Boa tarde! Novo tema amanha… Jobs or sport? You decide by commenting below – I’ll do the one that has the most ‘votes’ in favour!
Last day on the meio-ambiente (=environment)
WHich is the best ending for this sentence: Há muitas quintas no … a) na cidade b) na lua c) no campo
Tip: Mais + adjective is how we compare. E.g. mais fácil(=easier). Some are different: maior=bigger (not mais grande)
Bom dia! Which is bigger – uma montanha ou (=or) uma colina? -um rio ou uma ribeira? – um prédio ou um aranha-céus?
Tip: Don’t worry too much about getting it all 100% right, you’ll gradually fine tune as you get more experience. Speaking a language is not like driving a car – mistakes aren’t fatal! Always have a go! Students who speak the most make the fastest progress.
Today’s quiz: Unscramble the letters to find a word for something that’s very useful if you’ve got a car (but not so good for the environment!)
- t a u o s a d e r t a
Bom dia! Put the words into two groups: cidade (town/city) or campo (countryside): quinta, praça, centro comercial, celeiro, prado, trânsito
Tip: When you learn a new word, try thinking about how you would use it, put it in a sentence, think of words/phrases you would use it with. E.g. campo. Gosto de viver no campo, O campo é bonito, Não há muito para fazer no campo, O parque de campismo é no campo…
Boa tarde! O internet est muito lento hoje… (the internet is very slow today) Novo tema hoje – the environment
Which of these is not part of our natural environment? praias, lagos, cidades, montanhas, rios
Tip: To make a word plural (thee is imore than one) you add -s to words that end in vowels (praias, rios etc.) and -es to words that end in consonants (computadores, mulheres etc.) Ther exceptions are words ending in -m, which take off the m and add -ns (homens, jardins etc.) and words ending in -l, which take off the l and all -is ( seasonais, azuis etc)
