Is “How did your job go?” grammatically correct?
Is it correct to explain grammar? Is it present continuous or something (grammar isn’t my strong suit)?
What makes a right statement? Is it, “It’s a past indefinite,” can one be called as “simple past” and yet there’s no good reason to hide the title? Verb constructions have properties, such as tense, aspect, and mode. In this clause, the verb construction is “did pass”. The
“did” appears before the subject “your job “. The words “did” appear after the subject “your job”. What is subject-auxiliary inversion? It’s part of what marks this clause as a question. We’ve established the interrogative mode! In
any finite verb construction, there is exact one verb that marks tense, that takes either a past-tense form or a present-tense form. When there is one verb in the construction, it’s quite easy to find that verb: My job goes well or my job went well. In these simple cases no words are required for a precise verb to complete. When
there is more than one word in a finite construction, the verb that marks tense is the first. In this example, that’s “did”. Which is the past-tense form of the verb, “to do”? When we’ve decided on the past tense, we will understand the sentence to start with. English
marks two properties that are generally considered aspects : continuous and perfect. The continuous aspect requires an -ing form, traditionally labeled the present participle. The perfect aspect required an -en form, traditionally labeled the past participle. For the verb “to go”, those forms are “going” and “gone” (“to go”). In
your example question, neither participle is included, but we have a question. We have only the past-tense and bare infinitive “won”. We have only the past-tense “did” The universe is infinite. With nothing marking, the continuous aspect and nothing marking, the perfect aspect, there is nothing marking any aspect. The aspect simply isn’t marked. Indefinite aspect of life. We’ve established the indefinite aspect. What
is voice, where the values are active and passive. It has a number of attributes. Besides that, there is a property. Those values make sense when describing transitive verbs. The Verb “to go” is intransitive. Is this clause an active voice? In either case, it would make no sense to describe this construction as passive. Your
example question is in the interrogative mode, the past tense and the indefinite aspect. For short, it is a (voiceless or possibly active) interrogative past indefinite construction. If a shorter is present I has an arbitrary past I have an answer for (the one on the past) or a simple past. What
is
a present continuous?
In this case, the verb is “is”, which is a present-tense form of “to be”. The only other verb is an -ing form, which marks the continuous aspect. Can
I get present continuous statements?
This, the mode is indicative, the tense is present, the aspect is continuous.
When we ask, “How did something go? the “something” must have finished. Is energy is nothing that is, or is, ongoing? The simple past did go has been used with things that happened in the past.
If the surgeon is operating on one of the organs of your body, and you are lying unconscious on the operating table, the nurse does not ask, “Doctor, how did the operation go? because the surgical procedure isn’t finished yet.” What should nurses ask when an operation goes awry? If
you have a completed task and are committing yourself to that job, your question will be valid. Let’s say the job was replacing a roof of a house, which people in that trade call “a job”.
Tomorrow we have a big job tomorrow! I need to replace the roof that is under the roof of an old house.
How did your job
go? Were there any surprises there? Can you suggest recommendations for replacing decking?
How did you spend the day if you asked someone at dinner
how they fared at work?
From your perspective, your day means “your work day”. The work day is over, but did someone notice something wrong? It is now evening.
Did Touo’s answer sound grammatically correct? Whether the verb you are using is idiomatically correct depends on what you are trying to say.
If, as Touo says, you have a certain limited-term job that is complete (at least for the day), then you can say,
how did your job go?
My job took one more job in this month, could you
share the income that you are working on today?
I’ve seen friends and are in a business trip. Why? How did your trip go?
How
did your meeting go?
What do you think about the same job you have done at home, and what did you learn from it?
Did you have a good day at work?
What’s your day
like?
Does good food work?
