1.1 Independent and Dependent Clauses Understanding the difference between independent and dependent clauses is important in understanding how to construct sentences and avoid fragments. This knowledge can also help in varying sentence length in writing, which makes all forms of writing better.

Before understanding the different types of clauses, it is important to understand what a clause is. A clause is a group of related that contains both a subject and a verb. On the other hand, if a group of related words does not contain a subject with an attached verb, it is simply a . An is a group of words that can stand on its own as a sentence: it has a subject, a verb, and is a complete thought.

Examples: • He ran. (Notice that while this sentence only contains two words, it is still a complete sentence because it contains a one word subject and a one word predicate that is also a complete thought.) • He ran fast. • I was late to work. • The paper does not specify which type of format it must be in. • The instructor spent the class period reviewing the difference between independent and dependent clauses.

A dependent clause is a group of words that also contains a subject and a verb, but it is not a complete thought. Because it is not a complete thought, a dependent clause cannot stand on its own as a sentence; it is dependent on being attached to an independent clause to form a sentence.

Examples: • Because I woke up late this morning… (what happened?) • When we arrived in class… (what occurred?) • If my neighbour does not pay his rent on time… (what will happen?)

Dependent clauses can often be identified by words called dependent markers, which are usually subordinating conjunctions. If a clause begins with one of these words, it is dependent and needs to be attached to an independent clause. (Common dependent markers: after, as, although, because, before, even though, if, once, rather than, since, that, though, unless, until, when, whenever, whereas, while, among others.)

Note: Just because an independent clause can stand on its own doesn’t mean it has to. For instance, one or more independent clauses can be added together to form a compound sentence, and independent clauses can be added to dependent clauses to form complex sentences.

3

1.2 Dependent Marker Word (DM) A dependent marker word is a word added to the beginning of an independent clause that makes it into a dependent clause. Example: When Jim studied in the Sweet Shop for his chemistry quiz, it was very noisy. (DM)

Some common dependent markers are: after, although, as, as if, because, before, even if, even though, if, in order to, since, though, unless, until, whatever, when, whenever, whether, and while.

1.2.1 Connecting dependent and independent clauses There are two types of words that can be used as connectors at the beginning of an independent clause: coordinating conjunctions and independent marker words. 1. Coordinating (CC) The seven coordinating conjunctions used as connecting words at the beginning of an independent clause are and, but, for, or, nor, so, and yet. When the second independent clause in a sentence begins with a coordinating conjunction, a is needed before the coordinating conjunction: Example: Jim studied in the Sweet Shop for his chemistry quiz, but it was hard to concentrate because of the noise. (CC) 2. Independent Marker Word (IM) An independent marker word is a connecting word used at the beginning of an independent clause. These words can always begin a sentence that can stand alone. When the second independent clause in a sentence has an independent marker word, a semicolon is needed before the independent marker word. Example: Jim studied in the Sweet Shop for his chemistry quiz; however, it was hard to concentrate because of the noise. (IM) Some common independent markers are: also, consequently, furthermore, however, moreover, nevertheless, and therefore.

1.2.2 Proper Punctuation Methods This table gives some examples of ways to combine independent and dependent clauses and shows how to punctuate them properly.

IC. IC. I went to the store. I didn't buy any bread.

IC; IC. I went to the store; I didn't buy any bread.

4

IC, CC IC. I went to the store, but I didn't buy any bread.

IC; IM, IC. I went to the store; however, I didn't buy any bread.

DC, IC. When I went to the store, I didn't buy any bread.

IC DC. I didn't buy any bread when I went to the store.

1.2.3 Some Common Errors to Avoid 1.2.3.1 Comma Splices A comma splice is the use of a comma between two independent clauses. You can usually fix the error by changing the comma to a period and therefore making the two clauses into two separate sentences, by changing the comma to a semicolon, or by making one clause dependent by inserting a dependent marker word in front of it. Incorrect: I like this class, it is very interesting. Correct: I like this class. It is very interesting. (or) I like this class; it is very interesting. (or) I like this class, and it is very interesting. (or) I like this class because it is very interesting. (or) Because it is very interesting, I like this class.

1.2.3.2 Fused Sentences Fused sentences happen when there are two independent clauses not separated by any form of punctuation. This error is also known as a run-on sentence. The error can sometimes be corrected by adding a period, semicolon, or colon to separate the two sentences. Incorrect: My professor is intelligent I've learned a lot from her. Correct: My professor is intelligent. I've learned a lot from her. (or) My professor is intelligent; I've learned a lot from her. (or) My professor is intelligent, and I've learned a lot from her. (or) My professor is intelligent; moreover, I've learned a lot from her.

1.2.3.3 Sentence Fragments Sentence fragments happen by treating a dependent clause or other incomplete thought as a complete sentence. You can usually fix this error by combining it with another sentence to make a complete thought or by removing the dependent marker. Incorrect: Because I forgot the exam was today. Correct: Because I forgot the exam was today, I didn't study. (or) I forgot the exam was today.

1.3 Practices on English Independent and Dependent Clause

5

Quick Refresher: A clause is a group of related words. A clause has both a subject and a predicate. There are two types of clauses. Independent Clause - An independent clause can stand alone as a sentence. Here is an example: We walk to school. This sentence expresses a complete thought and can stand alone. Dependent Clause - A dependent clause cannot stand alone as a sentence. Here is an example: when the cake is done baking. This clause does not express a complete thought and cannot stand alone.

1.3.1 Directions: Identify each of the clauses as independent or dependent. 1. when Mr. Jones yelled

Independent Dependent 2. I enjoy the opera

Independent Dependent 3. unless it comes today

Independent Dependent 4. although I lost the library book

Independent Dependent 5. they're going on a picnic

Independent Dependent 6. mom found it in the drawer

Independent Dependent 7. the fifth graders sang

Independent Dependent 8. when the movie is over

Independent Dependent 9. I decided to go along

Independent Dependent 10. the strength of the man might

Independent Dependent 11. we're planning to have a party

Independent Dependent 12. when I'm finished reading

Independent Dependent

6

1.3.2 Direction: Identifying Independent and Dependent Clauses. 1. An independent clause expresses a complete thought and can stand by itself as a complete sentence. a. true b. false

2. A simple sentence is a single _____ . 3. A dependent clause that begins a sentence must be followed by a _____ . 4. A dependent clause has a subject and a verb but does not _____ . 5. Before the bell rang This is an example of a(n) _____ a. independent clause b. dependent clause 6. Which of the following is a dependent clause? a. If the weather is still nice b. That's the most spectacular view of all c. You'll want to take pictures d. You will reach the city of Asheville later 7. Amelia Earhart attempted to fly around the world in 1937. This statement is a/an: a. independent clause b. dependent clause 8. What is the DEPENDENT CLAUSE in the following sentence? Although Bill was sick, he still went to work. a. Although b. he was still sick c. was sick d. Although Bill was sick 9. Identify the INDEPENDENT CLAUSE in the following sentence: Until you eat your supper, there will be no dessert for you! a. Until you eat your supper b. There will be no dessert for you c. Until you eat d. No dessert for you. 10. Identify the DEPENDENT clause in the following sentence. If I let a few days go by, I can usually calm myself down. a. If I let a few days go by b. I can usually calm myself down c. If I let d. Calm myself down

1.3.3 Direction: Determine whether the underlined word groups are dependent clauses, independent clauses, or not a clause. 1. Although it was raining, Maria went for a jog at Capitan Park 2. Brianna eats chocolate whenever she gets a poor grade in math 3. After the flood, the family moved into a temporary shelter. 4. While walking at the park, John saw a raccoon eating potato chips 5. Students enrolled in bachelor's and associate's degree programs must pass the Regents' Test as a graduation requirement. 6. Students fail to show up for the Regents' test must enrol in the Regents' remediation courses. 7. When you finish your homework, please take the dog for a walk. 8. After Juan completed the assignment, he swam laps at the gym 9. Christa left home at 4:00 a.m. since she had to drive to Atlanta for a meeting 10. Before completing the assignment, Evan decided to eat a quick lunch

2.1 Dependent Clause or Subordinate Clause Are you ready to learn about the subordinate clause? You can also call these dependent clauses. Let's start by talking about the definition of a clause. A clause is a group of words with a subject and a verb. Subjects tell us whom or what a sentence is about and verbs tell us what the subject is or does. Here are two clauses.

I sharpened my pencil. Whenever I sharpened my pencil

Both of those clauses have a subject (I) and a verb (sharpened). The top clause can stand alone as a complete idea, but the bottom clause cannot. The bottom clause is subordinate. Subordinate means that it can't stand alone. It needs to be connected to an independent clause in order to make sense. A subordinate clause is a group of words with a subject and a verb, which cannot stand alone. Here's the important thing to know about these guys. Are you ready?

* They act as single parts of speech. *

That was short and sweet. You'll want to remember that because it's important. They can act as adjectives, , or .

2.2 Types of Subordinate Clauses Dependent clauses act in certain ways. They can act in three different ways to be precise. 1. Adjective (Relative) Clause 2. Clause 3. Clause

We'll briefly go over each type of clause below.

2.2.1. Adjective Clauses (Relative Clauses) As you might guess, an adjective clause is a dependent clause that acts as an adjective. They are introduced by special words called relative or relative adverbs.

The woman who looked happy danced.

Who looked happy is a dependent adjective clause. It is a group of words with a subject (who) and a verb (looked), and the whole clause is functioning as an adjective modifying the noun woman, which is the subject of the independent clause.

10

Adjective clauses (or relative clauses) are a type of subordinate clause that act as adjectives. The whole clause does the job of an adjective. Take a look at this sentence:

The happy woman danced across the street.

Happy is an adjective modifying the noun woman. It is telling us which woman. Do you remember that which one is one of the adjective questions? Which woman? The happy woman. Now, look at this sentence. The woman who looks happy danced across the street.

This time, a whole clause is modifying the noun woman! The clause is still telling us which woman. Which woman? The woman who looks happy. This clause is an adjective clause. It is a group of words with a subject and a verb, and it is acting as one part of speech - an adjective.

2.2.1.1 Relative Pronouns Can Introduce Them Most of the time, relative clauses are introduced by relative pronouns. who, whom, whose, that, which

11

Here are examples using these relative pronouns: • The person who made the mess needs to clean it. (modifying person) • The girl whom you teach is my sister. (modifying girl) • People whose cats shed need to vacuum often. (modifying people) • This is the house that Jack built. (modifying house) • The book which I had not read fell on my head. (modifying book)

Relative pronouns link the clause with the word that the clause is modifying. Did you notice that the noun that comes directly before the clause is the noun that the clause is modifying? Good. I'm glad that you saw that. :) The cool thing about relative pronouns is that they also act as the subject, , or some kind of modifier within the adjective clause. Let's use this sentence as an example.

This is the house that Jack built.

The independent clause is This is the house. The is that Jack built. Notice that both clauses have a subject and a verb. That is introducing the relative clause. It is linking the word house with the whole clause. That is also acting as the direct object within the clause.

Jack = subject built = verb that = direct object

Look at the sentence diagram, and it will help you see what I mean. You'll find more information and sentence diagrams on the relative pronouns page.

2.2.1.2 No Relative ? Sometimes the is missing from the relative clause. You can still have an adjective clause without the relative pronoun.

Here is an example of a sentence with the relative pronoun that. • The instrument that I love is the piano. The adjective clause is that I love.

12

Can you think of how you could express that same idea without the relative pronoun? • The instrument I love is the piano.

Now the adjective clause is just the words I love, but the word that is implied. It's as if the sentence says: • The instrument (that) I love is the piano.

Whenever words are implied in a sentence, it is called an elliptical. The technical name for a missing relative pronoun is an elliptical relative pronoun. If you want to diagram the sentence, diagram the implied relative pronoun in parenthesis.

2.2.1.3 Relative Adverbs While most of the time relative clauses are introduced by relative pronouns, sometimes they are introduced by relative adverbs (where, when, why). Here are some examples. Notice that the clause is still modifying a noun. • This is the park where we played. • Tuesday is the day when we have pizza for dinner. • Our teacher told us the reason why we study grammar.

2.2.2. Adverb Clauses An adverb clause is a dependent clause that acts as an adverb. These are introduced by special words called subordinating conjunctions.

I read because I love stories.

Because I love stories is a dependent adverb clause. It has a subject (I) and a verb (love), and the whole clause is functioning as one adverb modifying the verb read in the independent clause.

13

Elliptical clauses are types of clauses that have some implied words. Most of the time, they are adverb clauses. David is faster than his brother.

Than his brother is an elliptical clause. It's as if the clause says: David is faster than his brother (is) (fast).

Than his brother (is) (fast) is a dependent adverbial elliptical clause. It is a group of words with a subject (brother) and a verb (is), and the whole clause is acting as an adverb modifying the adjective faster in the independent clause.

2.2.2.1 Adverb Clauses Are Subordinate Clauses Adverb clauses are subordinate clauses that act as adverbs! The whole clause does the job of an adverb. Will you allow me to show you how a whole clause acts as an adverb? Great. I thought you would. Here we go. I walked today.

Today is an adverb modifying the verb walked. It is telling us when I walked. When did I walk? I walked today. Now look at this next sentence.

I walked before the sun went down.

This time, a whole clause is modifying the verb walked! Isn't that exciting? The clause is still telling us when I walked. When did I walk? I walked before the sun went down.

This clause is an adverbial clause. It is a group of words with a subject and a verb, and it is acting as one part of speech, an adverb.

14

2.2.2.2 Subordinating Conjunctions Adverbial clauses are introduced by special words called subordinating conjunctions. Subordinating conjunctions link adverb clauses with the word in the independent clause that the adverb clause is modifying. Did I lose you there? That sounded really complex. Sorry about that. Let's look at another example. My mom smiled when I made dinner.

The independent clause is My mom smiled. The adverbial clause is when I made dinner. When is a subordinating conjunction introducing the adverbial clause? It is linking the work smiled from the independent clause with the whole dependent adverbial clause.

Do you know what would make this even easier? Let's look at a sentence diagram so that you can really SEE what I'm talking about. In the following sentence diagram, you can see that the dependent adverbial clause (when I made dinner) is modifying the verb of the independent clause (smiled).You can also see that when the subordinating conjunction is. It is diagrammed on a slanted, dotted line from the independent clause to the dependent clause.

Other subordinating conjunctions include after, because, if, whenever, until and many more. You can see a more complete list of subordinating conjunctions here. Subordinating conjunctions are conjunctions that join dependent clauses to independent clauses.

I will eat broccoli after I eat this cookie.

There are many subordinating conjunctions, so keep in mind that this list does not include all of them! A after, although, as, as if, as long as, as much as, as soon as, as though B because, before, by the time E even if, even though I if, in order that, in case L lest O once, only if

15

P provided that S since, so that T than, that, though, till U unless, until W when, whenever, where, wherever, while

You can see that these connect dependent and independent clauses by looking at the sentence diagram. The subordinating conjunction goes on a dotted line between the two clauses.

2.2.2.3 They Can't Stand Alone Remember how I said that adverb clauses are a type of subordinate clause and subordinate clauses can't stand alone? Let me show you what I mean. Here are some examples of adverbial clauses. until I fall asleep whenever my teacher yells after I walk the dog

All of those groups of words are clauses. They each have a subject and a verb. But, none of them express a complete thought. In each of those examples, we are left wondering what is going on. Now, if we attach an independent clause before or after the adverb clause, we'll have a complete sentence that makes sense.

I listen to music until I fall asleep. Whenever my teacher yells, I know she's having a bad day. I will take out the trash after I walk the dog.

Adverbial clauses need to be attached to independent clauses in order to make a complete sentence.

2.2.2.4 The Adverb Questions Adverbial clauses answer the adverb questions. That means that the whole clause tell us these things...

16

• How? I walk faster than David walks. • When? I walk before the sun goes down. • Where? I walk wherever the trail is paved. • Why? I walk because it makes me feel good. • To what extent? I walk more now than I walked one month ago. • Under what condition? I walk if it's not raining.

Here's one more example diagram for you. It's a little complex, but I thought you might like to see it anyway!

When you are curious, you find lots of interesting things to do.

Can you identify the independent clause? How about the adverbial dependent clause and the subordinating conjunction?

2.2.3. Noun Clauses A noun clause is a dependent clause that acts as a noun. Sometimes, these are introduced by certain kinds of words called noun clause markers, and sometimes they don't have any introductory word at all.

Whatever you want is fine with me.

Whatever you want is a dependent noun clause is acting as the subject of the sentence. It is a group of words with a subject (you) and a verb (want), and it is functioning as a noun. It is performing the job of the subject.

Noun clauses are subordinate clauses that act as nouns. They can perform any of the noun jobs. We'll explore them acting as subjects, direct objects, objects of the preposition, and predicate nouns.

17

I'll show you what I mean. We'll go through each of those noun jobs and you'll see what it looks like to have a whole clause acting as a noun.

Quick Refresher A clause is a group of words with a subject and a verb. Subordinate clauses act as single parts of speech and are attached to independent clauses.

2.2.3.1 Acting as Subjects Subjects tell us whom or what a sentence is about, right? Right!

Candy is fine with me. Candy is the simple subject in that sentence. It is one word acting as the subject. Now, check this out.

Whatever you want is fine with me. Now there is a whole clause acting as the subject. Whatever you want is a noun clause acting as the subject of the sentence. We know that whatever you want is a clause because it has a subject (you) and a verb (want). We also know that it is a subordinate clause because it does not express a complete thought. Here is an example of how you would diagram a noun clause acting as the subject.

2.2.3.2 Acting as Direct Objects A noun can also be a direct object. Direct objects receive the action of the verb. They are only used with transitive active verbs.

Can you tell me the time? Time is the direct object in that sentence. It is one noun doing a noun job.

Can you tell me when it is time for dinner? When it is time for dinner is now acting as the direct object. The whole clause is performing one function.

18

Let's see if when it is time for dinner is really a noun clause. Does it have a subject and a verb? Yes. (it & is)Is it performing the job of a noun? Yes. It's the direct object of the verb tell. Is it a subordinate clause? Yes. It does not express a complete thought. Here is an example of how you would diagram a noun clause acting as the direct object.

2.2.3.3 Diagramming Quotations If you find yourself wondering how to diagram a direct quotation of someone's speech or writing, here's the answer! Many times the person's quotation is a complete sentence. For example, you might say...

Maria said, "I feel sleepy." I feel sleepy is a noun clause acting as the direct object of the verb said.

2.2.3.4 Acting as Objects of the Preposition As you might have guessed, an object of the preposition is another noun job. Read this page about prepositional if you need to brush up on prepositions. I asked about Tom. Tom is a noun acting as the object of the preposition.

I asked about why Tom ate those hot peppers. Why Tom ate those hot peppers is a clause acting as the object of the preposition. Tom is the subject of the clause, and ate is the verb, so we know it is a clause. It can't stand alone, so we know it is a subordinate clause.

19

2.2.3.5 Acting as Predicate Nouns We've come to the last noun job that we'll discuss here. It has been waiting patiently while you read about subjects, direct objects, and objects of the prepositions.

This last job is, of course, a predicate noun. If you want to sound smarter, you can also call these predicate nominatives.

Predicate nouns are the nouns that come after linking verbs. They rename the subject. Happiness is warm pie. Pie is the predicate noun. It is one noun performing a noun job.

Happiness is whatever just came out of the oven. Whatever just came out of the oven is a noun clause performing the job of predicate noun. It has a subject (whatever) and a verb (came), so we know it is a clause. It does not express a complete thought, so it's a subordinate clause!

2.3 Practices on Subordinate Clauses A subordinate clause, also known as a dependant clause, cannot stand by itself. By itself, a subordinate clause is a fragment. For example: As Joe put ice into his cup

You should join a subordinate clause to an independent clause to make it part of a sentence. For example: As Joe put ice into his cup, Maria talked about the paintings.

You can put the subordinate clause at the end of the sentence, too: Maria talked about the paintings as Joe put ice into his cup.

A sentence with an independent clause and a subordinate clause is called a complex sentence. The last two examples demonstrate how to punctuate complex sentences. If the subordinate clause comes before the independent clause, a comma follows it. If it comes after the independent clause, no comma separates the clauses.

2.3.1 Direction: Each of the following subordinate clauses is a fragment. Make a complete sentence by placing an independent clause you’ll come up with after the subordinate clause. Then write another sentence with the same clauses, but put the subordinate clause at the end. Be sure to use the right punctuation! Example: After I ate a salad Answer: After I ate a salad, I ordered dessert.

20

I ordered dessert after I ate a salad. 1. If I were rich 2. Since I didn’t see you at the party 3. Until Sally finds her textbook 4. When I finally save up enough money 5. While you were sleeping 6. Because I bought you a present 7. Although Bob can’t block 8. Before you feed the dog 9. Unless I hear from you 10. After it rains

2.3.2 Direction: In each sentence, underline the subordinate clause once and the independent clause twice. Then circle the simple subject and box the verb in each clause. Example: The dog that I like has been sold. The dog that I like has been sold. 1. After Bob shot the sheriff, he forgot to shoot the deputy. 2. Josephine won the election after she campaigned so hard. 3. The pillow that I had brought is under the table. 4. Blue, which I have seen on the walls of your school, is my favourite colour. 5. When it rains, it pours. 6. It pours when it rains. 7. The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain, if you understand me. 8. Although I should keep my mouth shut, I am going to speak. 9. I could have spent the time that I used to write my paper playing basketball! 10. The mayor, who was sworn in yesterday, promised better schools.

2.3.3 Directions: Write the subordinate or dependent clause in the following sentences. Next to each one, write whether it is an adjective clause, adverb clause or a noun clause. If an adjective or adverb clause, tell what word in the independent clause is modified by that clause. If a noun clause, write how it is used in the sentence...that is, whether it is the subject, direct object, object of preposition, indirect object or predicate noun. 1. Ancient Egyptians designed houses that were meant to be cool. 2. The architect who is my brother designed my home. 3. Before a proper foundation is designed, a soil test is done. 4. People who like tiny dogs have a choice of about fifteen kinds. 5. Whoever likes Shetland Sheepdogs will be happy with their choice. 6. Many people go to Chicago because there is always plenty to do. 7. Whenever I see an airplane, I want to travel. 8. Another question may be what the major issues are.

21

9. The skyline was spectacular as the sun set. 10. One group is made up of dogs that are bred as bird dogs.

2.3.4 Directions: In the following exercise, place an appropriate subordinating conjunction in front of one of the independent clauses in each sentence. Do not create a compound sentence with a coordinating conjunction. In this exercise, you should select the main idea for the independent clause and create a dependent clause for the subordinate idea. Keep in mind that when you place a subordinating conjunction in front of an independent clause, a dependant clause is formed that may require a comma. Remember the rules of punctuation when joining dependent clauses with independent clauses. 1. Algebra is offered only in the mornings. English is offered at night. 2. The course was excellent. Dr. Dawson taught it. 3. We could see very clearly last night. The moon was so bright. 4. It is cold outside. The joggers are wearing shorts. 5. Jonathan breaks out in a rash. Ragweed blooms in the backyard. 6. I knew you were coming. I would have cleaned the guest room. 7. I live just a few blocks away. I drive to school anyway. 8. The soldiers were dreadfully injured. They would lie on the battlefield without medical attention for an hour or a day. 9. Bob is a good mechanic. He is planning to open his own repair shop. 10. The dog barked all night.

3.1 English Elliptical Sentence Ellipsis means leaving something out. Elliptical sentence is a shorter form of sentence which some words have been omitted, but it retains the same meaning. It is used so that we can avoid unnecessary repeated words. It is noticeable that elliptical sentences are used quite common in some contexts as: 3.1.1 In normal conversation • A: Where are you going? B: To school. (= I am going to school.) • A: Ready? (= Are you ready?) B: Yes, I am. (= Yes, I am ready.)

3.1.2 In comparison • Phalla is taller than Phearom. (= Phalla is taller than Phearom is tall.) • The ads attracted younger than older people. (= The ads attracted younger than it attracted older people.)

3.1.3 In sentences joined by coordinating conjunctions • I have washed and ironed my clothes. (= I have washed my clothes, and I have ironed my clothes.) • Bora likes football, Phalla volleyball, and Sopheak basketball. (= Bora likes football, Phalla likes volleyball, and Sopheak likes basketball.) • Kolab has five dollars, and Sopheak three. (= Kolab has five dollars, and Sopheak has three dollars.)

3.1.4 In some dependent clauses • If you clean the house today, I will tomorrow. (= If you clean the house today, i will clean the house tomorrow.) • I will go to the party if you will. (= I will go to the party if you will go to the party.)

3.1.5 In reduced clauses • The song sung by Preap Sovath was so popular. (= The song which was sung by Preap Sovath was so popular.) • The man selling the shoes is my friend.

(= When he was studying, he tried hard.) • I visited the Bayon Temple after coming back from Battambang. (= I visited the Bayon Temple after I came back from Battambang.) • Though a bit nervous, she presented the products to the doctor very well. (= Though she was a bit nervous, she presented the products to the doctor very well.)

24

3.1.6 When used with "SO, TOO, EITHER, NEITHER" • My sister is tall, and so do my brothers. (= My sister is tall, and my brothers are tall, too.) • A: I was very sleepy last night. B: So am I. (= A: I was very sleepy last night. B: I am hungry, too.) • My mom likes mangoes and my brother does too. (= My mom likes mangoes, and my brother likes mangoes, too.) • He didn't say anything, and I didn't either. (= He didn't say anything, and I didn't say anything, too.) • Her father likes to travel, and she does either. (= Her father likes to travel, and she likes to travel, too.) • He didn't study hard, and neither did I. (= He didn't study hard, and I didn't study hard, too.) • She doesn't review the lessons, and neither her friend. (= She doesn't review the lessons, and her friend didn't review the lessons, too.)

3.2 More about Elliptic Sentence Structure Elliptic means an elimination of word or a number of words from a sentence in order to make a shorter and better sentence structure.

4.1 English Prepositions A preposition is a word governing, and usually coming in front of, a noun or pronoun and expressing a relation to another word or element, as in: • She left before breakfast • What did you come for?

There are more than 100 prepositions in English. Yet this is a very small number when you think of the thousands of other words (nouns, verbs etc). Prepositions are important words. We use individual prepositions more frequently than other individual words. In fact, the prepositions of, to and in are among the ten most frequent words in English. Here is a short list of 70 of the more common one- word prepositions. Many of these prepositions have more than one meaning. Please refer to a dictionary for precise meaning and usage. For a full list of 150 prepositions (including one-word and complex prepositions with 370 example sentences).

• aboard • besides • from • than • about • between • for • through • above • beyond • on • to • across • but • in • toward • after • by • inside • towards • against • concerning • into • under • along • considering • like • underneath • amid • despite • minus • unlike • among • down • near • until • anti • during • of • up • around • except • off • upon • as • excepting • past • versus • at • excluding • per • via • before • onto • plus • with • behind • opposite • regarding • within • below • outside • round • without • beneath • over • save • beside • following • since

4.2 English Preposition Rule There is one very simple rule about prepositions. And, unlike most rules, this rule has no exceptions. Rule A preposition is followed by a "noun". It is never followed by a verb. By "noun" we include:

31

• noun (dog, money, love) • proper noun (name) (Bangkok, Mary) • pronoun (you, him, us) • noun group (my first job) • (swimming)

A preposition cannot be followed by a verb. If we want to follow a preposition by a verb, we must use the "-ing" form which is really a gerund or verb in noun form. Here are some examples:

Subject + verb preposition "noun"

The food is on the table.

She lives in Japan.

Tara is looking for you.

The letter is under your blue book.

Pascal is used to English people.

She isn't used to working.

I ate before coming.

Question In the following sentences, why is "to" followed by a verb? That should be impossible, according to the rule: • I would like to go now. • She used to smoke. Answer In these sentences, "to" is not a preposition. It is part of the ("to go", "to smoke").

4.3 Prepositions of Place: at, in, on In general, we use: • at for a POINT • in for an ENCLOSED SPACE • on for a SURFACE

32

At in on

POINT ENCLOSED SPACE SURFACE

at the corner in the garden on the wall

at the bus stop in London on the ceiling

at the door in France on the door

at the top of the page in a box on the cover

at the end of the road in my pocket on the floor

at the entrance in my wallet on the carpet

at the crossroads in a building on the menu

at the entrance in a car on a page

Look at these examples: • Jane is waiting for you at the bus stop. • The shop is at the end of the street. • My plane stopped at Dubai and Hanoi and arrived in Bangkok two hours late. • When will you arrive at the office? • Do you work in an office? • I have a meeting in New York. • Do you live in Japan? • Jupiter is in the Solar System. • The author's name is on the cover of the book. • There are no prices on this menu. • You are standing on my foot. • There was a "no smoking" sign on the wall. • I live on the 7th floor at 21 Oxford Street in London.

Notice the use of the prepositions of place at, in and on in these standard expressions:

at in on

at home in a car on a bus

at work in a taxi on a train

33

at school in a helicopter on a plane

at university in a boat on a ship

at college in a lift (elevator) on a bicycle, on a motorbike

at the top in the newspaper on a horse, on an elephant

at the bottom in the sky on the radio, on television

at the side in a row on the left, on the right

at reception in Oxford Street on the way

4.4 Prepositions of Time: at, in, on We use: • at for a PRECISE TIME • in for MONTHS, YEARS, CENTURIES and LONG PERIODS • on for DAYS and DATES

at In on

MONTHS, YEARS, PRECISE TIME DAYS, DATES CENTURIES, LONG PERIODS

At 3 o'clock in May on Sunday

At 10.30am in summer on Tuesdays

At noon in the summer on 6 March

At dinnertime in 1990 on 25 Dec. 2010

At bedtime in the 1990s on Christmas Day

At sunrise in the next century on Independence Day

At sunset in the Ice Age on my birthday

At the moment in the past/future on New Year's Eve

Look at these examples: • I have a meeting at 9am. • The shop closes at midnight.

34

• Jane went home at lunchtime. • In England, it often snows in December. • Do you think we will go to Jupiter in the future? • There should be a lot of progress in the next century. • Do you work on Mondays? • Her birthday is on 20 November. • Where will you be on New Year's Day?

Notice the use of the preposition of time at in the following standard expressions:

Expression Example

At night The stars shine at night.

At the weekend I don't usually work at the weekend.

At Christmas/Easter I stay with my family at Christmas.

At the same time We finished the test at the same time.

At present He's not home at present. Try later.

Notice the use of the prepositions of time in and on in these common expressions:

in On

In the morning on Tuesday morning

In the mornings on Saturday mornings

In the afternoon(s) on Sunday afternoons

In the evening(s) on Monday evening

When we say last, next, every, this we do not also use at, in, on. • I went to London last June. (not in last June) • He's coming back next Tuesday. (not on next Tuesday) • I go home every Easter. (not at every Easter) • We'll call you this evening. (not in this evening)

5.1 Phrasal Verbs and other multi-word verbs

40

Phrasal verbs are part of a large group of verbs called "multi-word verbs". Phrasal verbs and other multi-word verbs are an important part of the . Multi-word verbs, including phrasal verbs, are very common, especially in spoken English. A multi-word verb is a verb like "pick up", "turn on" or "get on with". For convenience, many people refer to all multi-word verbs as phrasal verbs. These verbs consist of a basic verb + another word or words.

The other word(s) can be prepositions and/or adverbs. The two or three words that make up multi- word verbs form a short "phrase"—which is why these verbs are often all called "phrasal verbs". The important thing to remember is that a multi-word verb is still a verb. "Get" is a verb. "Get up", is also a verb, a different verb. "Get" and "get up" are two different verbs. They do not have the same meaning. So you should treat each multi-word verb as a separate verb, and learn it like any other verb. Look at these examples. You can see that there are three types of multi-word verb:

single-word verb look direct your eyes in a You must look before you certain direction leap. multi- prepositional look after take care of Who is looking after the word verbs baby? verbs phrasal verbs look up search for and find You can look up my information in a reference number in the telephone

book directory.

phrasal- look anticipate with pleasure I look forward to meeting prepositional forward to you. verbs

In this lesson we look at the three types of multi-word verbs, including phrasal verbs: Like many grammar books, we divide multi-word verbs into: - prepositional verbs - phrasal verbs - phrasal-prepositional verbs Other , however, call all multi-word verbs "phrasal verbs".

5.2 Phrasal Verbs Phrasal verbs are a group of multi-word verbs made from a verb plus another word or words. Many people refer to all multi-word verbs as phrasal verbs. On these pages we make a distinction between three types of multi-word verbs: prepositional verbs, phrasal verbs and phrasal-prepositional verbs.

On this page we look at phrasal verbs proper. Phrasal verbs are made of: verb + adverb

41

Phrasal verbs can be: • intransitive (no direct object) • transitive (direct object)

Here are some examples of phrasal verbs:

examples Phrasal meaning direct verbs object

get up rise from bed I don't like to get up. intransitive phrasal cease to He was late because his car broke verbs break down function down. transitive put off postpone We will have to put off the meeting. phrasal verbs turn down refuse They turned down my offer.

5.3 Separable Phrasal Verbs When phrasal verbs are transitive (that is, they have a direct object), we can usually separate the two parts. For example, "turn down" is a separable phrasal verb. We can say: "turn down my offer" or "turn my offer down". Look at this table:

transitive They turned down my offer. phrasal verbs are They turned my offer down.

separable

However, if the direct object is a pronoun, we have no choice. We must separate the phrasal verb and insert the pronoun between the two parts. Look at this example with the separable phrasal verb "switch on":

42 direct John switched on the radio. object pronouns John switched the radio on. These are all possible. must go between John switched it on. the two parts of transitive John switched on it. This is not possible.

phrasal verbs

What is Separable or inseparable phrasal verbs? Some dictionaries tell you when phrasal verbs are separable. If a dictionary writes "look (something) up", you know that the phrasal verb "look up" is separable, and you can say "look something up" and "look up something". It's a good idea to write "something/somebody" as appropriate in your vocabulary book when you learn a new phrasal verb, like this: • get up • break down • put something/somebody off • turn something/somebody down This tells you whether the verb needs a direct object (and where to put it).

5.4 Prepositional Verbs Prepositional verbs are a group of multi-word verbs made from a verb plus another word or words. Many people refer to all multi-word verbs as phrasal verbs. On these pages we make a distinction between three types of multi-word verbs: prepositional verbs, phrasal verbs and phrasal-prepositional verbs. On this page we look at prepositional verbs. Prepositional verbs are made of: verb + preposition Because a preposition always has an object, all prepositional verbs have direct objects. Here are some examples of prepositional verbs:

examples prepositional verbs meaning direct object

believe in have faith in the existence of I believe in God.

look after take care of He is looking after the dog.

talk about Discuss Did you talk about me?

43

wait for Await John is waiting for Mary.

Prepositional verbs cannot be separated. That means that we cannot put the direct object between the two parts. For example, we must say "look after the baby". We cannot say "look the baby after":

prepositional verbs are Who is looking after the This is possible.

inseparable baby?

Who is looking the baby This is not

after? possible.

It is a good idea to write "something/somebody" in your vocabulary book when you learn a new prepositional verb, like this: • believe in something/somebody • look after something/somebody This reminds you that this verb needs a direct object (and where to put it).
