What Is an Adverb?- Types of Adverbs - Examples

The 'concerned members' or the members concerned', which one is grammatical correct?

 The 'concerned members' or the members concerned', which one is grammatically correct?

Actually, the second option:'the members concerned' is correct.

In the first option, the word 'concerned' is functioning as an adjective, which may mean 'worried' or may say that the members of some organisation are feeling much concerned about something that has gone wrong.

But the word 'concerned' in the second option, is a part of the participial clause: the members who are concerned or related/responsible to some work or task already given to them

Usually, the first option is used. But a person who knows the grammar shall always use the second one.

What's the difference between “Where do you live?” and “Where do you reside?

 What's the difference between “Where do you live?” and “Where do you reside?

If we understand these two sentences “Where do you live?” and ‘Where do you reside? at the deeper level of the meanings, the speaker intends to convey to the listener, it is clear that the speaker wants to know the actual address of the listener.

Sometimes, the speaker may intend to know the permanent address of another person by asking ‘Where do you live?’

In the sentence ‘Where do you reside?’ it may be the speaker wants to know the temporary address of the person.

But grammatically, both sentences are correct.

What is the difference between “has” and “had”, and how do you know which one to use?

 What is the difference between “has” and “had”, and how do you know which one to use?

If we talk about; has/have and ‘had’, these three may be used as primary verbs when they show possession in sentences. Has and have are used in the present time and had is used in the past.

For example,

I have a car. Here the use of ‘have shows that ‘I’ possess a car. Similarly, you may say:

We have a car, They have a big house to live in. The pronouns ‘he, she, it’ and the third person singular nouns may take ‘has’ as the primary verb to show possession.

But ‘had’ is used as the primary verb in the past situation with all types of subjects.

I had a car, but now i have sold it.

Primary verbs are used alone without any other verb.

If the sentence shows some action, then, has/have, and had been used in several tenses like Present Perfect Tense, Future Perfect Tense, Past Perfect Tense, Present Perfect Continuous Tense, Past Perfect Continuous Tense, and Future Perfect Continuous Tense.

Examples: Here ‘has/have and had’ are used as ‘helping verbs’.

I have done my work. (Present Perfect Tense)

She has finished eating her food. (Present Perfect Tense)

The patient had died before he was shifted to a hospital. (Past Perfect Tense)

She will have cooked food when the guests reach home tomorrow. (Future Perfect Tense)

It has been raining since morning. (Present Perfect Continuous Tense)

It had been raining since morning when I reached home yesterday. (Past Perfect Continuous Tense)

It will have been raining since morning when the guests reach home tomorrow. (Future Perfect Continuous Tense)

To make passive constructions. we also use has/have and had as helping verbs.
