What are collocations?

Collocations are two words that go together. For example, when you go home after class, you have homework. You say “I have to DO my homework.” This is the verb that is always used with “homework”. When you get up in the morning, [...]

SHORT ANSWERS

Saying ‘Yes, I do. / No, I don’t’ in English is more polite than just saying ‘Yes. / No.’ That’s why short answers are very commonly used.

To form the short answer, you use the first word from the question. (This is either an auxiliary verb or a form of ‘be’.)

Use the long form (he does) in affirmative answers (yes).

Use the short form (he doesn’t) in negative answers (no).

Question	Affirmative	Negative
Do we know him?	Yes, we do.	No, we don’t.
Can she see me?	Yes, she can.	No, she can’t.
Have they read the book?	Yes, they have.	No, they haven’t.
Is he hungry?	Yes, he is.	No, he isn’t.

Mind: If ‘you’ is the subject of the question, ‘you’ must be replaced by ‘I’ or ‘we’.

Question	Affirmative	Negative
Do you know him?	Yes, I / we do.	No, I / we don’t.

If the question starts with ‘are you’, ‘are’ must sometimes be replaced by ‘am’.

Question	Affirmative	Negative
Are you hungry?	Yes, I am.	No, I’m not.
But: →	Yes, we are.	No, we aren’t.

A SONG TO YOU LEARN MORE

Day after day alone on the hill
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still
But nobody (1) WANTS to know him
They can see that he (2)IS just a fool
And he never (3) GIVES an answer
But the fool on the hill  (4)
SEES the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
(5)SEE the world spinning around .

Well on the way his head in a cloud
The man of a thousand voices talking percetly loud
But nobody ever (6)HEARS him
Or the sound he (7) APPEARS to make
And he never (8) SEEMS to notice
But the fool on the hill
(9)SEES the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
(10)SEE the world spinning around.

And nobody (11)SEEMS to like him
They can tell what he (12) WANTS to do
And he never (13) SHOWS his feelings
But the fool on the hill
(14)SEES the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
(15)SEE the world spinning around.

Round and round and round
He never (16) LISTENS to them
He knows that they’re the fools
The don’t (17) LIKE him
But the fool on the hill
(18)SEES the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
(19)SEE the world spinning around.

MY ROUTINE

My routine is not so much interesting. I wake up early to work. I take a shower and go to my first work and normally I have a breakfast in the way. I start work at seven and thirty o`clorck and finish at twelve am. I have lunch and go to my other job. There I start work at  twelve and fourty-five o`clorck and there I work with babies and this is fantastic, but, beleive me, it is a hard routine, but is so good. After this, I go to the university. And to finish I have to go home to take a shower, have lunch, brush my teeth and the best, I go to bed.

PRESENT SIMPLE

O presente simples pode ser usado para expressar:

1- uma ação habitual, ou seja, aquilo que costumamos fazer sempre:

I always leave home at 7:00. (Eu sempre saio de casa às 7h).
They generally have lunch at the shopping mall. (Eles geralmente almoçam no shopping).
I never work on Sundays. (Eu nunca trabalho aos domingos).

2- uma verdade universal:

Babies cry. (Bebês choram).
Dogs bark. (Cachorros latem).
Birds sing. (Pássaros cantam).

O“do” e o “does” são os dois auxiliares do presente simples, e eles sempre devem ser usados em frases negativas e interrogativas

Afirmações

Para as primeiras e segundas pessoas, o verbo fica igual à forma infinitiva (mas sem a partícula “to”), nas terceiras pessoas, há a necessidade de adicionar ao fim do verbo as extensões “s“, “es” ou “ies“.

Exemplos:
- He washes the car (ele lava o carro)
- I like internet (eu gosto de internet)

Interrogações

Para fazer frases interrogativas, vamos usar o auxiliar DO (ou DOES, para as terceiras pessoas) antes do verbo. Exemplos:

- Do you go to school ? (Você vai para a escola ?)
- Does she work ? (Ela trabalha? )

Negações

Para tornar uma frase negativa, é só adicionar o “NOT” depois do DO ou DOES:

- I Do not (don’t) work (eu não trabalho)
- She does not (doesn’t) work (ela não trabalha)

Some dialogues

Hi Paul! How are you? Oi Paul! Como você está? 

               I am fine, long time no see! Estou bem, a quanto tempo!

               Are you still living in New York? Você ainda está morando em Nova Iorque?

             No, I'm not. I am living in Chicago now. Não, eu não estou. Eu estou morando em Chicago agora.

               How about your sister Jessica? E a sua irmã, a Jessica?

               She is visiting some friends in Brazil. Ela está visitando alguns amigos no Brasil.

Palavras simples

Alguns exemplos de palavras que geram confusão aos brasileiros:

house (ráus)  - casa         com         halls (róls) - salão

cow (cáu) - vaca              com          call (cól) - chamar, telefonar

soap (sôup) - sabão         com        soup (súp) - sopa

red (Réd) - vermelho     com     head (réd) - cabeça

keys (kís) - chaves         com         kiss (kêss) - beijo

ship (chêp) - navio      com         chip (tchêp) - batata frita

I post these words just because sometimes those can cause a confuse.
