A weird Wake-up!

Today was the strangest day of my whole life. When I woke up, it was raining
inside my room! I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and the toothpaste was
black instead of white! Everything was the opposite. First, I put on my shoes.
Then, I pulled my socks over them, and…

Spell the tenses!!!

Spelling rules for the simple present tense of
the third singular person:

a) Add “s” for most verbs
Work - Works
Make - Makes
Ride - Rides
Return - Returns
b) Add “es” for vebs that end in ch, s, ss, sh, x, z, o
Go - Goes
Watch - Watches
Pass - Passes
Rush - Rushes
Buzz - Buzzes
c) Change the “y” to “i” and add “es” when the base form ends in a consonant + y

Study - Studies
Hurry - Hurries
Dry - Dries
Cry - Cries

Do not change the “y” to “i” when the base form ends in a vowel + y. Only add “s”

Play - Plays
Enjoy - Enjoys

d) A few verbs have irregular forms.

Be - Is
Have - Has

e) Modals doe not have third person singular conjugation:

will - will

should - should

must - must

can - can

the only exception is "need" "she needs to go..."

Hey there! Look at this FORUM:

A) Hi, I've got a question.
"It's important to me" vs "It's important for me"
What's the difference between to and for in this case..
I guess there is nothing wrong with both of those sentences but do you feel any difference from each?
It's almost impossible to get the difference of it.

B) Hiya A)
In my opinion I would say that there is no significant difference.
All I can say is that I would use "It's important for me...", when I want to:
1. make a stronger statement, i.e. I must/have to do it.
"It's important for me to learn English."
2. make a comparitive statement, i.e. have this rather than something else.
"My neighbour is an American and therefore it's important for me to learn English (rather than any other language)."
3. convey a feeling of immediacy
"It's important for me to learn English now, if I am to speak with my American neighbour."
4. give a list of criteria, i.e. I must have this, that and the other.
"It's important for me to have a phone that can take photographs and connect to the web."
If I replace the above 4 statements with the words "It's important to me...", it does not sound right. Maybe it is something to do with the repetitiveness of 'to' that I don't like, anyway, if I replace "It's important for me to..." with "It's important to me that I...." then it sounds better.
I hope this helps you. Perhaps there is someone out there can explain this better in terms of grammar.

C) It's a very difficult subject - to use 'to'or 'for'
My family is very important to me. That is the right sentence. a) I sent a letter to Mary. In that sentence I wrote a letter to Mary and sent it to her in another city, country... b) I sent a letter for Mary. In that one Mary wrote a letter for someone and couldn't mail it then other person maybe a friend maild it because she was very busy.

Formal greetings
How do you do? is very formal and is not used very much, especially by younger people, these days. It may be used on first meeting and accompanied by a formal handshake when both partners issue the same greeting. The reply to How do you do? is How do you do? Then it would be a matter of getting straight down to the business in hand, e.g. ‘I see that your company has been performing very well in South East Asia...'
The more usual exchange between two people meeting with a handshake on a fairly formal basis for the first time would be: Pleased to meet you. Or: Nice to meet you
Informal greetings
The most common way of greeting someone both at an informal level and more formally would be: Hello! How are you? to which the standard reply is: Very well, thank you. or: Fine, thank you. (Note that the question is not usually meant or interpreted as a searching enquiry after the person’s health.) After we have given this reply, we often repeat: (And) how are you? or: (And) what about you? The response is still the same: Fine, thanks.
At the most informal level, among friends and particularly among young people, the most common greeting would probably be: Hi! to which the response is: Hi! This might then be followed by one of the following: How are things?, How’s things?, How’s it going?, (Are) you OK? to which the answer is probably: Yeah, fine! or with typical British understatement: Yeah, not so bad!
Formal farewells
At a formal level, and again accompanied by a handshake, the most common farewell would probably be: (It was) nice to meet you or Nice to have met you. If a follow-up meeting has been arranged, this might be accompanied by: I’ll see you in three weeks. Bye, now.
Informal farewells
At a more informal level too, on first meeting, it would be quite normal to say: Nice to have met you. Bye/Goodbye.
Among friends, farewell might be taken (by a combination of) some of the following:
'Bye.'
'Bye-bye.'
'See you.'
'See you later./tomorrow./on Saturday./etc'
'Take care.
