I saw in the comments that a lot of you were confused about apostrophe D.
For example
I’d go - we’d had
That apostrophe D is that “we had” or “we would”
“I had” or “I would”
Let’s find out
This guy sees a million burgers on a plate
And he wants to eat them.
So he says this:
Million burgers? I’d a million burgers
And he tried, but the burgers killed him
He ate too much. So the next day it’s his funeral
And someone says this:
He’d eaten 70 burgers before he died
To be honest, if one day if I die
Because I ate too many burgers. Please know, that I died happy
But the question of today
Is this: the apostrophe D…
“I’d” - “he’d”
Is it “had”? Or is it “would”
It could be either
It can be difficult to know the difference
But this is the easy way
If the next verb is the bare infinitive
which means the original verb without “to”
For example “eat”
Then this must be
“Would”
Always that’s.. that’s a rule
But, but this one
If it’s a verb three the past participle
“Eaten”
Then this must be “had”
That’s also a rule
So I’d eat a million burgers.
We’re talking about a hypothetical
It should be “would”
And this one he’d eaten 70 burgers before he died.
We’re talking about a past thing
So
Not always, but it could be past perfect
He had eaten
And that’s basically it
So we’re gonna practice this.
I’m going to give you ten example sentences
You decide if the apostrophe D is “had” or “would”
Pause the video if you have to
Go grab a coffee, or a tea, whatever you want
And pen, paper.. you’ll need that
If you don’t have paper
You have an arm. You can write on your arm
If you don’t have an arm
Write on your friend’s face
On your piece of paper, write:
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10
You only have to answer “would” or “had”
That’s it
Are you ready for number one?
Let’s go.
Just write your answer
I’ll give you the answers at the end
Number two
Number three
Number four
Five
Six
Seven
Eight
Nine
And number ten is this one
This one’s actually a trick question
Because of this verb
Just by looking at it
You don’t know if it’s a verb three the past participle
or the infinitive
Because it spelled the same in both cases
So some irregular verbs
“Put” is the same in every tense
Put, put, put
Cut, cut, cut
This one: read, read, read
Okay good the pronunciation is different,
But it’s still difficult, right?
So how do you know with those irregular verbs?
Which are weird
Look at the context.
Is it a hypothetical?
Probably it’s “would”
Is it talking about something in the past?
Or a third conditional
Then probably it’s “had”
Not always, but probably
Also words like:
They’re not always talking about the past
But it might help in understanding the context
And therefore
Understanding if that apostrophe D is “had” or “would”
