Key Grammar Structures
-
I don't believe there's an outlet in here.
➔ Negative present simple + existential there‑is construction
➔ The speaker says they "don’t" believe, using the negative present simple. "there's" is a contraction of "there is" and introduces something that exists – in this case an "outlet".
-
He's trying to bail.
➔ Present continuous (progressive) with infinitive "to" + verb
➔ "He's" = "he is". The present continuous "is trying" shows an action happening now, followed by the infinitive "to bail" (to escape).
-
He just threw something out of the car.
➔ Simple past tense + adverb "just"
➔ "Just" emphasizes that the action happened a moment ago. The verb "threw" is in the simple past, showing a completed action.
-
Give me your hands.
➔ Imperative mood (direct command)
➔ "Give" is the base form used as a command. No subject is expressed because commands are directed at the listener.
-
Stop resisting.
➔ Imperative + gerund (verb‑ing) after "stop"
➔ "Stop" is used as a command followed by the gerund "resisting". This structure tells someone to cease an ongoing action.
-
He has a warrant for his arrest.
➔ Present simple verb "has" + noun phrase + prepositional phrase "for his arrest"
➔ "Has" is the third‑person singular present of "have". The noun phrase "a warrant" is the object, and "for his arrest" explains the purpose.
-
If he makes any overt turns, we will let Air Service call it.
➔ First conditional (if‑clause + will + infinitive)
➔ "If" introduces a possible future condition. "Makes" is present simple, and the result clause uses "will let" + infinitive "call".
-
We are going to let Air Service call it.
➔ "Be going to" + infinitive (future intention)
➔ "Are going to" expresses a planned action. The infinitive "let" follows, indicating what will be allowed.
-
They caught him behind a shed.
➔ Simple past tense + prepositional phrase "behind a shed"
➔ "Caught" is the past tense of "catch". The location is given by the prepositional phrase "behind a shed".
-
He is in custody.
➔ Present simple "is" + prepositional phrase "in custody" (state verb)
➔ "Is" links the subject "He" to the location/state "in custody". This is a stative construction, not an action.
