The English Thread - O Tópico em Inglês

[JFML]

It was a present sentence.
Thanks one more time for advice me.

Well, if you're using the present, you should read this :

Yes, now that you said that, i realized that it could be.

However, if he is using the present, the sentence is wrong anyway. It should be: "We are learning(...)"


P.S.- You must write things in english

[girl92]

With this level of English, it is clear that we all studied in public schools ...

Intelligence can't be measured on where we studied

[LIC]

Now i'm listening a pop bulgarian music made by Anrea:

I love this kind of music. It's pop, also electronical, and the girl is beautiful xD

[omnibus]

I like a portuguese song about some very important things: money and sports (gymnastics)!

It goes something like:
"The end of the month is already here.
... And we're always stretching!"

By: kicks and kicks

[girl92]

I changed the keyboard idiom for write better in this thread ahahahah

[LIC]

Intelligence can't be measured onwhere we studied

I think it's: only for the place...

Correct me if i'm wrong.
But i understood the idea
We studied in public schools, but now we are writting in a private place

[omnibus]

Do you wish to ensure english writing performance skills?

Choose associated contract schools!

It was a present sentence.

Advising me...

[JFML]

Intelligence can't be measured on where we studied

You can't say it like that.

First, you are not measuring. You are not using a tape! So, you should be using the verb "evaluate".

Second, it's not "on", it's "by".

So, the line you wanted to write should be like this:

"Intelligence can't be evaluated by where we studied"

[omnibus]

Or, all that glitters ain't gold
(Prince said it)

[JFML]

Or, all that glitters ain't gold
(Prince said it)

What do you mean by that?

[omnibus]

What do you mean by that?

it's just a song by prince, meaning "nem tudo o que reluz é ouro"; não julgues o livro pela capa etc.

É que mesmo na escola pública tive aulas de tradução de inglês e traduzíamos ditados

Oh god..I just can't understand this grammar....

Nice thread!

Despite living in the UK for more than ten years now I still struggle to write in a proper way...
In order to avoid errors in words and sentences I need to double check first on Google specialy because portuguese language is back to front to the english language.
If all of us use this thread a little bit every day in order to practice our English I believe we all are going to get a degree in English....

[girl92]

I would like so much to live in U.K for a few months just for learning definitely the language

[girl92]

Coool...
And why don't create a french,spain ou german thread? It would be cool too :p

I would love to live in the UK for a few months to learn English fluently.
It sounds better like that.

[ZylmhuinVII]

Good afternoon mates! LIC, that music is very inteeresting! And the video, too!

Well, I have now finished the lunch-time. I have eat one sandwitch of cheese and chouryção. I loved it! And, in the end, I have drink a bit of juice from Sunquick, inside my water bottle. It was nice, too.

Now I'm on the computer. Next, I will work. So, I'm enjoying the last few minutes here, on the Forum Autohoje.

Goodbye!

English verbs are so easy it hurts to see them mistreated like that.

There are about 35 irregular ones, all the others in paste tense end in "ed".

So, to eat, ate eaten.

Therefore: you've eaten, you ate.
To drink, drank, drunk

Not with all the crap that i see in this thread...

Is Girl92´s avatar from Asterix?

Exactly. One of the most common mistakes is related to the inversion of the subject and verb when asking a question.

"You are ok." - "Are you ok?"
"She was wasted." - "Was she wasted?"
"He is drunk" - "Is he drunk?"

[33Stradale]

There are about 35 irregular ones, all the others in paste tense end in "ed".

It's more than that. A little over 100 in basic standard english, but almost 350 if you step into erudite english. Nonetheless, portuguese language´s irregular verbs are a few thousands.

Upssy!

I stand corrected!

Great examples, naughty girl!
