In a sentence or text you have to change the form of a word, e.g. from a noun to an adjective, or from a verb to a noun. For example:
The _____ was very nervous. (sing)
You have to complete the sentence with the person noun ( singer). You change the verb ( sing) into the person noun ( singer).

Look at the word you have to change. Which words do you know that are in the same word family?

The beginning of the word is often the same and the end of the word changes.

What form is the new word? A verb? A noun? An adjective? An adverb?

Nouns often end: -ment, -ion, -ness, -ity.

People nouns often end: -er, -or, -ist, -ian.

Adjectives often end: -able, -ible, -ive, -al, -ic, -ed, -ing.

Some verbs end: -ise, -ate, -en.

Adverbs often end: -ly.

Is the new word negative? If so, you may need a prefix, e.g. un- (unhappy), im- (impolite), in- (inexperienced), dis- (dishonest), etc.

If you don't know the new word, guess. You may be right!

Check your answers carefully when you finish.

Many verbs in English are followed by the infinitive with to. Some of these verbs take the pattern:

Others verbs take the pattern:

Two very common verbs - and let - are followed by the infinitive without to. They take the pattern:

verb + to + infinitive

Some verbs are followed by the infinitive with to:

Common verbs with this pattern are:

verbs of thinking and feeling:

verb + noun + to + infinitive

Some verbs are followed by a noun and the infinitive with to:

Common verbs with this pattern are:

* Note that warn is normally used with not:
The police warned everyone not to drive too fast.

verbs of wanting and liking:

Many of the verbs above are sometimes followed by a passive infinitive (to be + past participle):

I expected to be met when I arrived at the station.
Theywanted to be told if anything happened.
I don't like driving myself. Iprefer to be driven.
Level: intermediate
make and let

When it is used with an auxiliary or a modal verb, dare can be followed by the i nfinitive with or without to:

But when there is no auxiliary or modal, dare is followed by the infinitive without to:

Grammar test 1

'in spite of', 'despite', 'although', 'even though' and 'though': Grammar test 1

Read the explanation to learn more.

Grammar explanation

Although, even though, in spite of and despite are all used to link two contrasting ideas or show that one fact makes the other fact surprising. They can all be used at the beginning or in the middle of the sentence.

Despite the rain, we enjoyed the festival.
We enjoyed the festival, despite the rain.

The main difference between although, even though, in spite of and despite is that they are used with different structures.

After in spite of and despite, we use a noun, gerund (- ing form of a verb) or a pronoun.

They never made much money, in spite of their success.
In spite of the pain in his leg, he completed the marathon.
Despite having a headache, I had a great birthday.
The train was cancelled. In spite of that, we arrived on time.

Note that it is common to use in spite of and despite with the expression the fact that, followed by a subject and verb.

In spite of the fact that he worked very hard, he didn't pass the exam.
Despite the fact that he worked very hard, he didn't pass the exam.

After although and even though, we use a subject and a verb. Even though is slightly stronger and more emphatic than although.

I enjoyed the course, although I would have liked more grammar practice.
Although we saw each other every day, we didn't really know each other.
Even though she spoke very quietly, he understood every word.
She didn't get the job, even though she had all the necessary qualifications.

Though can be used in the same way as although.

Though I wasn't keen on the film, I thought the music was beautiful.

Though can also go at the end of the second phrase. This way of expressing contrasting ideas is most common in spoken English.

We waited ages for our food. The waiter was really nice, though.

Second conditional - Grammar chart

If clause and main clause

We use if + past to talk about an imaginary present or future situation (although the verb is in past, the meaning is present or future). And we use would + infinitive to talk about the result or consequence of that imaginary situation.

Comma

When the ifclause comes first, we normally put a comma after it. We don't use a comma when the main clause comes first and the if clause comes second.

Would

Would/wouldn't is the same for all persons.

I/you/he/she/it/we/they would/wouldn't do that if it was possible.

Could

We can often use could + infinitive instead of would + infinitive in the main clause.

In the second conditional we can use if I/he/she/it were (more formal) instead of if I/he/she/it was (spoken English).

But we use were (NOT was) when we give advice with the expression if I were you.

First conditional vs second conditional

We use the first conditional to talk about possible future situations and we use the second conditional to talk about hypothetical or imaginary future situations.

If I don't have a meeting tomorrow morning, I'll have lunch with you. (It's possible. Maybe I don't have a meeting.)

If I didn't have a meeting tomorrow morning, I'd have lunch with you. (It's hypothetical. I have a meeting tomorrow, so I won't be able to have lunch with you.)

Try this exercise to test your grammar.

Read the explanation to learn more.

Grammar explanation

Do you know how to use third and mixed conditionals?

Third conditionals and mixed conditionals

Conditionals describe the result of a certain condition. The if clause tells you the condition ( If I hadn't been ill) and the main clause tells you the result ( I would have gone to the party). The order of the clauses does not change the meaning.

If I hadn't been ill, I would have gone to the party.
I would have gone to the party if I hadn't been ill.

Conditional sentences are often divided into different types.

Third conditional

The third conditional is used to imagine a different past. We imagine a change in a past situation and the different result of that change.

If I had understood the instructions properly, I would have passed the exam.
We wouldn't have got lost if my phone hadn't run out of battery.

In third conditional sentences, the structure is usually: If + past perfect >> would have + past participle.

Mixed conditionals

We can use mixed conditionals when we imagine a past change with a result in the present or a present change with a result in the past.

1. Past/Present

Here's a sentence imagining how a change in a past situation would have a result in the present.

If I hadn't got the job in Tokyo, I wouldn't be with my current partner.

So the structure is: If + past perfect >> would + infinitive.

2. Present/Past

Here's a sentence imagining how a different situation in the present would mean that the past was different as well.

It's really important. If it wasn't, I wouldn't have called you on your holiday.

And the structure is: If + past simple >> would have + past participle.

Mixed conditionals

Mixed conditionals are a combination of two types of conditional patterns, usually second and third conditionals. We can have a third conditional in the if clause and a second conditional in the main clause or a second conditional in the if clause and a third conditional in the main clause.

Grammar chart

Second and third conditionals

In a second conditional we use past in the if clause and would/might/could + infinitive in the main clause. It is used to talk about hypothetical situations happening in the present or future.

In a third conditional we use past perfect in the if clause and would/might/could + have + past participle in the main clause. It is used to talk about hypothetical situations happening in the past.

A mixed conditional is a combination of second and third conditionals.

Mixed third/second conditional

We use this combination to talk about a hypothetical condition happening in the past (third conditional) with a present result (second conditional). We use past perfect in the if clause and would/could/might + infinitive in the main clause.

Mixed second/third conditional

We use this combination to talk about a hypothetical condition happening in the present (second conditional) with a past result (third conditional). We use past in the if clause and would/could/might + have + past participle in the main clause.

Note that in this type of combination, the present condition also existed in the past, when the result in the main clause took place. Let's take a look, for example, at the first sentence:

If I were a man now would mean that I would also have been a man in the past, when I was not given the job. As I'm not a man now (which implies that I wasn't a man when I applied for the job either), I didn't get the job.
