BE:

If + subject + were + other words, subject + would (‘d) + verb + other words.
OR
Subject + would (‘d) + verb + other words + if + subject + were + other words.

Examples:

If he were here today , he ‘d help you. /
He’d help you if he were here today.
(He isn’t here today, so he can’t help you.)

If I were rich , I’d travel around the world. /
I’d travel around the world if I were rich.
(I’m not rich, so I can’t travel around the world.)

If cars were affordable, I ‘d buy a new one. / I’d buy a new car if they were affordable.
(New cars aren’t affordable for me, so I can’t buy one.)
___________________________________
Other Verbs:
If + subject + past verb + other words ,
subject + would (‘d) + verb + other words.
OR
Subject + would (‘d) + verb + other words + if + subject + past verb + other words.

Examples:

If you asked him, he ‘d help you. /
He’d help you if he asked him.
(You haven’t asked him, so he can’t help you.)

If I had a lot of money , I’d travel
around the world. / I ‘d travel around
the world if I had a lot of money.
(I don’t have a lot of money, so I can’t
travel around the world.)

If companies sold affordable cars ,
I’d buy one. / I’d buy a car if companies
sold affordable ones.
(Companies don’t sell cars that are
affordable for me, so I can’t buy one.)

Important: In the examples above, there is a difference in tense and time (that is, using past tense forms for situations
that are in present or future time). This
difference in tense and time signals that the situation is unreal, hypothetical, and
contrary to fact.

Special Notes:
1.
In formal writing, present / future unreal
conditionals with BE use were for I, you, he, she, it, we, and they:
If I / you / he / she / it / we / they were here . . .
In casual conversation and very informal writing, was (usually pronounced “wuz”) is often used instead of were.

2.
It’s most common, in this type of conditional, to use would in the result clause, but could and might are also possible:

If he were here today, he could / might
help you.

If I were rich, I could / might travel
around the world.

If I had a lot of money, I could / might travel around the world.

If companies sold affordable cars,
I could / might buy one.

3.
If would shows willingness , it may appear in both the condition and the result:

If she would study, she would get good grades.
(She isn’t willing to study, so she probably won’t get good grades.)

If he would play fair, we would ask him
to be on the team.
(He isn’t willing to play fair, so we aren’t
willing to ask him to be on the team.

4.
Would cannot be used in the condition if it doesn’t refer to willingness:

strange:
*If I would be young, I would have more energy.

strange:
* If he would have enough time, he would
help you.

Let Alone

Let alone = प्रश्नच उद्भवत नाही, विचारूच नका.

मी कुत्र्यांच्या जवळ सुध्दा जात नसतो, पाळण्याचं तर दूरच राहीलं
“I wouldn’t go near a dog, let alone pet one.

आपल्याला वाचायचं असलेल्या पुस्तकाचं साधं नाव सुध्दा मला आठवत नाही, त्यातील मजकुराचं तर विचारूच नका.
“I can’t remember the title of the book we were supposed to read, let alone the details of the story.”

काही वाक्य बघा :
No one as a result of those letters was even frightened, let alone suffering any great calamity.

And yet they must not be encouraged by being let alone .

She would have killed her for a hat-pin, let alone a hat.

Yet modern readers barely have time to read their e-mail, let alone tackle a million word masterpiece.

They destroy there homes when they get over populated and there is not enough feed for them let alone cattle or sheep.

एंजेला कार्टर च्या पुस्तकातून :
Her personality had an architectonic quality; I think of her when I see some of the great London railway termini, especially St. Pancras, with its soot and turrets, and she overshadowed her own daughters, whom she did not understand —my mother, who liked things to be nice; my dotty aunt. But my mother had not the strength to put even some physical distance between them, let alone keep the old monster at emotional arm’s length.

पुस्तक छान आहे तूम्ही पन वाचा.

[4/24, 6:24 PM] Anand Sir: बघा किती ईंग्रजी तुम्ही समजू शकता ?
When Sam reached the bedroom, he saw Steven’s corpse lying in a pool of blood on the bed. His eyes were bulged out and the neck and head were left hanging to one side. His neck was cut and it was apparent from the condition of the bed that he must have struggled hard to survive. Sam surveyed around. One of his team members was brushing objects in an attempt to find some sort of clue and another other one was busy taking photographs. His other team member briefed him up –
“ Sir the victim is Steven Smith, 25 …”
“ Got any fingerprints?” Sam asked him before he had finished his briefing.
“ No sir… not yet”
“ Make sure everything is covered” Sam instructed the photographer passing by.
“ Yes sir” he promptly replied.
Suddenly Sam’s attention was caught by something odd. He went to the bedroom door. The latch and the portion around it was broken.
“The killer must have entered in by kicking open the door. ” Sam said. Then came the voice of Jeff, another member of the team. Jeff was around 35, very short, fat and had a less than distinguished appearance.
“No sir, actually I broke it. When we arrived, the door was locked from the inside.”
“ You broke it?” Sam said in surprise.
“ Yes sir”
“ Back to your old routine then Mr. Bell” Sam said jokingly, but not showing so on his face.
“ Yes sir, I mean no sir.”
Sam turned and threw a glance at the room’s only window. It was closed, naturally, as the room was air conditioned.
“If the door was locked from inside, and the windows were closed, then how did the killer enter the room? “ Sam asked, almost to himself.
Astonished, everybody looked at each other. Nobody had an answer.
“ More importantly sir, how the hell did he escape?” Jeff said.
The detective simply gave Jeff a stern look. Suddenly everybody’s attention was caught by an investigating officer who had recovered some pieces of hairs around the bed.
“ Hairs? Bag them and get them to the labs.” Sam instructed.
[4/24, 6:44 PM] Anand Sir: डिटेक्टीव सॅम जेव्हा बेडरुममध्ये शिरला त्याला स्टीवनचं शव बेडवर पडलेलं दिसलं. त्याचे डोळे बाहेर आलेले आणि मान एका बाजूला वळलेली होती. बेडवर सगळीकडे रक्तच रक्त पसरलेलं होतं. त्याचा गळा लोळा तोडल्यागत कापलेला होता.
बेडच्या स्थीतीवरुन असं जाणवत होतं की मरण्याच्या आधी स्टीव्हन बराच तडफडला असावा. डिटेक्टीव सॅमने बेडरुममध्ये आजूबाजूला नजर फिरवली. फोरेन्सीक टीम बेडरुममधेही तपास करीत होती. एक जण कोपऱ्यात ब्रशने काहीतरी साफ केल्यागत काहीतरी करीत होता तर अजून एकजण खोलीतले फोटो घेण्यात व्यस्त होता. एका फोरेन्सीक टीमच्या मेंबरने डीटेक्टीव सॅमला माहिती पुरविली –
” सर मयताचे नावं स्टीव्हन स्मीथ’
‘ फिंगरप्रींटस वैगेरे काही मिळालं का?”
‘ नाही आत्तापर्यंत तरी नाही’
डिटेक्टीव सॅमने फोटोग्राफरकडे पाहत म्हटले, ” काही सुटलं नाही पाहिजे याची काळजी घ्या”
” यस सर ” फोटोग्राफर आदबीने म्हणाला.
अचानक सॅमचं लक्ष एका अनपेक्षीत गोष्टीकडे आकर्षीत झालं. तो बेडरुमच्या दरवाज्याजवळ गेला. दरवाज्याचं लॅच आणि आजुबाजुची जागा तुटलेली होती.
” म्हणजे खुनी हा दरवाजा तोडून आत आला वाटतं” सॅम म्हणाला.
जेफ, साधारणत: पस्तीशीतला, बुटका, जाड, त्यांचा टीम मेंबर पुढे आला,
”नाही सर, खरं म्हणजे हा दरवाजा मी तोडला… कारण आम्ही इथे पोहोचलो तेव्हा दरवाजा आतून बंद होता.”
” तु तोडला?” सॅम आश्चर्याने म्हणाला.
” यस सर”
” काय पुन्हा आधीचे कामधंदे सुरु केले की काय?” सॅम गंमतीने पण चेहऱ्यावर तसं न दाखविता म्हणाला.
” हो सर … म्हणजे नाही सर” सॅम ने वळून एकदा खोलीत चहुवार आपली दृष्टी फिरवली, विषेशत: खिडक्यांवरुन. बेडरुमला एकच खिडकी होती आणि तीही आतून बंद होती. बंद
असणं साहजिकच होतं कारण रुम एसी होती.
” जर दार आतून बंद होतं… आणि खिडकीही आतून बंद
होती … तर मग खुनी खोलीत आलाच कसा…”
सगळेजण आश्चर्याने एकमेकांकडे पाहू लागले.
” आणि सगळ्यात महत्वाचं म्हणजे तो आत आल्यावर बाहेर कसा गेला?” जेफ म्हणाला.
डिटेक्टीव्हने फक्त त्याच्याकडे रोखुन बघितले. अचानक सगळ्यांचं लक्ष एका इन्वेस्टीगेटींग ऑफिसरने आकर्षीत केलं. त्याला बेडच्या आजुबाजुला काही केसांचे तुकडे सापडले होते.
” केस? … त्यांना व्यवस्थीत सिल करुन पुढच्या तपासणीसाठी लॅबमध्ये पाठवा’
सॅमने आदेश दिला.

ANNE: The samples you sent me were very popular with our staff. You seem to understand our tastes in Singapore.

SARAH: Thankyou. It’s my job to know what my clients like.

ANNE seems distracted. SARAH observes her for a moment.

SARAH: So, are you enjoying the city?

ANNE: (unconvincingly) It’s very nice.

ANNE: I don’t know. I’ll probably stay in the hotel and relax.

We will discuss this point in evening.
[5/5, 8:55 AM] Anand Sir: Cut कापायला वस्तू पाहीजे ना? मग हे सकर्मक क्रियापद आहे.
[5/5, 9:00 AM] Anand Sir: Laugh हसायला बाह्य वस्तू object नसलं तरी हसता येतं.
त्यामुळे I laugh. हे वाक्य पुर्ण होते.
परंतू I cut. हे अपुर्ण वाक्य आहे. कारन object दिलेलं नाही.
Cut ही object वर करण्याची क्रिया आहे.
OK will see in evening how could this information help us sharpen our fluency.

How do you know if Online Learning is for you?

 
 

Some of the advantages of online classes include the flexibility and convenience of when and how you do your work. But taking classes online is a lot more challenging than it may seem. Are you considering taking some or all of your courses online?  Then make sure you’re ready to succeed. Online learning can sound so wonderful that some students start online courses without a clear picture of what is expected from them. Online courses require just as much, if not more, time and energy than traditional classroom courses. Also, online learning requires specific computer skills and learning strategies in order to succeed.

Do you have what it takes to be an online student?

1.  Persistence is perhaps the biggest key to success in online learning. Students who succeed in online learning are those who are willing to tolerate technical difficulties, seek help when needed, work daily on every class, and persist through challenges.  Some hints for doing well online are:

  • When you run into a challenge, keep trying and ask for help.
  • Set up a manageable study schedule for yourself and stick to it. Students who succeed are those who log in and make progress every day— even after the novelty of going to school online starts to wear off!

    2.  Time Management and Motivation.  As a student of online learning, you will be directing your learning on a day-by-day basis. Most courses are not taught in real time and there are no set times for classes.  In a virtual classroom you do not necessarily “see” your teacher each day, so you must be able to manage your time well. This flexibility is one of the great benefits of online learning. However, it can also be a drawback for a student who procrastinates, is unable to stick to a routine study schedule, or is not motivated to independently complete assignments without daily reminders from a teacher.

    Effective time-management skills don’t just happen. They have to be learned. Some suggestions to help you are:

  •  Review the syllabus for each of your courses and develop a long-term plan for completing your major assignments.
  • Make a daily “To Do” list and have fun checking things off the list as you complete them.

    3.  Communication Skills are very important in online learning because students have to be willing to seek help when they need it. Teachers are very willing to help students, but they are unable to tell when students look confused.  We provide several ways for students and parents to communicate with teachers and staff, including email, discussion groups, chat room office hours, phone numbers, messaging, and even real time face to face office hours. Teachers and staff are glad to take questions from students and want to help you to succeed in your classes.

    4.  Basic Computer Skills.  The ability to create new documents, use a word processing program, navigate the Internet, and upload files are some of the basic technical skills needed by online learners.

    5. Reading and writing are the main ways you’ll communicate in an online class. Although some hard copies of textbooks are available at school, you should be relatively comfortable reading extensive documents in English on a computer screen and typing without frustration.  If you type about 25-30 words per minute, you ready for online classes.  Some tests and quizzes have multiple choice questions, but many of your assignments will involve writing short or long answers.

    6. A Good Study Environment.  Another critical component of academic success online is a good study environment.

  • Get some peace and quiet. You will need a quiet place to work without distractions like television or siblings.
  • Avoid games. Consider uninstalling any computer games to avoid temptation, or keep the games on a different computer in the house. 
  • Turn off your cell phone. Let friends and family members know the hours that you will be “at” school. 
  • Beware of surfing. It is easy to wander off through the Internet for much longer than planned.

Set up a comfortable work space. Lighting in the room should be at least as bright as the computer screen to avoid eye strain.  Adjust the height of your chair, keyboard, and screen so that you are comfortable. Forearms and thighs should be level and parallel to the floor. Wrists should not be bent while typing.

Birth of Knowledge should be Painless.
