...Functions of phrases – Улогата на фразите Зборовите се комбинираат едни со други, за да се формира фраза, а фразите се една од основните шеми по која се гради реченицата. Фразата претставува група од зборови која што функционира како една единица, и не вклучува глагол во неа. Фразите можат да имаат различни улоги во една реченица. Тие може да функционираат како предмет, подмет, додаток, надополнувач, и прилошка фраза. Фразата претставува продолжение на на еден од зборовите во неа, којшто се нарекува глава на реченицата. На пример, зборот “creatures” (суштества) е главен збор во фразата “the strange green creatures with huge heads” (чудните зелени суштества со огромни глави). Секоја фраза се состои од најмалце два збора. (big dog големо куче) Фразите можат да се формираат и со многу повеќе зборови (that lovley old pub by the bridge over the river прекрасната стара кафеана до мостот преку реката). Некаде дури може да се забележат фрази од само еден збор. Фраза во рамките на друга фраза Подолгите фрази се составени од помали фрази.

...THE APPOSITIVE PHRASE An appositive is a word placed after another word to explain or identify it. The appositive always appears after the word it explains or identifies. It is always a noun or a pronoun, and the word it explains is also a noun or pronoun. ex. My uncle, a lawyer, is visiting us. My teacher, Miss Marshall, is very strict. An appositive phrase consists of the appositive and its modifiers which may themselves be phrases. ex. My radio, an old portable, is in the repair shop. The boys climbed the mountain, one of the highest in the West. Identifying Appositive Phrases. Underline the appositive phrase in each of the following sentences. Example: Our house, a brick bungalow, is on Oak Street. 1. Queen Victoria, one of England's greatest monarchs, ruled for sixty-three years. 2.

...Transition words and phrases are vital to the success of any essay. They are the bread and butter of writing. They are the glue that holds all essays together. Think of bricks building a house without mortar. Lack of mortar would cause the house to fall apart without it. Transitions hold the same importance. We need these words and phrases to join sentences and thoughts together in a coherent fashion. The function and importance of transitions In both academic writing and professional writing, your goal is to convey information clearly and concisely, if not to convert the reader to your way of thinking. Transitions help you to achieve these goals by establishing logical connections between sentences, paragraphs, and sections of your papers. In other words, transitions tell readers what to do with the information you present them. Whether single words, quick phrases or full sentences, they function as signs for readers that tell them how to think about, organize, and react to old and new ideas as they read through what you have written. Transitions provide the reader with directions for how to piece together your ideas into a logically coherent argument. Transitions are not just embellishments to make your paper sound or read better. They are words with particular meanings that tell the reader to think and react in a particular way to your ideas. In providing the reader with these important cues, transitions help readers understand the logic of how your ideas fit together...

Although ‘language learning’ is considered less important than language acquisition, most of what is learned has been coming from the formal teaching in school. It is also said that the acquisition of grammatical structures follows a ‘natural order’ which is predictable. For a given language, some grammatical structures tend to be acquired early while others late. It can be derived that language learning could also be predictable and that grammatical structures...

...I. Introduction: As we know there are four basics English conditionals that we use to express possible or imaginary situations: Zero, First, Second, and Third. Conditional sentences contain two clauses: the “if” (condition) clause, and the “result “clause. All conditionals have two easy, possible structures and either structure can be used without changing the meaning. We can put the “if” clause first, or the “result” first. Note that we only use a comma when the “if” clause come first. II. Hero Conditional: Form: In hero conditional sentences, the tense in both parts of the sentences is the simple present. |If clause (condition) |Main clause (result) | |If + simple present |Simple present | |If this thing happens |That thing happens | As in all conditional sentences, the order of the clauses is not fixed. You may have to rearrange the pronouns and adjust punctuation when you change the order of the clauses, but the meaning is identical. In zero conditional sentences, you can replace "if" with "when", because both express general truths. The meaning will be unchanged. For examples: 1. If you heat ice, it melts. 2. Ice melts if you heat it. 3. When you heat ice...

Another reason was due to the rivalry between the English and Dutch in the 17th century. "You don't have to pay for me. Let's go dutch today." "I can't believe John didn't pay for me.

...Secrets to Academic Success was written by Elana Peled, Ed.D. She is the founder of Academic Success for All. She started writing to help people who struggle to achieve academic success. This book reveals the powerful secrets that underlie academic success. The second secret is the learning creativity. It is about that every single person on the planet has the capacity to be creative. Our creativity is involved in how we make sense of the world and is intimately connected with our ability to learn. Based on my analysis in her writing style, she had written this chapter in grammatical correct English. One of the most important factors is that sentences were not formed by words alone but by structural units. The author had conformed her words, phrases, and sentences to specific pattern determined by the syntactic rules of the language. She utilized different types of sentences, passive voice, relative clause, and pronoun to emphasize some facts, attract our attention, and make effective writing. The author used a variety of sentence types at varying lengths to express more strong statements, reasonable ideas, interesting and dynamic energy....

...or expression, and many times the idiom better describes the full nuance of meaning. The major function of an idiom is to translate the literal meaning of the words to a different meaning. Many times, the popular use of the term is what makes it easy to understand. An example of an idiom would be “break a leg,” which in translation means to wish someone good luck. An appropriate circumstance for using “break a leg” would be before a performer is going on stage. A misunderstanding could occur if someone were to take the term literal. For example, if a performer were about to go onto stage and someone shouted, “break a leg” and the performer took it literal, he/she could then become angry or upset with the person. An analogy is a phrase used to help compare two things that are similar to one another. This major function of an analogy is to make the words easier to understand by comparing the two. An example of an...
