VERB TO BE
O verbo to be é o verbo mais conhecido do mundo, corresponde no português aos verbos

“ser” ou “estar”. Ele é utilizado para descrever e identificar pessoas e objetos e nas
expressões de tempo, de lugar e idade.
7
Existem três variações do verbo TO BE, são eles, AM, IS e ARE. O uso deles depende do
pronome que será utilizado na frase.
VERB TO BE
AFFIRMATIVE NEGATIVE INTERROGATIVE
I am am not Am I ?
YOU are are not (aren’t) Are you ?
HE is is not (isn’t) Is he ?
SHE is is not (isn’t) Is she?
IT is is not (isn’t) Is it ?
WE are are not (aren’t) Are we ?
YOU are are not (aren’t) Are you ?
THEY are are not (aren’t) Are they ?
Lembre-se que o Inglês deve sempre colocar o assunto. Em uma frase positiva ou negativa
deve seguir a fórmula ( sujeito + verbo + complemento) em que o complemento é opcional.
Ex: Ela é bonita
FORMA AFIRMATIVA
Na forma afirmativa, a frase é construída por sujeito + verbo to be + complemento.
Ex: I am a good boy. (Eu sou um bom garoto)
He is my friend. (Ele é meu amigo)
They are doctors. (Eles são médicos)
FORMA NEGATIVA
Já na forma negativa, é acrescentado o NOT, pois ele dá o sentido de negação da frase, o NOT
sempre vai entrar após o verbo TO BE usado. Estrutura = Pronome + Verto TO BE + NOT +
Complemento
Ex: He is not my father. (Ele não é meu pai.)
I am not a photographer. (Eu não sou fotografo.)
They are notstudents. (Eles não são estudantes.)
FORMA INTERROGATIVA
8
Na forma interrogativa, o verbo To Be que é o verbo principal da frase,será posto antes do

ronome utilizado e sua tradução não sofrerá mudança, pois só será alterada a estrutura da
frase e não o seu sentido. No português, nós só precisamos mudar a nossa entonação.
Estrutura = Verbo TO BE + Pronome + Complemento
Ex: Is he a good person? (Ele é uma boa pessoa?)
Is she your teacher? (Ela é suaprofessora?).
Are you crazy? (Você é louco?)
O verbo to be significa ser e estar em português

e, além desses dois significados, este verbo é EX: I am Italian. (Eu sou Italiano.)
muito usado no sentido de ficar (tornar-se).

FAMILY MEMBERS
Se você estuda inglês, você certamente já deve saber falar sobre sua immediate
Family ou close family (família direta). Afinal, esses são os mais próximos de vocês: mother
(mãe), father (pai), brothers (irmãos) e sisters (irmãs). Isso, claro, se você for single (solteiro).
Pois caso seja married (casado), sua “immediate family” deve incluir ainda seu husband
(marido) ou wife (esposa) e também seus sons (filhos) e daughters (filhas). Esse núcleo
familiar em inglês é chamado de core family ou nuclear family.
O restante da família, seus relatives ou também relations (parentes) inclui todos os
membros da sua immediate family e também seus grandparents (avós), greatgrandparents
(bisavós), uncles (tios), aunts (tias), cousins (primos e primas), nephew (sobrinho), niece
(sobrinha). Não podem ficar de fora os grandsons (netos) e muito menos as granddaughters
(netas).
Todo esse pessoal que faz parte da sua close family são também considerados seus
blood relatives (parentes de sangue). Vale dizer ainda que os parentes distantes são os
distant relatives. Se você não se lembra disso, anote ai que um bom exemplo de distant
relative é um second cousin (primo de segundo grau) ou mesmo um distant cousin (primo
distante).
Quando você se casa com o amor da sua vida você ganha de tabela os in- laws
(parentes do cônjuge). Você então se torna um son-in-law (genro) ou uma daughter- in-law
(nora).entra em cena a famosa mother-in-law (sogra) e o father-in-law (sogro). Aparece
também o brother-in-law (cunhado) e, o óbvio, a sister-in-law (cunhada). A coisa em inglês é
tão estranha que após o casamento todo mundo vira in-law. Ou seja, o tio da sua esposa (ou
esposo), por exemplo, se torna uncle-in-law. Não tem segredo!
Para encerrar esse assunto, anote aí uma expressão interessante “IT RUNS IN THE
FAMILY”, isso é o mesmo que dizer (é de família). Podemos dizer “HONESTY RUNS IN THE
FAMILY” (honestidade é de família), “BEAUTY RUNS IN THE FAMILY” (a beleza é de família).

Frequency Adverbs
Frequency adverbs são aqueles que nos indicam com que frequência algo aconteceu,
acontece, acontecerá etc. Para dizermos qual a frequência com que praticamos uma ação -
como, por exemplo, tomar café da manhã, ir ao cinema, trabalhar - usamos frequency
adverbs, ou seja, advérbios de frequência.
Alguns exemplos de advérbios de frequência que usamos em inglês são:
Always Usually Frequently Often Sometimes Occasionally Rarely Never
Os frequency adverbs vêm logo depois do verbo TO BE.
PESSOA + TO BE + ADVÉRBIO DE FREQÜÊNCIA + COMPLEMENTO

Ian is usually in bed by 10 p.m.
Quando o verbo da frase não é o TO BE, mas um verbo principal qualquer, do tipo eat, cook,
work ou study, o frequency adverbs vem antes do verbo.
PESSOA + ADVÉRBIO DE FREQUÊNCIA + VERBO + COMPLEMENTO

They usually watch TV in the evening.

Prepositions / IN – ON – AT
What are Prepositions?
Preposição é uma palavra ou grupo de palavras que liga(m) dois ou mais termos da
oração e que estabelece(m) entre si algumas relações.
60
“usamos ‘in’ para dizer que o objeto ou pessoa está dentro de algum lugar; usamos ‘on’, para
dizer que está sobre algum lugar; e, usamos ‘at’ para fazer referência a algo que está nem
dentro e nem sobre, mas que está por perto”.
Example:
Eu tive um sonho COM você.
Não gosto DE você.
Assim que eu acabe aqui, eu vou PARA casa.
Emma decidiu ficar EM casa.
Eu disse que estava COM fome
Ele foi acusado DE roubo
IN–ON–AT – OF – FROM – UP – TO – FOR – WITH – BETWEEN – BEHIND – BY – OUT
“TO NEM SEMPRE É PREPOSIÇÃO”

Em alguns casos o TO serve como marcador do infinitivo. Nesses casos usa-se TO entre dois
verbos.
A – Some people plan where they WANT TO GO before they leave
B – Where they are GOING TO TRAVEL to
Example:
I want TO talk you
We tried TO explain
He promised TO be here on time
She pretended TO be reading the newspaper
PREPOSIÇÕES DE TEMPO ( IN, ON e AT)
Muitos estudantes de inglês acreditam que o uso das preposições ''in'', ''on'' e ''at'' com
expressões de tempo tratam-se de regras gramaticais. Na verdade, isto nada tem a ver com
regras. Tudo não passa de simples observações!
Note nas sentenças abaixo:

a. I have to be there at six o' clock
61
b. I will see you on Monday

c. I work best in the morning
d. They're going to travel in December
e. Ask me again in three days
f. We'll meet him at 4:30.
g. What are you doing on Sunday
h. He wasn't here in January
IN – use essa preposição: Para se referir aos messe, anos, estações do ano...
Ex: in January, in February;
in 1995, in 1998;
in (the) summer, in (the) fall,
ON – use essa preposição: Para se referir aos dias da semana, datas, dias específicos, my
birthday...
Ex: on Monday, on Tuesday;
on March 22, on February 01;
absolutely nothing happened on my birthday;
on New Years’s Day
AT – use essa preposição: Para se referir-se há horas, datas específicas...

Ex: at 2 o’clock (às duas horas)
at Christmas [no natal]
Com as seguintes palavras: at midday (ao meio-dia), at noon (ao meio-dia), at lunchtime (na
hora do almoço), at night (à noite), at midnight (à meia-noite).

BÁSICO 3

Simple Past
 VERB TO BE:
O verbo to be é um verbo irregular. De forma bem simples, isso significa que no passado
(Simple Past) ele tem uma forma própria. Ou melhor, ele tem duas formas: was e were. Cada
uma dessas formas tem o pronome/sujeito certo para ser usado.
Affirmative: usamos a forma was para I, he, she, it e were para we, you, they ou quando
mencionamos o nome de duas pessoas ou mais.
Ex: We were in a hurry last night and didn't stop to talk to him. (Estávamos com pressa ontem
à noite e não paramos para falar com ele.)
It was too cold yesterday. (Estava muito frio ontem.)
Negative: usamos as formas negativa wasn’t (was not) para I, he, she, it e weren’t (were not)
para we, you, they ou quando mencionamos o nome de duas pessoas ou mais.
Ex: They were not good students. (Eles não eram bons alunos.)
Mary wasn't the main actress. (Mary não era a atriz principal.)
Note que no negative podemos usar a forma abreviada weren’t e wasn’t
Interrogative: coloca-se o Verb TO BE antes do sujeito.

Ex: Were you occupied when I called to you? (Você estava ocupado quando lhe liguei?)
Were you at home last night? (Você estava em casa ontem à noite?)
SIMPLE PAST.
O Simple Past descreve uma ação que já ocorreu e que não ocorre mais. A ação teve início e fim no
passado. No Simple Past o verbo não é flexionado em nenhuma pessoa, repetindo-se em todas elas.
 Regular Verbs:
Os verbos terminados em e recebem apenas a letra -d ao infinitivo do verbo.
71
Ex: hope – hoped / change – changed / like – liked / behave – behaved / lie – lied / live – lived
/ love – loved / arrive – arrived / invite – invited / snore – snored.
 Se o verbo tiver uma única sílaba ou terminar em sílaba tônica formada por
consoante/vogal/consoante, dobra-se a última consoante e acrescenta-se:
Ex: stop – stopped / permit – permitted / occur – occurred / rob – robbed / admit – admitted
/ prefer – preferred / omit – omitted / control – controlled / drop – dropped / plan – planned
/ shop – shopped.
 Os verbos terminados em y precedido de consoante trocam o y por –ied.
Ex: study – studied / carry – carried / worry – worried / try – tried / hurry – hurried / cry –
cried.
 Os verbos terminados em consoante/vogal/consoante cuja sílaba tônica não é a

última não dobram a consoante, apenas recebem -ed:
Ex: listen – listened / develop – developed / open – opened / fasten – fastened / suffer –
suffered / visit – visited / wonder – wondered / offer – offered.
Affirmative:
Ex: She broke her leg. (Ela quebrou sua perna).
He studied a lot yesterday. (Ele estudou bastante ontem).
Negative
EX: We didn’t send e-mails to our parents. (Nós não mandamos e-mails para os nossos pais).
I didn’t see Jack at the party yesterday. (Eu não vi o Jack na festa ontem).
Interrogative:
Ex: Did Phillip buy his mother a gift? (O Philip comprou um presente para a sua mãe?).
Did Amanda sing at the festival? (A Amanda cantou no festival?).

Simple Past – Past continuous
O Past continuous, basicamente, descreve uma ação que estava ocorrendo em um certo
período no passado. O Past Continuous é formado pelo passado simples do verbo to be
(was/were) + o gerúndio (-ing) do verbo principal.
Ex: I was washing the dishes when the phone rang. Eu estava lavando a louça quando o telefone
tocou.
Observe que a pessoa relata que estava fazendo algo – lavando a louça – quando
outra ação ocorreu – o telefone tocou.
O Past Continuous é usado para descrever uma ação em andamento num determinado
momento no passado:
Ex:
 Fred was dancing with his girlfriend. (Fred estava dançando com sua namorada.)
81
 I was talking to my boss when you called me yesterday afternoon. (Eu estava falando
com meu chefe quando você me ligou ontem à tarde.)
 At 7:00 a.m., I was flying over San Francisco. (Às 7:00 eu estava voando sobre São
Francisco.)
Narrar às circunstâncias de uma situação passada:
 It was almost midnight and I was getting tired, but I couldn't go to bed because I had
lots of things to study. (Era quase meia-noite e eu estava ficando cansado, mas não
podia dormir porque tinha muitas coisas para estudar.)
 It was Sunday morning, the sun was shining in the sky. (Era domingo de manhã, o sol
estava brilhando no céu.)
Descrever ações em andamento simultâneo. Nesses casos, geralmente usa-se a conjunção

while:
 Susan was playing while Mary was studying for her test. (Susan estava brincando
enquanto Mary estava estudando para sua prova.)
 We were preparing our breakfast while he was still sleeping. (Estávamos preparando
nosso café da manhã enquanto ele ainda estava dormindo.)
Falar, indicar uma ação habitual que ocorria no passado. Normalmente usa-se os advérbios de
frequência: constantly, often, always entre o passado simples do verbo to be e o verbo
principal:
 She was constantly talking to her classmates. Her teacher didn't like that. (Ela estava
constantemente falando com seus colegas. Sua professora não gostava disso.)
 They were always asking the same questions. (Eles estavam sempre fazendo as
mesmas perguntas.)
Exercises:

TO or FOR
Na nossa língua, elas se traduzem, em geral como uma só preposição: para.
Use "TO" quando há algum tipo de transferência acontecendo ou algo está sendo movidos de
um lugar para outro. TO expressa direção.
Ex:
 "We went from the restaurant to the party."
 "Talk to your teacher and get more information about the exam."
 "I go to the office every morning at 9am."
 "He sold his car to me for $5,000."
1. Use "FOR" quando algo está sendo feito para beneficiar alguma coisa ou alguém.
2. Use "FOR" quando você está tentando expressar propósito ou a razão de que algo está
acontecendo.
Ex:
 "I bought this gift for you."

 "He runs for his health."
 "Bring this tea upstairs for your grandmother."
 "Buckle up for safety."
Antes de verbos, por exemplo, usamos o TO seguido do verbo no infinitivo para falar do
propósito ou objetivo de uma ação. Já o FOR é usado acompanhado do gerúndio para falar da
função de algo.
Ex:
 She called to talk to you. (Ela ligou para falar com você – “falar com você” era o
propósito da ligação.)
 Conversations are good for realizing what’s wrong. (Conversas são boas para
perceber o que há de errado. – perceber o que há de errado é a função da conversa.)
84
Podemos dizer que TO é usado para falar de uma troca ou transferência, algo que é passado
para alguém, e FOR indica que a ação foi para beneficiar o indivíduo ou para indicar que algo
foi feito por outra pessoa, no lugar dela.
Ex:
 I will write a letter to her. (Vou escrever uma carta para ela – a carta será passada de
mim para ela.)
 He always carries the books for her. (Ele sempre carrega os livros por ela – no lugar
dela, para ajudá-la, ele carrega os livros dela.)
TO FOR
Para indicar destino, movimento em direção Para indicar função (seguido de gerúndio):
a algo: A watering can is used for watering the flowers.
You are going to Paris.
Para falar de distância: Para falar de benefícios:
It’s about 2 blocks from the office to her Fruit is very good for you.
