2.  Has the meaning of "having". Is formed with "there" followed by the present of the verb "to
be" in the singular or plural, as appropriate.
Present Perfect of´ there is/are
There is' is used with singular countable and
uncountable nouns.
'There are' used with count nouns in plural.

3.  Afirmativo
 'There is' y 'there are' se forma con el presente del verbo "to be" en su forma
afirmativa.
 'There's' es la forma corta de there is.
 'There are" generalmente no se puede contraer, aunque a veces se hace en el
lenguaje informal.
Singular forma larga There is a shop.
Plural forma larga There are some shops
Singular forma corta There´s a shop
The negative form of 'there is and'
there are 'formed with the negative
form of the verb' to be '(there is not /
are not). You will often see the
contracted form (there isn't / there
aren't).
In negative sentences should be
borne in mind that 'any' and not
'some' is used
Interrogative
The interrogative forms of the verb "to be" (is /
are) followed by "there".
These questions are answered with the short
form: "Yes, there is / are" or "No, there isn't /
aren't".

4.  In grammar, a future tense is a verb form that generally marks the event
described by the verb as not having happened yet, but expected to happen in
the future. An example of a future tense form is the French aimera, meaning "will
love", derived from the verb aimer ("love"). English does not have a future tense
formed by verb inflection in this way, although it has a number of ways to express
the future, particularly the construction with the auxiliary verb will or shall, and
grammarians differ in whether they describe such constructions as representing a
future tense in English, one and all.
 Examples:
 I will have to.
 You will have to.
 He will have to.
Future tense of´ have to´

5.  Active Voice
 A lot of people saw the movie Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black
Pearl.
 Subject Verb Object
 A lot of people saw the movie Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the
Black Pearl.
 Agent = the person or thing that does or performs the action.
 Who is doing the verb, the seeing? A lot of people
 When the agent is in the subject position, we call this kind of sentence an
active voice sentence.

6. EXAMPLES:

7.  Something is done by someone regularly / everyday / as expected...
 Active : The gardener waters the flowers every evening.
 Passive: The flowers are watered by the gardener every evening.

 Active : My mother doesn't paint the walls.
 Passive: The walls aren't painted by my mother.

8.  Useful Tip
 Time Expressions in the Past Perfect Simple
 The time expressions already, for, since, and yet may be used in the past perfect simple, as they are in
the present perfect simple. Remember the following rules for using other time expressions:
 Use after, as soon as, the moment that, until before using the past perfect simple.
 Ex: After she had moved out, I found her notes./ I didn’t say anything until she had finished talking.
 Use before, when, by the time before the past simple:
 Ex. Before I knew it, she had run out the door. / By the time he phoned her, she had found someone
new.
 The past perfect simple is used to describe one action that happened before another action in the
past.
Past Perfect tense+´yet/already

9.  We use the quantifiers much, many, a lot of, lots of to talk about quantities, amounts and degree. We
can use them with a noun (as a determiner) or without a noun (as a pronoun).
 Much, many with a noun
 We use much with singular uncountable nouns and many with plural nouns:
 [talking about money]
 I haven’t got much change. I’ve only got a ten euro note.
 Are there many campsites near you?
 Much of, many of
 When we use much or many before articles (a/an, the), demonstratives (this, that), possessives (my,
your) or pronouns (him, them), we need to use of:
 How much of this book is fact and how much is fiction?
 Claude, the seventeenth-century French painter, spent much of his life in Italy.
 Unfortunately, not many of the photographers were there.
 How many of them can dance, sing and act?

10.  ome modal verbs such as must, can, could, May and Might is used to express a
judgment about the likelihood that particular situation or not happen. Pay
attention to the following conversation:
 Jane: What are you going to wear at the party, Laura?
 Laura: I do not know. May I wear my black dress. Or I Might wear my jeans and a
T-shirt. I Could Also wear my green skirt and a turtleneck sweater. It's so Difficult
to decide!
 May and Might are used to say that anything can happen in the present or in
the future. Might is a bit less secure than May, meaning that the speaker has little
information that is speculation. Could expresses a more "theoretical" or
permanent possibility of something happening.
Must/ Might

11.  Can "means" power "in the sense of" having capacity. "
 Birds can fly
 It is also used for permission.
 I could yo pude
 you could tú pudiste
 he could él pudo
 we could nosotros pudimos
 you could vosotros pudisteis
 they could ellos pudieron

12.  hen we communicate or report what someone else has said, there are two ways: using the
direct speech or speech.
 Direct Speech (The direct style)
 When we report exactly what someone else has said, we use the direct style. With this style
what the person has said is placed between quotation marks ("...") and shall be verbatim.
 Examples:
 Play
 "I am going to London next week," She Said. ("I'm going to London next week," she said.)
 Play
 "Do you have a pen I Could borrow," I asked. ("Do you have a pen so you can borrow
?," he asked.)

"Would you like to have dinner with me tomorrow night?")
Reported Speech

13.  he modals must, must not and need not have the same form regardless the subject. There is
no ending with he/she/it.
 ► If you want to say the sth. is unnecessary, use need not, not must not. (The negation of
must means not allowed to.)
 I must play football. = I have to play football.
 I need not play football. = I do not need to play football. = I do not have to play football.
 I must not play football. = I am not allowed to play football.
 You can use must only with Simple Present. If you want to use it with other tenses, you need
the form have to. This form is not the same regardless the subject. Look at the following
table.
