GRAMMAR 1
CONTENT: GERUNDS
The gerund looks exactly the same as a present participle, but it is useful to
understand the difference between the two. The gerund always has the same
function as a noun (although it looks like a verb).


THE GERUND AS THE SUBJECT OF THE SENTENCE
EXAMPLES

 Eating people is wrong.
 Hunting tigers is dangerous.
 Flying makes me nervous.
 Brushing your teeth is important.
 Smoking causes lung cancer.
THE GERUND AS THE COMPLEMENT OF THE VERB 'TO BE'
EXAMPLES

 One of his duties is attending meetings.
 One of life's pleasures is having breakfast in bed.
THE GERUND AFTER PREPOSITIONS
The gerund must be used when a verb comes after a preposition. This is also
true of certain expressions ending in a preposition, for example: the expressions in
spite of & there's no point in.
EXAMPLES

 Can you sneeze without opening your mouth?
 She is good at painting.
 She avoided him by walking on the opposite side of the road.
 We arrived in Madrid after driving all night.


 My father decided against postponing his trip to Hungary.
 There's no point in waiting.
 In spite of missing the train, we arrived on time.
THE GERUND AFTER PHRASAL VERBS
Phrasal verbs are composed of a verb + preposition or adverb.
EXAMPLES

 When will you give up smoking?
 She always puts off going to the dentist.
 He kept on asking for money.
 Jim ended up buying a new TV after his old one broke.
There are some phrasal verbs that include the word "to" as a preposition for
example to look forward to, to take to, to be accustomed to, to get around to, & to
be used to. It is important to recognize that the word "to" is a preposition in these
cases because it must be followed by a gerund. It is not part of the infinitive form

of the verb. You can check whether "to" is a preposition or part of the infinitive. If
you can put the pronoun "it" after the word "to" and form a meaningful sentence,
then the word "to" is a preposition and must be followed by a gerund.
EXAMPLES

 I look forward to hearing from you soon.
 I look forward to it.
 I am used to waiting for buses.


 I am used to it.
 She didn't really take to studying English.
 She didn't really take to it.
 When will you get around to mowing the grass?
 When will you get around to it?
THE GERUND IN COMPOUND NOUNS
In compound nouns using the gerund, it is clear that the meaning is that of a
noun, not of a continuous verb. For example, with the word "swimming pool" it is
a pool for swimming in, it is not a pool that is swimming.
EXAMPLES

 I am giving Sally a driving lesson.
 They have a swimming pool in their back yard.
 I bought some new running shoes.
THE GERUND AFTER SOME EXPRESSIONS
The gerund is necessary after the expressions can't help, can't stand, to be
worth, & it's no use.
EXAMPLES

 She couldn't help falling in love with him.

 I can't stand being stuck in traffic jams.
 It's no use trying to escape.


 It might be worth phoning the station to check the time of the train.

GRAMMAR 2
CONTENT: STATE VERBS
Some verbs are not usually used in the continuous form, even when we are
talking about temporary situations or states. These are called state verbs.


So, we say I’m sorry, I don’t understand rather than I’m not understanding.
1. State verbs are often verbs connected with thinking and opinions.
Examples:
She doesn’t know what to do NOT She isn’t knowing what to do.
Do you agree with me?
I don’t recognize it, do you?
Other verbs in this group include: believe, doubt, guess, imagine, mean, remember,
think
2. Other state verbs are connected with feelings and emotions.
Examples:
I like this song. Who sings it? NOT I’m liking this song.
What do you want to do now?
I hate my new boss!
Other state verbs in this group include: dislike, love, prefer, want, wish
Exception: Although ‘enjoy’ is a verb of emotion, it is used in the continuous tense:
I’m enjoying the party.
3. ‘see’, ‘hear’, ‘taste’, ‘smell’, ‘feel’ are verbs that describe senses.
These verbs aren’t usually used in continuous forms.
Examples:
It smells of smoke in here NOT It’s smelling of smoke in here.
I can’t see anything. It’s too dark.

4. State verbs describe things that are not actions.
Example 1:
He smells of fish.
He’s smelling the fish.
The second sentence is an action – not a state. The man wants to know if the fish is
OK to eat.
Example 2:
I think we should go to Croatia for our holiday this year.
Sorry, what did you say? I was thinking about my holiday.
The first sentence is an opinion but the second sentence is an action.

Batik Skirts in the South

Although there is disagreement on the origins of batik, most agree the
colorful cloth reached Java in Indonesia by the 7th century. Its production
technique spread throughout the island, then over the centuries batik spread to
Sumatra and north into Malaysia’s coastal areas and southern Thailand.
Javanese batik displays the peoples’ view of the universe. Three traditional,
easy-to-obtain colors are used - indigo, brown, and white - which represent the
three major Hindu Gods: Brahma, Vishnu and Siva. Nobility have special patterns,
with wider stripes or wavy lines indicating a higher rank.


Sumatra’s batik dates to the 13th century. Sumatra’s ethnic groups have their
own styles of batik, which use clay for the dye. Other Indonesian islands have
batik similar to those found in Java and Sumatra.
The first introduction of Malaysian batik is in the 17th century. Today,
tourists can find Malaysian batik on the east coast in Johor, Kelantan, Terengganu
and Pahang. Motifs tend to be of plants but geometric shapes as human and animal
images are taboo.
Batik finally made its way to southern Thailand, and locals still wear it as
their daily clothes or as uniforms at work. Themes vary from the islands landscape
and important parts of island culture such as coconut shells, palm trees, tropical
flowers, and fishing boats. Batik, has made a significant contribution to
Singapore’s arts scene, with traditional and contemporary presentations.
So critical is batik to the Javanese and all of Indonesia that in 2009,
UNESCO designated Indonesian batik as a Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible
Heritage of Humanity.
