Ejemplos de otro tipo de verb patterns

Ya hemos visto los más básicos dentro del grupo de verb patterns varias veces. Ahora quiero enseñar otro tipo de verb pattern. Suele ocurrir cuando tanto el sujeto como el complemento directo de la frase se refiere a una persona. 

Por ejemplo:

I want you to call me as soon as possible. 

She asked me to send her an email.

En español se hace este tipo de frase con “que,” a saber: “Quiero que te vayas.” La frase en inglés es un poco más larga, y el “que” no se traduce. 

Este tipo de frase funciona con varios verbos: want, would like, hope, expect, need, ask.

La estructura básica es:

Sujeto (persona) + verb + complemento (otra persona) + to + infinitive.

I want you to go away.

He asked her to marry him, and she asked him to buy her a mojito.

I need you to help me.

Funciona igual en pasado, en pregunta, en negativo etc.

Would you like me to make dinner?

I asked her to bring a bottle of wine.

What are you going to ask her to bring to the party?

What would you like her to bring?

She doesn’t need you to wash the dishes.

She’ll never ask you to come round for a drink.

He doesn’t want his mother to find out.

My father always expected me to become a lawyer, and my mother wanted me to be a chef.

He asked his boss to give him a raise. 

Esto es suficiente para hoy. Practica y disfruta!

Hasta pronto.
