In a conversation between two people, they often use the pronouns I, WE, and YOU, as they talk to each other and this kind of conversation is called DIRECT SPEECH.  In that conversation when they talk about another person who is not in the scene is called INDIRECT SPEECH. In this indirect speech, they often use HE, SHE, IT and  THEY as pronouns. See this conversation example: Direct speech: Raja: How are you, Rani? Rani: I am fine, what about you? Indirect Speech: Raja: What did Abdul tell to him? Rani: Abdul told him to leave the job Direct and indirect speeches can used in all the present, past and future forms.

Usage of Future Tense in the Past Tense

Image
In this post, we will discuss about how to use the future tense in the past tense. Often we are in a condition to express our ideas of future times in the past times. For example, read this sentence. We could not have gotten the independence without a hard freedom struggle. In this sentence, independence achievement was a future dream in the past, understood. We can also use Might Have instead of Could Have, both will give the same meaning. In the example sentence above, the action already has finished, so it is a completed action. In normal sense, completed actions are revealed in the past tense or past perfect tense. So in the past perfect tense sense, we can use could have, might have, would have, should have, must have, need have, ought to have etc., to express future in the past tense expressions. Future in the Past Tense 1. We should have married.  2. The past lovers would not have met if the train reached exactly announced time. 3. You must not have lef...

Reflexive Pronouns in English

Image
In English language reflexive pronouns are useful in expressing emphatic representations. Emphatic pronouns can be created by adding the word SELF to the pronouns, such as HIM, HER, YOUR, MY and IT in singular expressions. The plural expressions such as THEM, YOUR, and OUR, but SELF becomes SELVES when added to these pronouns. Emphatic expressions are used in a sentence to reflect the action back to the subject part in the sentence. We will see some example sentences now. See this sentence, 'I will pay the debt myself.'

Emphatic pronoun refers to a personal pronoun and which is employed to emphasize a particular noun. In English language, there are about 23 emphatic pronouns. These pronouns can be used in any part of the sentence, such as in the subject, or in the object, and or in the possessive pronouns. The common pronouns are he, she, it and they. For example, see this sentence, Kamal is a good actor and he realized it. In this sentence, the sentence is a compound sentence attached by 'and.' In this sentence 'Kamal' is the noun and 'he' is the pronoun to denote Kamal and 'it' at the end of the sentence refers the first sentence that Kamal is a good actor. So, HE emphasizes the noun Kamal. In a sentence, any emphatic pronoun can be used for many reasons. To understand cle...

Omission of 'To' in a Sentence

Free Medical Transcription Course blog's next lesson is centralizing the idea of what is if we omit 'To' in a sentence in English Grammar. In this post we would learn in further of “omission of to” in an infinitive – verb. A sentence which has an infinitive –verb generally divided into two parts. The are S-A-V-O/C and infinitive part.  Ex: - The teacher allowed the students “to read in the class”. The above sentence consists of two objects, they are the S-A-V part and the other the infinitive part. In some cases the object may combine with the infinitive part.  Ex: - “Shah had forgotten to tell you the good result”.  So each part has a verb, the two verbs are normal verb and the infinitive – verb. If the first verb happens to be LET, FEEL, DARE, SEE, WATCH, HEAR, MAKE or HAVE  and the sentence is in the structure of S-A-V-O then the preposition “to” is to be omitted. 1. You may let your daughter walk with us. Here LET is the first verb. If ...
