Basics of English Grammar

Action Verbs

Action verbs express action and are the most common verbs.

Action verbs need s at the end with third-person, singular subjects.

He eats bread.
She walks to the station.
It floats on the sea.

Negative sentences need do not, does not, or did not.

I do not eat bread.
He does not eat bread.
You did not walk to the station.
It does not float on the sea.

Interrogative sentences begin with do, does, or did.

Do you eat bread?
Does he eat bread?
Does she walk to the station?
Did they finish it?

Do not can be shortened to don't, does not to doesn't, and did not to didn't.

I don't eat bread.
She doesn't walk to the station.
It doesn't float on the sea.
They didn't finish it.

Remember the variations of action verbs:

Common Mistake in English

“Our House Is Near To The Beach.”❎

“Near” and “close to” mean the same thing, but “to” is never used after “near.” The correct sentence is “Our house is near the beach” or “Our house is close to the beach.

English Speaking rule of the day

I used to + (verb)

'Used to' expresses something that was done in the past, and is not usually done now.

Here are some examples:

"I used to develop websites."
"I used to jog every day."
"I used to paint."
"I used to smoke."
"I used to work from home."
"I used to live in California."
"I used to go to the beach every day."
"I used to sing in a choir."
"I used to like vegetables."
"I used to start work at 6 o'clock."

Common Mistake in English

“I’m Thinking To Buy A New Car.”❎

“To + infinitive” is not used after “think,” so the correct sentence would be: “I’m thinking of buying a new car” or “I’m thinking about buying a new car.”
