/ September 18, 2016Sir,
Could you pls explain about the Simple Past and Past continuous Tenses
Mr. Morton
/ March 23, 2017Sure.
Simple tense is using the simplest form of the verb, whether past present of future. Here is are three examples:
1. Jody ran.
2. Jody runs.
3. Jody will run.
The first example is simple past tense. The second example is simple present tense. The third example is simple future tense.
Continuous tenses, or progressive tenses as I call them, are for actions that are ongoing. These are actions that have not been completed. Here are three examples:
1. Jody was running.
2. Jody is running.
3. Jody will be running.
Progressive tenses always work with helping verbs and the main verbs end with the “-ing” suffix.
Best wishes!

/ March 6, 2015I did not major in English, so I am sometimes confused and may be so here. In your exercises on prepositions you have the following. The instructions say there are at least two prepositions in each sentence. Is “around” a preposition? If so, what is the object of the preposition? Is it implied, as in “spinning around [itself]?
7. The red lights above us started spinning around and flashing red.
Mr. Morton
/ March 23, 2017Yes, the object is implied. Great comment!
