💙SO - SUCH / TOO - ENOUGH💙

💙 SO - SUCH / TOO - ENOUGH 💙 ❤ SO   (tan, así, entonces) y   SUCH   (semejante, tal, tan, tanto), suelen confundir. VOY a intentar explicar sus diferencias y cómo se  utilizan.    ❤ ejemplos: •    I didn't like the film. The plot was   so boring !!      (No disfruté de la película. ¡¡La trama era tan aburrida!!) •    I didn't enjoy the film.   It was   such a boring plot !!     (No disfruté de la película. ¡¡Era una historia tan aburrida!!) ❤ Tanto   SO   como   SUCH   refuerzan el significado de un adjetivo.   Observa: •    It's a beautiful day, isn't it? It's   so warm . (= really warm)    (Es un día hermoso, ¿no? Está tan cálido. (= realmente cálido) •    We enjoyed our vacation. We had such a good time .   (= a really good time)      (Disfrutamos nuestra vacación. La pasamos tan bien. (= realmente muy bien) Ahora, compara   SO   y   SUCH   en estas dos oraciones  •   I like Miguel and Victoria.   They are   so nice .    (M

➽ would used to be + always + ing❤ ❤WOULD Like 'used to' and the Past Simple, 'would' with 'always' suggests an old habit that stopped in the past. Unlike 'used to' or the Past Simple 'would always' suggests a willingness to do the action or amusement and/or annoyance. It can also suggest an extreme habit. The opposite is expressed with 'would never'. ☺My grandmother would always get me a book for Christmas. ☺Sarah would always come late to work on Mondays. It is important to remember that 'would always' is not the same as ‘used to’ or the Past Simple. Would cannot be used to speak about past facts or generalisations, only past repeated actions. ❤USED TO Se usan "used to" y "would" para describir los hábitos o cosas que eran verdad o ciertas en el pasado pero que ya no ocurren o no son verdad en el presente. Se puede usar "used to" o "would" para describir las accione

❤A Review of Verb Tense❤

❤A Review of Verb Tense❤ function: The tense of a verb indicates the time of the action or state of being that is expressed by the verb. Each of the six tenses has a basic form. All basic forms are derived from the principal parts: present (base), present participle ( be  verb plus  -ing ), past ( -ed ), and past participle (- en  plus  have ,  had ,  has ). Using the correct tense of verbs when you speak and write is essential to understanding in what time period actions took place. ✌ Simple Forms Let’s start with the simple tenses. ❤ Present First is the present tense, which indicates actions or conditions occurring now. Present tense is often used to state general information as well as thoughts and opinions. Ex. Water  freezes  at 32 degrees Fahrenheit.  ❤ Past Next is the past tense, which indicates actions or conditions that have occurred already and do not extend into the present. Ex. She  felt  better after her test. ❤ Future The last one of the

☺SEPARABLE AND INSEPARABLE PHRASAL VERBS☺

☺SEPARABLE AND INSEPARABLE PHRASAL VERBS☺ There are  phrasal verbs  that can be separated, some that cannot and others that can be either.     You have to  write  down  everything the teacher says.     You have to  write  everything the teacher says  down . A phrasal verb  is separable when it is  transitive  (it needs a direct object). Look at the example:     ❤“Please,  switch off  the light”.  / “Please,  switch  the light  off ”.     ❤“ To switch off ” is a  transitive phrasal verb  and therefore it is  separable . The  direct object  is  the noun ❤“ the  light ” and         that is why both examples are correct.  However, if we use the pronoun “ it ”, we  MUST  separate the phrasal verb and say:     ❤"Please,  switch  it  off. " On the contrary, an  intransitive phrasal verb  is  not separable . For example, if a boy complains, the mum can say:     ❤"When you  grow up , you can watch all the TV you want."     “ To grow up
