Good to know...

Do you know about word order in English? Can you talk about place and time like a native speaker? 

This is where this flashcard will come in handy!

Today you will learn:

- To use verb + object sentences for place and time like a pro 

- The mistakes to avoid 

- …and some interesting trivia!

Don't forget!

Verb + object + time / place word

=> Do + the washing up + now

=> Put + the shopping + over there

=> (verbs are being/doing words)

Explanations & Examples

Verb + Object Sentences

=> Many sentences in English are Subject + Verb + Object sentences => he eats a sandwich / they like football.

=> Sometimes we don't include a subject though=>

Paint a picture.

Sit on a chair.

Come back here!

=> In these sentences we understand the subject is probably the person being spoken to.

=> There are many examples of sentences like these that are used for place and time, and sometimes we can just add the information on:

Paint a picture here.

Sit on that chair there.

Come back here now!

Go again tomorrow.

Save time by doing it immediately.

Put the bag there.

Do it another time.

Look out!

LOOK OUT! It is more common to use verb + object sentences in spoken than written English.

I will do it another time => better to add a subject (I) in written English.

Do it another time => is okay in spoken English.
