tenses in a

containing
time clause
8) For this sentence, what are the 2 actions? These 2 actions are
in parallel. Action 1 is long or short? 2? So, if 2 parallel actions
are long, what is then their tense?
9) In the last sentence, it is consecutive action like in the 1st and
2nd examples, but the difference is that it is a consecutive
action in the future. So, what are the 2 consecutive actions in
the future here? which action goes first? 2nd? What is the
tense of the 1st action? What is the tense of the 2nd? So, the
1st action is in the present simple (V-to, V(e)s). The 2nd action
is in the future simple(Will+V-to)
10) What is the S of the 1st V here? The 2nd one? How about the
O?
11) So, these are called clause. And they are joined by these
words that we call “time words”. And the clause which goes
after the time word is the time clause
12) But NB that the two clauses in a sentence can exchange their
places but when the time clause goes first there must be a
“,”.
13) For example, if we take the 1st sentence, It will become:
Before he went to school, A had taken a shower.
14) Can you do the 2nd sentences? Please write it on the Bb.
15) Please, do this exercise in 5 mins.
16) Can I have some volunteers to do the 1st sentence?
17) Do you agree with this answer?
