Re: The infinitive

CalifJim — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 00:51:44 GMT

Infinitive means not finite, that is, not tied to any particular tense or time. It does not mean the simple present. It isn't any tense at all.

The infinitive is formed by adding the word to in front of the dictionary form of the verb.

Infinitives: to do, to go, to see, to know

Infinitives are used after many different verbs, such as want, hope, promise, and try. want to go, hope to see, try to do, etc.

If the word to is left out, you have a "bare infinitive": do, go, see, know. Bare infinitives are used after modal verbs like can, could, will, would, may, etc.

Another name for "bare infinitive" is "base form".

I already told Mark that when he would arrive, we would go out for dinner.

Let us recast the sentence in direct speech, that is, you are speaking to Mark, "When you arrive (simple present tense is most suitable here - I wonder you can use any other tense), we shall/will go out for dinner."

When you turn that into an indirect speech, the sentence will become, " I already told Mark that when he arrived, we would go out for dinner."

future perfect

Even highly succesful businesses will have experieced growing pains in the early days.

A general truth is expressed with the aid of simple present, AFAIK.

My question is why the present perfect?

'will' serves as a modal expressing truths and facts, right?

thanks

Which classical songs can you recommend me to teach Simple Present Tense, modals, etc in A1-A2 levels? Can I get their lyrics?

In standard English have had is impossible because no simple present or present perfect form ever occurs (correctly) after wish, not even the present tense forms of modals (can, will, shall, may, must); had have is impossible because it's not even one of the tenses of English!

Re: another question about wish and modals

CalifJim — Sun, 03 Sep 2006 17:06:33 GMT

I verified the Google results on I wish I had have and I wish I have had, and I must say that I was astonished.

In standard English the only possibilities after I wish (that) (with subject pronoun or noun) are would (with the bare infinitive), could (with the bare infinitive), had (with the past participle), and the simple past tense (including the special use of were with I, he, she, etc.).

Type 1. [I wish that they] would stop yelling.
Type 2. [I wish I] could afford a car like that.
Type 3. [I wish you] had bought that car when you had the chance.
Type 4. [I wish that I] lived in Scotland. [I wish my teacher] were/was smarter.

In standard English have had is impossible because no simple present or present perfect form ever occurs (correctly) after wish, not even the present tense forms of modals (can, will, shall, may, must); had have is impossible because it's not even one of the tenses of English!

The same four possibilities go for other subjects as well of course: He wishes, You wish, They wish, The students wish, etc.

Re: Which tense to use?

CalifJim — Wed, 19 Jul 2006 07:27:03 GMT

They are very similar, and there are no grammatical rules. It's simply a matter of style. The simple present is more aloof, more a statement about a scheduled event. The present continuous is a bit warmer and spontaneous sounding.

Teacher to students: Tomorrow we study the modal verbs.
Student to another student: According to our English teacher we're studying the modal verbs tomorrow.

Re: Do you use the future tense in an adverbial clause?

CalifJim — Tue, 18 Apr 2006 02:40:39 GMT

If the time adverbial clause referes to somthing that will happen or exists in the future, you use the simple present tense, not a future tense.

You have stated a very important rule here:

Look before you leap. (not before you will leap)
He is going to the bank before he has dinner. (not before he will have dinner)
The Joneses will buy a new car before they take their vacation. (not before they will take)
Will you set the alarm before the children go to bed? (not will go to bed)

But the rule (obviously) has some exceptions. I cannot claim to have investigated every possible combination and permutation possible, but it seems to me that the prerequisites for breaking this rule are
1) the agents of the two clauses must be different
2) there must be some reaction involved, the subordinate clause showing the reaction to the action of the main clause
3) the main clause involves of modal of obligation in the present tense

The model is: You have to do X before I will do Y (or before Y will be done).

The children [must/have to] say "Please" before Auntie Em will give them candy.
We [must/has to] pay the station attendant before gas will come out of the pump.
The Smiths [must/have to] apologize before their neighbors will speak to them again.
[Do you have to / Must you] tell the children a story before they will go to bed?

These examples are a matter of speculation. I invite the other members of the forum to add to them or to find counterexamples or to revise the set of three conditions which I suggested as an explanation for such exceptions to the basic rule. Note that these exceptions always (I think) make the "will" sound like a verb of willingness. The desired effect will not take place until the required act is completed. The required act must occur before some other agent will (is willing to) fulfill his part.
I also think that all three examples I cited can also be stated in the simple present (... Auntie Em gives them ..., etc.)
