3.3 Comparisons.
REMEMBER: adjectives are words that helps us to describe the verb! Do not
confuse them.
Grammar rules for adjective comparisons:
1.- If an adjective end with a single vowel letter followed by a single consonant
letter, the consonant letter is doubled
2.- If an adjective end in “-E” this is removed when adding “-ER/-EST”
3.- If an adjective end in a consonant followed by “-Y” “-YIS” replaced with “-
ER/-EST”.

Remember that when we talk about actions in process we need an auxiliary verb: “VERB
TO BE”.
Complete the conjugation of the verb “TO BE”:
PRONOUN CONJUGATION OF VERB TO BE

HE/SHE/IT
WE
YOU
THEY
Now, make one sentence using the present continuous form with the clues in brackets:
(I/RUN)_________________ (THEY/BUY)_________________
(HE/DIE)________________ (IT/EAT)____________________
(WE/JUMP)______________ (YOU/CLEAN)_______________
REMEMBER:
USED TO go right after the noun.
BE USED TO needs to have the verb to be conjugated.
GET USED TO will normally have an auxiliary verb.
English.
Present perfect continuous.
When we want to talk about a situation in the past that is still present in the moment,
we need to use the present perfect continuous, where we will be taking the verb “to
have” in present, the verb “to be” past participle and the -ing conjugation of the verbs.
In this sentence, we must identify the different parts to understand the form of this
tense.
I = subject.
have = auxiliary verb “have” conjugated.
been = past participle of verb “to be”.
studying = verb in -ing.
for the exam all the year! = the period of time not specified (where you know you
started something in the past but it has effect on the present).
Using your information, create 5 sentences using the present perfect continuous
tense:
1. ___________________________________________
2. ___________________________________________
