Explicação:
He gave Mary ten dollars 
She is baking him a cake 
He passed Paul the ball. (ditransitive)
Ditransitive verb (two objects) -  According to certain linguistics considerations, these objects may be called direct and indirect, or primary and secondary. English has a number of generally ditransitive verbs, such as give and grant, and many transitive verbs that can take an additional argument (commonly a beneficiary or target of the action), such as pass, read, bake, etc.:
Birds fly - intransitive
Some verbs do not require any further elements to make their meaning complete: although there may be further elements in the sentence, these are not essential. This is called intransitive complementation. It involves verbs such as: appear, arrive, come, cough, decrease, die, disappear, drown, fall, go, happen, lie (tell an untruth), matter, rain, rise, sneeze, snow, stop, swim, work.
Miss Gold eats a banana every morning. - The verb to eat is ambitransitive and permits, but do not requires, an object. The sentence Miss Gold eats every morning is grammatically correct.

It involves verbs such as: appear, arrive, come, cough, decrease, die, disappear, drown, fall, go, happen, lie (tell an untruth), matter, rain, rise, sneeze, snow, stop, swim, work.
Transitive verbs require a direct object.

AULA 3
	1a Questão
	
	
	
	Aspect is the expression of the temporal structure of an action or state. Aspect in English expresses ongoing actions or states with or without distinct end points. English has four aspects: simple, progressive, perfect, and perfect-progressive. Mood is the expression of modality of an action or state. Modality is the expression of possibility, necessity, and contingency. Modality can be expressed through modal verbs as well as through grammatical mood in English. Which alternative presents a WRONG declaration about the aspect or the mood?
		
	
	a) The Progressive (or continuous) expresses incomplete or ongoing actions or states at a specific time.
	
	The Perfect-Progressive Aspect expresses incomplete or ongoing actions or states that began in the past and continue to a specific time.
	 
	The indicative mood regards the action as not factually occurring in reality, but only as a result of a potential fulfillment of some condition.
	
	The Perfect Aspect expresses the consequences resulting from a previous action or state.
	
	The Simple (or Zero) Aspect does not relate to the flow of time and merely states whether or not the action occurs.
	Respondido em 09/04/2020 21:27:45
	
Explicação:
1. The Progressive (or continuous) expresses incomplete or ongoing actions or states at a specific time.
For example, the use of the progressive aspect in I am floating the book indicates that I started floating the book in the past and am still floating the book in the present and presumably the future. The formula for forming the present progressive is [simple present "to be" + present participle]. The formula for forming the past progressive is [simple past "to be" + present participle].
2. The Perfect Aspect expresses the consequences resulting from a previous action or state.
For example, the use of the perfect aspect in I have floated the book focuses on the end result of my floating the book (my having floated the book) as opposed to the process of floating the book. The formula for forming the present perfect is [simple present "to have" + past participle]. The formula for forming the past perfect is [simple past "to have" + past participle].
3. The Perfect-Progressive Aspect expresses incomplete or ongoing actions or states that began in the past and continue to a specific time.
For example, the use of the perfect-progressive aspect in I had been floating the book indicates that I started floating the book in the past and continued to float the book until a specific point in time at which I stopped floating the book. The formula for forming the present perfect-progressive is [simple present "to have" + past participle "to be" + present participle]. The formula for forming the past perfect-progressive is [simple past "to have" + past participle "to be" + present participle].
4. The Simple (or Zero) Aspect does not relate to the flow of time and merely states whether or not the action occurs.
Example: Dona works in London. [simple factual statement]

	Respondido em 09/04/2020 21:27:50
	
Explicação:
Quasi-modals are a subcategory of modal verbs. Similar to modals verbs, quasi-modal verbs are common auxiliary verbs in the English language that express modality, which is the expression of subjective attitudes and opinions including possibility, necessity, and contingency. Also referred to as semi-modal verbs, the four quasi-modal verbs in English are:
OUGHT TO¿ should, duty, obligation, advisability, desirability, likelihood, probability
You ought to stain your fence this year. (advisability)
USED TO¿ formerly, once but no longer, previously habitually
My sister used to read a book a night. (previously habitually)
WOULD RATHER ¿ preference, prefer to

Explicação:
Aspect is the expression of the temporal structure of an action or state. Aspect in English expresses ongoing actions or states with or without distinct end points. English has four aspects: simple, progressive, perfect, and perfect-progressive.
 
Tense is the expression of location in time of an action or state. Grammatical tense only roughly relates to time. English has only two verb tenses: present and past. Unlike many other widely-spoken Indo-European languages such as Portuguese, the English verb system is largely periphrastic. Periphrasis, in contrast to inflection, is "a phrase of two or more words used to express a grammatical relationship that could otherwise be expressed by the inflection of a single word." All English verb forms except for the simple present and simple past are periphrastic.
Despite popular belief, English DOES NOT have a future tense (for didactic purpose we are going to study it is a tense). Futurity is, instead, expressed through modal verbs, specifically will and shall.

MUST can be used either for near-certainty mode (He must understand it by now) or for obligatory mode (You must do that). The past tense form must have understood applies only to the near-certainly mode; expressing obligation in the past requires the lexical construction had to + verb.

This ability means satellites can (auxiliary) collect more data, more quickly, than instruments on the ground."
LEXICAL VERB OR FULL VERB
In linguistics a lexical verb or full verb is a member of an open class of verbs that includes all verbs except auxiliary verbs. Lexical verbs typically express action, state, or other predicate meaning. The verb phrase of a sentence is generally headed by a lexical verb. It is the main verb of the sentence.
Example: Charlie raises his hand.
AUXILIARY VERBS OR HELPING VERBS
Just as the name implies, helping verbs, sometimes called auxiliary verbs, help out the main verb in a sentence. They accomplish this by giving more detail to how time is portrayed in a sentence. For this reason, they are used in [verb conjugation] to show the progressive and the perfect tenses of verbs.
On their own, helping verbs don't show meaning in that they don't communicate much when they stand alone. There sole purpose to help the main verb, which provides the real meaning.
Helping verbs help explain the sometimes complicated nuances of meaning. For example, they can show expectation, probability, obligation, potential, and directions. Though this may sound complicated, it's really not. There aren't that many helping verbs in the English language. They all fall into one of two groups: primary helping verbs and modal helping verbs.

Present Tenses:
¿ The Present Simple states that a constant, unchanging, or repeated action, state, or habit exists in the present. Adding s to verbs in the third person singular is one of the most basic English grammar rules that must always be followed. For all other persons, simply use the base form of the verb.
The sun always rises in the east.
¿ The Present Progressive describes an incomplete ongoing present action that is in the middle of happening, but will finish at some point. This tense is formed by using the auxiliary verb be (am/is/are) with the present participle verb form ending in ing
Dona is studying hard for her test right now.
¿ The Present Perfect Simple is a tricky grammar topic as it can be regarded as both a present and past tense. As a present tense, it signifies that an action started in the past and continues up to present time, in which it is completed. This tense is formed by using the auxiliary verb have (have/has) with the past participle form of the verb.
Ron has worked in the same company for 20 years.
¿ The Present Perfect Progressive also describes an action that began in the past and continues up to present time, in which it is (or most of it) is completed. Moreover, it stresses that the action has been going on incessantly and may also continue into the future. This tense is formed by using the auxiliary verb have (have/has) together with the auxiliary verb been and the present participle form of the verb ending with ing.
Ron has been working on the same document without a break for hours.

· I've been to Paris (in my life, but now I'm in London, where I live)
· She has been to school today (but now she's back at home)
· They have never been to California.
Gone - We use 'gone' (often when we are talking about an action with a result in the present) to mean that the person is at the place now:
· 'Where's John?' 'He's gone to the shops' (he's at the shops now)
· Julie has gone to Mexico (now she's in Mexico)

	suppose - prefer - belong
	
	like - talk - remember
	
	believe - hate - write

	Respondido em 09/04/2020 21:36:02
	
Explicação:
 Non-Continuous Verbs
It is important to remember that NON-CONTINUOUSVERBS (STATE OR STATIVE VERBS) cannot be used in any continuous tenses. Instead of using Present Continuous with these verbs, you must use SIMPLE PRESENT.
Examples:
· She is loving this chocolate ice cream. Not Correct
· She loves this chocolate ice cream. Correct
 
Generally, continuous (or progressive) tenses are used to describe what is happening at a particular moment in time. The focus when using continuous tenses is always on an action in progress. However, there are some important exceptions to using continuous tenses. Most importantly, there are a number of common non-continuous verbs that are never or rarely used with continuous forms
