WEEK 11 ENIGMAS
EXPRESSING CRISTICISM/REGRET ABOUT PAST SITUATIONS
http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/grammarchallenge/pdfs/gc_39_should_have_quizzes.pdf
PRESENT PERFECT
http://www.englishpage.com/verbpage/presentperfect.html
- Regrets are often preceded by wishing things could be different.
- - I wish I hadn't said those awful things.
- - I should have known that my brother was in trouble.
- - I could have been a better daughter.
Modal Verb + Have + Verb 3 (Past Participle) Should have known Could have been Would have said - There are some modals of regret that are very common in spoken English. Often we use these conversationally and they can be heard quite frequently. Some of those are:
- - I should have known better.
- - I could have done better.
- - I wouldn’t have dreamed of…
- - I should have been there.
- - I shouldn’t have said that.
- - I should have taken it more seriously.
- - I would have done it differently.
These are great opportunities for more concrete examples and story-telling. You could have students complete each of these thoughts with an example from their lives or have them create hypothetical ways each could be used. - Source:http://busyteacher.org/10670-how-to-teach-modals-of-regret.html

STATE VERBS
hen a verb describes a state and not an action we do not use the continuous tense. For example, 'play' is an action so we can say 'playing' whereas 'be' is a fixed state which does not change: 'To be, or not to be'.
Grammatically it is not correct to say "Im loving it" even though McDonald's have made this expression famous. 'Love' is a state verb and so we should say "I love it".
State verbs generally fall into 4 groups:
Emotion: love, hate, want, need
Possession: have, own, want, belong
Sense: see, hear, smell, seem
Thought: know, believe, remember
Here are some more examples of state verbs:
State Verbs
| |||
doubt | dislike | understand | suspect |
loathe | own | belong | know |
like | need | want | seem |
mean | believe | forget | remember |
prefer | hate | love | see |
