I hate people who are not polite and not I'm hating people....

on the other hand did I learn that it is correct to say
I'm studiing english - also if not exactly at this moment.

state verbs

Hi, 'hate' and 'love' are examples of state verbs. State verbs should not take 'ing'. McDonalds use 'I'm loving it', but this is not correct grammar.

I think it's very good~

Which are the tenses verbs

Which are the tenses verbs in these sentenses: 1 8 and 9?
how and when use them? I have many doubts. Thank you for all.

Wed, 08/27/2008 - 06:51 — Chris McCarthy

Hi Nori.

1 = present perfect continuous tense

8 = future perfect tense

9= would+have+past participle

HELLO

WHY IT IS HIS CAR 'WAS STOLLEN' FROM OUTSIDE HIS OFFICE?,WHY NOT HIS CAR 'HAS STOLLEN'?

REPLY PLEASE
THANK YOU

Thu, 03/26/2009 - 11:15 — grivna

Hello, gnbhat

The car was stolen, because someone has stolen it (it is a very bad situation).
The car cannot steal anything.

This is a passive form of the verb.

I water flower. Flowers are watered by me.
Thief stole the car. The car was stolen by thief.

Hope it helps. Have a nice day!
