Test practice

Dear Team,

Here are some notes for you about the test that we will do on Wednesday.

  1. Remember that "until" means the future, for example: In Hungary, you can't buy cigarettes until you are 18 years old. BE CAREFUL!  after until in this type of sentence, use present simple verbs!
  2. Remember that "economic" and "economical" are very different words. ? Which one is about economics??
  3. Remember what a warning is! And remember what the verb "employ" means, for example, The Logistics Center employs 65 people. ?? Why did I write employs with an "s"??
  4. The word "consider" means to think about something carefully, for a long time. For example, when you want to buy a car, you consider it, because you have to think about all the details and look around for good prices etc etc - so you consider buying a car: in grammar, consider + -ing verb
  5. Please check the rules for future verbs, in the list of links on the right.
Finally, here is an interesting video for you! Conditionals and personality
(you need about 10 minutes to watch it)

And here's a video about the power of words. Words are powerful, don't you agree?
