SCHEDA 1:
1. LE FORME DELLA FRASE
2. PRONOMI PERSONALI SOGGETTO
3. PRESENTE DI “TO BE” e TO HAVEGOT
1. LE FORME DELLA FRASE
In inglese come in italiano, la comunicazione avviene attraverso la produzione, scritta e/o orale, di
frasi:
1) AFFERMATIVE
2) NEGATIVE
3) INTERROGATIVE
In inglese una frase affermativa si costruisce seguendo questo schema:
SOGGETTO + VERBO + COMPLEMENTO
In inglese una frase negativa si costruisce seguendo questo schema:
SOGGETTO + VERBO + NOT + COMPLEMENTO
In inglese una frase interrogativa si costruisce seguendo questo schema:
VERBO + SOGGETTO + COMPLEMENTO ?
N.B. In inglese il soggetto della frase deve essere sempre espresso e non può essere sottinteso
(come invece avviene spesso in italiano)
A questo punto è bene ripassare quali siano, in inglese, i pronomi personali soggetto!
