Ger inf
Gerunds and infinitives are verb forms that can function as nouns. Gerunds are verbs ending in "-ing" and infinitives are "to + verb". Gerunds can be subjects of sentences, objects of prepositions, or objects of certain verbs. Infinitives can be objects of verbs or follow certain adjectives and nouns. Knowing when to use gerunds or infinitives depends on the grammar rules of the specific verbs in the sentence. The document provides examples of how to use gerunds and infinitives correctly in different contexts.
Types of sentences

Module 5 lesson 5.1
There are two types of clauses in English: independent clauses and dependent clauses. An independent clause can stand alone as a simple sentence because it contains a subject and verb and expresses a complete thought. A dependent clause does not express a complete thought on its own and must be attached to an independent clause; it begins with a subordinating conjunction like "because", "when", or "after". Together, the independent and dependent clauses form a complex sentence expressing a full idea. Common time-related subordinating conjunctions that introduce dependent clauses include after, as soon as, before, until, when, whenever, and while.
Syntax pre
A simple sentence contains a subject and one finite verb expressing a complete thought. It can have modifiers but only one independent clause. A complex sentence contains an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses, with the dependent clauses connected by subordinators like "because", "since", or relative pronouns. The dependent clauses add meaning but cannot stand alone, depending on the main independent clause.

Eso 3 how to write an essay
This document provides advice for writing essays. It recommends using short sentences with clear subjects and verbs. Paragraphs should maintain consistent verb tenses and not mix tenses. Writers should organize their ideas before starting and use connectors to link ideas in a logical sequence. Familiar language structures and vocabulary should be used. Checking dictionaries for spelling and usage is also advised. A series of exercises are included to practice simple present, present continuous, and comparative tenses.
Articles
This document discusses the three types of articles in English: indefinite articles (a/an), the definite article (the), and when to use each. The indefinite articles refer to things that are unknown or being introduced for the first time. The definite article is used when the listener knows the specific person or thing being referred to. It is also used with singular nouns when only one exists, such as rivers, oceans, or geographical locations. The pronunciation of "the" depends on whether it is used in its strong or weak form.
Simple sentences
The document discusses simple sentences and how to make them more expressive. It defines a simple sentence as having one subject, one verb, and one clause that forms a complete thought. Examples of basic simple sentences are provided. The document then suggests adding adjectives, adverbs, and prepositional phrases to provide more detail and make the sentences more vivid. A series of examples demonstrate how modifying basic sentences in these ways enhances their expressiveness. Finally, practice sentences are provided for the reader to try modifying on their own.
Complex sentence
A complex sentence contains one independent clause and one dependent clause. A dependent clause cannot stand alone as a complete thought and must be attached to an independent clause. There are two patterns for writing complex sentences: pattern one uses a comma to separate the dependent clause, which comes first, from the independent clause. Pattern two does not use a comma, with the independent clause coming first followed by the dependent clause. Common words like although, before, and when can make a clause dependent.

Module 5 lesson 5.1
This document discusses independent and dependent clauses. It defines an independent clause as having one subject-verb pair and expressing a complete thought, essentially being another name for a simple sentence. A dependent clause is defined as an independent clause with a subordinating word like "because" or "when" added to the beginning, making it unable to stand alone as a complete thought and requiring it to be joined to an independent clause. Several examples of independent and dependent clauses are provided. The document also discusses subordinating conjunctions that can introduce dependent clauses and lists some common time-related subordinating conjunctions like "after", "before", and "when".

The document discusses the use of articles (a, an, the) in the English language. It explains that indefinite articles (a, an) are used with singular count nouns being mentioned for the first time.
