Lesson: Essentials/41

Grammar

Hoje vamos aprender sobre conjunctions. Conjunctions são palavras que ligam duas ou mais palavras, frases ou cláusulas. Como o nosso objetivo é aprender a falar inglês com fluência e não a dar definições gramaticais rigorosas, vamos deixar de lado toda a discussão sobre como classificar conjunções e apenas ver alguns exemplos e aprender a usá-las na prática.

As conjunções que veremos hoje são: and, but, or, so e because.

Estas palavras são tão úteis que dá vontade de colocar logo todas elas aqui. Mas aprendendo estas cinco já melhoremos muito a nossa capacidade de comunicação.

Vejamos alguns exemplos:

Larry finished eating dinner and started studying for the exam.
- Larry terminou de jantar e começou a estudar para a prova.
She had a lot of free time but she did not study very much.
- Ela tinha bastante tempo livre mas não estudou muito.
You can stay here with me or go to the mall with your father.
- Você pode ficar aqui comigo ou ir para o shopping com o seu pai.
We didn't have time to have breakfast so we decided to stop at a restaurant on the way.
- Nós não tivemos tempo de tomar café da manhã então decidimos parar em um restaurante no caminho.
