a verb is the form without any extra ending (the form you will find when you look
in a dictionary). Sometimes this is called 'the base form'. So understand, dance and stay are infinitive forms:
He doesn't u n d e rs ta n d .
Let's d a n c e .
We can't s t a y here.
The infinitive is often used with to:

4

perfect
Perfect verb forms are have + past participle. For example:
she h a s g o n e present perfect
she h a d g o n e past perfect
she must h a v e g o n e perfect infinitive
she will h a v e g o n e perfect infinitive (= future perfect)
she would like to h a v e g o n e to + perfect infinitive
Perfect forms can also be continuous: I have been waiting / 1had been waiting / 1must have been waiting etc.
See Units 7-16, 24, 27-29, 33, 36, 40, 43, 45, 53-54 and 58.
phrasal verb
A phrasal verb is a verb +in/out/on/off/up/down/away/back etc. These words are sometimes
called particles (a type of adverb). For example:
get on take off come back break down keep up
Sometimes phrasal verbs are used for movement and direction:
C o a w a y and don't c o m e b a c k !
I to o k my shoes o f f
But often they have a special meaning. For example:
My brother and I don't g e t o n very well. (= we don't have a good relationship)
There are a few problems I need to s o r t o u t. (= I need to solve)
Sometimes there is a preposition after a phrasal verb:
I don't get on w ith my brother.
Here, get on is a phrasal verb and with is a preposition.
See Units 137-145.
plural see singular and plural
preposition
Some examples of prepositions:
at, in, on, to, of, for, with, by, from, during
Prepositions are usually followed by a noun or pronoun:
I don't like going out a t n ig h t.
They live in a s m a ll v illa g e .
What's the name o f th is s t r e e t ?
This isf o r y o u .
Sometimes (for example, in questions), there is a preposition at the end of a sentence:
What areyou looking f o r ?
See Units 121-136.
5
p r e s e n t see tense
present participle
The present participle ends in -ing (going, dancing, thinking etc.).
We use the present participle for continuous forms of the verb (I'm going, they were dancing etc.).
We also use participles in sentences like:
Joe hurt his knee p la y in g football.
See Units 68 and 97.
pronoun
These words are pronouns:
I/me,you, he/him, she/her, we/us, they/them, it (personal pronouns)
mine/yours/his/hers/ours/theirs (possessive pronouns)
myself/yourself/themselves etc. (reflexive pronouns)
Other pronouns include:
someone/nobody/everything etc.
this/that/these/those
See Units 82-91. See also relative pronouns and determiners.
question tag
A question tag is a ‘mini-question' that we sometimes put on the end of a sentence:
You haven’t seen Kate, h a v e y o u ?
There was a lot of traffic, w a s n ’t t h e r e ?
See also Unit 52.
regular and irregular verbs
The past simple and past participle of regular verbs are the same and end in -ed. For example:
I w o r k e d (past simple)
I have w o rk e d (past participle used with have)
Tom p a in t e d the room, (past simple)
The room will be p a in te d , (past participle used in the passive)
The past simple and past participle of irregular verbs are sometimes the same and sometimes different.
But they do not end in -ed. For example:
I lo s t (past simple)
I have lo s t (past participle with have)
Somebody s t o le my phone, (past simple)
My phone was s to le n , (past participle used in the passive)
See Appendix 1.
6
relative clause
A relative clause gives information about something or somebody. Relative clauses often begin
with relative pronouns (who, whom, whose, which, that):
An architect is a person who designs buildings.
Grace works fora company that makes furniture.
See Units 92-96.
relative pronoun see relative clause
sentence
A sentence has one or more clauses. (two clauses)
My phone rang, (one cla use)
My phone rang, so I answered it. (two clauses)
If my phone rings, can you answer it forme, please?
A sentence begins with a capital letter (A, B, C etc.) and ends with a full stop (.).
short form (or contraction)
In spoken English, we usually say I'm /you've / didn't etc. These are short forms or contractions.
The full forms are I am /you have / did not.
When we write short forms, we use an apostrophe (') for the missing letters.
See Appendix 5.
singular and plural
A singular form is used for one person or thing. For example: flower, school, child.
A plural form is used for more than one person or thing. For example: flowers, schools, children.
Verbs sometimes have different forms for singular and plural. For example:
Where does she live? (singular)
Where do they live? (plural)
See Units 71 and 79.
subject and object
fn the following sentences, Tom is the subject:
Tom is eating an apple,
Tom saw Helen.
Tom plays football.
After the subject, there is a verb (is eating, saw, plays) and an object (an apple, Helen, football).
The object is what he's eating, who he saw, what he plays.
The subject normally goes before the verb (Tom is eating), and the object goes after the verb
(eating an apple). In questions, the verb usually goes before the subject - see Unit 49A.
Some verbs (for example give, show, buy) can have two objects. For example:
Helen bought her mother a present.
Her mother is the indirect object (= the receiver) and a present is the direct object (what Helen bought).
See Units 42, 44A, 46B, 49, 55, 93, 94B, 95B and 137C.
7
subjunctive
The subjunctive has the same form as the infinitive: do, be, eat, play etc. You can use the
subjunctive after insist, recommend, suggest etc. You can also use should:
I insisted that he apologise.
I insisted that he should apologise.
See Unit 34.
superlative see comparative
syllable
A syllable is a part of a word. For example, the word remember has three syllables: re-mem-ber.
tense
A tense is a verb form that shows time. English verbs have two main tenses, present and past.
Present and past tenses can be simple or continuous, For example:
present past
I walk (present simple) I walked (past simple)
I am walking (present continuous) I was walking (past continuous)
All of these can also be perfect (with have): I had walked (past perfect simple)
I have walked (present perfect simple) I had been walking (past perfect continuous)
I have been walking (present perfect continuous)
See Units 1-18 and Appendix Z.
uncountable see noun
verb
A verb is a word for an action (go, eat, work), a happening (rain, find, die) or a state (be, know, want).
In the sentence
Tom is hungry and wants something to eat.
is, wants and eat are all verbs.
Verbs have four or five different forms. For example:
infinitive (or base form) + 5 + ing (present participle) past simple past participle
work works working worked worked
buy buys buying bought bought
eat eats eating ate eaten
word order
Word order is the way words go together in a sentence. For example, we say:
a modern building (not a building modern)
I don't know where she is. (not I don't know where is she)
She always walks to work, (not She walks always)
See Units 49-50, 99, 109-110 and 137.
