Assalamualaikum w. w.
Kali ini departemen PMB mengajak teman - teman semua anggota CSSMORA UNAIR untuk belajar bahasa inggris melalui berbagai media salah satunya melalui internet.
yukz kita mulai belajar bahasa inggrisnya !!!

Grammar CornerPART IA. Position of an Object

Perhatikan beberapa contoh di bawah ini:
Kita bisa mengungkapkannya sebagai berikut:
• He lent me a book - He lent a book to me
• He sent me a card - He sent a card to me
• She bought me a tie - She bought a tie for me
• She made a cake for me - She made me a cake


B. Common Mistakes

• Ask vs Ask For
Incorrect : He came and asked my book
Correct : He came and asked for my book
(Perhatikan bahwa ask hanya akan bermakna ‘meminta’ ketika ia diiringi preposition for).
• Pay vs Pay For
Incorrect : How much did you pay the book?
Correct : How much did you pay for the book?
(Pay & Pay for memiliki makna yang sama, tapi penggunaan keduanya berbeda. Pay for secara khusus bermakna ‘membayar’ sesuatu yang dibeli, sedangkan Pay bermakna ‘membayar’ seseorang (karena jasa yang diberikan, dll.), suatu tagihan, rekening dsb).


C. Exercises

Tulis kalimat-kalimat di bawah ini dengan cara yang berbeda:
1. He paid the shop-keeper some money.
2. He handed me the prize.
3. The waiter brought a bottle of sprite to the man.
4. Read me the first pargraph.
5. I’ve ordered some soup for you.
6. I owe him a lot of money.
