Several question types in this ad: Present simple question word question with TO BE, a Yes/No question and a question tag question. At the bottom a WILL+ infinitive question, as a call for action. #ReallyRealGrammar #LinguisticLandscapes

Interesting to see both GOING TO and WILL for future reference being used in a single cartoon. The WILL for me sounds more definitive, certain. Would you agree? #ReallyRealGrammar #LinguisticLandscapes

In informal spoken(-like) English, present simple questions often occur without the auxiliary ‘to do’. #ReallyRealGrammar #LinguisticLandscapes

I had a great time doing this session with an enthusiastic and engaged group of English language teachers at #Lingofest 2027 in UCLL Hasselt today.
A great event year after year!

Enjoyed myself delivering this CPD session for teachers at #CNO University of Antwerp with a fully engaged and enthusiastic group of teachers. See? I don’t only talk about grammar.😉 Next stop: Lingofest at UCLL Diepenbeek on March 12th.

A WILL+ (bare) infinitive expressing a promise, an engagement and also a comparative and superlative form of ‘fast’ in the same ad. #ReallyRealGrammar #LinguisticLandscapes

Two WILL+infinitive examples. The first one as part of a conditional expressing a promise, an engagement. The second one more of a certainty, you can count on our quality. #ReallyRealGrammar #LinguisticLandscapes

Really enjoyed giving a talk at #CNO Talendag at the University of Antwerp last Friday. A very motivated group of teachers joined in on exploring how we can use accessible poetry as an engaging language learning tool. #elt

Present simple for a past event in news headlines. An example showing that we use the tense for much more than just present time reference. #reallyrealgrammar

Who said imperatives are (mainly?) used for orders? #ReallyRealGrammar #LinguisticLandscapes

Funny message in the Erasmus Hogeschool canteen at #belta25 with an imperative inspired by the movie Forrest Gump. Once again not an order or command, but rather an encouragement #ReallyRealGrammar #LinguisticLandscapes
