teacher's teaching...anak kak tuh kena
read English a lot...lepas Isyak I post ye...
insyallah..

'an' tu dia main letak je kat sumer yg mula ngan a, e, i, o, u.  

an= mesti with words starting with the vowel sounds...bukan vowel a, e, i, o, u...

selalu ramai yg confuse dgn nih...

>> We usually use "a" before words that begin with "h":

a history
a huge monster
a heavenly dessert
a house

        >> But there are some exceptions. If the "h" is not pronounced, we use "an":

an hour
an heir
an honor
an honest man

        >> We never use "a" or "an" with UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS.

'has been' dia confius ngan past tense...

has been nih past participle...

biasanya nak membezakan , usually
past tense ada dinyatakan masa...cam
yesterday, just now etc..

stated....

Using the Past Participle



All verbs have four principal parts:
the base form,
the past form,
the present participle and
the past participle.

We use the past participle in the following ways:

           Participial phrases

                   Irritated by the inefficiency, the boss yelled at the workers.

                   Based on the results of the tests, we changed our plan.

                   Raised in Vermont, I was used to cold winters.



          Participial adjectives

                   The bored students sat quietly through the lecture.

                   The teacher was determined to finish the chapter.

                   I was pleased to see that the boss liked my idea.

                  

          With the perfect tenses

                   I've stayed at the hotel several times.

                   Peter hadn't earned enough money to buy a car yet.



          With the passive voice

                   The store was closed by the time we got there.

                    Electrical charge is carried by subatomic particles.            

                   I've been fired and I don't know what I'm going to do.

                    When sodium and chlorine meet, an electron is exchanged
                    and each atom ends up with a filled electron shell. (filled is
                    a participial adjective)
