2. INVITATION AND EXCUSES

Attention

a) Before inviting someone to do something, we

must ask whether he/she is free or not and we can

say:


9/62

ASKING ANSWERING

Are you free tonight?next Thursday?

Yes, I am. Why?No, Im not. Im going to a show

Are you busy on Saturday?

tomorrow night?

Not, Im not. Why?

Yes I am, Im visiting my grandmother

b) To invite someone to do something we can say:

ASKING ANSWERING

Would you like to

go out for dinner?

go to the Cinema?

come to my house?

Yes,Id love toThat would be nice

c) Asking for and giving suggestion to someone we can say:

ASKING ANSWERING

Where shall we

go?

meet?

have dinner?

Lets

Why dont we

Go toMeet at

Have dinner at

My houseThe Hilton

MPS CafWhat about

How about

Going toMeeting atHaving dinner at

my house?The Hilton?MPS Caf?

Please come to my house sometime is a common form of invitation for a

personal visit. A polite, noncommittal answer is Thank you; I would be happy to come

sometime. Such an exchange of courtesies has no actual meaning. To make an

invitation sound genuine one must ask for a definite commitment as the day and time.

Adding some explanation like My parents want very much tp meet you gives a

touch of warmth and genuineness to an invitation.

In some cases, it is good to ask first Are you busy at such-and-such at time

before extending and invitation for that time.

Stop in is a friendly, colloquial expression similar to Drop inor Come over.

You are cordially invitedis the most formal style of invitation.

When you invite people to your home, make it clear if you intend to serve a meal. If

you are not sure what they can eat (because of health, individual taste, religious taboos)

it is a good idea to ask them about you intend to serve, when they accept the invitation.


10/62

In accepting an invitation, first express invitation, then be sure to make certain of

the exact time and place; and if it is too be a formal party, what kind of clothes you are

expected to wear.

If you decline an invitation you must make your rejection of it absolutely clear, and

it is customary to give a polite reason for nit accepting.

You must never an invitation unless you are certain you can keep your promise. A

very common expression of invitation is Would you like to ?

Play Go/Come Go toTennis swimming a partyFootball dancing a discoChess bowling a playCards shopping the theatre

10. COMPARING THINGS

47


48/62

Attention

a) Study this examples:

Lets go by car. Its cheaper.Dont go by train. Its more expensive.

Cheaperand more expensive are comparative forms.We use comparative forms to compare two differentthings

After comparatives we use than:

Its cheaperto go by carthan to go by train.

b) We use er for the comparative of short adjectives and adverbs:cheap/cheaper hard/harder large/larger thin/thinner

This jacket is too small. I need a largersize

Ann works harderthan most of her friends

c) We use more (not er) for other two-syllable adjectives and longer adjectives:more modern more serious more comfortable

More expensive hotels are usually more comfortable than cheaperones.

Her illness was more serious than we first thought.

We also use more for adverbs that end inly.more slowly more seriously more quietly more carefully

d) To compare more than two things we use superlative forms.We use theest orthe most to form the superlative and adjectives and adverbs. Ingeneral we use the est for shorter words and themost for longer words. Forexample:

long/the longest hot/the hottest easy/the easier but the most famous the most boring the most difficult

Yesterday was the hottestday of the year

That was the most boring movie Ive ever seen.We sometimes use most+ adjective (without the) to mean very:

The book you lent me was most interesting. (=very interesting)

Thank you for the money. It was most generous of you. (=very generous)

e) To compare two similar things, we use as + adjective + asStudy this example situation:

48

Joe, Henry, Arthur, Ivan are all millionairesThey are all very rich. Joe has $10 million,Henry has $6 million, Arthur has $2 million,Ivan has $ 2 million. So:

Henry is richHe is richer than ArthurBut Joe is the richest of themAnd Arthur is as rich as Ivan


49/62

We use as as in positive sentences and in questions

Im sorry Im late. I got here as fast as I could

Theres plenty of food, so eat as much as you like

John is as strong as ArnoldWe also say twice as as, three times as as,etc.

Gasoline is twice as expensive as it was a few years ago.

Their house is about three times as big as ours

a) The position ofenough

Enough goes after adjectives and adverbs:

He didnt get the job because he wasnt experience enough. (not enoughexperience)

You wont pass the exam if you dont work hard enough.

She cant get married yet. Shes not old enough.

Enough goes before nouns:

He didnt get the job because he didnt have enough experience. (notexperienced enough)

Id like to take a vacation, but I dont have enough money.

Some of us had to sit on the floor because there werent enough chairs

You can also use enough alone (without a noun):

enough and too. So we say enough money to do something, old enough to do

something, too young to do something, etc.:

She spoke too quicklyfor us tounderstand.

12. DESCRIBING CHANGES

Attention

58


59/62

a)We use used towith the infinitive (used to do/ used to smoke etc.) to say that

something regularly happened in the past but no longer happens:

I used to play tennis a lot, but now Im too lazy. Do you go to the cinema very often? Not now, but I used to.

Jack used to travel a lot. These days he doesnt go away very often. We alsouse used to for past situations (which no longer exist):

We used to live in a small village but now we lived in the city.

This building is now a toy shop. It used to be a restaurant.

Do you see that hill over there? There used to be a castle on that hill.

Ive started drinking beer recently. I never used to like it before.

Betty used to have long hair but she had it cut short last month.

b)Used to + infinitive is always past. There is no present. You cannot say I use to to.For the present, use the present simple (I do). Compare the present and past:

Past He used to smoke We used to live There used to be

Present He smokes We live There is

c)The normal question form is did use to?:Didyou use to eata lot of sweets when you were a child?

The negative form is didnt use to (or used not to)Jack didnt use to go out very often until he met Jill.

d) 'Used to' or 'Use To' VS Would

I was asked on Pal Talk recently how to use used to and would.

If we say something used to happen we are talking about repeated events and actions inthe past, usually things that happened a long time ago and are now finished.

To express this we can use eitherused to orwould.

When I was young Iused to playwith my dolls. = When I was young Iwouldplaywith my dolls.

Of course I no longer play with dolls!

We used to go outa lot in the summer.

Implies that we no longer go out much.

If you want to talk about repeated states or habits in the past, you must use used to, youcannot use would : :

59


60/62

My dogused to barkat cats. Iused to smoke. Iused to be an administrative assistant. Iused to live in England.

You should use 'use to' without a d in sentences when it follows 'did' or 'didn't' (don't

worry too much about this because lots of people get it wrong). The question form is Didyou use to?'. When asking a closed question you put did/didn't in front of the subjectfollowed by use to, you cannot use would.

Didyouuse to go out with my sister? Didtheyuse to own the company? Didn'twe use to go to the same school?

Also when asking questions about states in the past you cannot use would.

What sort of things didyouuse to like when you were young?

. In the negative you cannot use would without a change in meaning.

Ididn't use to play with my dolls.

If I said I wouldn't play with my dolls. It would mean I refused to play with my dolls.

We didn't use to go out much in the winter months.

If I said we wouldn't go out much. It would mean we refused to go out much.

!Note - The general rule is when there is did or didn't in the sentence, we say use to

(without d) when there is no did or didn't in the sentence, we say used to (with d).

There is also a difference between "used to do something and to be used to something".

Used to

Used to do

We use 'used to' for something that happened regularly in the past but no longerhappens.

I used to smoke a packet a day but I stopped two years ago.

Ben used to travel a lot in his job but now, since his promotion, he doesn't. I used to drive to work but now I take the bus.

We also use it for something that was true but no longer is.

There used to be a cinema in the town but now there isn't. She used to have really long hair but she's had it all cut off. I didn't use to like him but now I do.

61/62

'Used to do' is different from 'to be used to doing' and 'to get used to doing', to be usedto doing

We use 'to be used to doing' to say that something is normal, not unusual.

I'm used to living on my own. I've done it for quite a long time. Hans has lived in England for over a year so he is used to driving on the left now. They've always lived in hot countries so they aren't used to the cold weather

here.

We use 'to get used to doing' to talk about the process of something becomingnormal for us.

I didn't understand the accent when I first moved here but I quickly got used to it. She has started working nights and is still getting used to sleeping during the

day. I have always lived in the country but now I'm beginning to get used to living in

the city.
