The verb “to do” (hacer) can be used as an action verb and also as an auxiliary verb (or helping verb). In this
case. All forms (do, does and did) are used together whit another verb in its base form to create negative
sentences, questions, or for adding emphasis. When used as auxiliary, the “to do” verb is not translated

Present tense (do / does)

In present tense do and does are used

AUXILIARY DO AND DOES IN PRESENT TENSE

 Contraction: doesn’t (does not).

Past tense (Did) the simple past with regular or irregular verbs indicates an action completed or finished in the
past

Simple past, irregular verbs


Most verbs in English form their various tense consistently: add “ed” to the base of a verb to create the simple
past: the walked. There are, however, a number of called irregular verbs whose various forms must be
memorize because they remain or change depending on tense. Here is a list of some of them

Comparative and superlative forms

Adjectives can compare two things or more than two things. When we make these comparisons, we use
comparative and superlative forms of adjectives

Comparative. One way to describe nouns (people, objects, animals, etc.) is by comparing them to something
else. When comparing two things, you are likely to use adjectives like smaller, bigger, taller, more interesting,
and less expensive. Notice the “er” ending, and

Superlative. When comparing more than two things, you will likely use words and phrases like smallest,
biggest, tallest, most interesting, and least interesting. Notice the “est” ending and the words most and least
Comparative and superlative
rule adjective comparative Superlative
When the adjective is one syllable, you just add cheap Cheaper than The cheapest
“er” for comparative or “est” for superlative (mas barato) (el mas barato)
When the adjective ends in “y”, you change it to “I” Pretty PRETTIER THAN The prettiest
before adding “er” for comparative or “est” for (MAS BONITO QUE) (el mas bonito)
superlative
When the adjective ends in vowel + consonant, you Big Bigger than The biggest than
double the consonant before adding “er” for (mas grande que) (el mas grande)
comparative or “est” for superlative.
when the adjective is two or more syllables, yo use intelligent More intelligent than The most intelligent
more / less for comparative or most / ieast for (mas inteligente que) (el mas inteligente)
superlative Less intelligent than The least intelligent
(menos inteligente que) (el menos inteligente)

Irregular adjectives

It’s important to note that there are irregular adjectives (and adverbs) tat you have to memorize because they
don’t follow the rules above (table 8)

Comparative and superlative, irregular adjectives


adjective comparative superlative
Good Better than The best
(major que) (el major)
Bad Worse than The wort
(peor que) (el peor)
Far Further than / farther than The furthest / the farthest
(mas lejos que) (el mas lejos o el mas lejano)
little Less than The least
(menos que) (lo menos)

Regular plural forms (nouns)


Most singular nouns are made ´plural by simply putting an “s” at the end. there are many different rules
regarding on what letter a noun ends in. irregular nouns do not follow plural noun rules, so they must be
memorized or looked up in the dictionary.

Regular plural forms


rules examples
Add -s after words ending in consonant and “e” Nose – noses, cheek - cheeks
Add “es” after words endings in “s”, “ss”, “x”, “sh”, “ch”, “z” Glass – glasses, wish – wishes
and “o” Tomato – tomatoes, box – boxes
Buzz – buzzes, beach – beaches
Bush - bushes
Change the “y” to “I” and “es” if there is a consonant before City – cities, puppy – puppies
the “y” Toy – toys
Add “s” after the “y” if there is a vowel before it change “f” or Calf – calves, wife – wives
“fe” to “y” and add “es”

Irregular plural forms

Man – men, woman – women, louse – lice, bacterium -bacteria, goose – geese, child – children, foot – feet,
tooth – teeth, mouse – mice,
These irregular plural nouns need to be memorized because there is no rule to follow

Always plural nouns

Scissors, trousers, pants, tongs, binoculars, jeans, shoes, earrings, glasses are always in plural.
Deer, sheep and fish are always the same in singular and plural form

Foreign plural forms


A few nouns of Greek or Latin origin retain their original plurals: analysis – analyses, basis – bases, crisis –
crises, datum – data, curriculum – curricula.

Expressions of time

There are many words and expressions to refer to time. You can use these to sequence events and to make
stories and anecdotes more interesting
Expressions of time

expressions periods of time

Uncountable nouns are for the things we cannot count with numbers. They may be the names for abstract
ideas or qualities or for physical objects that are too small or too amorphous to be counted (liquids, powders,
gases, etc.) uncountable nouns are used with a singular verb. They usually do not have a plural form

Countable nouns

Countable nouns are for things we can count using numbers. They have a singular and a plural form. The
singular form can use the determiner “a” or “an”. If you want to ask about the quantity of a countable noun,
you ask “how many?” combined with the plural countable noun

Subject and pronouns are those pronouns that perform the action a sentence. They are I, you, he, she, it, we
and they. Any noun performing the main action in the sentence, like these pronouns, is a subject English
grammar requires that the subject come before the verb in a sentence (except in questions). Remember that
subject nouns, absolutely, always are actors in sentence. If action is implied, you should use subject nouns.

Object pronouns are those pronouns that receive the action in a sentence. They are me, you, him, her, us and
them. Any noun receiving an action in the sentence, like these pronouns, is an object. An object pronoun can
also be used after prepositions, i.e. “I will go with him”. With few exceptions, English grammar requires that
objects follow the verb in a sentence. Remember that object nouns always are the recipients in sentences. If an
action is happening to a noun, you should use object nouns

Subject and object nouns

Singular I Me
You You
He Him
She Her
it It
plural We Us
You You
they Them

Adverbs of frequency

Adverbs of frequency are adverbs of time that answer the question “how frequently?” (¿que tan frecuente?) or

Future tense (will + verb)


Will functions as an auxiliary to the main verb; this means that, it is not translated but gives the future sense to
the verb. The main verb always is on present tense.

Examples:
 I write a song (yo escribo una canción) --- i Will write a song (yo escribire una canción)
 She runs the marathon (ella corre el maraton) --- she will run the marathon ( ella correra el maraton)

Note that on second sentence the “s” is not added to the verb due to third person singular pronoun. In present
tense, the third person singular (he, she and it) an “s” is added to the main verb
