Fiveth English Class

Hello again...
how are you to day?
there is a new post and my English class again. Our new session was on Monday, it mean last day. My younger sister had a class in Tehran, for this reason, we hadn't class on Thursday.
OK, I missed her so much... as usual she asked us new words and our homework, after some questions, she talked about quantifiers. Quantifiers are easy, you can quantifying for how many of something, all, nearly all, most, many, a lot of, some, mot many, a few, no one...
no one is a positive quantify,
no one takes new class in this semester. no one doesn’t take new class in this semester is wrong. Then we compared something together, just like life in future and past or traditional life and modern.
By the way, she explained present continues, it means, a some one or something is doing a work until now or around now, Just like: It is reining now, it isn’t raining any more.
Or I am reading a book about history.
we took our new lesson, the title is how often do you exercise?
This lesson is about exercise and also teaches sports name, and how often and do you ever questions, I am so happy that sports names are the same in fasri. In English, sports get 3 different verbs, go, do and play, just like, do yoga, or go swimming, and play soccer, it’s easy, if any exercises sports is just with body, it is do, if it takes a distant or must crossing, it’s go, and if it is a play, specially play with a foreign object, it is play.
grammar of this unit is adverbs or frequency,
We learned new question, how often, this question is easy to say...
how often do you go to the gym?
How often did she eat pasta last year?
How often do you drink coffee in a day?
Must asked this questions with a period of time, I go to he gym twice a week. Once, twice, three times, four times, ...
I think she doen’t eat pasta until now.
You can ask this questions with a frequency adverbs, but before it, I must explain another question,
Do you ever go to the gym in the morning?
Did she ever eat pasta in last year?
Do you ever drink coffee this day?
for ask, you must use of this adverbs, always> almost always> usually> often> sometimes> hardly ever> almost never> never.
Use this grammar for this adverbs.... sub + adverbs of frequency + verbs
I never drink coffee,
Just about some times, you can use it in first or in end of your sentence..... sometimes I drink coffee, or I sometimes drink coffee, or I drink coffee sometimes.
If the verb is to be, we Change place of adverb,
I’m dancing always,

She talked about pronunciation of some words that end with “age”. If that word have more than one syllable, it pronounce /Idз/
message, manage, village, carriage, garbage
one syllable: page, cage, age are /aij/
And this pronunciation, Live /lv/ Leave /liv/
Another thing a bout grammar:
help s.b with the... I help you with the your homework.
And... when use of computer or telephone, we use “on the”.
