English Grammar

Conditional sentences say what happens, or what would happen, in a situation. English has several types, from simple to harder ones.

English has 4 present tenses. Each one has a different job.

English has many past tenses. Past simple tells what happened. Past continuous tells what was happening around it. Past perfect tells what happened before that.

English does not have one future tense. It has many forms. You pick one for a guess, a plan, a decision, or a set time.

Modal verbs show what is possible, needed, sure, or allowed. English uses words like can, could, should, must, might, and may in many ways.

Reported speech means telling what someone said, but with different words. "I" can become "she". "Now" can become "then".

Passive voice moves the focus. It's about what happens, not who does it. You see it in news, writing, and how people talk. It's very common with the word "get".

These forms use past words to talk about wishes and things that are not real. People use them all the time. Small: "I wish you'd listen." Big: "I wish I had studied harder." Nice: "I'd rather you didn't."

How people talk about things from the past. "Used to" is the main form. "Would" and "be/get used to" are also common, and people often use them in different ways.
