Simple sentences can be expended by using participial phrases. A participial
phrase is a phrase that looks like a verb but actually functions like an adjectice. It
modifies a noun or a pronoun in the sentence. It makes your writting more stylish.
A participle can be either a present participle ( active idea) or a past participle
passive idea).
In the present lecture, we explain the use of the participial phrase, its function in
the sentence as well well how to avoid writing dangling participials ( wrong
participles).

Countable nouns are nouns that can be counted and have singular and plural forms; uncountable nouns, on the other hand, can not be counted and do not have plural forms. it is very important for learners to know how countable nouns form their plural, most specifically those that have irregular plurals, and to identify those that are noncount.
