Key Grammar Structures

• Isn't Rachel supposed to be back by now?

  ➔ be supposed to + infinitive (expressing expectation)

  ➔ The word "supposed" introduces a passive‑modal construction that shows something is expected to happen.

• But actually she should be here by now.

  ➔ modal verb should + infinitive (expressing expectation or advice)

  ➔ "should" is used here to show that the speaker expects her to be present now.

• Oh so you talked to her—did she?

  ➔ question tag with inversion (did + subject)

  ➔ The auxiliary "did" moves before the subject "she" to form a yes‑no question.

• I had to go after her; I did what I had to do.

  ➔ past modal "had to" + infinitive (obligation in the past)

  ➔ "had to" expresses a compulsory action that was necessary in the past; the infinitive "go" follows it.

• I’m not comfortable having that kind of power and control over someone’s life.

  ➔ adjective + gerund (comfortable + having)

  ➔ The adjective "comfortable" is followed by the gerund "having" to describe the state of being comfortable with something.

• I’m going to send 72 long‑stemmed red roses to her parents’ house.

  ➔ future intention with "going to" + infinitive

  ➔ The phrase "going to send" indicates a plan that the speaker has already decided on.

• If you make all of my decisions for me, I’ll lose my independence.

  ➔ first‑conditional (if + present simple, will + base verb)

  ➔ "If" introduces a realistic future condition; the result clause uses "will" to talk about the future consequence.

• You know, I’m not comfortable having that kind of power.

  ➔ discourse marker "you know" (used for emphasis or checking listener’s agreement)

  ➔ "you know" is inserted to involve the listener, similar to saying "do you understand?" or "right?".
