This is a fun game people often play at parties. You can use it to practise the past participle.I'll start by asking a question starting with "Have you ever...?". The first person to comment will answer "yes" or "no" and then ask another "Have you ever" question. The next person will answer that question and write another question.The game can go on and on for days, months, or years...Remember to answer the question from the last comment. Let's avoid taboo subjects and foul language. (I'll delete any comments that I don't approve.)Let's begin!"Have you ever been to Canada?"(The game is well under way. Don't answer this question about Canada. Answer the question from the last person who left a comment. Make sure to look at the last comment, not the first.)---------------------------------Grammar tip: To write a proper "have you ever" sentence you will need to know the past participle (not simple past) of the verb you use. Look it up in a search if you aren't sure ("past participle swim"). Even native speakers use the wrong ones sometimes!Example: go=been; write=written; swim=swumHave you ever been to Mexico?Have you ever written a love story?Have you ever swum in the ocean?
1) use "to" before a place: "Have you ever been to France, Mexico..."
2) Also don't forget to use the past participle of the verb after "ever". I challenge someone to go through all of these "have you evers" in the comment section and find all of the verb errors. You can correct them in the comment section like this:
feel=felt
eat=
To answer Marini, yes, at times I have felt desperate to move to a new place. Have you ever forgotten to do something very important?
Very interesting "tidbit" Manzar! Someone told me recently that in Canada "the new thing to do" at weddings is to have goldfish on the tables. At the end of the night someone from the table eats it!
