Past Forms Crossword

Hello, students!

My post comes back. This post will talk about past forms of verbs. Let’s start the learning time!

As we have studied, there are three types of verbs in English related to different times (present or past). They’re present & infinitive form, past form, and past participle form. Most Indonesian people call them as “Verb 1 (for present & infinitive form), Verb 2 (for past form), and Verb 3 (for past participle form).

5. Mobil kami berwarna ungu.

I have a new car

This post will not tell you about my new car. Haha, yap it is because I don't have my own car. In fact, this post will tell you about a strategic way to make a sentence in English. This will help you to arrange simple sentences as well as paragraphs. Thus, this will also help you to understand the descriptive or procedure texts that you will learn later. Well, are you ready, students??! Let's get started!

  

The first thing you need to know is the sentence pattern in English. Ya, pola kalimat dalam bahasa Inggris sama dengan bahasa Indonesia, termasuk penempatan keterangan yang bisa diletakkan di depan maupun di belakang. Penempatan bagian kalimat menandakan bahwa bagian itu yang lebih ditekankan.

Sentence Pattern (Pola Kalimat)

1. subject + verb + object + adverb

For example : 

a. We learn English every Tuesday and Thursday.

     s      v       obj              adverb (of time)

b. I buy a dictionary in a book store.

    s   v          obj      adverb (of place)

2. adverb + subject + verb + object

For example :

a. Every Tuesday and Thursday we learn English.

             adverb (of time)          s     v       obj

b. In a book store I buy a dictionary.

    adverb            s   v       obj      


The pattern is simple, isn't it? Now, let's move on. Let's try to translate simple sentences into English.

1. Saya menyukai kucing saya.
       I         love     my cat.
2. Saya mempunyai sebuah mobil baru.
       I        have           a       new car.
3. Mereka bermain bersama seekor sapi di halaman sekolah.
      They       play      with        a      cow   in the school yard.

a naughty cat
