1. is, am, are - kalimat positif

Is, am, dan are adalah kata kerja yang berfungsi sama, yakni
‘menyatakan keadaan’ yang bermakna ‘adalah’. Tapi,
masing-masing hanya bisa dipakai dengan subjek tertentu saja.
Nah, subjek terdiri dari tujuh pihak, yaitu I (saya), He (dia, John),
She (dia, Susy), It (ia, buku), We (kami, kita), They (mereka, Bob &
Ely, buku-buku), dan You (kamu, kalian).
Lantas, subjek mana yang bisa memakai kata kerja is, am, dan are?
Rincian penjodohonnya adalah seperti di bawah ini:
I am … (= I’m) => Saya adalah …
He is … (= He’s) => Dia (laki-laki) adalah …
She is … (= She’s) => Dia (perempuan) adalah …
It is … (= It’s) => Ia (benda) adalah …
They are … (= They’re) => Mereka adalah …
We are … (= We’re) => Kami adalah …
You are … (= You’re) => Kamu adalah …
Supaya punya makna, penjodohan tersebut perlu ditambahi
komplemen/pelengkap, yang dapat berupa:
(frasa) kata benda = Andy, a student, my friend, dll.
(frasa) kata sifat = fat, very thin, overly optimistic, dll.
frasa preposisi = at school, from China, in the box, dll.
Sehingga menjadi kalimat utuh seperti berikut:
I’m Andy Mcquire. = Saya adalah Andy Mcquire.
She’s very thin. = Dia sangat kurus.
He’s my friend. = Dia adalah teman saya.
It’s on the table. = Ia [benda] di atas meja.
They’re from China. = Mereka (berasal) dari China.
We’re at school. = Kami (berada) di sekolah.
You’re too optimistic. = Kamu terlalu optimistis.
Begitu saja kok cara membuat kalimat dengan kata kerja is, am, are.
Gampang, kan? (Klo liat contoh-contoh itu sih gampang, tapi yang
bukan contoh pasti sulit. Sebel deh!). Coba saja dulu latihannya ya.

9. Present Continuous - kalimat tanya WH

WH adalah kata tanya yang berawalan huruf w dan h, yaitu what


(apa), where (di mana), when (kapan), who (siapa), why (mengapa),
dan how (bagaimana). Kata tanya ini memerlukan jawaban berupa
sebuah kalimat, bukan jawaban Yes/No.
Pola kalimat tanya WH present continous adalah kata tanya WH
diikuti be, subjek dan kata kerja ‘ing’. Perhatikan pola lengkapnya
sebagai berikut:

WH Be S KK ‘ing’ Jawaban
Where am I lying? You’re lying in ICU.
What are you doing? I’m writing a novel.
Why is Jeny crying? Her mom is sick.
How is Phill going? He’s going by train.
Who are the cops chasing? They’re chasing robbers.

That’s it. Very easy, isn’t it? Sekarang, silakakan cicipi latihannya.
Jangan lupa untuk membaca setiap kalimat secara lantang untuk
melatih pengucapan dan mengasah kelancaran berbicara.

Catatan:
Kata tanya WH tidak bisa dijawab dengan Yes/No. Untuk
mendapatkan jawaban Yes/No, kita langsung menggunakan be di
awal kalimat tanpa kata tanya WH.
Contoh:
What are you reading? I’m reading a comic.
Are you reading a comic? Yes, I am.
What are you reading a comic? ?????
Nomor 1 harus dijawab dengan sebuah kalimat, yakni ‘I am reading
a comic.…’ atau cukup ‘a comic’. Nomor 2 harus dijawab dengan
‘Yes/No’, yakni ‘Yes, I am. /No, I am not’. Nomor 3 tidak bisa
dijawab, karena pertanyaanya salah.

yakni ‘pekan lalu’.
Pola kalimat past simple adalah subyek diikuti kata kerja lampau
(verb 2). Apapun subjeknya, kata kerjanya sama, yakni KK lampau:
They/We/I/You/He/She/It KK lampau
Contoh:
 They cleaned my room yesterday morning.
 We washed my bike last week.
 I met John last night.
 You kicked me two days ago
 He went to Bali last year.
 She climbed Bromo last month.
 It rang loudly few minutes ago.
Kata yang ditebalkan di atas adalah kata kerja lampau:
1. Umumnya KK lampau adalah kata kerja dasar diimbuhi ‘ed’:
clean - cleaned
wash - washed
watch - watched
2. Sebagian kecil kata kerja tidak bisa diimbuhi ‘ed’ (tak beraturan,
lihat lampiran):
buy - bought
meet - met
cut - cut
(Hadooooh. Berarti harus ngapalin dong?!) Ya, memang. Tapi tak
perlu fokus menghapalkan kata kerja yang tak beraturan itu.
Sering-sering saja latihan. Lama-lama hapal dengan sendirinya kok.

28. Past Continuous and Past Simple

Past continuous tense dan past simple tense seringkali dipakai secara
bersamaan dalam satu kalimat dengan kata hubung ‘when’:
Tom was cooking when the stove exploded.
Tom sedang memasak ketika kompor meledak.
Aktivitas past simple menyela (menginterupsi) aktivitas past
continuous. Dengan kata lain, aktivitas past simple terjadi di
tengah-tengah aktivitas past continuous:
Jeny was watching TV when her father got home.
Jeny sedang menonton TV ketika ayahnya tiba di rumah.
Pada contoh kalimat di atas, aktivitas ‘sedang menonton TV’ sudah
dimulai sebelum aktivitas ‘tiba di rumah’ dan masih akan
berlangsung setelahnya. Pendek kata, aktivitas ‘tiba di rumah’
terjadi hanya sebentar di tengah aktivitas ‘sedang menonton TV’.
Biar mudah, ingat saja. Untuk aktivitas yang berlangsung lebih lama,
gunakan past continuous, sedangkan untuk aktivitas yang
berlangsung dalam waktu lebih singkat, gunakan past simple.
Gampang, kan? Nih, contoh lain yang lebih simpel:
The thief was trying to steal a motorbike when a cop shot him.
(Alamak… kalimat panjang gitu kok dibilang simpel. Simpel apanya?
Hhhh… Tambah pussyying aku.)

Informasi tambahan:
Terdapat perbedaan antara kalimat past continous vs past simple dan
past simple vs past simple:
When her father got home, Jeny was cooking.
(Jeny sudah mulai memasak sebelum ayahnya tiba)
When her father got home, Jeny cooked dinner.
(Jeny baru mulai memasak setelah ayahnya tiba.)
