    Study Notes

    Lesson Objectives

    • Recognize different sentence patterns in English.
    • Determine the sentence pattern of provided sentences.
    • Compose meaningful sentences using various sentence patterns.

    Lesson Agenda

    • Introduction to basic sentence patterns.
    • Discussion of the three main elements: subject, verb, and object.
    • Practice through a simple quiz on grammar skills.

    Sentence Structure

    • Basic structure: subject + verb + object.
    • Essential for understanding the topic, action, and effect within a sentence.
    • A sentence lacking subject or verb may not be fully comprehensible.

    Subject

    • A subject performs the action or experiences a state of being.
    • Example: In "Rosa and Samira listened attentively," "Rosa and Samira" are the subjects.

    Verb

    • A verb expresses action or a state of being related to the subject.
    • Example: In the same sentence, "listened" is the action verb performed by the subjects.

    Basic Sentence Patterns

    • Three types of sentences:
      • Subject + Linking Verb + Complement (S - LV - C)
      • Subject + Intransitive Verb (S - IV)
      • Subject + Transitive Verb + Direct Object (S - TV - DO)

    S - LV - C Pattern

    • Sequence: Subject, Linking Verb, Complement.
    • Linking verbs connect the subject to the complement, which can be a noun, pronoun, or adjective.
    • Examples:
      • "Rosa is smart." (S: Rosa, LV: is, C: smart)
      • "The sea remains silent." (S: sea, LV: remains, C: silent)

    Common Linking Verbs

    • Forms of "to be": is, am, are, was, were, etc.
    • "To become" and "to seem" also function as linking verbs.

    S - IV Pattern

    • Sequence: Subject + Intransitive Verb.
    • Intransitive verbs do not require a direct object.
    • Examples:
      • "The vase fell." (S: vase, IV: fell)
      • "Grandma prays." (S: Grandma, IV: prays)

    S - TV - DO Pattern

    • Sequence: Subject + Transitive Verb + Direct Object.
    • A transitive verb requires a direct object that receives the action.
    • Examples:
      • "Rosa ate the cake." (S: Rosa, TV: ate, DO: cake)
      • "He gave me a small present." (S: He, TV: gave, DO: present)
