Video: “Simple Past Tense”

(YouTube Channel: TeacherPhilEnglish)

https://youtu.be/wQO1UcvZraM

After watching the video and completing the exercises


take a look at the following important details

Emphatic did

Normally, for positive sentences we do not use the auxiliary did. But if we want to emphasize
(stress) something, or contradict something, we may use it.
For example: "I didn't use a spellchecker but I did use a dictionary."

Here are some more examples:

o "Why didn't you go to the party?" / "I did go."


o It did seem a bit strange.
o After drinking it I did in fact feel better.

Past Simple with main verb be

The structure of the Past Simple with the main verb be is:

subject + main verb be

conjugated in Past Simple

was, were

Look at these examples with the main verb be:

 He was here.
 You were in London.
 I was not there.
 We were not happy.
 Was she right?
 Were they late?

From the above table, notice the following points:

 There is no auxiliary verb, even for questions and negatives.


 The main verb (be) is conjugated in the Past Simple: was, were
 For negative sentences, we insert not after the main verb.
 For question sentences, we exchange the subject and the main verb.

GRAMMAR: Parts of Speech – Nouns vs Adjectives

Reading

Nouns and adjectives are two different things. Although their similarities are both grounded in the
world of grammar they are different in nature, in character, and in usage. There are some words
that can be a noun or an adjective depending on the context:

An example of a word that turns into a noun or adjective is the word ‘Orange’:

SENTENCE 1: SENTENCE 2:
Sally loves orange juice. There was a warm orange glow in the sky.

The word 'orange' in this sentence was The word 'orange' in this sentence was used as
used as a noun. an adjective.

Do you see the difference?


“She is confident
There are some nouns and adjectives that share the same root, when she speaks in
therefore they look alike (for example: confident and English”
confidence), however their meaning is different.
“Her confidence
helped her succeed”
Practice: For each adjective or noun, fill in the blank with the
other word.
Example: Sad – Sadness / Jealous – Jealous
