Teacher why you have used "HAVE" with "SHE" in the 3 sen ? I'm really confused.

[soloasdubh]

@MohanaPlus Because the sentence isn't in the "present tense"; it is in the "future perfect". To make a sentence in the future perfect tense, you use the "future" of 'have' with the past participle, eg. I will have listened, You will have done, She will have learnt, He will have practised, John will have retired, I'll have gone. You use it when you say that you will finish something before a specific time eg. 'I will have finished this book before you come back tomorrow morning.'

I wish I had such a good teacher at the University. Thank you for your explanations.

[soloasdubh]

@learnenglishmercedes I wish I had such a good teacher at university.* It's the same as at school, in college, in town. NOT 'at the school'.

[verynicekhan]

then what is the difference between these two sentences ....i have gone to usa ..i have been to usa ?

[filetransferSAW]

@verynicekhan

if you say "i have been to the usa", it sounds like you went there, but you are not there now.

[germanoller]

great teacher

[nevanovna]

You are speaking American not ENGLISH

[uktransplantedyank]

@nevanovna

Ironically, his English is better than the English spoken by a lot of English people.

[RobertNicholls]

@uktransplantedyank That's not really ironic considering it's his mother tongue. If he was Mexican this joke would work.

[uktransplantedyank]

@RobertNicholls

It's ironic in the sense that a lot of Brits in general (not just the English) like to deride Americans for allegedly "butchering" the English language, when in fact in Britain you can hear "you was" and "innit" being uttered frequently.

[RobertNicholls]

@uktransplantedyank maybe, but "you was" isn't that common. Maybe to those uneducated. "Innit" is more common but isn't the norm.

[uktransplantedyank]

@RobertNicholls

I'm not sure I agree that "you was" isn't that common. It seems a perennial favourite in Birmingham and the Black Country at the very least.

[RobertNicholls]

@uktransplantedyank Really? To be fair I live in a fairly middle class area in the south.

[uktransplantedyank]

@RobertNicholls

You may be correct in that bad grammar seems to be a working-class phenomenon overall.

[FreeEnglishVideos]
