Adverbelele de frecvență, adjectivul calificativ, modalele Can și May

What are Adverbs of Frequency?

An adverb of frequency describes how often an action happens. There are six main adverbs of frequency that we use in English: always, usually, often, sometimes, rarely, and never (and their synonymous).

• Always (mereu/întotdeauna);
• Never (niciodată);
• Often/Frequently (des/frecvent);
• Normally/Generally (în mod normal/în general);
• Seldom (rar/arareori);
• Occasionally (ocazional);
• Rarely/Hardly ever (rar);
• Sometimes (ocazional, câteodată);
• Usually (de obicei).

Examples:

• I always go on holiday to my grandparents.
• She never plays tennis.
• He often drinks tea in the morning.
• I rarely go to the cinema.
• He sometimes eats junk food.
• I usually go to school on time.

• To make questions about frequency, we normally use ‘How often…?’.

Examples:

• How often do you watch movies?
• How often does he play tennis?
• How often do trains arrive late?

• But it’s also possible to ask questions simply with an adverb of frequency.

Examples:

• Do you often come here?
• Does she always work so hard?
• Do they ever pay on time? (‘ever’ instead of ‘never’ for questions)

Adverbs of frequency are usually positioned as follows:

1. In affirmative sentences the place of the adverbs of frequency depends on the verb.

a) after the auxiliary verb to be and after the modal verbs (can, may, must, should, etc.)

Examples:

• He is often late for school.
• You must always do your best.
• We can usually find a seat on our train.
• They should never be rude to customers.

b) before the other verbs.

Examples:

• You always play games.

• They seldom leave their house.

c) In the case of compound tenses, the adverbs of frequency are placed between the auxiliary and the verb.

Examples:

• I have always liked them.
• She will never eat frogs.

2. Adverbs of frequency in negative sentences

- They are interspersed between the verb and the auxiliary or between the verb and the modal, as the case may be.

Examples:

I don’t always do my homework.

I can’t always help you.
I must never leave the door unlocked.

I am not always happy.

3. Adverbs of frequency in interrogative sentences

- They are interspersed between subject and verb.

Examples:

Do you often listen to music?

Can you always tell who sings?
Haven't you ever been wrong?

• In interrogative and negative sentences never becomes ever.

Examples:

Have you ever seen him?

No, I have never seen him.
                        or
No, I haven't ever seen him.
No, I have seldom/rarely seen him.

Ce sunt adverbele de frecvență?

Un adverb de frecvență descrie cât de des are loc o acțiune. Există șase adverbe principale de frecvență pe care le folosim în limba engleză: întotdeauna, de obicei, adesea, uneori, rar și niciodată (și sinonimele lor).

• Always (mereu/ întotdeauna);
• Never (niciodată);
• Often/Frequently (des/frecvent);
• Normally/Generally (în mod normal/în general);
• Seldom (rar/arareori);
• Occasionally (ocazional);
• Rarely/Hardly ever (rar);
• Sometimes (ocazional, câteodată);
• Usually (de obicei).

Exemple:

• Merg mereu în vacanță la bunici.

• Ea nu joacă niciodată tenis.

• Bea adesea ceai dimineața.

• Merg rar la cinema.

• Uneori mănâncă junk food.

• De obicei merg la școală la timp.

• Pentru a pune întrebări despre frecvență, folosim de obicei „Cât de des…?”.

Exemple:

• Cât de des vă uitați la filme?

• Cât de des joacă tenis?

• Cât de des ajung trenurile târziu?

• Dar este posibil să punem întrebări pur și simplu cu un adverb de frecvență.

Exemple:

• Vii des aici?

• Lucrează întotdeauna atât de mult?

• Plătesc vreodată la timp? („vreodată” în loc de „niciodată” pentru întrebări)

(În limba engleză) De obicei, adverbele de frecvență sunt poziționate după cum urmează:

1. În propoziții afirmative, locul adverbelor de frecvență depinde de verb.

a) după verbul auxiliar a fi și după verbele modale (can, may, must, should etc.)

Exemple:

• Întârzie adesea la școală.

• Trebuie să faci întotdeauna tot ce poți.

• De obicei putem găsi un loc în trenul nostru.

• Nu trebuie să fie niciodată nepoliticoși cu clienții.

b) înaintea celorlalte verbe.

Exemple:

• Mereu joci jocuri.

• Ei ies rar din casa lor.

c) În cazul timpurilor compuse, adverbele de frecvență se așază între auxiliar și verb:

Exemple:

• Mi-a plăcut mereu de ei.
• Nu va mânca broaște niciodată..

2.Adverbe de frecvență în propozițiile negative

- Ele se intercalează între verb și auxiliar sau între verb și modal, după caz.

Exemple:

Nu îmi fac întotdeauna temele.
Nu pot să te ajut mereu.
Nu trebuie niciodată să las ușa neîncuiată.
Nu sunt mereu fericit.

3. Adverbe de frecvență în propozițiile interogative

- Ele se intercalează între subiect și verb.

Exemple:

Asculți deseori muzică?
Totdeauna iți dai seama cine cântă?
Nu te-ai înșelat niciodată?

În propoziții interogative și negative, never devine ever.

Have you ever seen him? - L-ai văzut vreodată?
No I have never seen him – Nu, nu l-am văzut niciodată.
                                sau
No, I haven't ever seen him.
No, I have seldom/rarely seen him.

We use qualifying adjectives to describe nouns.

Most adjectives can be used:

- in front of a noun:

Examples:

You have a beautiful car.
We watch a very exciting film every week.

-after a linking verb ( a word or expression that links a subject with its predicate) like be, become, appear, remain, seem, sound, look or feel.

Examples:

Your car is beautiful.
The film looks exciting.

He looks hungry.
She remains an intelligent girl.
She remains intelligent.

Two important rules to apply:

* We always use qualifying adjectives before nouns.

* Qualifying adjectives stay the same for singular and plural nouns.

Qualifying adjectives, as their name suggests, are the most basic kind of descriptive adjectives. They function to express quality. These types of adjectives include those for describing feelings and emotions, the taste of something, and appearance.

Folosim adjective calificative pentru a descrie substantive.

Majoritatea adjectivelor pot fi folosite: (în limba engleză)

- în fața unui substantiv:

Exemple:

Ai o mașină frumoasă.

Ne uităm la un film foarte interesant în fiecare săptămână.

-după un verb de legătură precum : a fi, a deveni, a părea, a rămâne, a suna, a arăta sau a simți.

Exemple:

Mașina ta este frumoasă.

Filmul pare interesant.

Pare flămând.

Ea rămâne o fată inteligentă.

Ea rămâne inteligentă.

Două reguli importante de aplicat:

* Folosim întotdeauna adjective calificative înaintea substantivelor.

* Adjectivele calificative rămân aceleași pentru substantivele la singular și la plural.

Adjectivele calificative, după cum sugerează și numele lor, sunt cel mai elementar tip de adjective descriptive. Ele funcționează pentru a exprima calitatea. Aceste tipuri de adjective le includ pe cele care descriu sentimentele și emoțiile, gustul a ceva și aspectul.

There are many ways to describe a person. One common way to describe somebody is based on appearance. Among other things, you can describe their build, their height, their hairstyle, their health, and their complexion. 

(Există multe moduri de a descrie o persoană. Un mod comun de a descrie pe cineva se bazează pe aspect. Printre altele, puteți descrie structura, înălțimea, coafura, sănătatea și fața/tenul.)

CAN and MAY

CAN and MAY are called MODAL VERBS or simply, MODALS.

                Common characteristics of modal verbs

Modal verbs are Auxiliary verbs that provide additional and specific meaning to the main verb of the sentence.

They all have and follow specific rules in their usage.

1. They do not accept conjugation.

2. They do not need other auxiliary verbs to form the negative and the interrogative (For example, in the present tense, there is no “do / does” in the question / there is no “don’t / doesn’t” in the negative)

3. There is no “s” in the singular in the present tense.

4. Modal verbs do not have infinitives or –ing forms.

5. Modal verbs are followed by an infinitive without to.

6. Modal verbs do not have all the tenses.

7. Modal verbs use other verbs to complete the tenses (Eg: Can is completed with be able to).

-They can have more than one meaning depending on the situation.

Use of modal verbs CAN and MAY

Can and May are both modal verbs.

Their primary meanings are the following:

CAN - indicates that someone has the ability to do something (physical or mental ability = be able to do something.)

Eg: I can swim. (I am able to do this activity.)

       I can speak French. (I am capable to do this activity.)

• it is used to ask permission informally.

Eg: Can I take your pen? (Do I have your permission to take and to use your pen?)

        Can he come with me? (Do you agree/Are you OK with this proposal?)

MAY - It is used to ask for or to receive permission formally. (= be allowed to do something)

Eg: May I go outside? (Do I have your permission?)

       Now, you may turn the music louder. (You have the permission to do that.)

• It is also used when making a polite remark or suggestion.

Eg: May I say/ask/suggest etc.

May I say something to him? (I’d like to tell him something if he agrees.)

May I suggest something else? (I’d like to tell him something if he agrees.)

       …if I may…

Let me, if I may, introduce you to my parents! (I’d like to do that, please.)

So, when it comes to permission, we can use both verbs, taking into account the following difference: May makes the sentence sound more formal, while Can brings the tone of the sentence to a more casual level.

May I go to the bathroom? / Can I go to the bathroom?

May I use your pen? / Can I use your pen?

Thus, in formal situations, it would be better to use May.

As a joke, we all remember this situation:

”A young student asking this question, during his English class:

Can I go to the bathroom?

His teacher, invariably correcting him by saying,

I don’t know, can you?’’

(Of course, he can = he is capable to get to the bathroom on his own, but, in that particular situation, a more formal question had to be used, because he was asking for permission: May I go to the bathroom?)

The forms of modal verbs CAN and MAY

These 2 verbs exist primarily in the present and past tenses. If an infinitive is needed, or conjugation in any other tense, we use the appropriate form of the verbal expression [to be able to + infinitive = can / to be allowed to = may].
