We would write to each other every month. Or you could say that you wrote to one another every month. The meaning in this case is the same. But most often each other is used to talk about two people. While one another refers to more than two people. We mentioned EACH OTHER and ONE ANOTHER, but there is also EVERY OTHER! I got to class every other day. EVERY OTHER talks about an “alternate.” means that one goes to class one day, not the next day, but then again on the third day. How about THE OTHER ? The other day, THE OTHER morning, THE OTHER week ? “I saw George the other day.”

COULD HAVE means that something was possible in the past, but it did not happen. “I could have travelled the world, but I never got a pssport.” To from the negative, just add not betweend could and have. It means that something was impossible in the past. “I could not have travelled the world, because I never got a pssport.” WOULD HAVE is a bit more complicated since it has two common meanings. But we will only talk about the one that shows how you wanted to do something in the past, but you could not. I would have A , but I had to B. “ I would have called but I had to work.” The structure both modals is easy to remember. could/would + have + past participle verb Use have for all pronouns. Never use has or had to from a past modal. use COULD HAVE when something did not happen. use WOULD HAVE when something could not happen.

Before + subject + verb After + subject + verb Before I went to work … After we finished our project …. A TIME CLAUSE can follow a main clause or be in front of a main clasue. Befor I went to work, I ate breakfast. We celevrated with frineds after we finished our project. We went to dinner after we finished our work. After we finished out work , we went to dinner.

“Would you mind” + VERB + –ING ENDING Examples: Would you mind turning off you music ? Would you mind taking out the trash ? Would mind closing the door ? Would you mind driving me to the airport ?
