Course 8-Unit 3: Perfect modals meaning and form. adjust.Martin Caicedo
The document discusses perfect modal verbs, which combine a modal verb like "should", "could", "may", etc. with the auxiliary "have" and a past participle verb. It explains that the meaning of sentences changes depending on which modal verb is used. Should+have expresses regret about past actions, while would/could/may/might+have speculate about possible past situations. Examples are provided to illustrate expressing regret with "should have" and speculation with modal verbs like "would have".
Participle clauses are adverbial clauses that use participles to provide additional information about the main clause in an economical way. They can be formed using the present participle (-ing form) or past participle (-ed form) and are used to replace time clauses, clauses of reason/result, or passive voice constructions. Present participles are used to describe actions happening at the same time, while past participles are used to describe completed actions or passive constructions. Participle clauses add detail about time, reason, condition or other relationships between two events or situations.
The document discusses the use of possessives with gerunds. It provides examples of sentences containing a gerund and explains that a possessive determiner should be used to indicate who or what is performing the gerund action. It analyzes example sentences, identifying the gerund action, who is performing it, and how it makes the speaker feel. The document emphasizes that a possessive like "those kids'" or "the girl's" should be used because the gerund action belongs to the subject. Alternative constructions using a possessive pronoun are also presented.

For result, it discusses markers like "so" and "as a result". For reason, it covers markers like "because", "since", and "owing to". For purpose, it lists "to", "in order to", and "so as to".

This document provides a lesson on using the simple past tense of the verb "to be" in English. It includes:
1) Grammar rules for forming the simple past of "to be" with subjects and complements, including affirmative, negative, and interrogative forms.
2) Examples showing the use of was/were in affirmative, negative, interrogative and WH- question sentences.
3) Information on forming the past tense of regular and irregular verbs, including using the auxiliary "did" in interrogative sentences.

The document discusses the present perfect tense in English. It provides examples of its use for recent events, personal experiences without a specific time, and ongoing actions. It contrasts the present perfect with the past simple tense and provides examples of using already, yet, ever, and never with the present perfect. Key uses of the present perfect discussed are to describe recent events, personal experiences without a specific time, and ongoing actions that began in the past and continue in the present.
Conditional sentences have two parts: a condition and a result. There are two types of conditional sentences: real conditionals and unreal conditionals. Real conditionals use the present simple tense for the condition and present or future tense for the result, indicating the result would logically follow if the condition occurred. Unreal conditionals use the past simple tense for the condition and "would" plus a verb for the result, showing the condition is not true and the result may not happen.
The document discusses the words "too" and "enough" and how they are used to describe amounts. "Too" is used to describe having more than necessary of something and having a negative effect, like "It's too cold to work in the garden."

Examples are given of using "too" and "not...enough" with adjectives, adverbs, and infinitives.

1. '' If Clauses / Koşul - Şart Cümleleri '' konusunun detaylarını
incelemeye devam ediyoruz arkadaşlar. Bu sefer '' Omitting If ''
adını verdiğimiz '' If Devrik Cümleleri '' ele alacağız. Sık olarak
kullanılmasa da karşınıza çıkacak olan bu konunun bilinmesi sizi
yabancı dil yeterliliğinde bir adım önde tutar. Konu anlatımı hemen
aşağıdadır.
Koşul - Şart Cümlelerinde '' If '' kullanmadan devrik cümle yapabiliriz. Bunun için '' auxiliary
verb '' adını verdiğimiz '' yardımcı fiil '' i özne ile yer değiştirerek cümle başına getiririz.
Olumsuz cümlede ise '' not '' özneden sonra yazılır. Bu şekildeki devrik cümleler ikinci
bölümde de yer alabilir. Fakat cümle başında yazılması daha çok tercih edilir. Aşağıdaki
genel tabloya hep beraber bir göz atalım.
2. a) Type 1
Bu yapıyı devrik yapmak için '' Should + Subject / Özne + Verb / Fiil '' şeklinde yazabiliriz.
Yani cümle başına '' If '' yerine '' Should '' yazılır. Sonrası yine aynı şekilde ve sırada yazılır.
'' Should '' tıpkı '' If '' in cümle ortasında kullanıldığı gibi cümle ortasında da yazılabilir. Ancak
dediğimiz gibi cümle başındaki kullanımı daha yaygındır. Olumsuz cümlede ise özneden
sonra '' not '' eki getirilir.

3. b) Type 2
Bu yapıyı devrik yapmak içinse '' If '' yerine '' were '' yazılır. Ancak böyle bir durumda iki
seçenek söz konusudur. Yani;
* '' Be '' fiili için '' Were + Subject '' yazılır.
* Diğer fiiller içinse '' Were + Subject / Özne + to Verb / Fiil '' yazılır.
Yine '' Were '' ile yazılan devrik cümle, cümle ortasında da olabilir, fakat cümle başındaki
kullanımı daha yaygındır. Olumsuz cümlede ise de özneden sonra '' not '' eki gelir.

* '' Type 2 '' de Passive / Edilgen cümleleri devrik yaparken '' Were + Subject / Özne + to be

done '' şeklinde de ifade edebiliriz.
