Use of Gerunds in English Grammar is the content of this lesson.  We learned about superlatives in the last lesson. That is in conversation of simple sentences, we use the parts of a sentence in a manner subject-Auxiliary-Verb. This can be of any tense either of the 16 tenses. Let us see the following more examples on this infinitives.  1. I am going 'to see' my aunt at 4 a.m. (Present Continuous) 2. Mrs. Sekar is fast 'to catch' her train. (Present) 3. Jil ran 'to escape' from his assailant. (simple past) 4. Anjali was present in the class 'to give' her attendance. (past) 5. Pooma was delighted 'to capture' the intruder. (past) 6.

(future continuous) 9. The post man has been waiting here for 30 mi...

Therefore we came to the conclusion that we use the superlatives in answers to any kind of general or specific questions. Let us know the way how to identify a particular person or thing out of so many which are in the top position? In some cases we use the expression "one of the" before the superlative and we also use the noun in plural after the superlative adjective, i.e., "students", "posts". Some of the examples are: 1. Hazel is one of the best students in our school. 2. Isn't Tennyson one of the greatest poets that ever lived? 3. M.F.Hussain was not the greatest of all painters but one was one of the greatest painter. 4. Russia is one of the most technological country in the world. 5. One of the best singers of the team arrives today. 6. None of the most perfect disciples was ready to preach to the people in this city. 6. Isn't lemon one of the best fruits we saw in our country? 7. This is one of the most expen...

In the recent post you have seen that three kinds of  adjectives usage . Now in this post we would learn further information about the degrees of comparison. Then how and when to use the Comparative degree? The comparative degree is used whenever the quality is expressed which is superior to positive degrees. We note that the value of two qualities, one will overcome the other in some way. Inorder to express the difference in the quality, this comparative degree is used. A comparative my work like positive in its job as an adjective. Hence we describe it as a noun, and we must place it just to the left of a noun.  For Example: 1. Rita is a prettier girl than Dancy. In this example we have used the comparative degree - PRETTIER - followed by the word 'than'. We must use 'than' in sentences of comparative degree or otherwise the sentence is wrong. Here in the above example we have compared Dancy with Rita or Rita with Dancy. We have given result positively about Ri...

In the last lesson this post we would learn the remaining portion of adjective.  This posts explains about Degrees of Comparison.  We are learning Medical Transcription Course for Free here. Degrees of Adjectives: The adjectives which we are using in simple are said to be in positive degree. There are two more degrees. They are comparative degree and superlative degree. In most of the comparative degrees we add the letters er, ier to the positive degree and for the superlative degrees we add the letters est, iest to the positive degree. For adjectives of multi syllables or long words, we add more (or less) for the comparatives and most (or least) for superlatives like this, Let us see some of the words and their degrees of comparison. SL.NO POSITIVE                       COMPARATIVE          ...

Prior Lesson In this post we come to learn about ‘past perfect conditional statements’ and usage of ‘unless’ in conditional statements.  We use the ‘past perfect conditional statements’ only for past tense cases. In one past of the sentence we use ‘future in the past’ auxiliaries like would, have, ought to have, etc., and any past perfect or past perfect continuous form of verb in the other as shown in the following examples.  1. Wouldn’t I have gone to the spot if you had told me earlier? 2. If the teacher had not guided me, I couldn’t have come in this position. 3. The doctor might not have stumbled upon this medicine if his patients had not been complaining about the ever increasing temperature. 4.

I could have killed that snake if I had had a stick in my hand. 6. You could have borrowed your frie...

Now in this post we would learn about ‘past conditional statements’.  The auxiliaries like would, should, could or might is used in one part of the complex sentence and any past or continuous form of verb including auxiliary cum verb or past perfect form, in the other. But, in the meanwhile the tense of the statement remains in present time. Let us study the following examples from the view of the period of the time of the statement: 1. Would you help my daughter in her studies? (simple present tense) 2. I would help him if he asked me. 3. I couldn’t help her if she did not ask for it. Note: Under the present conditional statements there is no difference between the above three statements. In this case the auxiliaries used are different. Another way of determining this types of sentences are if we use a past equivalent form of auxiliary in one part of the sentence, we must use a past form of verb in the other. Yet, the entire sentence will belong to ...

In the prior lesson, we have read about ' how to use 'Dare' as an auxiliary verb '.  Now, let us come to study about a new topic namely ‘conditional statements’.  What is a Conditional Statement? A conditional statement is a statement or an undertaking wherein we agree or obey to do a work on the fulfillment of some conditions mentioned in the statement.  The tense rules are strictly followed in this types of conditional statement also called a complex sentence. In this type of complex sentences we use all the universal auxiliaries. These conditional statements are classified into three categories mainly. They are 1. Open conditional statements 2. Past conditional statements and 3. Past perfect conditional statements  Now let us see how is this open conditional statements used in the sentences.   We are learn  medical transcription lessons  in this blog.
