English : Problem with my E [4]

PART ONE : GRAMMAR

After learn about verb and subject. We are talking about complement and modifier. This is not an important thing but sometime used.

Complement

As we know that a complement completes the verb, and not in every sentence require a complement. A complement answers the question What? and Whom?.

Some simple examples of complement :

§ If you wanna go to mini market then somebody ask you : “What will you buy?”, just answer with “I will buy noddles” or “I will buy some cakes” or another things you want.

§ When you go to the party, you meet your brother there. After say hi, he told you that he saw Mary your girl friend with another guy, but you could not listen clearly. You can re-ask by : “Sorry? With whom did you see Mary? And what did they do?”. If she lucky, you will hear he answer with : “I saw she with a guardian and they had a fight.”

It is so easy, isn’t it? Now, I’ll give you a modifier lesson.


Modifier

A modifier tells the time, place or manner of the action.

A modifier of time usually comes last if more than one modifier is present. Very often it is a prepositional phrase. Its is a group of words that begins wih a preposition and ends with a noun. For the examples of prepositional phrases are In the morning, at the office, on the table.

A modifier can also be an adverb or an adverbial phrase like last night, hurriedly, next year, outdoors and yesterday. Like complement, every sentence does not require a modifier. And its answer the question When?, Where? and How?.

Let me show you how to use :

Modifier of manner (How?)

How was he driving?

He was driving very slow.

How was she looking?

She was looking bad.

How could you eat the sting food?

Cause I eaten it without smell anything.

Modifier of time (When?)

When will she die?

She will die in a second. As fast as she can!

When did he watch the movie?

He watched at seven o’clock.

When was you sending the flowers?

I was sending the flowers yesterday.

Modifier of place (Where?)

Where did you buy the car?

I bought the car in showroom.

Where is my ramen?

Yours is under the table of my room.

Where will you go?

I will go to the hell! Follow me, please…

HINT : Normally, the modifier follows the complement but not always. However, the modifier, especially when it is a prepositional phrase, usually can not separate the verb and the complement.

Incorrect : You hit twice the dog.

Correct : You hit the dog twice.

“Hit” as verb and “The dog” as complement.

What next? I’ll give you an exercise. You will like it cause it is so easy.

Five Idioms Today [2]

When I spoke with my friend from egypt, Mahdi, a few days ago, he used too many idioms and pyuuh.. it's so hard to understand till he taught me. And I think you can learn a little bit from our "absurd" conversation.

Anyway, what are idioms?

Idioms can mean regional speech or dialect. It cannot be translated literally into another language because its meaning is not equivalent to that of its component words. You can't find and check it using your dictionary!
In here you can learn 5 idioms every week!

--- #conversation#
Mew : Hey, buddy! Howdy?
Mahdi : Howdy?
Mew : Where are you and what are you doing?
Mahdi : I'm walking on air and writing a letter for Heidelberg University. I got a scholarship!
Mew : Ou! Congratulation! So you should to go to German, eh?

---
pause at here. We've got 2 idioms here: howdy and walk on air.
Howdy
Howdy can mean how are you? or how do you do?
If somebody ask howdy? Please, answer with howdy too. Never answer with fine, thank you. This is a formal expresion, just use if you meet your boss or other that older than you.

Walk On Air
Don't you know that it used to when you are really happy, and feel like you can fly and walk on air.

--- #conversation#
Mew : Ou! Congratulation! So you should to go to German, eh?
Mahdi : Thank you. Yes, sure. I'm learning their language too but eh, I'm not sure I can catch up it easily cause everyone speaks Arabic or English.
Mew : Oh, it's bad for you...
Mahdi : No prob.
Mew : And how about your job? is it good? I thought you have been working so hard this month. Don't you feel tired?
Mahdi : Yeah. I have been working seven days a week. No weekend. No freetime. Ah, I really need to get away.
Mew : Hehehe... You work like a dog!

---
well, we have catch three usefull idioms. Are those sound weird eh?

Catch Up
The first idioms is catch up. I really don't know the true meaning, but I'll use it in the different context. It is sort of means to do something quickly or to advance quicker than usual.

To Get Away
If you feel bored with your job or something, and feel tired too, you can use it. It means that you need a holliday or take a rest.

Work Like A Dog
Is dog a worker? or an executive? I don't think so. I ever heard that every people like dog 'cause it can take care them from thiefs or other bad people.
But here, work like a dog mean that you are a hard worker. In your head always work, work, work and work. You work very hard!

---
It's done!
Please try and use those as soon as possible cause it will help you to remember them.

Five Idioms Today [1]

Anyway, what are idioms?
Idioms can mean regional speech or dialect. It cannot be translated literally into another language because its meaning is not equivalent to that of its component words. You can't find and check it using your dictionary!

In here you can learn 5 idioms every week!

Thank Heaven!
Thank Heaven is not mean you say thank you to heaven or sky. Frankly, you can use it when feel your problem is unclear or feel hopeless. The meaning is same as thank's to God.
For example:
"Thank Heaven he has gone!"
"Oh man, thank Heaven you make my leg broken!"

Big Smoke
If you one to describe a big city, you can use the idioms.Let's see the example for easy use and understand.
"My sister came from a big smoke to meet her family. She brought some books and films that she bought on Cavana Plaza."
Now, you can see that big smoke is not mean a smoker. A long time ago county people started calling cities 'the big smoke because of all the smoke made by the factories – pollution, in other words.

One Horse Town
And for a small city, just describe it with one horse town.
"I live in a one horse town. In this place, every body is too friendly. So many helper from here go to a big city to look for work."
One horse town isn't refer to a jungle or a large park that too many horse live free. This old idiom was often used to describe a very small town, many years ago when horses were used instead of cars.

Mad As A Cut Snake
We use this one when we are really angry.
"Last night my family found out that they had lost a lot of their things and money. They were so angry – they were as mad as a cut snake at the thief."

On Ya Bike
Bike? Is it refer to bicycle? Actually, no, there is an negative expression which means to go or get outta here. Of course, when you need he/she leaves you, you don't want to know he/she goes by a car, a motobike, a train or a bicycle. Just get out!
"What are you talking about? You've make me hurt with those words! Just get out of here – just leave! On ya bike and never come back! Okay?!"
