☆【Review Lesson 5 (p. 122) and Lesson 6 (p. 142) 】☆

★ [~て] – Listing Successive Actions or Events

1. The Main Function of [Verb-て] [VERB-て] is used to connect two or more verbs. [VERB-て] is used after all but the last

sentence in a sequence. By connecting [VERB-て] you can:o List successive actions or events. o List simultaneous actions, where the first action indicates the means of

accomplishing the second.o Give a reason or explanation.o Used with ~ください　enables you to a favor or request of someone.

2. Style, Tense, and Mood. The style of the sentence (formal or casual), and its tense and mood are only expressed

by the final verb of the series, not by [VERB-て].
