He can do any role with ease. b) Vinitha: Hi Sunitha, yesterday I watched the movie, 'Emitivichitram' on the TV. What a movie it is! / How good it is! Sunitha: I saw it long ago.

Eg: a) Don't you dare talk to me like that again! (= I warn you not to talk to me like that again.) b) How dare you to talk like that to me?

He bought a DD the other day, for a lakh rupees to make some payment/to pay someone. Otherwise he would have lost it/that amount too. He always deposits money into the banks and never withdraws. Siva: What's he going to do? Vasu: He gave/issued a cheque to some one. He wanted to credit this amount into bank, so that even if he presented the cheque there would be enough balance, and the cheque would not be returned/dishonoured/bounce. Now there isn't enough balance. So he is worried that the bank might dishonour/return the cheque. Siva: Can't you help him? you draw from your deposits and give him the money. Vasu: Me? (Do) you think I am Kubera. The little money I have is in term deposits you give him; I'll stand guarantee. Siva: I just joked. Don't worry.

Now look at the following sentences from the conversation at the beginning of the lesson: 1) I could have scored still higher marks. 2) I couldn't (could not) have scored so high 3) Many couldn't have passed 4) The college wouldn't have become so famous 5) He would have put you in some other college 6) You would have faced problems 7) I should have been at college by 10 Look at the underline verbs in the sentences above: 1) Could have scored 2) couldn't have scored, 3) couldn't have passed 4) wouldn't have become 5) would have put 6) would have faced 7) should have been. We know the uses of verbs No. 4, 5, 6 and 7. Now let's look at verbs No. 1, 2, and 3. We see that the verb form is could have + past participle.
