What are 'is', 'are', and 'am' called in English grammar?
Answer
'Is', 'are', and 'am' are helping words called verbs. They tell us about the state or condition of someone or something. We use them to say who or what exists or does something.
When do we use 'am' in a sentence?
Answer
We use 'am' only with the word 'I'. It shows that something is true about me. For example: 'I am happy.' 'I am a student.'…
Fill in the blank: I ___ playing.
Answer
I am playing. We always use 'am' with 'I'.
When do we use 'is' in a sentence?
Answer
We use 'is' with singular subjects like 'he', 'she', 'it', 'this', 'that', or any single person or thing. For example: 'She is a teacher.' 'It is an egg.'…
Choose the correct word: He ___ dancing.
Answer
He is dancing. We use 'is' with 'he', 'she', or 'it'.
Why do we say 'It is an apple' and not 'It is a apple'?
Answer
We use 'an' before words that start with a vowel sound like 'apple'. Since 'apple' starts with the 'a' sound, we say 'an apple'. So, 'It is an apple' is correct.
When do we use 'are' in a sentence?
Answer
We use 'are' with plural subjects like 'we', 'you', 'they', 'these', 'those', or more than one person or thing. For example: 'They are playing.' 'You are smart.'…
Choose the correct word: They ___ eating.

They are eating. We use 'are' with 'they', 'we', and 'you' when talking about more than one.
