Notices are a part of daily life, I'm sure you can find more than one as you go about your daily life. The notice might seem like a topic for Business stream, but knowing how to create any of the different types of notices comes in very handy for anyone who does any kind of business. One important aspect of communication is business communication, also known as formal communication. Formal letters, memos, circulars, etc., are all forms of business communication. Another important tool of the same is a notice. Let's learn the meaning of notices and details of notice-writing. What exactly is a Public Notice? Notices, in general, are a means of formal communication targeted at a particular person or a group of persons. It is like a news item informing such person or persons of some important event.

So you've made it to a higher level, congratulations. By now you will have done enough poetry to realize that that there are types of poems. Can you remember any of those types? Here's a handy reminder: There is one more type that is missing from here and that's the "Sonnet" type poems. English poets borrowed the sonnet form from the Italian poet Francesco Petrarch . Traditionally, it has fourteen lines of iambic pentameter linked by an intricate rhyme scheme . Iambic pentameter refers to its rhythm ; basically, each line of the poem has ten syllables , and every other syllable is stressed. The words I've put in bold in the paragraph above are important terms to understand in the field of poetry, and we will be covering them later in this lesson. Writing poetry is quite easy,  I can make one that's very... cheesy Rhyming words is little stress Count your syllables to be the best See? You can do that! In the picture above, they mention "Ballads...

So, verbs, remember how there are different types of them?  Can you name any of the types? Think about that... then take a look down below. Now that your memory is refreshed, let's go into the topic for today - Transitive & Intransitive verbs. What are transitive and intransitive verbs? If you took the time to read the information in the picture above, you'll have read something about transitive verbs needing an object in the sentence to "transfer" it's action to; whereas an intransitive verb does not need an object, it does not have to link the "action" that it does to the subject/object of the sentence. Confused? Let's look at some examples, beginning with the TRANSITIVE VERBS 1. The speaker examined the iPhone 13 in the video. This the verb in this sentence (examined) is Transitive, see how it links to the object of the sentence? The object or objects in a sentence with a transitive verb (usually) directly follows the verb. A transitive ve...

Clauses and Phrases ; sounds like they can be easily mixed up, right? They both are parts of a sentence, and phrases can be found within clauses.  Confusing? Let me put it this way, it's all about making sense . Sentences as a whole, must make sense grammatically ; that means the order and type of words, as well as the punctuation used, must obey the rules of English grammar. Within a sentence there are clauses and these come in two categories : Dependent and Independent . Basically, Independent clauses make sense on their own, when separated from their original sentence. Dependent clauses cannot stand by themselves, when you read them they sound wrong... like they're missing something. As for phrases, they too have different types . When a phrase is separated from it's original sentence we can identify what type it is based on what kind of word they begin with (think Noun, Verb, Preposition, etc.). However, when a phrase is identified within a sentence, it's type can...
