What Does "Party Personality" Mean?

Your party personality is the rarely-seen aspect of your character that becomes evident at a party. Drinking, music, and peer pressure catalyze your party personality's exposure.

What's the Party Personality Quiz?

A test that analyzes your behavior at a party is called a party personality quiz. The goal of such a test is to determine what type of person you are in gatherings-specifically, the gatherings that include alcohol and other naughty stuff.

For a broader analysis, take " What Type of Person Am I?"

What Are the 16 Party Personalities?

Identify your party personality using your MBTI type. The 16 personality types each have their unique stereotypical "party persona." Find yours with the following descriptions.

INFP: Forced to Party

That one introverted person who's never enjoying the party.

ESFJ: Uninvited Guest

The dude who gets into a party with a bunch of self-invited friends.

ISFJ: Deep Talk Starter

An annoying, compulsive chatter who philosophizes everything after the second shot.

ENTJ: Outrageous Flirt

The camouflaged simp who's really pushing for a hookup.

ISFP: AUX Maniac

A wannabe DJ who's guarding the AUX with their life.

ESTP: Stunt

That one crazy dude who's guaranteed to break a bone or two.

INTJ: Bathroom Seeker

The introverted friend asks for the bathroom and disappears.

ENTP: Argumentative Drunk

That easygoing guy who's now argumentative about everything, thanks to tequila. (They often insist you tell them what political party you are.)

ISTJ: Control Freak

An OCD-positive friend who's now helicopter-parenting everyone at the party.

ESFP: Selfie Monster

The fake party animal who's only at the party for their Instagram feed.

INTP: Socially Awkward

That creepy, shivering person in the corner dying of social anxiety for no apparent reason.

ENFP: High AF

The "I only smoke when I'm drunk" guy who's actively giving away groundbreaking ideas to random party guests.

ENFJ: Lethal Hugger

An intoxicated stranger with a deadly love language-hugging to death.

INFJ: Phone Addict

The "No, thanks. I'm cool" person who can't get enough of their phone at a party.

ESTJ: Responsible Invitee

That supportive friend who's now playing the party host's mom or dad-forcing everyone to behave themselves.

ISTP: Texting Drunk

A crying or sobbing guest who's trying to get back with their ex now that they're drunk AF.

What Kind of Person Are You at a Party?

You now know all the 16 party personalities. But which one are you? It'd be only fair to let us be the judge because you're clearly biased. The following questions, combined with our party animosity detectors, reveal the type of person you are at a party-accurately! Are you brave enough to take the quiz and share the results? (We doubt that.)

News and Media

In this pre-advanced vocabulary lesson, you will learn about the essential words and phrases related to the world of news and media. From television and radio to newspapers and publishing, these terms will help you navigate the ever-evolving landscape of information and communication. Check the following pictures and read the descriptions and examples to grasp the exact meaning of each term and how to use it.

Radio and Television

An 1 anchor is a person who reads the news on television, usually from a recording studio, and a 2 correspondent is a type of journalist who reports news from a specific country or on a particular topic. If you watch a regular news programme, you're likely to see an anchor delivering the main part of the news, talking to a correspondent who is on video from the place where the news feature is taking place.

A 3 viewer is a person who watches a programme, event, or report on television, while a 4 listener is a person who listens to these things on the radio.

6 Live coverage is the term used to describe a programme or report that is broadcast while it is happening or has just happened. This is common with pressing news reports, concerts, and important sporting events.

Live coverage of the match enabled viewers all over to watch the match as it happened.

A 11 current affairs programme is a programme in which people discuss topics or events of interest that are happening in the world at the present time. These can be political, social, or environmental matters on which speakers often express their views.

Newspapers and Publishing

A 1 headline is a line of words printed in larger writing that you see at the top of articles in newspapers and magazines, especially on the front page. When something makes the headlines, it is important and is receiving a lot of media attention.

An 2 article is a piece of writing that you find in newspapers, magazines, and online. They usually contain a headline and focus on a particular story.

3 Editorial articles express the opinion of the newspaper's editorial board on a particular issue. They often reflect the newspaper's stance on important topics.

A 5 journalist is a person whose job is to collect news and write about it for newspapers, magazines, television, or radio, and an 6 editor is a person who checks and corrects articles and books before they are published. So, after a journalist submits an article, it is always checked by an editor. An editor is also the person who is in charge of a newspaper or magazine and who decides what will be published in each edition of it.

A 7 column is a piece of writing that appears regularly in a newspaper or magazine and is usually written by the same person. They usually focus on a particular topic and appear in the same part of a newspaper in every publication.

A 9 feature is a piece of writing that you see in newspapers and magazines that is longer than a regular article. They vary in type but usually cover a topic in greater depth than a regular article and often look at it from a different perspective.

I read a five-page featureabout veganism in a food magazine last week.

A 11 tabloid is a type of newspaper that has small pages and short articles. They are often considered to be less serious than regular newspapers and usually contain a lot of photos.

A 12 media outlet is a broadcasting channel providing news, information and feature stories to the public by way of newspapers, magazines, social media and the Internet, television and radio.

There are also some important adjectives that are used to describe articles and features. 14 Biased is an adjective that we use to describe an article in which the writer illustrates their own personal opinions or preferences rather than simply providing information. 15 Unbiased has the opposite meaning, so an unbiased article is written in a more informative, neutral tone.

Exercise 3

Fill in the gaps in the text with words from the list.
although as as a result due to However in case in order so so as to so that therefore
Clauses of contrast

although, even though

We can use although/even though at the beginning or in the middle of a sentence followed by a clause (subject + verb). We NEVER use a comma after although or event though.

however

We use however to connect two different sentences. We normally use however at the beginning of the second sentence after a full stop (.) or a semi-colon (;). However is ALWAYS followed by a comma.

We can also use however at the end of the sentence.

despite/in spite of

Despite and in spite of are normally followed by a noun or a - ing verb. They can go at the beginning or in the middle of the sentence.

We can use a clause (subject + verb) after despite/in spite of + the fact that.

Clauses of purpose

to + infinitive

The most common way to express purpose in English is to + infinitive.

in order to/so as to + infinitive

In order to or so as to + infinitive are more common in formal English, mainly in writing. The negative forms are in order not to and so as not to + infinitive.

so that + clause

We can also use so that + subject + verb to express purpose. We normally use a modal verb with this connector, e.g. could, can, would, etc.

for + noun

We can also use for + noun to express purpose.

We can use for + - ing verb (instead of to + infinitive) to talk about the purpose of an object or action when we use the verb used or when we imply it.

in case + clause

To express purpose, we can also use in case+ subject + verb. We use this form to talk about precautions, when we do something because something not wanted might happen.

Clauses of reason

When we want to explain the reason why something happened or why someone did something, we use a clause of reason introduced by a conjunction ( as, since, because) or a noun phrase introduced by because of, due to, owing to, or on account of.

because

We use because before a clause (subject + verb). It can be used at the beginning or at the end of a sentence (at the end is more common). A comma is used when the clause of reason is at the beginning of the sentence.

as/since

We use as and since in a very similar way to because. They are followed by subject + verb and can be used at the beginning or at the end of a sentence. However, as and since are more formal expressions, and more common in written than in spoken English.

because of

We use because of before a noun.

due to/owing to/on account of

We can also use before a noun. They mean 'because of' but are more formal.

Clauses of result

We use clauses of result to talk about the result of an action or situation.

so

We can use so + subject + verb at the end of a sentence to mean 'this is why'.

for this reason

We normally use for this reason at the beginning of a sentence. We use a comma after it.

as a result/consequently/therefore

As a result, c onsequently and therefore are more formal and more common in written language. They are normally used at the beginning of a sentence, followed by a comma.

We can also use consequently and therefore in mid position (before the verb, after be as main verb, or after the first auxiliary verb).

REMEMBER

Although the difference in meaning is small with these particular verbs, and gerunds and infinitives can often be used interchangeably, there is still a meaning difference. Using a gerund suggests that you are referring to real activities or experiences. Using an infinitive suggests that you are talking about potential or possible activities or experiences. Because of this small difference in meaning, gerunds and infinitives cannot always be used interchangeably, such as in the examples below.

Examples:

The British reporter likes living in New York.

The British reporter likes to live in New York whenever he works in the United States.

I like speaking French because it's such a beautiful language.

All forms of gerunds and infinitives

You can see all the gerund and infinitive forms in the table below. Some forms are not included in the table because they don't exist or are very rarely used.

Simple, continuous and perfect infinitives and gerunds

We use the perfect infinitive or the perfect gerund to emphasize that the action is complete or in the past.

Simple gerund vs perfect gerund

There is usually no difference between using the simple gerund or the perfect gerund because the context usually makes it clear when the action happened.

But sometimes there is a difference in meaning between using the simple gerund or the perfect gerund.

Simple infinitive vs perfect infinitive

As it happens with the gerund, sometimes there's no difference between using the simple or the perfect forms of the infinitive.

However, there is usually a difference in meaning between using the simple or the perfect infinitive forms, and we need to use the perfect forms to make clear that the action expressed by the infinitive was previous to the action described by the main verb.

Continuous infinitive

We use the continuous infinitive the express that the action is in progress around the time expressed by the main verb.

Perfect continuous infinitive

We use the perfect continuous infinitive to express duration from earlier in the past towards the time expressed by the main verb.

Perfect infinitive after passive reporting verbs

After a passive reporting verb, we use a simple or continuous infinitive to refer to the present or future, and a perfect infinitive to refer to the past. (⇒ See B1+ Grammar " The passive with reporting verbs)

Perfect infinitive after would like, would hate, would rather, would prefer

We always use the perfect infinitive after would like, would hate, would rather, would prefer to refer to an earlier action or event. Compare:

Passive infinitives and gerunds

We use passive infinitives or passive gerunds to describe actions which are done to the subject. (⇒ See B1+ Grammar " The passive voice - all tenses)

When to use gerund or infinitive

In the table below, you can see when to use gerund or infinitive.

Tourism

In this pre-advanced vocabulary lesson about Tourism, you will learn about common places to visit, verbs and idioms related to travel, and adjectives to describe different types of places. Check the pictures below and read the definitions and sentence examples to enhance your tourism-related vocabulary.

Places to go

1 Tourist attractions are places such as monuments, famous buildings, and museums that are popular among visiting tourists. Tourist attractions are often crowded because many people want to see them.

2 A seafront is a coastal part of a town or city that faces the sea. People often walk along the seafront so they can look out to sea. Many seafronts have cafes facing them where one can sit and admire the view.

3 Backstreets are narrow streets behind the busy main streets, often in a poorer area of town. They are usually quieter than main streets as they don't contain many shops and are therefore not usually used by tourists.

4 Amusement parks are outdoor areas where people can enjoy rides, games, and other forms of entertainment. Many are only open at certain times of the year, as they are not usually equipped to deal with bad weather.

5 Ruins are the remains of buildings, cities, or monuments that are in a state of disrepair.

6 Hiking trails are paths through mountains or forest areas that are marked out for walkers. Hiking trails can vary in length, with some stretching hundreds of kilometres.

7 Food markets are covered outdoor areas with many different vendors selling various types of food. People enjoy visiting food markets and sampling the different types of food.

8 Nature reserves are parks, forests, or other outdoor areas that are managed to protect their plants and wildlife. Many people visit nature reserves to enjoy the flowers, trees, and views.

9 A crafts fair is an event where people gather to showcase and sell handmade items, often including artwork, jewelry, pottery, and other unique crafts.

Verbs and idioms

1 If you go off track, you go away from the popular tourist routes. Many tourists often go off track to get a more authentic taste of a place.

2 To make a reservation means to book something ahead of time. People often make reservations at restaurants to ensure that they get a table.

3 To chill out means to relax and take it easy. You can chill out at home by relaxing on the sofa, but you can also chill out on holiday sitting on a beach or in a bar. Unwind is similar to chilling out. When you unwind, you relax and forget about work and the stresses of daily life.

4 To stroll means to walk at a leisurely pace, with no particular aim. You can through the streets of a town, taking in the buildings and sights, or you can stroll down a country lane and enjoy the natural surroundings.

5 If you hit the shops, you go shopping, usually for clothes, presents, or souvenirs. People often hit the shops when on holiday to buy things that they can't get at home.

6 To sample the local cuisine means to taste the food of the area that you're visiting. Many tourists enjoy sampling the local cuisine in markets or local restaurants.

7 If you pack your bags, you put your clothes and belongings in a suitcase or rucksack. People pack their bags when preparing to go on or return from a trip or holiday.

8 To take a detour means to take a different route to a place in order to avoid something or save time. People often take detours because of traffic, road closures, or building work.

9 We use the verb form go on before nouns related to travel, trips or similar, such as holiday, trip, journey, excursion, tour, cruise, safari, etc.

Adjectives to describe places

1 Unspoilt or unspoiled means in its natural state, not ruined or changed by humans. We are more likely to describe the countryside as unspoilt than we are a city or town.

2 Remote is a word we use to describe a place that is isolated and far from transport links. Remote areas are usually unspoilt because very few people visit them.

3 Off the beaten track means away from areas and attractions that are usually visited by tourists. Many people like to find somewhere off the beaten track because they are seeking peace and relaxation.

4 If a place is touristy, it's not very nice because it's full of tourists and things for tourists to buy or do. Areas with monuments, galleries, and famous buildings are usually very touristy.

5 Picturesque and 6 breathtaking are both words that we use to describe a place or view that is very attractive. Picturesque means beautiful, like a scene from a picture or postcard, whereas breathtaking means so beautiful that it takes your breath away.

7 Something or somewhere that is overrated is said to be better than it actually is. Restaurants are often described as overrated when the food is not as good as you expected it to be.

8 Vibrant or lively means full of life, so a city or place that is vibrant or lively usually has many things going on and lots of things to do.

9 Exotic means exciting or unusual because it comes from or is characteristic of a different place. We can describe a place as exotic, but we can also use the word to describe food, music, or people too.

What are participle clauses?

Participle clauses are not very common in spoken English; however, you can find lots of examples in written English, maybe because participle clauses can be very useful. They allow us to express condition, reason, cause, result or time in a similar way to full adverbial clauses, only with less words. Look at a couple of examples:

As she didn't know where the theatre was , she asked for directions at the reception. (reason)

-ing participle clauses

This is one of the most common participle clauses. We can use - ing participle clauses to refer to the present or the past.

Having + past participle clauses

By using the perfect - ing participle clause you can emphasise that an action was previous to another. These clauses are commonly used to express the cause of a second action.

It's common to have the passive structure having been + past participle as an alternative to a since-clause (reason):

Participle clauses can also follow prepositions or conjunctions: after, before, instead of, without, when, while, etc. This use of prepositions or conjunctions before participle clauses (mainly - ing participle clauses) is quite common:

Past participle clauses (-ed/third column)

Past participle clauses usually replace a sentence with a verb in the passive voice.

Found in a litter bin, the briefcase contained classified information. (=The briefcase was found.)

Impressed by the painting, John praised the artist. (=He was impressed by the painting.)

Founded 20 years ago, the company has received many awards. (=The company was founded 20 years ago.)

Located in the city centre, the bar is very popular among tourists. (=The bar is located in the city centre)

Note that these participle clauses can often be replaced by a relative clause:

Be careful with this common mistake!

You must always make sure that the subject of the verb in the participle clause and the subject of the verb in the main clause are the same. Using two different subjects is the most common mistake students make when they try to use participle clauses.

If you mix it with soda, the cocktail tastes even better. (The subject of mix is you, and the subject of tastes is the cocktail.)

Mixing it with soda, the cocktail tastes even better. (The subjects are different.)
Mixed with soda, the cocktail tastes even better. (Same subject)

If you water them at night, the plants live longer.

Watering them at night, the plants live longer.
Watered at night, the plants live longer.

Look at these examples to see how participle clauses are used.

Looked after carefully, these boots will last for many years.
Not wanting to hurt his feelings, I avoided the question.
Having lived through difficult times together, they were very close friends.

Try this exercise to test your grammar.

Read the explanation to learn more.

Grammar explanation

Participle clauses enable us to say information in a more economical way. They are formed using present participles ( going, reading, seeing, walking, etc.), past participles ( gone, read, seen, walked, etc.) or perfect participles ( having gone, having read, having seen, having walked, etc.).

We can use participle clauses when the participle and the verb in the main clause have the same subject. For example,

Waiting for Ellie, I made some tea. ( While I was waiting for Ellie, I made some tea.)

Participle clauses do not have a specific tense. The tense is indicated by the verb in the main clause.

Participle clauses are mainly used in written texts, particularly in a literary, academic or journalistic style.

Present participle clauses

Here are some common ways we use present participle clauses. Note that present participles have a similar meaning to active verbs.

Past participle clauses

Here are some common ways that we use past participle clauses. Note that past participles normally have a passive meaning.

With a similar meaning to an if condition
Used in this way, participles can make your writing more concise. (If you use participles in this way, ... )

Perfect participle clauses

Perfect participle clauses show that the action they describe was finished before the action in the main clause. Perfect participles can be structured to make an active or passive meaning.

Having got dressed, he slowly went downstairs.
Having finished their training, they will be fully qualified doctors.
Having been made redundant, she started looking for a new job.

Participle clauses after conjunctions and prepositions

It is also common for participle clauses, especially with -ing, to follow conjunctions and prepositions such as before, after, instead of, on, since, when, while and in spite of.

Before cooking, you should wash your hands.
Instead of complaining about it, they should try doing something positive.
On arriving at the hotel, he went to get changed.
While packing her things, she thought about the last two years.
In spite of having read the instructions twice, I still couldn't understand how to use it.

GRAMMAR: 1A have auxiliary or main verb? worksheet

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Liveworksheets transforms your traditional printable worksheets into self-correcting interactive exercises that the students can do online and send to the teacher.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
have as a main verb

When we use have as a main verb, it works as any other verb. We need an auxiliary verb, e.g. do, to make questions and negatives and we don't normally use its contracted form.

have meaning 'possess' or 'suffer' (from pain, illness, etc.)

We use have to talk about possession. We need the verb do to make questions and negatives. The past form is had and it's a stative verb, so it CANNOT be used in progressive forms.

have to for obligation

Have to is used to express obligation; usually to talk about obligation coming from others: rules, regulations, etc. In this case, have is also a stative verb.

We need do or another auxiliary verb to make questions and negatives.

The negative form of have to is used to talk about lack of necessity (NOT about prohibition)

have something done

When we have something done, it means that we 'employ someone to do something for us'.

We can also use have something done when something bad happens to us.

Have here is a dynamic verb, so it can be used in progressive forms.

In informal speech, the it's common to use get instead of have.

have meaning 'take' (a shower, a drink, etc.), 'give' (a party), etc.

Have can have different meanings depending on the words that come after it. It can mean:

In all these cases have is a dynamic verb, so it can be used in continuous forms.

In all these cases have is a main verb, and we need do or did or another auxiliary to make questions and negatives.

have as an auxiliary verb

When have is used as an auxiliary verb, it normally has negative and interrogative forms and it can be contracted.

have got used for possession

In informal English, it is common to use have got instead of have to talk about possession. When expressing possession, the verb have is not an auxiliary verb when used on its own, but it is an auxiliary verb in have got.

The verb have got only exists in the present tense.

haven't for possession

In negative sentences sometimes we leave out got to express possession.

have got to for obligation

In informal English we can also use have got to express the idea of obligation. It is normally used to talk about specific obligations rather than general obligations.

simple and continuous and past perfect simple and continuous

We use have in the present perfect simple and continuous. These are verb tenses that we often use to express the idea of duration.

We also use have in the past perfect simple and continuous.

Future perfect simple and continuous

We use have in the future perfect simple for actions that will be completed at a certain time in the future.

We also use have in the future perfect simple to express the duration of a situation until certain time in the future.

We use the present perfect continuous with dynamic verbs to express the duration of a situation until certain time in the future.

Perfect or past infinitive: to have done

We use the verb have in the perfect infinitive to talk about things that happened in the past.

Perfect modal verbs: must have done, can't have done, etc.

We use the verb have to form the past modal verbs of deduction.

Must/mustn't, have to/don't have to - Form

Have to

Have to is NOT a modal verb. We need do/does/did to make negatives and questions in present and past.

We can use have to in all the verb forms (present, past and perfect tenses, gerund, to infinitive, etc.)

It is used to describe an obligation, a rule, something that is necessary.

Have got to

In spoken informal English, you can often use 've got to instead of have to.

Must

Must is a modal verb and it has a present form, which can be used to talk about the present or the future. The negative form is must not or mustn't and the question is must I, must you, etc.

It is used to describe something that the speaker thinks is necessary to do.

We can also use must to express strong advice.

Must/mustn't, have to/don't have to - Use

Must only has a present form, so for all other verb forms (past, future, perfect forms, infinitive, etc.) we need to use have to.

We normally use have to for questions. Questions with must are not common.

Regarding the meaning, sometimes there is little difference between have to and must.

But we normally use have to when there's an external obligation, and must when the obligation comes from the opinion of the speaker.

Mustn't or Don't have to?

Don't have to and mustn't have opposite meanings. We use don't have to when we don't need to do something, when there's no obligation; and we use mustn't to talk about prohibition, when there is obligation not to do something.

If you don't have to do something, it means that you can do it if you want, but you don't need to do it.

Can't/be not allowed to = mustn't

We can use can't or be not allowed to instead of mustn't.

You mustn't smoke in this area. = You are not allowed to/can't smoke in this area.

Children mustn't eat chewing gum. = Children can't/are not allowed to eat chewing gum.

Should, shouldn't

Should is used to give advice or an opinion about what we think is right or wrong.

I think schools shouldn't offer soft drinks to their students.

Should is not as strong as must or have to.

Ought to/ought not to = should/shouldn't

Ought to has the same meaning as should, although it is more formal and not as common.
