Golden rule #1,
Never, ever put verb 2, 3, or s/es right after "to".
There's no such thing as "to saw" (except if you mean to CUT something), "to went", "to seen" etc.
You'll find "to + V-ing", but it is not a verb. It's gerund.
-

Golden rule #2,
Never, ever put any kind of verb other than verb 1 after ANY form of modals. So, there's no such thing like "cannot repliED" in English.
@steavan,
I'm not picking on you. I just want your English to be better.
So, keep on posting.

Review last movie you've seen ==> Present perfect
Review last movie you saw ==> Past tense
The second is the correct one, bro.
Salam.

by the way, which one below is correct? no. 1 or 2 ? :think:
1. Guest arrival today is Mr. ....
2. Guest's arrival today is Mr.....
-

None is correct. The speaker makes a twist in the subject.

english learning class..
good.. :D
-

1. Guest arrival today is Mr. ....
2. Guest's arrival today is Mr.....
I think it's better to re-phrase it into: "The guest (who is) arriving today is Mr. XXX".

Review last movie you saw ==> Past tense

I'm not as good as bro roderick in grammar, nor i can explain exactly why, but i think it's more natural to say either "Review the last movie(s) you saw" or "Review the movie(s) you've see".
Using the word "last movie" indicate that it happened recently and we are emphasizing that particular time frame --> thus past tense is used.
Bro roderick, CMIIW pls...
-
what is the right phrase?
It's up to you as long as you separate the subject 'arrival' from the person Mr....
Just a sugestion,
Guest who arrivED today was Mr...
or
Guest arrivING (adjective phrase, i.e 'who has arrived') today is Mr...
Any other opinion?

I'm not an Englishman bro, so it's likely for me to make mistakes.
AFAIK, 'The last movie you've seen' is more acceptable because there's no emphasize on the time WHEN you saw the movie.
Just my two cents...
-
wow..wow i'm confuse..hahahaha
maybe let the English's master chat..haha
-

AFAIK, past tense is used when people want to emphasize when something was done, that's why often adverb is used to specify the time.
However, past perfect tense is used to emphasize that something has been done. When it was done, it's out of interest. That's why we never put adverb in past perfect tense.
AFAIK, the word "last" as used in "last movie" acts as an adverb.
Thus, IMO, it's more natural to say "Review the last movie you saw" instead of "Review the last movie you've seen".
Again, just my two cents too... :grining:
-

Well.. that's the beauty of this "game", to confuse us with something that's already confusing... :scold: :scold:
Btw, the thread you requested to be moved has been moved to the requested board. The tittle, however, has not been changed.
Please decide what tittle you want to give for that thread. :giggle: :giggle:

Let bro roderick decide what tittle should be used. :D

I asked my American friend about this and she said that 'the last movie you saw' is more natural though she doesn't know why.
So, it seems that you have a better explanation on this.
:)

Alas. I ain't no judge.

afternoon everyone. how are you today?
it's friday..what a wonderful day haha
-
For someone else, day by day come and go. Just usually, noday called wonderfulday, but sunday, monday, and so on. :D
-
you know .. 3 o'clock friday is a special hour. Jesus was in deep agony at that time as this is the hour of Jesus' death.
If possible, bro and sis,..spend a moment during that time and try to understand what Jesus has had at that time, the feeling of being left alone, being tortured and facing the death!.
As often as you hear the clock strike the third hour immerse yourself completely in My mercy, adoring and glorifying it, invoke its omnipotence for the whole world, and particularly for poor sinners, for at that moment mercy was opened wide for every soul. (sister Faustina - Devine Mercy).
Ask JESUS at that time to forgive you and to forgive your family and others for at that moment mercy was opened wide for every soul.

What's the English for the reply "Ya sudah..."?
That depends on what you really mean.
If I say "ya sudah" because I don't care anymore, I'd say "whatever" or "so be it".
But if I meant "i have done it", I'd say "I have".
But if we use Inem's style, then "ya sudah" will become: "yes after"... :lol:
-
Weekend!!!! :dance:
Wish we had 5 days for weekend and only 2 days for weekday... :whistle:

How about these 'ya sudah?'
"Kamu kan gak bilang sebelumnya? Ya sudah (kalo begitu)."
"Dia kan gak tau kalo ini bukan salahnya. Ya sudah (jangan diperpanjang)."
"Lu gak bawa duit lagi? Ya sudah (gue aja yang bayar)."
"Gak mau yang ini? Ya sudah (terserah)."
Some Indonesian phrases are quite flexible indeed.
:D

I think, that is a normal thing. In every language, something like that was happened.
I mean, the meaning of a phrase or word depend to many things, maybe to timing, or topic, or the others.
