  1. What are the eight parts of speech in English?

    Noun, Pronoun, Verb, Adjective, Adverb, Preposition, Conjunction, and Interjection.

  2. What is a noun, and what are its main types?

    A noun names a person, place, thing, or idea. Main types: proper, common, collective, abstract, concrete, countable, and uncountable.

  3. What is the difference between an adjective and an adverb?

    An adjective modifies a noun or pronoun (e.g., 'a quick runner'); an adverb modifies a verb, adjective, or another adverb (e.g., 'runs quickly').

  4. What is a conjunction, and name the three types.

    A conjunction joins words, phrases, or clauses. Types: coordinating (and, but, or), subordinating (because, although, if), and correlative (either...or, neither...nor).

  5. What is an interjection? Give two examples.

    An interjection is a word expressing sudden emotion, standing apart grammatically. Examples: 'Wow!', 'Alas!'.

  6. What are the three main tenses, and how many forms does each have?

    Present, Past, and Future. Each has four forms: Simple, Continuous (Progressive), Perfect, and Perfect Continuous — twelve tenses in total.

  7. What is the structure of the Present Perfect tense?

    Subject + has/have + past participle (V3). Example: 'She has finished the work.'

  8. What is the structure of the Past Continuous tense?

    Subject + was/were + verb-ing. Example: 'They were playing cricket.'

  9. What is the structure of the Future Perfect tense?

    Subject + will have + past participle (V3). Example: 'I will have completed the course by June.'

  10. When is the Simple Present tense used?

    For habitual actions, universal truths, and permanent situations. Example: 'The sun rises in the east.'

  11. What is the structure of the Present Perfect Continuous tense?

    Subject + has/have + been + verb-ing. Example: 'He has been studying for two hours.'

  12. What is the basic rule of subject-verb agreement?

    A singular subject takes a singular verb, and a plural subject takes a plural verb. Example: 'He writes' vs. 'They write.'

  13. In subject-verb agreement, what verb form do two subjects joined by 'and' take?

    Usually a plural verb. Example: 'Ali and Sara are friends.' (Exception: when they refer to one idea/person, e.g., 'Bread and butter is my breakfast.')

  14. With subjects joined by 'either...or' or 'neither...nor', which subject decides the verb?

    The verb agrees with the subject nearer to it. Example: 'Neither the boys nor the teacher was present.'

  15. What verb form do 'each', 'every', 'everyone', and 'nobody' take?

    A singular verb. Example: 'Everyone has arrived.' / 'Each of the students is ready.'

  16. Do collective nouns like 'team' or 'committee' take singular or plural verbs?

    Singular when acting as one unit ('The team is winning'); plural when members act individually ('The team are arguing among themselves').

  17. What is a preposition? Give three examples.

    A word that shows the relationship of a noun/pronoun to another word, usually indicating place, time, or direction. Examples: in, on, at, by, under, between.

  18. What is the difference between 'in', 'on', and 'at' for time?

    'At' for precise times (at 5 PM), 'on' for days/dates (on Monday), 'in' for months, years, and longer periods (in June, in 2026).

  19. What are the three articles in English, and which are definite vs. indefinite?

    'A' and 'an' are indefinite articles; 'the' is the definite article.

  20. When do you use 'a' versus 'an'?

    Use 'a' before a consonant sound (a book, a university) and 'an' before a vowel sound (an apple, an hour).

  2. What is the difference between 'between' and 'among'?

    'Between' is used for two persons/things; 'among' is used for more than two. Example: 'between you and me' vs. 'among the students.'

  3. What is the difference between active and passive voice?

    In active voice the subject performs the action ('The cat caught the mouse'); in passive voice the subject receives the action ('The mouse was caught by the cat').

  4. What is the general rule for changing active voice to passive voice?

    The object becomes the subject, the verb changes to the appropriate form of 'be' + past participle, and the subject becomes the agent introduced by 'by'.

  5. How is the passive voice of the Simple Present formed?

    is/am/are + past participle. Example: Active 'She writes a letter' → Passive 'A letter is written by her.'

  6. How is the passive voice of the Simple Past formed?

    was/were + past participle. Example: Active 'He built a house' → Passive 'A house was built by him.'

  7. How is the passive voice of a modal verb (e.g., 'can', 'must') formed?

    modal + be + past participle. Example: 'You must complete the task' → 'The task must be completed by you.'

  8. What is the difference between direct and indirect speech?

    Direct speech quotes the exact words within quotation marks ('He said, "I am tired"'); indirect (reported) speech reports the meaning without quotes ('He said that he was tired').

  9. In indirect speech, how does the tense change when the reporting verb is in the past?

    The tense is shifted back (backshift): present becomes past, past becomes past perfect, will becomes would, can becomes could, may becomes might.

  10. How do pronouns change when converting direct to indirect speech?

    Pronouns change according to the speaker/listener: first person to match the subject of the reporting verb, second person to match the object, and third person stays the same.

  11. How are time and place words changed in indirect speech?

    now→then, today→that day, tomorrow→the next day, yesterday→the previous day, here→there, this→that, ago→before.

  12. How is a question reported in indirect speech?

    Use 'asked'; for yes/no questions add 'if/whether', for wh-questions keep the wh-word, and change word order to a statement (no question mark). Example: 'He asked if I was coming.'

  13. What is a synonym? Give a synonym for 'brave'.

    A synonym is a word with the same or nearly the same meaning as another. A synonym for 'brave' is 'courageous' (also valiant, bold).
