Key Grammar Structures
-
Hello! Am I selected?
➔ Present simple passive question (auxiliary inversion)
➔ The sentence is a yes‑no question in the present simple passive. The auxiliary verb "am" precedes the subject "I" to form the question: "Am I selected?"
-
You are not selected!
➔ Simple present passive negative
➔ The verb "are" + past participle "selected" forms a passive construction; adding "not" makes it negative: "You are not selected."
-
I don't think I can do this anymore.
➔ Negative present simple + modal verb "can" + infinitive
➔ The clause "I don't think" is a negative present simple. Inside it, the modal "can" expresses ability, followed by the infinitive "do": "I can do this." Adding "anymore" signals that the ability no longer holds.

Just trust me!
