Example:
I do exercise every day.

Are the words that can be combined to form compound nouns. They normally have two parts, the second part identifies the object or person in question. The first part tell us what kind of object or person it is, or what it's purpose is.
Example:
police, man- policeman
Have/ get something done
It describes situations where we want someone else to do something for us (as a favor, or as a service we pay for)
Example:
I must get / have my hair cut.
UNIT 5- TROUGH THE GRAPEVINE
Reported speech
If we report what another person has said, we usually do not use the speaker’s exact words (direct speech), but reported (indirect) speech. Therefore, you need to learn how to transform direct speech into reported speech. The structure is a little different depending on whether you want to transform a statement, question or request.
Reporting questions
We use to report what people say, we usually change the tense of the verbs to reflect that we are reporting and not giving direct speech.
Example:
"Do you like working in teams?"- He asked if I liked working in teams
