Objective(s) By the end of this lesson the student will be able to:
1. define the term 'verb'
2. differentiate between action and linking verbs.
3. distinguish between active and passive voice. Pre-Class Assignment: Resources/Equipment/Time Required: Outline: The verb is the fourth of the eight parts of speech. Just for the record, here are all eight: noun, pronoun, adjective, verb, adverb, preposition, conjunction, and interjection. Verbs can be used in different ways. They can be action or linking. They can be in active or passive voice … where do we begin?
First, let's start with a basic definition: A verb is a word that expresses action, makes a statement, or links relationships.
Action
verbs do just that. They demonstrate action. Examples: Jim hit the ball. Susie cooked spaghetti. Joey drove the tractor.
Linking verbs make statements OR they express links and relationships. Examples, statements: She is a good girl.

47. GMAT Grammar
This is the part of grammar that the GMAT concentrates on. Faulty usage. Note,ironically, third person singular verbs often end in s or es
http://www.majon.com/testprep/strat-gmatg.html
The field of grammar is huge and complextomes have been written on the subject. This complexity should be no surprise since grammar deals with the process of communication.
GMAT grammar tests only a small part of standard written English. Grammar can be divided into two parts: Mechanics and Usage.
Mechanics concerns punctuation, capitalization, etc. It is not tested on the GMAT nearly as often as is usage. So don't spend too much time worrying whether the comma is in the right place or whether a particular word should be capitalized.
Usage concerns how we choose our words and how we express our thoughts: in other words, are the connections between the words in a sentence logically sound, and are they expressed in a way that conforms to standard idiom? This is the part of grammar that the GMAT concentrates on. Six major categories of usage are tested:
Pronoun Errors
Subject-Verb Agreement
Misplaced Modifiers
Faulty Parallelism
Faulty Verb Tense
Faulty Idiom PRONOUN ERRORS
A pronoun is a word that stands for a noun, known as the antecedent of the pronoun. The key point for the use of pronouns is this: pronouns must agree with their antecedents in both number (singular or plural) and person (first, second, or third).
Example: Steve has yet to receive his degree.

A literate person is a lettered person.
An illiterate person is a person without letters.
Illiterate can mean unable to read and write, or it can mean uneducated
Literate can mean able to read and write, or it can mean educated
The association of education with reading and writing is as old as civilisation. Gordon Childe, in What Happened in History says that writing was the origin of civilisation. History is that part of human past which was recorded in writing.
Literacy can mean the ability to read and write, or the possession of other skills . You can say, for example, that someone is computer literate.
Here is one attempt to list types of literacy:
  • Linguistic literacy - being able to understand, speak, write and read a language, correctly following its rules of grammar , sentence construction etc.

1. Prooorfead carefully!! (avioD typos, speling errrors etc.) 2. Learn how to type umlauts 3. Avoid translating from English to German. This is often a lot more work than just coming up with an essay in German, and yet generally produces substantially lower grades, because what you write becomes very hard to understand. Students are often intimidated by the prospect of trying to "think in German," but you absolutely have to do that to write a good essay, and it's easier than you think. Click here for a procedure for how to begin doing this step-by-step, using the German you've learned as sort of a construction kit where you begin with really basic phrases and then expand and connect them using what you learned about e.g. adjectives, conjunctions and prepositions. 4. Be careful when using the dictionary! Use the information your dictionary provides to help you choose among the alternative German equivalents for an English term, and beware of translating idiomatic expressions literally (i.e. expressions like "fed up," "sick of," "to bite the dust," "this rules," "blow up" etc.). An especially serious mistake is picking the wrong parts of speech, e.g. looking up a noun when you want a verb or an adjective, or vice versa.
