Speak English with Berya Mazemba Spark

Now, let's learn gerund and infinitive of the verb " regret"
---> When we use regret with the gerund it means that we feel sorry about something we did or didn't in the past.
Ex: I regret telling him my story
----> when we use regret with the infinitive, it means that we regret about something we are about to say
Ex: I regret to tell him my story

Hello everyone. Today, in this post you're going to discover something different: THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ALTOGETHER AND ALL TOGETHER.
-->Altogether is an adverb which means "completely" whereas all together is an adverb as well but it means "as a group" or "everyone '
Let's exemplify them:
-->I am altogether tired
-->let's sing this song all together

Let's compare :
- Mr. Mazemba has gone to the university ( he won't be back for a while
- Mr. Mazemba has been to university (he has just got back)
So gone means "gone and still away".been means "gone and come back".

We can use the verb TO BE with the continuous for behaviour over a period of time
Ex: My children are being silly
Now let's compare these two following sentences :
-You're being stupid ( behaviour for a time)
- You're stupid (permanent quality )

FROM AND SINCE
Let us compare from and since by giving Examples
- I was here from 7 o'clock( I came here at 7)
- I have been here since 7 o'clock ( I am still here)

SO AND SUCH
We use so and such to mean "very"but there is a difference between them
So takes an adjective or an adverb
Ex: Mr. Spark is so handsome
Mr. Faithful works so hard.
Such takes an adjective + a noun or a noun only
Ex: Mr. Foolproof is such a great guy
You're such an idiot.
