It also serves to express general or absolute statements not anchored in a particular time frame (Things in general) I work at home. The earth revolves around the sun Politics are a dirty business. Jill speaks four languages fluently. I get up at seven oclock every morning Mrs. Smith teaches English at my school On Sundays, we like to fish.

INTERROGATIVE FORM In the interrogative, the present is generally introduced by a form of the verb "to do" ("do / does"): Does your father like to cook? Do you have time to stop by my place? NEGATIVE FORM The appropriate form of the verb "to do" will also be used for the negative: I do not (don't) work at home. No, he does not (doesn't) like to cook. AFTER WHEN AS SOON AS ...

After the conjunctions "when," "as soon as," etc., the present is used, even though actions expressed may refer to the future: She'll come when she can. He'll pay us as soon as we finish. Forming the simple present The present is extremely regular in its conjugation. As a general rule, one uses the base form of the infinitive (minus the preposition "to"). For the third person singular ("he," "she," "it"), an "-s" is added if the verb ends in a consonant, or "-es" if the verb ends with a vowel: To work I work you work he / she / it works we work they work To go I go you go he / she / it goes we go they go However: verbs ending with "consonant + y" (for example, "to try," "to cry," "to bury," etc.) will end in "-ies" in the third person singular: To bury I bury you bury he / she buries we bury they bury

"To have", "to be" The only irregular verbs in the present are "to have," "to be," and the modal verbs. To have I have you have he / she has we have they have To be I am you are he / she is we are they are

Nouns are often preceded by the words the, a, or an. These words are called DETERMINERS. They indicate the kind of reference which the noun has. The determiner the is known as the DEFINITE

Singular the taxi the paper the apple

Plural the taxis the papers the apples

ARTICLE. It is used before both singular and plural nouns: The determiner a (or an, when the following noun begins with a vowel) is the INDEFINITE ARTICLE. It is used when the noun is singular: any taxi that question those apples this paper some apple whatever taxi whichever taxi Perhaps the most common way to express quantity is to use a numeral. We look at numerals as determiners in the next section

Numerals and Determiners Numerals are determiners when they appear before a noun. In this position, cardinal numerals express quantity:

one book two books twenty books In the same position, ordinal numerals express sequence: first impressions second chance third prize The subclass of ordinals includes a set of words which are not directly related to numbers (as first is related to one, second is related to two, etc). These are called general ordinals, and they include last, latter, next, previous, and subsequent. These words also function as determiners: next week last orders previous engagement subsequent developments When they do not come before a noun, as we've already seen, numerals are a subclass of nouns. And like nouns, they can take determiners: the two of us the first of many They can even have numerals as determiners before them: five twos are ten In this example, twos is a plural noun and it has the determiner five before it

Pronouns and Determiners


There is considerable overlap between the determiner class and the subclass of pronouns. Many words can be both:

Pronoun

Determiner

As this table shows, determiners always come before a noun, but pronouns are more independent than this. They function in much the same way as nouns, and they can be replaced by nouns in the sentences above: This is a very boring book ~Ivanhoe is a very boring book That's an excellent film ~Witness is an excellent film

On the other hand, when these words are determiners, they cannot be replaced by nouns:

This book is very boring ~*Ivanhoe book is very boring That film is excellent ~*Witness film is excellent

The personal pronouns (I, you, he, etc) cannot be determiners. This is also true of the possessive pronouns (mine, yours, his/hers, ours, and theirs). However, these pronouns do have corresponding forms which are determiners: Possessive Pronoun The white car is mine Yours is the blue coat The car in the garage is his/hers David's house is big, but ours is bigger Theirs is the house on the left Determiner My car is white Your coat is blue His/her car is in the garage Our house is bigger than David's Their house is on the left

The definite and the indefinite articles can never be pronouns. They are always determiners Definite articles v indefinite articles khng bao gi l pronouns. Chng lun lun l determiners. The Ordering of Determiners

Determiners occur before nouns, and they indicate the kind of reference which the nouns have. Depending on their relative position before a noun, we distinguish three classes of determiners

Predeterminer I met all

Central Determiner my

Postdeterminer many

Noun friends

A sentence like this is somewhat unusual, because it is rare for all three determiner slots to be filled in the same sentence. Generally, only one or two slots are filled.

Predeterminers (pre = tr c) Predeterminers specify quantity in the noun which follows them, and they are of three major types: 1. "Multiplying" expressions, including expressions ending in times: twice my salary double my salary ten times my salary 2. Fractions 3. The words all and both: all my salary both my salaries Predeterminers do not normally co-occur: *all half my salary

Central Determiners (central = gi a, trung tm) The definite article the and the indefinite article a/an are the most common central determiners: all the book half a chapter

As many of our previous examples show, the word my can also occupy the central determiner slot. This is equally true of the other possessives: all your money all his/her money all our money all their money The demonstratives, too, are central determiners: all these problems twice that size four times this amount

Postdeterminers (post = sau)


Cardinal and ordinal numerals occupy the postdeterminer slot: the two children his fourth birthday This applies also to general ordinals: my next project our last meeting your previous remark her subsequent letter Other quantifying expressions are also postdeterminers: my many friends our several achievements the few friends that I have Unlike predeterminers, postdeterminers can co-occur: my next two projects several other people
