THE FAMILY
The family is very important for our life. It is another reason for our existence.
The family is a large group of people, father, mother, children, siblings, grandparents, uncles, some integrate our special friends and we grant more within our family, when we are fortunate to learn to live to love our husbands family also consider them family. The family is a refuge for many people are the ones who support you, who you protejen, those whom you want to help and ask God for them, as they for you, finally the family is the most valuable thing we have, we have as gift at birth, many, few, but in the end a number that is growing from people who want a lot.
THE PERSONALITY
Popularly personality is understood as the set of attitudes and behavioral style of a person, that is all that set of psychological characteristics that characterize a person and allow differentiation among the others. While the popular notion is largely corresponds to the truth, is actually quite complex concept that psychology has undertaken approached from different points of view.
THE PREPOSITION
The preposition is the kind of word that introduces invariably called prepositional phrase. Prepositions usually have the function of introducing accompanying supplements and sometimes mandatory ligand name or noun phrase that immediately precede a verb or another name as above. In some languages the prepositions can not lead a prepositional phrase, as in English, where even may appear at the end of the sentence.
SIMPLE PRESENT
El Presente Simple es un tiempo verbal que se utiliza para describir acciones habituales que suceden con cierta frecuencia y no hace referencia a si está ocurriendo en el momento actual.
I play tennis. Yo juego al tenis.
(Hace mención de un deporte que realizo cotidianamente y que no necesariamente lo estoy jugando en este momento).He works in an office. Él trabaja en una oficina.
(Se refiere al trabajo que desarrolla una persona frecuentemente). They travel to Madrid. Ellos viajan a Madrid.
(Habla de un viaje que se repite a diario, aunque el sujeto no lo esté realizando ahora).
PAST PROGRESSIVE
The PAST PROGRESSIVE TENSE indicates continuing action, something that was happening, going on, at some point in the past. This tense is formed with the helping "to be" verb, in the past tense, plus the present participle of the verb (with an -ing ending):
- I was riding my bike all day yesterday.
- Joel was being a terrible role model for his younger brother.
The past progressive indicates a limited duration of time and is thus a convenient way to indicate that something took place (in the simple past) while something else was happening:
- Carlos lost his watch while he was running.
PRESENT PROGRESSIVE
The Present Progressive or Continuous is used in English to discuss ongoing situations that have started but have not yet come to an end: It's raining (It's raining). This verb is often used to describe situations that we have before our eyes and we know that adults develop as we speak. Therefore, very often the Present Progressive is accompanied by adverbs or adverbial expressions as now, at the moment, at present, currently etc.
SIMPLE PAST
Simple Past tense is used to describe actions that have happened at an earlier time and have already completed, for example:
She cleaned her house. She cleaned her house.
I broke the window. I broke the window.
FUTURE WITH WILL
Will is an auxiliary we use to indicate a secure future, as opposed to "going to" is used only to express a future intention.
In simple words we use will for something that if or when we will perform. EXAMPLE:
I read this article for 5 minutes
I will read this article for 5 minutes
FUTURE WITH GOING TO
El tiempo Future (going to) responde a la pregunta: What is going to happen? = ¿Qué va a pasar? o What is going to be happening? = ¿Qué va a estar pasando?. Se forma: Sujeto + am/is/are + going to + verbo en presente (I am going to work). Sujeto + am/is/are + going to + be + verbo en progresivo (I am going to be working)
PRESENT PERFECT
The present perfect is formed by combining the auxiliary verb "has" or "have" with the past participle.
I have studied.
He has written a letter to María.
We have been stranded for six days.
PAST PERFECT
The past perfect is formed by combining the auxiliary verb "had" with the past participle.
I had studied.
He had written a letter to María.
We had been stranded for six days.
SHOULD
Usamos 'should' para expresar grado de posibilidad o probabilidad, así como también para obligación débil. Significa: debería, tendría que. I should study.
I should - debería / tendría que
Affirmative
