It then defines the infinitive as a verb form that can take objects/complements and form an infinitive phrase. Examples are given of infinitive clauses serving as subjects.
Nouns
The document discusses nouns in Hebrew. It states that Hebrew nouns can be either masculine or feminine, unlike in English. Most nouns ending in -t or -h are feminine, while nouns ending in -im are usually masculine plural and nouns ending in -ot are usually feminine plural. However, there are exceptions. The gender must be learned for each individual noun. Examples of singular and plural forms of nouns already learned are given to illustrate changing the ending to make a noun plural.
Adverb phrase in english and arabic language
This document presents a comparison between English adverb phrases and Arabic adverb phrases. In 3 sentences:
An adverb phrase in both English and Arabic consists of one or more words with the adverb as the head, and can be used to modify verbs, adjectives, other adverbs, or appear in equational sentences. English adverb phrases more commonly modify verbs and be verbs, while Arabic adverb phrases are usually adverbs of place or time and strongly bound to the main verb. Both function as a single unit within a clause or sentence.
Definite article
This document discusses definite nouns in Hebrew. It explains that to make a noun definite, the prefix "ha-" is added before the noun. Examples are given of making "apple" and "orange" definite by adding this prefix. The document also discusses how direct objects work in Hebrew sentences, noting that when the direct object is made definite, the word "et" must be added before the definite direct object noun. Examples are provided to illustrate indefinite vs. definite subjects and direct objects.
Dual form
This document discusses the dual form in Hebrew, which is used to express a pair of something and is formed by adding a yod to the end of a noun. The dual form is rare and mainly used for body parts that come in pairs, like eyes, hands, and legs. Adjectives describing nouns in the dual form take the regular masculine plural ending rather than following the dual form rules. The dual form exists for only a limited number of nouns and most body parts that have a dual are feminine gender.
Introductions
This document provides instructions for introducing oneself in Hebrew. It explains that the simplest way is to say "Hello, I am..." followed by your name, as Hebrew does not use a verb "to be". For example, "Hello, I am David" would be "Shalom, ani David". It also presents the alternative expression "My name is..." or "I am called..." which is "Korim li..." and notes this is more informal. Examples are given of using these expressions to introduce others by replacing the first person pronoun.
The present tense of regular -AR verbs
This document discusses the fundamental parts of Spanish verbs, including verbs in the present tense. It covers the infinitive, ending, and stem of Spanish verbs. The infinitive is the basic unconjugated form ending in "r". The ending is the last two letters of the infinitive. The stem is what is left after removing the ending. It provides examples of regular -ar verbs and explains how to conjugate them by using the stem and applying emphasis to different vowels. It also discusses how the present tense can be used to express present, ongoing, and future actions in Spanish.

In summary, the document outlines the conjugations of regular -er and -ir verbs in Spanish and the differences between their endings and those of -ar verbs.
Participles
There are three types of participles in English: present, past, and perfect. The present participle ends in "-ing" and is used in progressive tenses, adjectives, and gerunds. The past participle is used in perfect tenses and the passive voice. Both the present and past participles can be used to shorten sentences by combining clauses with the same subject. The perfect participle combines clauses where one action is completed before another starts. Participles are useful for combining information concisely in writing.

Overall, the structures of the two languages are similar, but French has stricter rules around gender agreement.
English Grammar
The document provides an overview of some key differences between English and Spanish grammar. It notes that English nouns do not have gender, adjectives generally come before nouns, and negation can only occur once in a sentence rather than twice as in Spanish. It also discusses the Saxon genitive form for possessives, the importance of word order given the lack of verb conjugation in English, and some differences in capitalization and punctuation between the two languages. The document then provides classifications of English parts of speech and examples.
Types of phrases
This document discusses different types of phrases in the English language. It defines what a phrase is and explains that phrases can function as nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, or prepositions. The main types of phrases discussed include noun phrases, prepositional phrases, adjective phrases, adverb phrases, verb phrases, infinitive phrases, gerund phrases, participle phrases, and absolute phrases. For each type of phrase, examples are provided and their function in a sentence is explained.
Verbals
This document discusses verbals, which are verb forms that function as other parts of speech in a sentence. There are three types of verbals: participles, gerunds, and infinitives. Participles can function as adjectives, gerunds as nouns, and infinitives as nouns, adjectives or adverbs. Examples are provided for how each verbal can be used and modified within sentences.
The verb
The document discusses verbs and their forms and usage. It explains that verbs assert something about the subject and express actions, events, or states of being. It describes the infinitive form in English and Spanish, and how Spanish verbs are conjugated to express tense, person, and number. It also discusses grammatical tense, verb valency, auxiliary verbs, irregular verbs, and other verbal forms like participles, infinitives, gerunds, and their meanings and usage.
Function words & content words
Function words serve important grammatical functions and have little meaning on their own. They include articles, auxiliary verbs, conjunctions, determiners, intensifiers, prepositions, pronouns, and interjections. Articles precede nouns and can be definite or indefinite. Auxiliary verbs combine with other verbs to form verb phrases. Conjunctions link words and phrases. Determiners introduce nouns. Pronouns replace nouns.
English Verbs
1) Verbs are words that indicate actions, states of being, or emotions. They may vary in form depending on factors like tense, voice, and whether they agree with the subject.
2) Verbs are divided into transitive verbs (which take a direct object) and intransitive verbs (which do not). Linking verbs connect the subject to a word that renames or describes it. Helping verbs convey additional information like time or possibility.
3) Irregular verbs have unpredictable past tense or past participle forms, while regular verbs follow predictable patterns. There are over 16 tenses in English depending on combinations of aspects like time, continuation, and completeness.

7 Habits of Highly Effective People.pptx
Covey says most people look for quick fixes. They see a big success and want to know how he did it, believing (and hoping) they can do the same following a quick bullet list.
But real change, the author says, comes not from the outside in, but from the inside out. And the most fundamental way of changing yourself is through a paradigm shift.
That paradigm shift is a new way of looking at the world. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People presents an approach to effectiveness based on character and principles.
The first three habits indeed deal with yourself because it all starts with you. The first three habits move you from dependence from the world to the independence of making your own world.
Habits 4, 5 and 6 are about people and relationships. The will move you from independence to interdependence. Such, cooperating to achieve more than you could have by yourself.
The last habit, habit number 7, focuses on continuous growth and improvement.

Gerund and Infinitive
- 1. República Bolivariana de Venezuela Ministerio Del Poder Popular Para la Educación Superior Universidad Yacambú Cabudare-Lara Orcalis Mendoza HPS-123-00304
- 2. GERUND In English, the gerund is one of the uses of the form of the verb ending in -ing . This same verb form has other uses besides the gerund: it can serve as a present participle (used adjectivally or adverbially), and as a pure verbal noun. For example, consider the sentence "Eating this cake is easy." Here the gerund is the verb eating, which takes an object this cake. The entire clause eating this cake is then used as a noun, which in this case serves as the subject of the larger sentence.
- 3. EXAMPLES OF USE The following sentences illustrate some uses of gerund clauses, showing how such a clause serves as a noun within the larger sentence. In some cases the clause consists of just the gerund (although in many such cases the word could equally be analyzed as a pure verbal noun). Swimming is fun. (gerund as subject of the sentence) I like swimming. (gerund as direct object) I never gave swimming all that much effort. (gerund as indirect object) Eating biscuits in front of the television is one way to relax. (gerund clause as subject) Do you fancy going out? (gerund clause as direct object) On being elected president, he moved with his family to the capital. (gerund clause as complement of a preposition)
- 4. INFINITIVE Infinitive is a grammatical term used to refer to certain verb forms that exist in many languages. As a verb, an infinitive may take objects and other complements and modifiers to form a verb phrase (called an infinitive phrase). Like other non-finite verb forms (such as participles, gerunds and gerundives) infinitives do not generally have an expressed subject; thus an infinitive verb phrase also constitutes a complete non-finite clause, called an infinitive (infinitival) clause.
- 5. EXAMPLES OF USE (To marry/Marrying) a knight in shining armor is the dream of many girls. 2. I shudder (to think/thinking) that I almost lost everything in the stock market.
