Tip 5

Tip 6

Tip 1Possessive adjectives (my, your, his, her ...) are always followed by a noun.

You should think about your career.

Possessive pronouns (mine, yours, his, hers ...) are never followed by a noun.

This is not my telephone, mine (not; mine telephone) is in my bag.

If the subject and object of the verb are the same, then we use a refl exive pronoun.

My father was talking to himself when I entered the room.

In order to emphasize the subject or the object of the verb, we use a refl exive pronoun.

John himself told me this story.

We cannot use an indefi nite pronoun that starts with any- at the beginning of a negative sentence. Instead, we can use the ones that start with no-.

Nobody was sure what to do next. (not; Anybody wasn’t sure what to do next.)

We can use an indefi nite pronoun that starts with any- at the beginning of a positive sentence.

Anybody at the offi ce can help you with that.

SIMPLE & PERFECT TENSES


Tip 2

Tip 3

Tip 4

Tip 5

Tip 6

Tip 1A perfect tense (mostly the continuous form) is used in order to tell how long an action lasts until a certain time. (especially by using for or since)

I had been reading (not; was reading) for two hours when the doorbell rang.

When we use before / after to tell the sequence of events, it is not necessary to put the fi rst action in a perfect tense.

Before I arrived home, all the guests left / had left.

In time clauses, will and would are not used.

When I see (not; will see) her, I will tell her everything.

If we use a time expression that starts with by, the main clause is almost always in perfect tenses.

By the end of the fi lm, everyone had guessed (not usually; guessed) the ending.

Even when we use a time expression that starts with by, the main clause is not necessarily in perfect tenses if we are using verb to be.

By the time I came home, dinner was / had been over.

When we use a time clause that starts with since / ever since, the main clause is in the Present Perfect Tense.

Ever since I started working here, I have been earning more.
