Could I change'had better' base on Personal Pronouns and tenses?

@englishspeaking360 Ай бұрын

Hello! That's a good question. The phrase "had better" does not change based on pronouns or verb tenses. It stays the same regardless of the subject. The structure is: Subject + had better + base form of the verb Examples: I had better leave now. You had better study for the exam. He had better call her. We had better not be late. The meaning of "had better" is similar to "should", indicating strong advice or a warning about what should be done to avoid negative consequences. Note that "had better" is always followed by the base form of the verb (not "to" or the past tense).

I really need your advice, how I can write a story?" "Hey! Firstly, you could try to write it without even any knowledge." "Secondly, you should mull over the genre of your future book; not to waste your time on it later." "Thirdly, you have to read tremendous amounts of books." "And fourthly, you'd better not write a fanfiction." You tremendously help me to enhance my weak fluency; thank you very much! Ukraine.

(You had better not + infinitive); (I would rather you didn't). What is this in grammatical terms?

@englishspeaking360 4 ай бұрын

The phrases "you had better not (+infinitive)" and "I would rather you didn't" are examples of expressions of preference and advice in grammatical terms. You had better not (+infinitive): This construction is used to give strong advice or warnings. Example: "You had better not eat that." (giving strong advice against eating something) Structure: "had better" + base form of the verb (infinitive without "to"). I would rather you didn't: This construction is used to express a preference about someone else's actions. Example: "I would rather you didn't smoke here." (expressing a preference that someone not smoke in a particular place) Structure: "would rather" + subject + past simple verb (despite the verb being in the past simple, it refers to a present or future action).

@@englishspeaking360 Thank you so much for the explanation. But in grammatical terms both examples still look like nonsense. Kind of a trap. Unless you stop asking yourself questions and just use these collocations as they are. The beauty of the English language?

@englishspeaking360 4 ай бұрын

@Victorsbzh yes, that's right. Sometimes we just need to use an expression as it is without thinking too much. 😅
