  • This video explains how to distinguish things that partly share the same form with the past tenses: the subjunctive mood, modals, and passive voice. Simply put, the subjunctive mood accompanies hint words such as "if, as if, as though, imagine, etc." near the simple past tense or the past perfect tense. The past form of modals do not talk about the past time when it talks about possibility, and the P.P form in the passive voice has nothing to do with the past.

    Hi, Mr. Shakespeare, I would like to make a suggestion, we as Latin American teachers are learning from your classes but you go through the slides very quickly and one is a little lost. I would appreciate it if you delay just a little longer. Thank you.

    Wow ! Thanks for it, you got a subscriber.
    But At 10:32 , I have a doubt ....
    Shouldn't it be like "were I to have the money, I would buy.... " or Is that one correct too ?
    Could you please clarify it to me
    Thanks... ¡!¡

    “Hope this find you well” and “Hope this finds you well”, which one is correct? Both are used but the latter is more commonly used.

    The safe showed no sign of having been touched.Could we use being touched in place of having been touched?kindly clear my doubt.I will be highly thankful to you sir.

      I would say "having been touched" for a highly formal setting, because the time referred by "having being touched" occured before the time refered by the main verb "showed". However, in a casual setting, "being touched" would also do. People aren't that strict about the tense of participles in a casual setting.

    OMG, Shakespeare in the initial part of the vid looks and sounds like Philip from the O'Grady cartoon series!!! XD
    Also, great vid but "modals" and "models" aren't homophones, and saying "and et cetera" is grammatically incorrect because et = and. (Grammar Nazi here, enjoy my phenomenal wisdom!)
