Cultural Awareness
In English, we use a full name or a family name. Use a full
name, first name, or short name (nickname) without a title.
Example: A: Hello, my name is David Hasselhof.
B: Nice to meet you, Mr. Hasselhof.
In Indonesia, people tend to address a person by using the
first name. This may happen because most Indonesians do
not have family names.
Example: A: Nama saya Rudi Wijanarko.
B: Oh, halo, Pak Rudi.

The verb to be acts as a linking verb. A linking verb provides no action
to sentence.

As main verb, to have implies the meaning of possession.
For example: I have a good job.

PRONOUNS
The subjective pronouns (he, she, I, it, they, you, we) are used
for the subject of a clause.
E.g. Shall we help those people?
The objective pronouns (him, her, me, it, them, you, us) are used
for the object of verb or a preposition.

Grammar In Action
PRONOUNS
The possessive before a noun (my, his, her, our, their, its, your) is
used to show possession.
E.g. This is my book. Where is your book?
The possessive after a noun (mine, his, hers, theirs, yours, ours) is
also used to show possession.
E.g. This book is mine, but that one on the table is yours.
Rising And Falling Intonation
Rising intonation is used for interrogative questions.
E.g. – Are they students?
- Are you Mr. Smith?
Falling intonation is used for statements and WH-
questions.
E.g. – Who are you?
WH – Question Words
We use question words to ask certain types of question. We often refer
to them as WH- words because they include the letters WH (what,
who, why, when, where, how).

something
