Language Week 7

Question structure, answer structure and personal pronoun contractions.

What will we learn this week?

​This week we will learn all about emotions!

1. We will learn how to ask how someone is feeling;

2. We will learn how to answer that question using the correct grammar structure;

3. We will learn how to form personal pronoun contractions.

What is the question sentence structure?

​Question word + verb "to be" + personal pronoun + ?

How are you ?
How is he ?
How is she ?

What is the answer sentence structure?

​Personal pronoun + verb "to be" + adjective (emotion).

I am happy.
He is sad.
She is tired.

What to remember:

​Your sentence structure is in the simple present tense. This means that your verb "to be" indicates that the emotion that someone is feeling, is being felt NOW.

What is a personal pronoun contraction?

​A personal pronoun contraction is formed when the pronoun is combined with the verb "to be". Usually the first letter of the verb "to be" is removed and an apostrophe combines the two words together.
