adjectives and adverbs
Definition - Adjectives are words that describe nouns or pronouns. They may come before the word they describe (That is a cute puppy.) or they may follow the word they describe (That puppy is cute.). Definition - Adverbs are words that modify everything but nouns and pronouns. They modify adjectives, verbs, and other adverbs. A word is an adverb if it answers how, when, or where. The only adverbs that cause grammatical problems are those that answer the question how, so focus on these. Examples: He speaks slowly. Answers the question how. He speaks very slowly. Answers the question how slowly.
Rule 1. Generally, if a word answers the question how, it is an adverb. If it can have an-ly added to it, place it there. Examples: She thinks slow/slowly. She thinks how? slowly. She is a slow/slowly thinker. Slow does not answer how, so no -ly is attached. Slow is an adjective here. She thinks fast/fastly. Fast answers the question how, so it is an adverb. But fast never has an -ly attached to it. We performed bad/badly. Badly describes how we performed.
Rule 2. A special -ly rule applies when four of the senses - taste, smell, look, feel - are the verbs. Do not ask if these senses answer the question how to determine if-ly should be attached. Instead, ask if the sense verb is being used actively. If so, use the -ly. Examples: Roses smell sweet/sweetly. Do the roses actively smell with noses? No, so no -ly. The woman looked angry/angrily. Did the woman actively look with eyes or are we describing her appearance? We are only describing appearance, so no -ly. The woman looked angry/angrily at the paint splotches. Here the woman did actively look with eyes, so the -ly is added. She feels bad/badly about the news. She is not feeling with fingers, so no -ly.
Good vs. Well Rule 3. The word good is an adjective, while well is an adverb. Examples: You did a good job. Good describes the job. You did the job well. Well answers how. You smell good today. Describes your odor, not how you smell with your nose, so follow with the adjective. You smell well for someone with a cold. You are actively smelling with a nose here, so follow with the adverb.
Rule 4. When referring to health, use well rather than good. Examples: I do not feel well. You do not look well today. NOTE: You may use good with feel when you are not referring to health. Example: I feel good about my decision to learn Spanish.
Rule 5. A common error in using adjectives and adverbs arises from using the wrong form for comparison. For instance, to describe one thing we would say poor, as in, "She is poor." To compare two things, we should say poorer, as in, "She is the poorer of the two women." To compare more than two things, we should say poorest, as in, "She is the poorest of them all." Examples: One Two Three or More sweet sweeter sweetest bad worse worst efficient* more efficient* most efficient* *Usually with words of three or more syllables, don't add -er or -est. Use more or most in front of the words.
Rule 6. Never drop the -ly from an adverb when using the comparison form. Correct: She spoke quickly. She spoke more quickly than he did. Incorrect: She spoke quicker than he did. Correct: Talk quietly. Talk more quietly. Incorrect: Talk quieter.
Rule 7. When this, that, these, and those are followed by nouns, they are adjectives. When they appear without a noun following them, they are pronouns. Examples: This house is for sale. This is an adjective here. This is for sale. This is a pronoun here.
Rule 8. This and that are singular, whether they are being used as adjectives or as pronouns. This points to something nearby while that points to something "over there." Examples: This dog is mine. That dog is hers. This is mine. That is hers.
Rule 9. These and those are plural, whether they are being used as adjectives or as pronouns. These points to something nearby while those points to something "over there." Examples: These babies have been smiling for a long time. These are mine. Those babies have been crying for hours. Those are yours.
Rule 10. Use than to show comparison. Use then to answer the question when. Examples: I would rather go skiing than rock climbing. First we went skiing; then we went rock climbing.
A BRIEF EXPLANATION OF CONJUNCTIONS A conjunction is a word that links words, phrases, or clauses. There are three types of conjunctions: coordinating conjunctions, correlative conjunctions, and subordinating conjunctions. Coordinating conjunctions may join single words, or they may join groups of words, but they must always join similar elements: e.g. subject+subject, verb phrase+verb phrase, sentence+sentence. When a coordinating conjunction is used to join elements, the element becomes a compound element. Correlative conjunctions also connect sentence elements of the same kind: however, unlike coordinating conjunctions, correlative conjunctions are always used in pairs. Subordinating conjunctions, the largest class of conjunctions, connect subordinate clauses to a main clause. These conjunctions are adverbs used as conjunctions. The following tables show examples of the various types of conjunctions and some sample sentences using the conjunctions. Since coordinating conjunctions and correlative conjunctions are closed sets of words, all are included in the list. Subordinating conjunctions are a larger class of words; therefore, only a few of the more common ones are included in this list.
COORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS
F A N B O Y S for and nor but or yet so
An easy way to remember these six conjunctions is to think of the word FANBOYS. Each of the letters in this somewhat unlikely word is the first letter of one of the coordinating conjunctions. Remember, when using a conjunction to join two sentences, use a comma before the conjunction. ________________________________________ EXAMPLES AND SENTENCES COORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS
CONJUNCTION WHAT IS LINKED SAMPLE SENTENCES and noun phrase+noun phrase We have tickets for the symphony and the opera. but sentence+sentence The orchestra rehearses on Tuesday, but the chorus rehearses on Wednesday. or verb+verb Have you seen or heard the opera by Scott Joplin? so sentence+sentence I wanted to sit in the front of the balcony, so I ordered my tickets early.
CORRELATIVE CONJUNCTIONS
both...and not only...but also either...or neither...nor whether...or
Remember, correlative conjunctions are always used in pairs. They join similar elements.When joining singular and plural subjects, the subject closest to the verb determines whether the verb is singular or plural.
________________________________________ EXAMPLES AND SENTENCES CORRELATIVE CONJUNCTIONS
CONJUNCTIONS WHAT IS LINKED SAMPLE SENTENCE both...and subject+subject Both my sister and my brother play the piano. either...or noun+noun Tonight's program is either Mozart or Beethoven. neither...nor subject+subject Neither the orchestra nor the chorus was able to overcome the terrible acoustics in the church not only...but also sentence+sentence Not only does Sue raise money for the symphony, but she also ushers at all of their concerts.
SUBORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS
TIME CAUSE + EFFECT OPPOSITION CONDITION after because although if before since though unless when now that even though only if while as whereas whether or not since in order that while even if until so in case (that)
Subordinating conjunctions, (subordinators) are most important in creating subordinating clauses. These adverbs that act like conjunctions are placed at the front of the clause. The adverbial clause can come either before or after the main clause. Subordinators are usually a single word, but there are also a number of multi-word subordinators that function like a single subordinating conjunction. They can be classified according to their use in regard to time, cause and effect, opposition, or condition. Remember, put a comma at the end of the adverbial phrase when it precedes the main clause.
________________________________________ EXAMPLES AND SENTENCES SUBORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS
CONJUNCTION SAMPLE SENTENCE after We are going out to eat after we finish taking the test. since Since we have lived in Atlanta, we have gone to every exhibit at the High Musuem. while While I was waiting in line for the Matisse Exhibit, I ate my lunch. although Although the line was long and the wait over two hours, the exhibit was well worth it even if Even if you have already bought your ticket, you will still need to wait in line. because I love Matisse's works because he uses color so brilliantly.
Rules for Irregular Plural Formation of Nouns
The majority of nouns in English spell their plural by simply adding a final -s. Nouns that are noncount or abstract (e.g., cheese, sugar, honesty, intelligence) generally take a singular verb, but in some instances can be plural, in which case they follow the rules for plural based on their spelling. Also, there are some categories of words which are only plural, even though their spelling does not reflect this. They are included in a list at the end of this page. For irregular count nouns and nouns that have been borrowed from other languages, the rules are as follows:
Variations of the final -s rule: Nouns that end with -s, -z, -x, -sh, -ch Add -es glass/glasses, buzz/buzzes, box/boxes, bush/bushes, switch/switches
Nouns that end in -o Add -es potato/potatoes, echo/echoes, hero/heroes exceptions: studio/studios, piano/pianos, kangaroo/kangaroos, zoo/zoos either: buffalo/buffalo(e)s, cargo/cargo(e)s, motto/motto(e)s, volcano/volcano(e)s
Nouns that end in a consonant + -y Change -y to -i and add -es baby/babies, spy/spies, poppy/poppies
Nouns that end in -f, or -fe Change the -f to -v and add -es
shelf/shelves, wolf/wolves, knife/knives, wife/wives
Nouns adopted from other languages: Singular ends in -is Plural ends in -es analysis/analyses, basis/bases
Singular ends in -um Plural ends in -a datum/data, curriculum/curricula
Singular ends in -on Plural ends in -a criterion/criteria, phenomenon/phenomena
Singular ends in -a Plural ends in -ae formula/formulae, antenna/antennae
Singular ends in -ex or -ix Plural ends in -ices appendix/appendices, index/indices
Singular ends in -us Plural ends in -i focus/foci, stimulus/stimuli
Singular ends in -us Plural ends in -a corpus/corpora, genus/genera
Singular ends in -eau Plural ends in -eaux bureau/bureaux, beau/beaux
Nouns that have only a plural form and so take a plural verb Things that come in pairs Tools: glasses, scissors, binoculars, forceps, tongs, tweezers Clothes: jeans, pants, pajamas, shorts, trousers
Nouns that end in -s but have no singular (aggregate nouns) accommodations, amends, archives, arms (weapons), bowels, intestines, brains (intellect), clothes, communications, congratulations, contents, stairs, thanks, goods
Nouns that are plural but do not end in -s people, police, cattle, people
who and whom
Rule. Use the he/him method to decide which word is correct. he = who him = whom Examples: Who/Whom wrote the letter? He wrote the letter. Therefore, who is correct. For who/whom should I vote? Should I vote for him? Therefore, whom is correct. We all know who/whom pulled that prank. This sentence contains two clauses: We all know andwho/whom pulled that prank. We are interested in the second clause because it contains the who/whom. He pulled that prank. Therefore, who is correct. (Are you starting to sound like a hooting owl yet?) We want to know on who/whom the prank was pulled. This sentence contains two clauses: We want to know and the prank was pulled on who/whom. Again, we are interested in the second clause because it contains the who/whom. The prank was pulled on him. Therefore, whom is correct. | |
