Grammar videos: Comparative and superlative adjectives
Remember to watch the video first! Then read the

conversation between Sophie and Giovanni, a student
she met on her trip to Rome. Sophie’s an expert on
English grammar and Giovanni has an exam on
comparatives and superlatives next week!
When we want to compare two or more things, we can change the form of adjectives by adding –er
or –est. We can also use extra words like more or most and expressions like not as … as.
Here are some examples:

I think you're taller than me. (tall)
She's the tallest in the group. (tall)
The pizzas in La Bella Napoli are better than the ones in Pietro's. (good)
It was the best pizza I've ever had! (good)
People say Bioshock is a more exciting game than Skyrim. (exciting)
Grand Theft Auto is the most exciting video game. (exciting)
Sophie
Mmm, I don't quite see what the rule is here.
Giovanni
With most one-syllable adjectives, we add –er or –est, and with most
adjectives with two syllables or more, we add more or (the) most.
In comparatives, we also use than before the second thing which is
compared, if it is mentioned.
La Bella Napoli is nearer than Pietro's. (near)
It's not the cheapest restaurant though. (cheap)
With one-syllable adjectives ending in vowel + consonant, remember to
double the final consonant before –er/–est.
big → bigger → biggest
If the adjective ends in –e, just add –r or –st.
large → larger → largest
So what are the exceptions, apart from good → better → best?
Other exceptions are bad → worse → worst and far → further/farther →

furthest/farthest.
They use the worst cheese.
What about adjectives ending in –y, like crazy? My brother is crazier than me.
Yes, that's correct. With adjectives ending in y, you change the y to i and add
er/ est.
lucky → luckier → luckiest
happy → happier → happiest
They've got the friendliest waiters!
With most adjectives with typical adjective endings, and with two or more
syllables, you use more/most + adjective.
They do the most disgusting pasta I've ever tasted.
What other ways of comparing things are there?
We often use not as … as.

I'm not as tall as you. (= I'm smaller than you)
Maybe the pizza at La Bella Napoli isn't as good as I remember.
And what about less and least?
Yes, less and least are also ways of comparing things. They are used more
in writing.
It is less cold in the north of the country than in the south. (the north is
warmer, but both north and south are cold)
Of the four participants, Bill is the least experienced. (the other three
have more experience)
OK. This isn’t as hard as I thought. I think I’ve got it, more or less.

Grammar videos: Countable and uncountable nouns

conversation between Sophie and Thierry, a student
Sophie met on her travels. Sophie is teaching Thierry
about types of nouns.
Some nouns in English are countable – we can use them in singular and plural forms. Some are
uncountable – they only have one form.
We often use a/an with singular countable nouns and some with plurals. We
can also use some with uncountable nouns.
What are examples of countable nouns?
Here are a few:

Thierry Sophie
I've got a steak, some red chilli peppers, some potatoes…
OK, well, I've got a lemon, an apple … and some chicken breasts.
I'd like a blue pen, please.
OK, so for things you can count, like one pen, two
pens … Why did you say a pen, not one pen?
We often use a/an before singular countable nouns. Before words that start
with a vowel sound, we use an, and before words that start with a consonant
sound, we use a.
So is one wrong? As in Would you like one drink?
It sounds as if you're saying one (not two). If you're offering someone a drink,
you'd say Would you like a drink?
But someone who works in a café might say, So that's one coffee and two
lemonades.
So it's usually a or an for singular countable nouns and a

number or some for plurals. How many is some?
It can be any number more than one.
I got some new jeans at the weekend. (a pair of new jeans)
Some teachers left at the end of the year. (we don't know how many)
Is some or a number always used with plurals?
No, have a look at these examples

I'm frightened of dogs. (dogs in general)
Strawberries have a lot of vitamin C. (strawberries in general)
What about uncountable nouns?
These are nouns that don't have a plural form.

I've got some garlic and some butter.
I'm looking for information about early rock and roll.
I haven't got enough paper.
You have to get permission from the head teacher.
Do you want some cake?
So, I can use some with uncountables too?
Yes, we use some with both countables and uncountables.
How do I know whether a noun is countable or uncountable?
A dictionary will tell you. Usually dictionaries use symbols [C] for countable
and [U] for uncountable.
Just a minute. You said cake was uncountable.

What about I made a cake this morning?
Yes that's correct, but there's a difference in meaning.
I made a cake this morning. (a whole cake – countable)
Do you want some cake? (a piece of cake – uncountable)
A box of chocolates. (individual chocolates – countable)
I'd like some chocolate too. (a piece or pieces of chocolate from a
bar of chocolate – uncountable)
I thought coffee and lemonade were uncountable too.
Yes, they are usually.

I love coffee with hot milk. (uncountable)
Can you get some coffee? (uncountable)
I'll have a coffee, please. (a cup of coffee, countable)
Wow, so it's more complicated than I thought.
No, they're not really very difficult.
OK, they're easy. It's a piece of cake!
Yes, simple! A piece of cake!

Discussion
Do you think you would enjoy camping at a music festival? Why or why not?
Grammar videos: Conjunctions: and, or, but, so, because and although

conversation between Sophie and Hakan, an English
language student that Sophie met when visiting Austria.
We use words called conjunctions, like and, or, but, because and although, to join two
parts of sentences. Conjunctions can be used to give more information, give alternatives,
give reasons, give results or give unexpected information.
We use and, or and but to connect two parts of sentences which are similar
in grammatical status.
Do you want chocolate, strawberry or vanilla? (joining words)
Amy's dad is taking us on Saturday morning, and he's offered to bring
us home again on Sunday. (joining clauses)
We use and for adding information, or for giving alternatives and but for
unexpected or different information.
I'm OK for food, dance and music, and I'm having a wonderful time. Sophie
There's a reggae band from Jamaica or a Russian electro-pop group on
the other stage.
She’d like to go but she can’t.
Can we use these words at the beginning of a sentence?
Hakan
We don’t usually use conjunctions to start sentences when we’re writing, but
people do when they’re speaking.
Or when they’re chatting on the internet?
Yes. There are a lot more conjunctions which we use to connect one clause
with another clause. For example: because, for giving reasons, so, for talking
about results or purposes, and although, for unexpected or different
information.
I'd like to see that Irish band, because Celtic music is pretty cool.
(the second clause explains the reason Alfie wants to see the Irish band)
Although he doesn’t like camping, he goes to lots of music festivals.
(the speaker thinks it’s unusual to go to music festivals if you don’t like
camping)
... we'll be there by 12. Although we have to put up our tents too.
(the information in the second sentence is different to, and contrasts, the
information in the first sentence)
It's one of those cars for seven people, so there's plenty of room.
(the second clause shows the result of the first clause)
We need to arrive early so (that) we can get a good place.

(the second clause shows the purpose of the first clause; that is
optional)
With that although sentence, can you put the clauses in a different order?
Yes, both orders are possible.
He goes to lots of music festivals, although he doesn’t like camping.
Can you also say ‘even though he doesn’t like camping’?
Yes, that means the same thing. There are a lot more conjunctions, but that’s
enough for today.
But …
No ‘buts’. It’s better to look at a small amount at a time …
So that I can remember it?
Exactly.

Grammar videos: Passive forms

conversation between Sophie and Jun, an English
language student that Sophie met in China. Sophie’s
helping Jun understand how to use passive forms.
We use the passive, rather than the active, to show that we are more interested in a certain
part of the sentence. The passive is usually formed by the verb to be + past participle.
Can you give me some examples of the active and passive?
Yes, of course. Here’s a passive sentence:

Jun
My room is being cleaned.
'My room' is the main focus of the sentence. The active form would be 'The
cleaners are cleaning my room'. This sounds strange because it is obvious
that, if you are in a hotel, cleaners would clean your room. So we
sometimes use the passive to avoid stating the obvious.
Sophie
OK, that makes sense. Are there any other uses?
We also use the passive when we don’t know who did something, or when it
isn’t important.
It’s the biggest outdoor elevator in the world, so I’ve been informed.
It doesn’t matter who told me.
I think loads of films have been made there.
The important thing is the films, not the film-makers.
Can you use a passive and also say who did the action?
Yes.
Avatar was made by James Cameron.

Grammar videos: Passive forms
Is the passive formal?
No, not necessarily. It can be formal or neutral or informal.
I hope to find everything clean and tidy … you’ve been warned!
But we often avoid the passive in very informal spoken language, for
example, by using they.
They based the scenery in Avatar on the landscape here.
We don’t know exactly who they are, but we can guess that it’s the people
who made the film.
I think I’ve heard people use you a lot too when

they don’t refer to anyone in particular.
Yes, very good! That’s another way of sounding more informal. You is a bit
different; it means 'people in general'.
Parcels can be collected from the Post Office between 9 a.m. and
5 p.m. (more formal)
You can collect parcels between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. (less formal)
One last question, what about the passive with get? Is that informal too?
Yes, when we’re speaking informally we also often use get rather than the
verb be.
He was sacked from his job. = He got sacked from his job.
But be careful, not all verbs can be used in the passive with get – only verbs
for talking about an action or a change.
She was knocked off her bike by a bus. = She got knocked off her
bike by a bus.
Charlie Chaplin was loved by millions. Charlie Chaplin got loved by
millions.
Phew, OK. I think my brain has been fried by all this!
Ah, OK, we’ll stop. But look – you’re using the passive correctly already!

Grammar videos: Conditionals

conversation between Sophie and Anna, an English
language student that Sophie met in Iceland. Sophie’s
helping Anna understand how to use conditionals.
We use conditional sentences to say one thing depends on another. They can be used to
talk about real or imaginary situations. One of the clauses starts with if (or a similar word)
– this is the conditional clause. The other clause talks about the result of the conditional
clause happening.
Ummm?
Don’t worry, it’s a lot easier than it sounds. Let’s look at some examples.
If you don’t tell me, I’ll just keep asking.

If I promise to travel less, will you forgive me?
Anna I know that one. It’s a first conditional: if + present simple, then will + infinitive.
That’s right. It’s for talking about a situation in the future which the speaker
thinks is quite possible. If the first condition happens, something will happen as
a result. In this conditional sentence, the present tense after if refers to the
future, not the present. Sophie
And can you change the order of the clauses round?
Yes, and we leave out the comma in the middle of the sentence if the order
is changed round.
I’ll just keep asking if you don’t tell me.
OK. I also know the second conditional. If + past simple, then would + infinitive.
Right again! This is for talking about an unlikely or unreal condition.

If you travelled less because of me, I’d feel worse.
If I had the opportunity to visit places like that, I wouldn’t complain!
So, in the second example, Oliver doesn’t think he will have the opportunity
to travel a lot. It’s possible but improbable. We use the past simple to show
that it’s not likely, not to indicate past time.
Grammar videos: Conditionals
Can you use any other verbs, apart from would, in this kind of conditional?
Yes, we sometimes use other modal verbs like might or could in the result
clause (not the if clause).
I see. What about, 'If you mix blue and yellow, you get green'. Is that
a conditional?
Yes. That’s a zero conditional. We often use them for facts, or in academic
subjects.
When it rains a lot, the animals move to higher ground. (geography)
What about other words that can replace if, like unless and as long as?
Well, unless is a kind of negative version of if.

I’ll never go unless you take me. (= If you don’t take me, I’ll never go.)
As long as imposes a condition on someone. You’re telling them what you

expect them to do.
You can borrow my surfboard as long as you get it back to me by five

o’clock.
So if you agree to what I say, you can borrow my surfboard?
Exactly.
Are there any other conditionals?
Well, there’s the third conditional, but we’ll deal with that separately.
Phew! Now, if you don’t mind, I’ll have to stop there.
That’s fine, as long as everything’s clear!

Grammar videos: Reported speech

conversation between Sophie and David, an English
language student who Sophie met on her travels.
Sophie’s helping David understand how to use reported
speech.
We use reported speech when we want to tell someone what someone said. We usually
use a reporting verb (e.g. say, tell, ask, etc.) and then change the tense of what was
actually said in direct speech.
So, direct speech is what someone actually says? Like

'I want to know about reported speech'?
Yes, and you report it with a reporting verb.
He said he wanted to know about reported speech.
David
I said, I want and you changed it to he wanted.
Sophie
Exactly. Verbs in the present simple change to the past simple; the present
continuous changes to the past continuous; the present perfect changes to
the past perfect; can changes to could; will changes to would; etc.
She said she was having the interview at four o’clock.
(Direct speech: 'I’m having the interview at four o’clock.')
They said they’d phone later and let me know.
(Direct speech: 'We’ll phone later and let you know.')
OK, in that last example, you changed you to me too.
Yes, apart from changing the tense of the verb, you also have to think about
changing other things, like pronouns and adverbs of time and place.
'We went yesterday.' > She said they had been the day before.
'I’ll come tomorrow.' > He said he’d come the next day.
I see, but what if you’re reporting something on the

same day, like 'We went yesterday'?
Well, then you would leave the time reference as 'yesterday'. You have to use
your common sense. For example, if someone is saying something which is
true now or always, you wouldn’t change the tense.
'Dogs can’t eat chocolate.' > She said that dogs can’t eat chocolate.
'My hair grows really slowly.' > He told me that his hair grows really
slowly.
What about reporting questions?
We often use ask + if/whether, then change the tenses as with statements. In
reported questions we don’t use question forms after the reporting verb.
'Do you have any experience working with people?'
They asked if I had any experience working with people.
'What acting have you done?'
They asked me what acting I had done.
Is there anything else I need to know about reported speech?
One thing that sometimes causes problems is imperative sentences.
You mean like 'Sit down, please' or 'Don’t go!'?
Exactly. Sentences that start with a verb in direct speech need a to + infinitive
in reported speech.
She told him to be good. (Direct speech: 'Be good!')

He told them not to forget. (Direct speech: 'Please don’t forget.')
OK. Can I also say 'He asked me to sit down'?
Yes. You could say 'He told me to …' or 'He asked me to …' depending on
how it was said.
OK, I see. Are there any more reporting verbs?
Yes, there are lots of other reporting verbs like promise, remind, warn,
advise, recommend, encourage which you can choose, depending on the
situation. But say, tell and ask are the most common.
Great. I understand! My teacher said reported speech was difficult.
And I told you not to worry!
