Lessons 21–26

Lesson	Grammar	Example
21	some and any	I have some stamps, but I don't have any envelopes. Is there any tea?
22	was and were	The concert was great, but the seats weren't good. Were you there? — Yes, I was.
23	the past of regular verbs	She opened (d) the box, looked (t) inside and shouted (id)! · tap → tapped · fry → fried
24	Can I…?	Can I close the curtains? — Sure, go ahead. / Sorry, you can't.
25	and, but, because	I like jazz, and my wife likes it too. It's late, but I'm not tired. We're late because the bus was slow.
26	word order	Our neighbors have dinner in their yard on summer evenings. a quiet street

Six things to watch: any after not and in questions (not I don't have some); were with you, we, they (not they was); the -ed spelling and sound (not walk-ed); Can I + the verb, with no to (not Can I to go?); because + a subject and a verb (not because is late); the adjective before the noun (not a street quiet).
