Glad you liked it!

​@@thelearningdepotMadam,what is the difference? 1) I handed over my homework done to my teacher. 2) I handed over my homework being done to my teacher.

Thanks for liking

Thank you. Glad to help. 😊

You're welcome!

I’m so glad! 😊

You're most welcome. 😊

Glad it helped!

Yes, you can, but you don't always want to do it since it makes the sentence sound more formal, although grammatically correct. (And remove the comma: the boy should be careful crossing the street.) Thanks for watching!

@@thelearningdepot Thank you for the reply. Actually I asked this for formal writing. I hope you can elaborate on this in your forthcoming lessons, too.

The first version is correct and it’s how native speakers would say it. Removing the “that” is not necessarily a reduction. It’s an ellipsis.

@@thelearningdepot I see. And now I know about ellipsis. Thank you!

as far as I understand that when the direct object is in the beginning the word *that* can be omitted.

I wouldn't reduce it because "why I choose not to use it" is a relative adverb clause.

@@thelearningdepot I appreciate your comments and thank you for providing insights.

Yes, you are right. 😊

@@thelearningdepot Thank you teacher. So please edit the video. In the vido you said it's impossible to take it out, however, it can be omitted and the grammatical term for it is ellipsis. Thank you

@@mahdia4289 You don't take it out for a true reduction. However, it is often omitted as an ellipsis.

@@thelearningdepot Thank you teacher for the tip and helping me🤍🤍🤍

Additionally, I write lyrical poetry and find the need to bend the past tense for rhyming purposes, is this common or just a poor excuse or a form of literary flippancy? Warner Bros. is in a public quagmire, They had a surefire, they pushed to expire. Now Corp. Violence is their trademark, Until Johnny pardons their black mark. The verdict is in, there were no DV sins It was all a hoax, now WB needs to coax They stand to lose, so they must choose How to win him back, what will be their tack Maybe new measures, in lieu of treasures; Protect the guild, establish a shield. Or a seat in judgment, or fiscal torment, Better yet, some of all-- it's totally Depp's call. Let them wait, to learn their fate, Twist and turn, feel the money burn Demands for fairness and moral squareness. Change the charter, it's time to barter. We love Depp, so be adept, Think fast, to resolve the past. Get a vote, the public has spoke. Heal the misdeed, plant a new seed. Be creative, happily proactive, Woo the fans, with some outside plans. Show remorse and stay the course, On your knees, we await your pleas

@@edwardwalsh4454 Well, you have poetic license to bend and break all the rules for the sake of art, but the rules should be applied in formal settings.

I agree with you. It can be reduced to" The rules passed by the board take effect ....."
