This is an excellent lesson. Thank you for including the link to your handout. It's so helpful. You are reaching a lot of students through these videos. 🙂
Respected Ma'am, Being unarguably the finest mind in the field of English grammar, you are earnestly entreated with folded hands to enlighten me a tad bit as to which of the following options would be grammatically correct -Question -He believed that I did it (Transform this Complex sentence into a Simple Sentence).Ma,am, my probable answers-(A)He believed me to do it (B)He believed me to have done it (C)I was believed to have done it (D)He believed it to have been done by me (E)It was believed to have been done (F)He believed in my having done it.
The videos are so great! I chose watching 5 or some lessons. Each lesson helped me clear a few of my old puzzles. And you explanation is so clear and smooth. Thank you for making these amazing lessons.
Hi Jamie, Your tutorials are very beneficial and unique in nature. I really enjoy it. You forgot to attach the file containing the list of verbs that take gerund or infinitive. Kindly relink this file so we can access it.
Good evening Professor, I was wondering if you might know a trick or a rule for figuring out whether to start a sentence with an infinitive or a gerund that carries out the action of noun. For example: Smoking is dangerous To smoke is dangerous Traveling is great To travel is great Shall there be a rule about whether to use one or the other or both? I did not find anything in the books! Thank you kindly and please accept my deepest apologies for disturbing you. I pay my respects to you. Andrea
If the stars fall down on me And the sun refused to shine Then may the shackles be undone May all the old words cease to rhyme If the sky turned into stone It will matter not at all For there is no heaven in the sky Hell does not wait for our downfall Let the voice of reason shine Let the pious vanish for all time God's face is hidden, all unseen You can't ask Him what it all means He was never on your side God was never on your side Let right or wrong alone decide God was never on your side See ten thousand ministries See the holy, righteous dogs They claim to heal, but all they do is steal Abuse your faith, cheat, and rob If God is wise, why is He still When these false prophets call Him friend? Why is He silent? Is He blind? Are we abandoned in the end? Let the sword of reason shine Let us be free of prayer and shrine God's face is hidden, turned away He never has a word to say He was never on your side God was never on your side Let right or wrong alone decide God was never on your side No, no, no! He was never on your side God was never on your side Never, never, never, never Never on your side Never on your side God was never on your side Never on your side
hi teacher .when we use 'TO' it also be a prepotition.so when we making a infinitive using "TO" it automatically turn into a prepotition which can also be used a gerunds. ex.. i cant wait runing or i cant wait TO runing. am i right.?Thank you
Could you please tell me in the example of" I'm looking forward to seeing you". Where we can use see + ing form. Because we use seeing very less and may be for another purpose.
Dear Prof, It's been an utterly splendid lesson. I was wondering if I might dare to ask you a question ? Where can one find your verb list ? Thank you. A
Dear Prof, Might I trouble you for a question ? When does one has to use an infinitive or a gerund as a subject of a sentence? and when one can use both interchangeably? Any tricks ? Any rules? Any lesson about that topic ? Thank you kindly. A
