  3. Review 1/2 Phonology: Vowels: exercises from /i/ to /a/ and from /u/ to /ɒ/ (lowering your jaw) from /i/ to /u/ mind driven; puff of air (see IPA chart). Where accent falls is relevant: 1) OBject (n.) – obJECT (v.), Access (n.) – aCCESS (v.), PROtest (n) – proTEST (v.) 2) if lost, stress the first syllable, you’re likely to sound right Morphology: ADJ(ective)+ ly (suffix) ADV(erb) N(oun)+ ly (suffix) ADJ V(erb) + er person/tool who/that does V

  4. Review 2/2 Syntax: Verbs: transitive Vs. intransitive (Direct object, Indirect object, Oblique object) (just hints). passive Vs. active (mentioned) AUXILIARY verb for the perfect tenses (actually, aspect) ALWAYS to have (e.g., Things have changed) Except when the verb is in the passive voice (e.g., Rules were changed) or in few constructions (e.g., are you finished?) Phrasal verbs. Verb+ ADV or Prep. Their meaning is sometimes difficult to arrive at. Pragmatics: Do not pick on students or class fellows. “See you later.” Language varies across jobs.
