Key Grammar Structures

  • Can I hold your hand

    ➔ Modal verb 'can' in a yes‑no question

    ➔ The modal verb "can" is placed before the subject to ask for permission.

  • We got adopted by a bald guy.

    ➔ Passive voice with past simple (got + past participle)

    ➔ The verb "got" + past participle "adopted" forms a passive construction meaning "We were adopted".

  • I thought this would be more like Annie.

    ➔ Future in the past (would + infinitive)

    "Would be" expresses a future situation imagined from a past viewpoint; the speaker imagined that "this" would turn out to be like Annie.

  • These are not treats, these are guests.

    ➔ Contrastive linking with the verb "to be" (negation + positive)

    "Not" negates "treats" while the second clause affirms "guests", showing a clear contrast.

  • What kind of dog is that?

    ➔ Wh‑question with the verb "to be"

    "What" asks for information; the structure "what ... is" places the verb before the subject for a question.

  • You will not touch anything.

    ➔ Future simple with negative form (will + not + base verb)

    "Will not" (or "won’t") expresses a firm prohibition in the future; "touch" stays in its base form.

  • You may touch the floor.

    ➔ Modal verb "may" for permission (may + base verb)

    "May" grants permission; it is followed directly by the base verb "touch".

  • You will not bother me while I'm working.

    ➔ Future simple negative + subordinate clause with present continuous

    "Will not" gives a future prohibition; the clause "while I'm working" uses the present continuous "am working" to describe a simultaneous ongoing action.

  • Does this count us annoying?

    ➔ Do‑support in a yes‑no question (auxiliary "does" + base verb)

    "Does" is the auxiliary used to form a question; it precedes the subject "this" and is followed by the base verb "count".
