spontaneous way, as in everyday conversation and letters to
friends. See also formal
-ing form the form of a verb which ends in '-ing', e.g. 'coming', 'taking',
'sending', sometimes shown in this book as 'v-ing'.
When an -ing form is used as a noun, it is sometimes called a
'gerund': e.g. 'I like reading.' When an -ing form is used as a
vertr, it is sometimes called a present participle: 'I saw her talking
to Dr Edwards this morning.'

out tonight.' See also subordinate clause
main verb a verb like 'speak', 'take' or 'go' which can be used as the only
verb in a sentence: 'She speaks German and Russian.' 'He took
her to the airport.' A main verb is often preceded by one or more

modify (also 'qualify') A word is often used with one or more other words
which provide additional information about it or limit its meaning.

negative A verb is negative when it is used with not, never, rarely, etc:
'She never answers my questions.' A clause or sentence
containing a negative verb is also negative. Compare: He
wanted to go to bed.' (affirmative verb/sentence); 'He didn't want
to go to bed.' (negative verb/sentence)

words which are plural ('children'). Two words are said to 'agree
in number' when they are both singular or both plural. Compare:
The child was playing in the garden' (singular); The children
were playing in the garden' (plural).
object The object (also 'direct object') of a sentence is the person or
thing that is directly affected by the action of the verb: 'She
bought a packet of envelopes'; 'I'd already seen the film'. An
'indirect object* is usually the person or thing that receives the




Glossary 373
direct object: 'She sent my mother a postcard.' 'He gave her a
diamond ring.' 'We told them the news.'
participle See PAST PARTICIPLE, -ING FORM
passive When the subject of a sentence 'performs' the action expressed
by the verb, the verb and the sentence are said to be 'active':
'Someone has stolen my watch.' The government spends a lot
of money on cancer research.' Sometimes the subject of a
sentence does not perform the action expressed by the verb but
'receives' it: 'My watch has been stolen.' 'A lot of money is spent
on cancer research.' In these cases, the verb and the sentence
are said to be 'passive'.
past participle the verb form that is used to make the present perfect and past
perfect, and all passive structures: 'She's lost her address book.'
'I hadn't seen her before.' 'Have the letters been posted yet?'
past perfect the verb form that is made with had and the past participle: 'After
everyone had gone, we began to tidy up.' 'If I'd known your
address, I wouldVe come to see you.' See also progressive
past progressive See progressive
past tense The past tense of a regular verb ends in -ed and has the same
form as the past participle: '×××××d', 'thanked', 'opened'. The

progressive
person the contrast between words which refer to ourselves (e.g. I, we =
'first person'), words which refer to the person we are talking to
(e.g. you = 'second person'), and words which refer to someone
or something else (e.g. he, she, Mrs Robinson, the apple trees =
'third person').
phrase 1 a group of words whose main word is a noun ('many people'),
main verb ('has been written'), adjective ('quite difficult') or
adverb ('fairly soon'), or which begins with a preposition: ('at six
o'clock', 'in the garden', 'for political reasons')
two or more words which are often used together: 'have a bath',
'make a mistake', It is obvious that' See also fixed phrase
plural See number
plural noun a noun which is always plural and does not have a singular form,
e.g. trousers, scissors, goods, surroundings
possessive A possessive form or meaning is one which expresses
ownership or close connection: 'Is this your handbag?' 'Have you
met her husband?' 'It's Bob's birthday tomorrow.' 'We had lunch
at Rosemary's.'
preparatory Instead of using a clause as the subject of a sentence, it is often
subject more natural to begin the sentence with it and put the clause
later: 'It's amazing that nobody was injured.' 'It will be good to
see you all again.' When used in this way, it is called a
preparatory subject.
preposition a word like at, from, for, during, into, in spite of which is used
before a noun, pronoun, etc: 'We went to the airport in a taxi.'

relative clause a descriptive clause usually beginning with that, who, which,
whose or whom. An 'identifying' relative clause answers the
question 'which?' and identifies or defines the preceding noun:
The man who was carrying a torch showed us to our seats.' A
'non-identifying' relative clause simply adds further information
about the preceding noun: The man, who was carrying a torch,
showed us to our seats.'

clause. See also relative clause

Hi, this is an important topic indeed. I read all of the usually misspelled words, and I think English teachers should draw their pupils' attention to these common mistakes from an early age, because people grow up making the same mistakes, and that makes learning a little bit harder. I need to be honest with you and say that the misspelled words' part wasn't well arranged and that's why the reader should be careful while reading in order to avoid mixing between the misspelled and the right-spelled words.

I haven't read the rest of the topic, but I'll have to because it will certainly help me study English before exams.

Thank you
