I. Lý thuyết cách làm Chia động từ Tiếng Anh

1. Tổng hợp kiến thức trọng tâm

1.1. Động từ là gì?

Động từ là một trong những thành phần chính của một câu hoặc câu hỏi trong tiếng Anh.

Trong thực tế, chúng ta không thể thành lập một câu mà thiếu đi động từ trong câu. Động từ là những từ biểu thị cho một hành động, một sự xuất hiện, hay một trạng thái nào đó. Dưới đây là một số loại động từ trong tiếng Anh và cách sử dụng.

1.2. Công thức

- S + V + O

Gần như tất cả các câu trong tiếng Anh đều chứa một chủ ngữ (Subject – S) và một động từ (Verb – V). Đằng sau động từ có thể có hoặc không có tân ngữ (Object – O), tuỳ thuộc vào loại động từ dưới đây.

1.3. Các hình thức của động từ trong tiếng Anh

Intransitive verb (Nội động từ)

Nội động từ diễn tả hành động dừng lại với người nói hay người thực hiện nó. Nội động từ không có tân ngữ trực tiếp đi kèm theo. Nếu có tân ngữ thì phải có giới từ đi trước, tân ngữ này được gọi là tân ngữ của giới từ (prepositional object), không phải là tân ngữ trực tiếp.

Ví dụ: Children are playing in the garden. (Những đứa trẻ đang chơi trong vườn)

Transitive verbs (Ngoại động từ)

Ngoại động từ diễn tả hành động tác động trực tiếp lên một người khác hoặc một sự vật và được theo sau bởi một tân ngữ.

Ngoại động từ luôn luôn cần một danh từ hoặc đại từ theo sau để làm nghĩa của câu trở nên đầy đủ.

Ví dụ: I ate an apple. (Tôi đã ăn một quả táo)

Trong câu trên, chúng ta không thể nói “I ate” rồi ngưng lại vì câu sẽ tối nghĩa. Danh từ đi theo ngay sau ngoại động từ được gọi là tân ngữ trực tiếp (“an apple” là tân ngữ trực tiếp của “ate”).

Các động từ vừa là ngoại động từ, vừa là nội động từ

Có một số động từ vừa được xem là nội động từ, vừa được xem là ngoại động từ như learn, study, write, sing, leave

1.4. Vị trí

Động từ thường đứng sau chủ ngữ

Ví dụ: She worked hard. (Mẹ tôi làm việc vất vả.)

Động từ thường đứng sau trạng từ chỉ tần suất (Adverb of Frequency) nếu là động từ thường.

Ví dụ: He always gets up early

Các trạng từ chỉ tần suất thường gặp:

- Always: luôn luôn

- Usually: thường thường

- Often : thường

- Sometimes: Đôi khi

- Seldom: Hiếm khi

- Never: Không bao giờ

Động từ “Tobe” sẽ đứng trước trạng từ chỉ tần suất.

Ví dụ: It’s usually hot in summer. (Mùa hè trời thường nóng.)

1.5. Cách chia đông từ trong tiếng Anh

Thêm đuôi V-ed

- Những cách thức thêm – ED sau đây được dùng để thành lập thì Quá khứ đơn (Simple Past) và Quá khứ phân từ (Past Participle):

- Thông thường: Thêm ED vào động từ nguyên mẫu. Ví dụ: to talk –> She talked about her family last night.

- Động từ tận cùng bằng E –> chỉ thêm D. Ví dụ: to live –> He lived in Hanoi for 2 years.

- Động từ tận cùng bằng phụ âm + Y –> Đổi Y thành IED. Ví dụ: to study –> They studied in the library last weekends.

- Động từ một âm tiết tận cùng bằng 1 nguyên âm + 1 phụ âm và động từ được nhấn mạnh (stressed) ở âm tiết cuối –> Gấp đôi phụ âm cuối trước khi thêm ED. Ví dụ: to stop –> stopped

- Một số động từ 2 âm tiết, tận cùng bằng L, được nhấn mạnh (stressed) ở âm tiết thứ nhất cũng gấp đôi phụ âm cuối trước khi thêm ED. Ví dụ:

+ to travel –> travelled

+ to kidnap –> kidnapped

+ to worship –> worshipped

Cách phát âm V-ed

Có tới 3 cách để phát âm từ có -ed tận cùng:

- /id/: sau các âm /t/ và /d/

+ to want –> wanted

+ to decide –> decided

- /t/: sau các phụ âm câm (voiceless consonant sounds)

+ to ask –> asked

+ to finish –> finished

- /d/: sau các nguyên âm (vowel sounds) và phụ âm tỏ (voiced consonant sounds)

+ to answer –> answered

+ to open –> opened

Cách thêm -ing sau động từ

V-ing được hình thành để tạo nên hiện tại phân từ (present participle), trong các thì tiếp diễn (Continuous Tenses) và để tạo thành động danh từ (Gerund). Có 6 trường hợp thêm ING:

- Thông thường: thêm -ING và cuối động từ nguyên mẫu.

+ to walk –> walking

+ to do –> doing

- Động từ tận cùng bằng E –> bỏ E trước khi thêm -ING

+ to live –> living

+ to love –> loving

- Động từ tận cùng bằng -IE –> đổi thành -Y trước khi thêm -ING.

+ to die –> dying

+ to lie –> lying

- Động từ một âm tiết tận cùng bằng 1 nguyên âm + 1 phụ âm và động từ được nhấn mạnh (stressed) ở âm tiết cuối –> Gấp đôi phụ âm cuối trước khi thêm -ING.

+ to run –> running

+ to cut –> cutting

- Một số động từ 2 âm tiết, tận cùng bằng L, được nhấn mạnh (stressed) ở âm tiết thứ nhất cũng gấp đôi phụ âm cuối trước khi thêm -ING.

+ to travel –> travelling

+ to worship → to worshipping

- Một số động từ có các thêm -ING đặc biệt để tránh nhầm lẫn:

+ to dye (nhuộm) –> dyeing khác với to die (chết) –> dying

+ to singe (cháy xém) –> singeing khác với to sing (hát) –> singing
