Good morning, everyone! I heard my new followers received invites from this old grammar page. Please feel free to ignore them. I haven't touched this page in years, so it's apparently running on autopilot. Sorry about that! Have a great day.

She sent a letter to me.
They sent a letter to me.

Can

Can = modal verb: modal of ability (helping verb)

Pattern: Can (modal verb: helping verb) + Vbase )base form of the verb

Example:
Can + help (Vbase)

Do/Does/Did= helping verbs; appear only in:

Do/Does = present verb form

Do = used with a plural subject or You or I

Pattern: Do + Vbase

a. Question
Example: Do you dance?

b. Negative
Example: I don’t dance.

c. Emphatic
Example: I do dance.

Does = used with a singular subject

Pattern: Does + Vbase

a. Question
Example: Does Jeremane dance?

b. Negative
Example: Jeremane doesn’t dance.

c. Emphatic
Example: Jeremane does dance.

Did = past verb form; can be used for singular or plural subjects or for I or You

Pattern: Did + Vbase

a. Question
Example: Did Jeremane dance?

b. Negative
Example: Jeremane didn’t dance.

c. Emphatic
Example: Jeremane did dance.

Note the emphatic verb form is used to emphasize verbs and make them more forceful.

In the sentence given “She ___ speak six languages.”, the subject “she” is singular, so “do” cannot be used as a helping verb.

Thefore, the answer is the helping verb “can”.

Correct Pattern: Had better + Vbase (base form of the verb)

Therefore, the correct pattern is l:
B. Had better reserve
Had better + reserve (vbase)

However,

Should and Had better are not the same:

Similiarities:
Both are used to give advice.

Difference:
Should: used to give advice or express which is a good thing to do

Example: You should quit smoking. (It is a good thing to do to quit smoking.)

Had better: used to give advice, but more on a warning since the focus is the consequence.

Example: You had better quit smoking, or else, you will end up sick. (It is a warning that there is a consequence if the advice is not done.)

Hope this helps:)

B. Noun

Articles a, an and the are only used to modify nouns. (*The can be used to modify adjectives though)

In this sentence (question), the word “watch” is before or modified by the article “a”; thefore, it is a noun.

A verb cannot be modified by an article.

Examples:

Watch as a verb:
1. I watch a movie during weekends.

Watch as a noun.
1. My mother gave me a watch.
