What are grammatical forms?

We can identify grammatical forms in parts of speech,


grammatical structures and words that contain prefixes
and suffixes.
Nine parts of speech in English
• Nouns
• Verbs
• Adjectives
• Adverbs
• Determiners
• Prepositions
• Pronouns
• Conjunctions
• Exclamations
We also see different grammatical
forms in a grammatical structure.
• Past continuous: subject + past tense of verb to be + -
ing form of verb e.g. he was running

• Passive voice: subject + to be + past participle (+by


+agent)
e.g. the road was built (by the company)
What are grammatical uses?

Grammatical uses refer to how grammatical


structures are used to convey (or communicate)
meaning.
Many grammatical forms have more
than one use. Here are some
examples:
Present Simple:
• To describe a present state. E.g. I live in London.
• To describe actions or situations…..
• To refer to the future…..
• To tell a story
