Brilliant teaching

[@EnglishWithAshish]

Thank you!

[@fazilpeerally5288]

Hi Teacher Ashish! I have watched your video lessons for months. The are, indeed, very detailed and informative. I get rid of many confusion in my mind. Thanks a lot! However, while reading the grammarian book, Wren & Martin, on the Chapter " Intransitive verbs used as Transitives ", I come to an explanation which reads as follows: A noun used adverbially to modify a verb, an adjective, or an adverb denoting time, place, distance, weight, value, etc.., is called an Adverbial Object or Adverbial Accusative, and is said to be in the Accusative Case adverbially; as 1. He held the post then years. 2. He can`t wait a moment longer. 3. He went home. 4. He swam a mile. 5. He weighs seven stone. 6. The watch cost nine hundred rupees. I am very perplexed. On this note, would you mind making a video lesson on this topic. I would be very much grateful to you. Thanking you. Best Wishes, Fazil

[@EnglishWithAshish]

Hey Fazil, Thanks for your kind words! I have heard and seen people using transitive verbs intransitively by omitting the object, but intransitive verbs can't have an object and, hence, can't be used transitively, per me. Your examples miss prepositions on the right place. For example - • He held the post for ten years. Here, "held" is a transitive verb because it can be acted upon something or somebody. You can hold something or somebody. "Ten years" is no the object of the verb "held". It's a part of the phrase "for ten years" where it's modifying the verb. In the example " I went home", home isn't working as an object, it's working as an adverb, telling us the place. "Home" doesn't denote any physical place, it's an abstract noun. Hope you got it! I'll do some more research on this and definitely make a video! Thanks for bringing it up! 😊

[@fazilpeerally5288]

My very dear Guru Ashish, Thanks for getting back to me. I`m very delighted to your short explanation about my question. However, I have a another question for you. Would you make a difference between a Cognate Object and a Direct Object. I`m very confused. Please and thank you. Happy New Year 2020!. With best wishes, Fazil

[@EnglishWithAshish]

Great! You are great! But can you tell me about the negatives? Are bare infinitives no there?

What's your question, Mir? Are you asking about negative bare infinitives? If yes, here's an example: I can (not run).

[@afzal_sir]

@@EnglishWithAshish No, I want to know if the main verbs in negative sentences are also bare infinitives.. For example, She does not sing a song. What is the verb "sing" here?

Hello sir ! Hope you are doing great !first of all thank you so much for all the effort and hard work you put to make these video. I have question you give example of .... All she wants is to cry Can we use present indefinite or is am are following each other bcz i remember my teacher pointed my mistake by saying u are using these two verbs together

[@EnglishWithAshish]

Hello, Asad! Thank you for the concern; I'm doing better now. Coming to your question, yes, you can do that. You need to have the right context though. •All that she does is paint. • What you really are is a kind person. (Here IS and ARE are coming next to each other. ARE is the verb of the noun clause {subject})

[@englishwithnadee4363]

Excellent

[@EnglishWithAshish]

Thank you!

[@sanajaved4996]

Sir modal auxiliary verbs like should , can , could must are not main verbs so we need main verb after them but why grammarian considered them bare infintive? Because infintives works as noun. I should go ( go is base form works as main verb?

[@EnglishWithAshish]

True. Even I find it baffling.

[@rahul2216]

What is the part of speech of bare infinitive or its work in sentence. Sir, you told it works as obj complement . It is clear but i want to know its part of speech

[@rahul2216]

It is adjective

[@EnglishWithAshish]

Yes.

[@charlesprakas4581]

Thanks brother 💐🙏💐

[@EnglishWithAshish]

My pleasure, brother!

[@entenglishnewspapertrainer6421]

sir can we not take can as the main verb in the to be written sentence? he can do anything. if we take this in the past tense. it will be he could do anything. as can change its form so it is an irregular main verb while do did not change its form of verb so non-finite.

[@EnglishWithAshish]

Modal verbs can be used as main verbs as they are auxiliary verbs.

[@randyugno4955]

Great teacher

[@EnglishWithAshish]

Thank you for the kind words, Randy.

[@phumkiatwananuraksakul7815]

Hi teacher,You are amazing teacher to almost cover everything,but in my view,when bare infinitive comes after Modal helping verb , had better, and would rather,it should be called verb base form not bare infinitive since zero or bare infinitive cannot be a main verb but non-finite verb. If we are not on the same page on this,please have explanation more on it.Thank you.

[@EnglishWithAshish]

The same logic should be applied with modal verbs. I absolutely agree with you.

Does it mean that it doesn't have any tenses?

[@EnglishWithAshish]

This is what it looks like.

[@brilliantjitin8744]

Infinitives work as object compliments?

[@EnglishWithAshish]

Not really. Object complements either rename the objects or describe their states. When infinitives come after objects, they don't do either. Yes, they can come after objects, bit they don't function the same way object complements do. Hope it helps!

Is there any phrase of bare infinitive

A phrase starting with a bare infinitive will be a bare infinitive phrase. • Let me sit there. (Bare infinitive phrase - sit there) • She's making me act crazy. (Bare infinitive phrase - act crazy) Hope this helps!

Does it act as adverb

"There" would be the adverb, telling us the place of the action.

With all due respect work on your pronunciation skills. I know you're definitely not an English native speaker so I recognize your effort. But it seems you think you speak clear English but you don't. Don't take this the wrong way. Be a little more humble.

[@EnglishWithAshish]

Appreciate the feedback, Carlos! I'd like you to watch my recent video (last) and tell me if there's any difference in pronunciation. 😊

[@phumkiatwananuraksakul7815]

I think what he meat is that when you speak,it is not clear like a native speaker,but I think your pronunciation is fine to understand unless someone who is not good at listening skills or not good at grammars might not understand you 100% since I am good at it,so I can understand you perfectly.I am not a native speaker,but I am also very interested in teaching English too that we used to catch up to see whether we can be a partner to teach English online together because I love the way you make English looks in details to make people know what we called functions of part of speech or phrases.
