Some conversational structures

April 2, 2017 pdf

Use this structure if you are willing to provide assistance.

  • I’ll help you with the housework.
  • I’ll help you with the cleaning.
  • I’ll help you with the shopping.
  • I’ll help you with the packing.

I’ll help you + verb

  • I’ll help you find your keys. (OR I will help you to find your keys.)
  • I’ll help you find a better job.
