As you all know, a word is considered the most important part in a sentence. A word requires only one word to communicate certain ideas. For example: Come, Sit, Talk, Go, See and Stay an action, event or state of being. But more often we need a compound word to communicate some ideas. The word compound word was first used in Grattan and Gurrey’s 1925 edition of Our Language. (Wikipedia) states something about the subject of a given sentence and communicates the actions, events or states of an entity. Usually w *
Helping Word
A compound word includes a main word and one or more auxiliary or helping words. The auxiliary verb does not express action. Instead, it joins the word or words of the predicate to the object. Wikipedia calls the compound word a “complex predicate” because it is the critical element of the predicate sentence. Some forms will be a combination of words of a more common form;
am, are, is, was, were
A common auxiliary word
There are some other words that make a mere bond. For example:
see, feel, look, be seen, smell and taste.
These can be used for verbs or conjunctions or actions. Even if you replace them with are, is, was and were, they can be used as a main verb and an auxiliary verb.
1) To see
a) Giri appears before the judgment (action verb)
b) Giri appears hesitating or Giri is hesitating (verb bond)
2) Feel
a) Giri feels the heat (verb to act)
b) Giri feels curious or Giri is curious (verb conjunction)
3) see
a) Giri looking beautiful (action verb)
b) Giri looks fresh or Giri is fresh (verb conjunction)
4) See
a) Giri seen knowing (action verb)
b) Giri is balanced or Giri is balanced (verb conjunction)
5) odor
a) Giri smells polluted air (action word)
b) Food smells fresh or Food is fresh (verb conjunction)
6) Taste
a) Giri tastes bad (action verb)
b) Apple taste sweet or Apple is sweet (verb conjunction)
Tense Verbs
The main verb always expresses an action, and the auxiliary verb is specifically used with the verb to create many times that are available in English. See the following examples:
1) Giri had had seen this place before.
2) Giri has been visit this site to six months
3) Giri soon visits your site.
4) Never stop
In the above examples you can easily identify the compound word and the tenses expressed by them. In the first example, the main word visited and the only auxiliary word had at the same time this compound word forms the expression ‘he had visited.’ In the second main word to visit’ and two auxiliary words has been combined into one word another word ‘has >been to visit.‘ Note the compound word expression may visit‘ in the third example. In the fourth example, the word ‘never’ falls between the auxiliary verb ‘if’ and the main verb ‘stop’.
The word has certain main parts to express time. See an example of the word visit.
1) ‘seen’ (present tense);
2) ‘seen’ (past tense);
3) ‘will visit’ (future tense);
4) ‘Visitavit’ or ‘Visitavit’ (past participle); (always require the auxiliary verb “to have”, “to have” or “to have”.
5) ‘to visit’ (infinitive verb)
6) ‘to visit’ (present participle);
7) ‘He visited’ or ‘visited’ (present perfect) (expresses an action that started sometime in the past and has now ended);
8) ‘Visisse’ (past perfect) (expresses an action that started and ended in the past)
9) ‘visited’ or ‘visited’ (future perfect) (expresses an action that began in the past and will end at a certain time in the future)
Phrasal Verb
A phrasal verb is a complex word consisting of a combination;
1) verb and preposition (prepositional verbs), Example: to search
2) a verb and an adverb (of adverbial verbs), such as: caleo, song, foul mouth
3) A word with an adverb and a preposition.
An adverb or a preposition that follows a verb is usually called a particle. You may know that a particle can change the meaning of a phrasal verb. You will find a different meaning of a phrasal verb that is completely different from the meaning of the original verb. For example: consider the meanings of the word ‘face’ and prepositional phrases
1) to look = Take care
2) Look back = think about the past
3) look in = Have a low opinion off
4) Search = search
5) To wait = wait or anticipate something interesting
6) Look = make a quick visit
7) Look on = Visit briefly if everything is okay
8) Look = Investigate
9) See something like a crime without help
10) See as = See, pay attention
11) See = See
12) Look above = Look
13) Look around = Look at the house
14) Look to = Wait, hope
15) lift = increase
16) Look at =
17) See as = See, pay attention
The page “Latin to use” reports about 2,621 present Phrasal English words (also multi-word words) with definitions and examples. If you have a question about phrasal verbs, ask us about it in the English Phrasal Verbs Forum.
The Oxford Latin Grammar recognizes seven types of prepositional or phrasal verbs in English:
1) Intransitive Phrasal Words: Example get = to understand
a) After Giri class attendees started to take (algorithm)
2) Phrasal transitive verb: example to experience = to find
a) After attending class Giri began to find bugs
3) Mono-transitive Prepositional Verbs (inseparable): for example to go around = to sneak around
a) Giri always goes around system (Correct)
b) Giri always tior reason around reason (not correct)
4) Doubly transitive prepositional verbs (separable): example add = add
a) Giri added entirely on the computer (Right)
b) Giri added it up to the computer (Not Correct)
5) Prepositional Verbs to Copulate. The English copula is considered a special type of word. It serves as a conjunction between the subject of the given sentence and some determination. The best example of a conjunction is the verb esse, which is most often used when the subject of a sentence is combined with a predicate – the part of the sentence that modifies the subject. Some examples of this use of being are given by ‘Wisegeek’:
a) Can you ever be enough?
b) Home Over the hill
6) Phrasal-monotransitive verbs – example. respect = to respect, admire someone
a) Giri looks up to his father
7 For example, double phrasal-prepositional transitive words –. put [something] to [someone] = explain
a) Giri doesn’t score many, but we can put that up toinexperience
