PE-100: Your Grammar Toolkit: The One-Page Review of Everything
You have reached the last lesson. Stop for a moment and look at what that means: you started at "What Is a Sentence?" and you have worked through every tense in English, every modal verb, every conditional, the passive, reported speech, relative clauses and the whole apparatus of academic style. There is no major area of English grammar left that you have not met.
This lesson gives you no new grammar. It gives you the map — everything in one place, so you can find any rule in seconds. Keep it open when you write.
In this lesson you will find
- All 12 tenses in one table
- The modal scales and the four conditionals
- The ten golden rules that cross the whole language
- What to do next, now that the course is finished
1. The 12 tenses
| Aspect | PAST | PRESENT | FUTURE |
|---|---|---|---|
| Simple | I worked | I work | I will work |
| Continuous | I was working | I am working | I will be working |
| Perfect | I had worked | I have worked | I will have worked |
| Perfect Cont. | I had been working | I have been working | I will have been working |
Two questions build any tense (PE-41): When? — past, present, future. How do I see it? — a fact (Simple), in progress (Continuous), finished with a result (Perfect), or measured in length (Perfect Continuous).
2. Modals: three scales
1Obligation
must / have to → had better → should → could → don't have to · mustn't = forbidden
2Certainty
must be (95%) → should be (70%) → might be (50%) → can't be (5%)
3Ability
can → could / was able to → will be able to
4In the past
modal + have + V3: must have gone, should have told
3. The four conditionals
| Type | If-half | Result | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zero | present | present | always true |
| First | present | will + verb | real future |
| Second | past | would + verb | imaginary present |
| Third | had + V3 | would have + V3 | imaginary past |
Each step into imagination moves the verb one step back — and there is never a will or would after if.
4. Look how far you have come
Here are three sentences: what a beginner writes, and what you can write now. The ideas are the same. The difference is a hundred lessons.
Then: I live here 10 year. I like very much.
Now: I've been living here for ten years, and I like it very
much.
Bu yerda oʻn yildan beri yashayman va menga bu juda yoqadi.
Present Perfect Continuous · for · word order — PE-36, PE-33, PE-72.
Then: If I will have money, I will buy car.
Now: If I had more money, I would buy a car — but if I save
enough this year, I will definitely get one.
Agar koʻproq pulim boʻlsa, mashina olardim — lekin bu yil yetarlicha yigʻsam, albatta olaman.
Second and first conditionals in one sentence — PE-53, PE-54.
Then: Yesterday I go school. Teacher say me homework.
Now: Yesterday, while I was walking to school, I realised that I
had forgotten the homework my teacher had told me to do.
Kecha maktabga ketayotib, oʻqituvchim aytgan uy vazifasini esdan chiqarganimni angladim.
Past Continuous · Past Perfect · reported command · relative clause — PE-23, PE-38, PE-63, PE-58.
5. The ten golden rules
- One tense marker per verb phrase. didn't go, not
didn't went. - English word order is S–V–O–Manner–Place–Time — and nothing comes between the verb and its object.
- Every sentence needs a subject. It is raining. There is a problem.
- he / she / it takes -s in the present simple. Nothing else does.
- A singular countable noun needs a word in front: a, the, my, this…
- One negative per sentence. I never smoke. Although… (not …but).
- Stative verbs take no -ing: know, want, like, need, have (own).
- No will after when, if, as soon as, until, by the time.
- After a preposition, a verb takes -ing. good at swimming.
- Learn words with their partners: good at, depend on, make a decision.
6. The five Uzbek-interference fixes
Watch for these
- Articles — Uzbek has none (PE-4)
- Third-person -s (PE-9)
- Word order — Uzbek is SOV (PE-72)
- for / since + Present Perfect (PE-33)
- Double negatives · although…but (PE-11, PE-52)
Where Uzbek helps you
- -moqchiman = going to (PE-27)
- -gan ekan = has been -ing (PE-36)
- -tirdim = have it done (PE-66)
- -ib / -ayotib = participle clause (PE-86)
- mumkin emas / shart emas = mustn't / don't have to (PE-45)
7. What to do next
Grammar is now the part of English you know best. From here, progress comes from use, not study.
1Read every day
Fifteen minutes. Copy any phrase you like into a notebook — whole phrases, not single words (PE-90).
2Write something weekly
An email, a diary entry, a short story. Then check it with the ten golden rules.
3Speak, imperfectly
Fluency comes from talking with mistakes, not from waiting until you are perfect.
4Keep three errors in view
Your own top three, on the first page of your notebook (PE-92).
Practice — a little of everything
1 Name the tense and fix the error: I am living here since 2018.
Show answer
I have lived / have been living here since 2018.
Started in the past and still true → Present Perfect (PE-33), not the present.
2 Which conditional, and complete it: If I ___ (know) his number, I ___ (call) him. (I don't know it)
Show answer
Second conditional: If I knew his number, I would call him.
3 Find three errors: She go to the school every day and she is very good in maths.
Show answer
She goes to school every day and she is very good at maths.
Missing -s (PE-9) · the before school (PE-4) · good at, not in (PE-76).
4 Make it passive, then report it: Somebody stole my bike. "My bike was stolen," he said.
Show answer
My bike was stolen. (PE-60) → He said (that) his bike had been stolen. (PE-62)
5 Write three sentences about what you will do with your English next.
Show answer
Model: I'm going to read one English article every day. If I keep doing that, my vocabulary will grow quickly. By this time next year, I will have finished my first English novel.
Going to (PE-27) · first conditional (PE-53) · future perfect (PE-40). You built that.
