Visit http://www.flo-joe.co.uk or http://www.ieltsspeaking.co.uk
Welcome to this 10 minute video lesson about English verb patterns. English verbs are often followed by another verb or by an object plus a verb. Depending on what the first verb is, the pattern that follows can be completely different from one verb to the next.

Take the verb ‘suggest’ for example. Is it ‘suggest to do something’, ‘suggest doing something’, ‘suggest someone does something’? With so many verbs each following a particular pattern, it’s no wonder students end up making mistakes.

This lesson will look at some common verb patterns and give you the chance to see if you can spot mistakes in advanced Speakers' use of verb patterns.
