 Lesson 9 (24 January , 2023)

Getting the structure right

Generally, English Language sentences are basically built up of

Subject + Verb + Object/Predicate

They are actually quite simple . One could identify this structure taken from any sentence extracts.

Example: 


KUALA LUMPUR: The Meteorological Department of Malaysia (MetMalaysia) has issued a dangerous-level continuous heavy rain warning for several districts in Johor and Sabah until Wednesday.

According to a statement issued at 7pm yesterday, the Johor districts are Kluang, Mersing, Kulai, Kota Tinggi and Johor Baru while in Sabah, the affected districts are Sandakan (Telupid, Kinabatangan, Beluran and Sandakan) and Kudat (Pitas and Kudat).

Severe-level continuous heavy rain is also expected in Johor (Segamat, Batu Pahat and Pontian); Kuching, Serian, Samarahan, Betong, Sarikei (Sarikei and Meradong), Mukah and Bintulu (Bintulu) in Sarawak and Sabah's interior (Tambunan), West Coast, Tawau (Lahad Datu) and Kudat (Kota Marudu).

Meanwhile, MetMalaysia also warned of continuous rain at alert level in Pahang (Kuantan, Pekan and Rompin); Johor (Tangkak and Muar); Sri Aman, Sarikei (Pakan and Julau), Sibu, Bintulu (Tatau and Sebauh) and Miri (Subis, Beluru, Miri and Marudi) in Sarawak and Sandakan (Tongod) in Sabah. - Bernama


Example 1 :

KUALA LUMPUR: The Meteorological Department of Malaysia (MetMalaysia) has issued a dangerous-level continuous heavy rain warning for several districts in Johor and Sabah until Wednesday.

The basic structure is:

It + has issued + warning

It - The Meteorolgical Department of Malaysia

has issued - verb

a dangerous-level continuous heavy rain warning for several districts in Johor and Sabah until Wednesday - object


Example 2:

According to a statement issued at 7pm yesterday, the Johor districts are Kluang, Mersing, Kulai, Kota Tinggi and Johor Baru while in Sabah, the affected districts are Sandakan (Telupid, Kinabatangan, Beluran and Sandakan) and Kudat (Pitas and Kudat). 


The basic structure is only:

The Johor districts are Kluang,Mersing,Kulai,Kota Tinggi and Johor Baru.

 

Subject - The Johor districts

Verb - are

Object - Kluang,Mersing,Kulai.....
