Question : Mr. Mulyadi SAg, MM

1. What do You know about POSSIBILITY IN THE PRESENT / FUTURE ? Explain it
clearly and comprehensively !
2. Give 7 example of sentences by using Possibility  !!
3. Do the Exercise Page 15 and 16 from this module !!

Answer : Cilviana Surya

Assalamualaikum wr.wb

1. We can use modal verbs to talk about possibility or to express uncertainty in the present
and future using modal verbs may, might and could. Some suggest that ‘might‘ is less certain
than ‘may‘, but in spoken English there is really no difference. However, ‘might‘ is more
common in spoken English. The word ‘may‘ is less common, and we can only use ‘could‘ in
the positive form, not the negative form, for talking about possibility.

Present possibility To refer to present possibility, use: May / Might / Could + the verb (base
form without ‘to’) Look at Jack! He might be in a hurry to meet with Catherine. The clouds
cover the top of the mountain. It might be windy there. Don’t eat that mushroom. It could be
poisonous.

Question : Mr. Mulyadi SAg, MM

1. How do you make comparative degree in English, especially in making Positive
adjective, Comparative and Superlative in one syllable, two syllables or more and
Adjective with "Y" ( crazy, easy, happy ...)? Explain them comprehensively !!
2. Give seven ( 7 ) examples of sentences by using Positive Adjective, Comparative
Degree and Superlative Degree (  It means  you must make 21 sentences totally

Answer : Cilviana Surya

Assalamualaikum, I would like to answer the discuss. May you can correct my answer

1. Comparative Adjectives are words used to describe a noun by comparing it to another

noun. We usually think of ‘er’ words like bigger or smaller, but they can be a little trickier
than that.
The way we form comparative adjectives is based on the number of syllables in the adjective
and whether or not the adjective ends with the letter ‘y’.
Superlative Adjectives are words used to describe a noun when comparing it to two or more
nouns to the highest or lowest degree. Think: big, bigger, biggest, or small, smaller, smallest.
Like with comparative adjectives, it’s not always as simple as adding ‘est’. The number of
syllables and whether or not the adjective ends with the letter ‘y’ also help us determine how
to form a superlative adjective.
One Syllable Adjectives
Let’s look at a chart showing the comparative and superlative forms of the word for the most
basic one syllable adjectives, where we add ‘er’ for the comparative and ‘est’ for the
superlative. *Note: when the adjective follows the CVC, or consonant, vowel, consonant
spelling, the final consonant is doubled.
ADJECTIVE COMPARATIVE SUPERLATIVE
Big >> Bigger >> Biggest
Tall >> Taller >> Tallest
Small >> Smaller >> Smallest
Hot >> Hotter >> Hottest
Comparative Adjectives:
• I am faster than my friend.
• Arizona is hotter than Alaska.
Superlative Adjectives:
• She is the tallest student.
• That was the shortest movie in the series.
Notice the other words around the comparative and superlative adjectives. Most comparatives
are followed by ‘than’, and most superlatives follow the word ‘the’.
Two Syllable Adjectives
Now let’s look at a chart showing the comparative and superlative forms of the word for
adjectives with two syllables. Comparative adjectives with two syllables can be formed by
making the ‘er’ ending or by adding the words ‘more’ or ‘less’ before the adjective.
For superlative adjectives, you make the ‘est’ ending but use the word ‘most’ or ‘least’
instead of ‘more’ or ‘less’.
ADJECTIVE COMPARATIVE SUPERLATIVE
Happy >> Happier >> Happiest
Crazy >> Crazier >> Craziest
Nervous >> More/Less Nervous >> Most/Least Nervous
Massive >> More/Less Massive >> Most/Least Massive
Quiet >> Quieter or More/Less Quiet >> Quietest or Most/Least Quiet

LIKE IN ENGLISH ? EXPLAIN IT CLEARLY AND COMPREHENSIVELY !!
2. GIVE SEVEN/ 7 EXAMPLE OF SENTENCES TO DESCRIBE PEOPLE !!

Answer : Cilviana Surya

1. The first three sentence frames we will look at are simple sentences. One of the most
common ways to describe people is with adjectives: tall, short, fat, skinny, pretty, handsome,
ugly. To use these common adjectives in a sentence, try this frame:
The man is [ADJECTIVE].
The man is tall. The man is fat. The man is ugly. The man is in shape. These are all good
sentences in English.
It is important to know that The man is another slot that you can change. The woman is tall.
My friend is tall. My dad is tall. Jane is tall. She is tall. You can put any person in that slot.

Question : Mr. Mulyadi SAg, MM

1. HOW DO YOU DIFFERENCIATE  BETWEEN GERUND AND TO INFINTIVE IN
ENGLISH ? EXPLAIN THEM CLEARLY AND COMPREHENSIVELY  !!
2. Make a list of VERB which must be followed by GERUND, by TO INFINITIVE and
by both of GERUND and TO INFINTIVE !!

Answer : Cilviana Surya

Assalamualaikum wr.wb

1. The gerund is a verb that is given the suffix -ing and the function in the sentence is as a
noun or noun.

While the infinitive, as quoted from Collins COBUILD Learner's Pocket Dictionary (2015),
the infinitive of a verb is the basic form, for example "do", "be", "take", and "eat". The
infinitive is often used with “to” before it.

The infinitive is the basic form of a verb, for example “do”, “be”, “take”, and “eat”. The
infinitive is often used with "to" in front of it.

Therefore, the striking difference between the two is that the gerund uses -ing, while the
infinitive is a basic verb or usually uses "to".

comprehensively and How do you differentiate to use MUST And HAVE TO ?
2.Give Seven /7 sentences of using OBLIGATION AND NECESSITY IN THE
PRESENT !!

Answer : Cilviana Surya

Assalamualaikum wr.wb

1. 'Must' is used when you want to show that something is true and logical. For example, in
winter, people will feel cold. In addition, 'Must' can be used to indicate a very strong
obligation or an obligation that is necessary according to oneself and those around you.
Example :
It must be nice taking a holiday to Indonesia.

'Have to' is used to express a strong obligation because there is interference from outside
parties that creates the obligation.
Example :
I have to start working at 7.00 am or my boss will fire me.

1. You must respect your family.
2. You must keep the house clean.

Question : Mr. Mulyadi SAg, MM

1. Describe about "OBLIGATION AND NECESSITY IN THE PAST"
comprehensively and Mention some modals that we can use to make OBLIGATION IN
THE PAST  !!
2.Give Seven /7 sentences of using OBLIGATION AND NECESSITY IN THE PAST !!

Answer : Cilviana Surya

Assalamualaikum wr.wb

1. Have to
First, we can express an obligation with the word "have/has to" followed by the infinitive or
the first form of the verb. This word has the meaning of "must" and indicates an obligation or
obligation related to the task as a form of responsibility or commitment that has been made
by the subject. The word "have to" indicates a necessity that is also made and agreed upon by
oneself.

Example:
If I want to have a child, I have to educate myself on being a good parent.

2. Have got to
Furthermore, to express the obligation that comes from self-awareness; we can use "have/has
got to" or "got to" only. Usually, in informal writing this phrase is shortened to “gotta”. The
use of this word is followed by an infinitive.

Example:
I have to go. My mother must have been waiting for me.

3. Must
To explain an obligation imposed from outside or from another party, as well as to state a
necessity that cannot be done, we use the word "must" followed by an infinitive. The word
“must” is modal and is used in the present/present tense.

Example:
You have to listen to what your parents have to say.

4. Had to
“Hard to” is the final form of “must”. So, to explain obligations with the equivalent position
of "must" in the past tense, we use "had to" followed by the infinitive.

Example:
During my stay in Madiun, I had to speak Javanese with my grandmother.

2.
1. If I want to have a child, I have to educate myself on being a good parent.
2. I’ve got to go. My mother must be waiting for me.
3. You must listen to what your parents say.
4. During my stay in Madiun, I had to speak Javanese to my grandmother.
5. You’ll have to take off your glasses for the picture.
6. It is obligatory to use our right hand to pass things to people.
7. It is necessary that you take the bus in order to get to school on time.
