And we also offer a tutorial on shift as <a href=\"http:\/\/gre.magoosh.com\/lessons\/155-intro-to-no-shift-sentences\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a free sample<\/a> from our GRE Premium lesson page.<\/p>\n<p>English sentence shift is a complicated concept, especially for GRE test-takers whose first language is not English. ESL students who are <a href=\"https:\/\/magoosh.com\/toefl\/toefl-study-plans-and-guides\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">studying for the GRE and TOEFL<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/magoosh.com\/toefl\/how-to-study-for-the-gre-and-the-toefl-at-the-same-time\/\">at the same time<\/a> may find they still have questions about shift, even after looking over Magoosh\u2019s GRE verbal content.<\/p>\n<p>In this initial shift-for-ESL post, we\u2019ll take a careful look at what shift is and how to recognize the grammar, vocabulary, and structure of English shift sentences.<\/p>\n<p>First, let\u2019s look at the structure required for sentence shift. Shift sentences have at least two \u200b<em>clauses\u200b.<\/em> A <a href=\"https:\/\/magoosh.com\/toefl\/the-difference-between-a-clause-and-a-phrase\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">clause<\/a> is a portion of a sentence that has a subject and a \u200b<em>predicate<\/em>\u200b. A <a href=\"https:\/\/magoosh.com\/toefl\/sentences-subjects-and-predicates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">predicate<\/a> comes after the subject of a sentence, and consists of a verb plus any words that follow the verb. Sometimes a predicate can just be a verb alone.<\/p>\n<p>Before we look at complex two clause sentences with <em>shift<\/em>, let\u2019s first take a look at the basic structure of a typical, simple two-clause sentence with no shift. I have put the first clause in \u200b<strong>bold\u200b<\/strong> and put the second clause in \u200b<em>italics\u200b:\u200b<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u200b<strong>They had eaten all the pizza<\/strong> before <em>he got to the party<\/em>. \u200b<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In the first clause above, the subject is the pronoun \u200b<strong>they<\/strong>\u200b, and the predicate is \u200b<strong>had eaten all the pizza\u200b<\/strong>; \u200b<strong>had eaten\u200b<\/strong> is the verb, and\u200b <strong>all the pizza<\/strong> \u200bas the remaining part of the predicate. And in the second clause above, \u200b<em>he<\/em>\u200b is the subject, \u200b<em>got to the party<\/em> \u200bis the predicate, and \u200b<em>got\u200b<\/em> is the verb within the predicate.<\/p>\n<p>As I said before, the above example has <em>no shift<\/em>. This is because there is no significant change in meaning or tone between the two clauses. When a change in meaning <em>does<\/em> occur between two sentences, then the sentence is said to have <em>shift<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>In a shift sentence, the two clauses contain phrases which have either opposite \u200bmeanings\u200b or opposite \u200b<em>connotations<\/em>\u200b. A <a href=\"https:\/\/magoosh.com\/toefl\/understanding-english-connotation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">connotation<\/a> is the idea or feeling that a word or phrase has, in addition to its literal meaning. For example, if you say you say someone is <em>proud of<\/em> their achievements, the connotation is positive. You are suggesting the person <em>deserves<\/em> to feel good. But if you say someone is <em>smug <\/em>about their achievements, the connotation is negative. People who are <em>smug<\/em> feel <em>too good<\/em> about their achievements, in a way that is unpleasant. Both \u201csmug\u201d and \u201cproud\u201d have very similar literal definitions, but different connotations.<\/p>\n<p>Here is an example of a shift sentence using <em>smug<\/em> and <em>proud<\/em>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The soccer team that lost the game was still proud of how hard they\u2019d tried, but the winning team was smug, bragging a little too much about their victory.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The sentence above has a shift in both connotation and word meaning. \u201cSmug\u201d and \u201cproud\u201d have opposite connotations; \u201clost\u201d and \u201cwinning\u201d have opposite definitions. But with a few word changes, the meaning of the whole sentence can change significantly, so that it becomes a sentence with <em>no shift<\/em> in connotation or meaning (a <em>no-shift sentence<\/em>, in other words):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The soccer team that lost the game was still proud of how hard they\u2019d tried, and the opposing team respected the losing team\u2019s performance and pride.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A no shift sentence must have words with similar connotations and meanings in all clauses. A shift sentence can have a shift just in connotation, just in meaning, or in both connotation <em>and<\/em> meaning.<\/p>\n<p>Notice that in the second no-shift sentence, <em>but<\/em> is changed to <em>and<\/em>. This is because <em>but<\/em> is a word that signals a shift in connotation or meaning. If a word like <em>but<\/em> is placed in a no-shift sentence, the sentence will sound confusing.<\/p>\n<p>This should give you a basic idea of what <em>shift<\/em> is in sentences. In my next post on this subject, I\u2019ll take a deeper look at sentence shift specifically for <em>connotation<\/em>. And in the third and final post in this series, we\u2019ll look at shifts in meaning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over at Magoosh\u2019s student support email service (available to our premium subscribers), I get a lot of questions about \u201cshift\u201d and \u201cno-shift\u201d sentences.
