Let’s Talk About Why and For What!
By Carla Martínez
Reason (because), Purpose (to / in order to) & Tag Questions
2
BECAUSE → Razón
[Resultado] + because + [Razón]
Estructura general:
Explicar por qué sucede algo.
Función:
El verbo va en el tiempo que corresponda según la idea. No cambia por usar because.
Regla sobre el verbo:
3
I’m tired because I didn’t sleep well.
(Presente + pasado: el resultado es ahora, la razón fue antes.)
Example 1
She’s happy because it’s Friday.
(Presente + presente.)
Example 2
They were sad because they lost the game.
(Pasado + pasado.)
Example 3
4
Importante
Because une dos ideas completas (sujeto + verbo).
Incorrecto: I’m happy because the weather.
Correcto: I’m happy because the weather is nice.
5
TO / IN ORDER TO → Propósito
[Acción principal] + to / in order to + [verbo base]
Estructura general:
Explicar para qué haces algo (propósito o intención).
Función:
Después de to o in order to siempre va el verbo en su forma base (sin “-ing” ni tiempo verbal).
Regla sobre el verbo:
6
I study hard to pass the exam.
She goes to the gym to be healthy.
He called me in order to ask for help.
Ejemplos afirmativos
She studies every day to get good grades. (presente simple)
They woke up early to see the sunrise. (pasado simple)
He is studying to become a doctor. (presente continuo)
Ejemplos con tiempo verbal diferente
7
Formas negativas
Cuando el propósito es negativo (para no hacer algo), usamos: in order not to
Estructura: [Acción principal] + in order not to + [verbo base]
Ejemplos:
He left early in order not to miss the bus.
I closed the door in order not to disturb anyone.
Aunque en inglés informal a veces se dice “to not + verbo”, se prefiere usar las formas anteriores en un contexto más formal.
Incorrecto (en escritura formal): I left early to not miss the bus.
Correcto: I left early in order not to miss the bus.
8
TAG QUESTIONS → Confirmación o acuerdo
[Oración principal] + [Tag]
Estructura general:
Verificar o confirmar información.
Función:
9
Rules :)
El tiempo de la tag debe coincidir con el verbo principal.
She is your teacher, isn’t she?
(presente con be)
You were late, weren’t you? (pasado con be)
You study English, don’t you?
(presente simple)
He studied yesterday, didn’t he?
(pasado simple)
Regla 2: Tiempo verbal
Si la oración es positiva, la etiqueta (tag) es negativa.
You are happy, aren’t you?Si la oración es negativa, la etiqueta es positiva.
You aren’t tired, are you?
Regla 1: Positivo ↔ Negativo
Truco:
El auxiliar o el verbo be del enunciado se “copia” en la pregunta.
Si no hay auxiliar (como en “You like pizza”), se usa do/does/did según el tiempo.
