Singulars and Plurals
Have you ever ridden a horse over some stony ground? It’s slow, meticulous work. In the T4E model the ‘stones’ are explained in detail as well as how you should go about dealing with them. Is it the police ‘is’ or ‘are’; athletics ‘is’ or ‘are’; half of the sandwiches ‘is’ or ‘are’? Singulars and Plurals can be devastating and detrimental to any piece of literary work when used wrongly, no matter how ingeniously it is written. See for yourself in the T4E model how to work your horse around these ‘singular or plural’ obstacles…
In the e-book T4E, you will find a solution to an age-old problem: teaching or studying tenses effectively. Tenses do not only comprise of the names of the tenses past, perfect and future - it entail how to change a sentence into a question or negative; which question tag to add to a sentence; to change a sentence into a passive and active voice; how to report what someone else had said - reported speech; finally how to express the probability for something to happen - 'if sentences'.
A master of tenses will correctly combine the verbs, auxiliary verbs (helping verbs) and time words, thus providing the needed context.
