1. What what can I Modal can/can’t
do?
LESSON 1 GRAMMAR
Can comes first in the verb phrase (after the subject and before another verb):
We [verb phrase] can take the train to Birmingham.
Can is never used with another modal verb:
He can hear the music from his room sometimes.
Negative (−) form
The negative form of can is can’t. We don’t use don’t/doesn’t/didn’t with can:
I can’t believe you said that!
We can use the full form cannot (one word) in formal contexts or when we want to emphasize something:

Can: uses
Permission
We often use can to ask for or give permission:
Can I take Daisy for a walk?
Students can use calculators during the exam.
We use can’t to forbid (say what you must not do):
You can’t park there.
You can’t just take the day off work. You have to have permission in advance.
Ability
We often use can to talk about ability to do something in the present or future:
I can sing one song in Polish.
Can you sleep on your back?
We can go swimming after school tomorrow, if you like.
We often use can with verbs of perception such as hear, see, smell, taste, and mental process verbs
such as guess, imagine, picture, understand and follow (in the sense of ‘understand’):
I can hear you.
I can see her coming down the road now.
Can you smell something burning?
I can guess why you’re angry.
We can’t follow these instructions for installing this new DVD player. (We can’t understand these
instructions.)
General truths
Última revisión:
PA_00_SGC_13012016 00 GUIAS 06/15/2018
We use can to talk about things which we think are usually, but not always, true:
Reducing cholesterol through diet can be difficult. (It’s not always difficult for everyone, but in general it is
difficult.)
Fireworks can frighten pets.
Swans can be very vicious.
We don’t normally use could to talk about what we believe to be true in the present.
Possibility
We use can to express possibility or to question possibilities:
We can go to Rome in June because both of us have a week off work. (It is possible for us to go to Rome
because we don’t have to work in June.)
Well, how can you be on a diet if you buy so much chocolate? (I don’t think it’s possible that you are on a
diet because you still buy lots of chocolate.)
Guessing and predicting: can’t as the negative of must
When we want to guess or predict something, we use can’t as the negative form of must. We use can’t
have + -ed form as the negative form of must have + -ed. Can’t and can’t have + -ed form express strong
possibility:
A:
Who owns this blue coat? It must be yours.
B:
It can’t be mine. It’s too big. (A uses must to guess that the coat belongs to B. He sees this as a strong
possibility. B uses can’t to express strong negative possibility. The coat is too big, so it isn’t his.)

1. What do you Frequency adverbs
usually do on
LESSON 1 GRAMMAR weekend?
We use some adverbs to describe how frequently we do an activity.
These are called adverbs of frequency and include:
Frequency Adverb of Frequency Example Sentence
100% always I always go to bed before 11 p.m.

90% usually I usually have cereal for breakfast.
80% normally / generally I normally go to the gym.
70% often* / frequently I often surf the internet.

50% sometimes I sometimes forget my wife's birthday.
30% occasionally I occasionally eat junk food.
10% seldom I seldom read the newspaper.
5% hardly ever / rarely I hardly ever drink alcohol.
0% never I never swim in the sea.
The Position of the Adverb in a Sentence

An adverb of frequency goes before a main verb (except with to be)
Subject + adverb + main verb

Subject + to be + adverb
I always remember to do my homework.
He normally gets good marks in exams. They are never pleased to see me.
She isn't usually bad tempered.
An adverb of frequency goes after the verb To Be.
When we use an auxiliary verb (have, will, must, might, could, would, can, etc.), the adverb is placed between the
auxiliary and the main verb. This is also true for to be.
Última revisión:
PA_00_SGC_13012016 00 GUIAS 06/15/2018
Subject + auxiliary + adverb + main verb
She can sometimes beat me in a race.

I would hardly ever be unkind to someone.
They might never see each other again.
They could occasionally be heard laughing.
We can also use the following adverbs at the start of a sentence:
Usually, normally, often, frequently, sometimes, occasionally
 Occasionally, I like to eat Thai food.
BUT we cannot use the following at the beginning of a sentence:
Always, seldom, rarely, hardly, ever, never.
We use hardly ever and never with positive, not negative verbs:
 She hardly ever comes to my parties.

 They never say 'thank you'.
We use ever in questions and negative statements:
 Have you ever been to New Zealand?

 I haven't ever been to Switzerland. (The same as 'I have never been Switzerland').

Mom’s car Genitive case
LESSON 3 GRAMMAR
here are different ways to show ownership of something. To show possession you can use nouns to
modify other nouns.
(For purposes of clarity, we distinguish between the genitive case and the possessive case here.)
The good news is that the genitive case "of" is used less and less in English today. Hooray!
Possessive Case
The possessive case is used to show ownership. The possessive pattern or mark ('s) is generally used
when indicating a relation of ownership or association with a person, rather than a thing. (Linguistically
speaking it is a form of genitive case.)
Singular nouns take -'s.
For example:-
 Bob's presentation.
 Lynne's web site kept growing larger and larger.
There are, as ever, exceptions to this rule. When a group of people is involved or animals.
For example:-
 The members' forum.

 The dogs' tails.
Companies are often treated like people.
For example:

PA_00_SGC_13012016 00 GUIAS 06/15/2018
 Coca Cola's latest advertising campaign.
Irregular plural nouns that don't end in s take -'s.
For example:-
 The children's toys.

 The people's court.
Plural nouns that end in " s " take an apostrophe at the end ( ' ).
For example:-
 The girls' dresses.
People's names that end in "s" you can write (') at the end, or add ('s).
For example:-
 Charles' job was on the line.
 Charles's job was on the line.
Try to avoid sounding like hissing Sid though. When an added - s would lead to three closely
bunched s or z sounds just use an apostrophe at the end.
 The map of Ulysses' journey.
If you have to show joint ownership, give the possessive form to the final name only.
 Abbott and Costello's famous baseball sketch.
