Grammar More
21st January 2013
4.00 pm - 6.00 pm

Actually I didn't come to the class for today because I need to go to the JB :)

Today Miss Zu had taught about non-linear text again. Miss Zu had given a task that we need to present it next week on Tuesday. Today's night, we had a replacement class. For tonight, we have presentation about grammar. The group that present is Farah and Asmidah, and the other group is Fatin Izzati and Amirah. Farah and Asmidah present about present continuous and past continuous tense. 

The using of present continuous tense are to show an action being done at the moment; to show the process of doing a longer action which is in progress; to show a future action; and to show an action that is repeated many times (always, constantly, frequently). The using of past continuous tense are used when two action occurred at the same time, but one action began earlier and was in progress when the other action occurred; to mention something that happen at particular time or over period of time; and when one action happens followed by another action in the past. 

Fatin Izzati and Amirah present about present perfect tense and past perfect tense. Present perfect tense is used to express past action with no specific time indicated. Rule number one an action which took place in the past, the time of the action is unknown; an action which started in the past but it effect has continued until the present and will probably continue into the future; and repeated actions in the past. Rule number two are the affirmative; the negative; and the interrogative. Rule number three is time expressions (since, for, yet, recently/lately, already, just, until, now/up to now/so far, ever, etc.). Past perfect tense is used to describe an action which took place before another action in the past. Rule number one are two actions that happened in the past, the verb of the earlier action is in the past perfect, while the verb of the later action is in the simple past; an action that happened before a particular time in the past. Rule number two are the affirmative; the negative; and the interrogative. Rule number three is time expressions (before, after, as soon as, when, until and by the time).
