Você sabe como se diz pagar multa em inglês? Uma curiosidade: falamos a palavra FINE para multa. Isso mesmo! Pagar multa é FINE. Leia esta diálogo e depois veja o vídeo abaixo. Uma situação onde um estrangeiro atravessa a rua fora da faixa de pedestres. Ele recebe uma multa, mas a policial o perdoa desta vez.
Police woman: Excuse me, sir. I noticed you crossed the street outside of the crosswalk, which is against the law. You’re required to pay a fine of $10 for this offense.
Tourist: Oh, I’m sorry, officer. I didn’t know about that law. I’m a foreigner, and the rules here are different from where I come from.
Police woman: I understand that, but it’s essential to be aware of local traffic regulations when you’re in a new place. Ignorance of the law isn’t typically an excuse, but I’ll let you off with a warning this time since you’re a tourist. Please use the crosswalks in the future to stay safe.
Tourist: Thank you, officer. I appreciate your understanding, and I’ll make sure to follow the rules from now on.
Police woman: You’re welcome. Have a great day, and stay safe!

Teacher: Good morning, John. How are you today?
John: Good morning, teacher. I’m doing well, thank you. I’ve been thinking about how technology has changed the way we communicate and the expressions we use in English.
Teacher: That’s an interesting topic, John. Technology has indeed had a significant impact on our language. What expressions have caught your attention?
John: Well, for starters, there’s “to Google something.” It’s become so common to say, “I’ll Google it” when we want to look up information.
Teacher: Absolutely, John. “Googling” has become synonymous with searching for information online. Another one is “to binge-watch.” People use it when they watch multiple episodes of a TV series in one sitting.
John: Right, and speaking of TV series, there’s “spoiler alert” when you want to warn someone not to reveal key plot details.
Teacher: Excellent point, John. “Spoiler alert” is crucial for avoiding those unwanted plot revelations. How about “to go viral”? It’s often used when something becomes extremely popular on the internet.
John: Yes, “going viral” means spreading rapidly online. And then there’s “to unfriend” on social media when you remove someone from your friend list.
Teacher: That’s correct, John. It’s the opposite of “to friend” someone. And don’t forget “to download” and “to upload,” which are fundamental in the digital age.
John: Of course, downloading is getting files from the internet, and uploading is sending files to it. And what about “to swipe left” or “to swipe right” on dating apps?
Teacher: Great examples, John. Swiping left usually means you’re not interested, while swiping right shows you’re interested in someone’s profile. And for a more recent one, “Zoom fatigue” has become prevalent with all the online meetings we have now.
John: Yes, Zoom fatigue is when you’re tired from too many virtual meetings. And finally, “to be tech-savvy” is important in today’s job market, meaning you’re knowledgeable about technology.
Teacher: Absolutely, John. Being tech-savvy is a valuable skill. You’ve covered some essential tech-related expressions today. Keep up the good work in exploring the ever-evolving world of English expressions related to technology.
John: Thank you, Teacher. I’ll continue to stay up-to-date with these expressions as technology continues to advance.

Teacher: Good morning, John. How are you today?
John: Good morning, Ricardo. I’m doing well, thank you. I’ve been studying English grammar, and I have a question about the use of articles like ‘the,’ ‘a,’ and ‘an.’
Teacher: That’s great to hear that you’re studying! I’d be happy to help. What’s your question?
John: Well, I understand the basic rules for ‘a’ and ‘an,’ but I’m a bit confused about when to use ‘the.’
Teacher: ‘The’ can be a little tricky, but I’ll try to clarify it for you. We use ‘the’ when we are talking about something specific, something that both the speaker and the listener know about or have in mind. For example, “The car is in the garage” means that there’s a particular car we’re talking about, and both you and I know which car it is. Another example: “The cat is on the bed.” It means there is a cat on the bed that we can see at this moment.
John: I see. So, when do we use ‘a’ and ‘an’?
Teacher: ‘A’ and ‘an’ are used when we’re talking about something in a general or non-specific way. ‘A’ is used before words that start with consonant sounds, like “a book,” and ‘an’ is used before words that start with vowel sounds, like “an apple.” More examples: “a computer” and “an eagle”.
John: Got it. So, it’s “a book” and “an apple.” But what about cases like “an hour” or “a university“? They don’t start with a vowel letter.
Teacher: Ah, good question. You’ve picked up on a special case. We use ‘an’ when the word following it begins with a vowel sound, not necessarily a vowel letter. In the case of “hour,” the ‘h’ is silent, so it sounds like it starts with a vowel sound, and we say “an hour.” Similarly, with “university,” it starts with a ‘y’ sound, which is a vowel sound, so we say “a university.”
John: Are there any other special cases?
Teacher: Yes! An honest person. Honest is another special case because the letter H is silent too. A Europpean country. Europpen starts with a vowel, but its sound is similar to a consonant. In this case the letter Y. YOUROPPEAN (that should be the best pronunciation).
John: I see, so it’s about the sound, not just the letter. That makes sense.
Teacher: Exactly! You’re catching on quickly. Is there anything else you’d like to know about articles, or do you have any more questions?
John: No, that clears things up for me, Ricardo. Thank you for your help.
Teacher: You’re very welcome, John. Don’t hesitate to ask if you have any more questions in the future. Keep up the good work with your English studies!
