Speaking: Longer Noun + Verb + Noun
Speaking: Longer Noun + Verb + Noun
This pattern is similar to Pattern 17, however the first noun (the subject of the sentence) can sometimes be a very long "noun phrase". For example, look at the model sentence above. Instead of "Sam drinks beer" which only has one word (Sam) as the subject, the model has four words ("My younger brother Sam") as the subject. This adds useful information and helps us to communicate more effectively. Or look at Pronunciation Practice sentence 5 below - the first noun phrase has nine words! Using noun phrases easily takes practice but when you can say them well, your speaking will be much more fluent.
