Since many of us are self quarantined with the Stay at Home Order, it is an opportune time to review the lessons we learned (or not
![]() ![]() The Proper Use of See, Saw, and Seen Present Tense: see -- (the action is happening NOW in the present) Past Tense: saw -- (the action is over) Everyday I see my neighbor, and everyday he sees me. “I see something lying on the road up ahead.” Yesterday I saw my neighbor mowing his lawn. Last year, I saw the Super Bowl in person. Past Participle: seen -- (used with have, has, is, was, will be, had been, etc.) In the past, I have seen two rainbows in the sky at once. Before we had seen ten minutes of the movie, the projector broke. In this film, Tom Hanks is seen as a mad scientist who invents a formula for invisibility . Never ever say or write “I seen.” Say, “I HAVE seen” or “I HAD seen.” Remember: The word seen must never follow directly after the words I, he, she, we, they, Bob, Mary (any person’s name). ![]() Last edited by Burnadell; 04-09-2020 at 02:18 PM. |

Sadly, there are members of our TBH community who have been AFFECTED...not effected
![]() I thought it would be helpful in their job interviews if they presented themselves as having at least an elementary grasp of the basic tenets of grammar. Hopefully, this little lesson, if applied correctly, rather than ridiculed ![]() ![]() Important reminder: For those of you who want to demonstrate their sincere appreciation for my attitude of caring about them so they can present themselves in a positive, edumacated manner, I tend to lean towards the finer grades of adult beverages. ![]() ![]() |

Past participle has already happened, so how does “he/she/it/they will be seen” convey the past and not the future?
Asking for a friend, I worked hard for a B or C in english class. Math and history was more my thing. |

They didn’t get it in 13 years of school so I doubt they’ll get it in a couple of weeks of quarantine.

By the way. What is Quarantine Grammar? Shouldn't the title be a grammar lesson while under quarantine?
