It is funny. When learning these languages, especially Arabic, it was amazing how little of English grammer I know. So, when the prof said, "this is the antecedant of the transitive verb in the perfect passive tense with an indirect object... my first reaction was "what!?" I was looking up terms like crazy. I wanted to raise my hand and say, "when I use the antecedant of the transtive verb in the perfect passive tense, could you let me know."
I was never very good at grammar.
LOL! Me neither! I really need a good grammar instruction book, just to have as a reference. Maybe I’ll check Amazon.
I remember having to prase sentences in I think 6th grade and failing miserably.
Will check that Wikipedia article now.
