hello there everyone my name is Ronnie and you're watching England where you're

Olá à todos! Meu nome é Ronnie

e você está assistindo o england ou assistindo o YouTube.

watching YouTube. Hi, Everyone!

um today's lesson is a very basic but very important lesson in english grammar

A aula de hoje é muito básica, porém muito importante na gramática da língua inglesa

and in conversation

e na conversação.

this lesson is for Alvaro, it's for you requested.

Esta aula e a uma solicitação de Álvaro.

this is important because we're using the verb to be in the past: was and were

Isso é importante pois estamos usando o verbo "to be" no passado,

que são "was" e "were" -

we use this verb a lot. so it's very important to know when to use was and

usamos muito estes verbos.

É muito importante saber quando utilizar o "was" e quando usar o "were".

when to use were. I'll teach you. The very first one is: We use was for He, She, I, and It.

Irei te ensinar. Usamos "was" para "I", "he", "she" e "it".

so we're going to say I was always passed shopping

Então precisamos dizer: "I was shopping." ("Eu estava fazendo compras.") - sempre no passado,

he was eating pizza

ou "He was eating pizza." ("Ele estava comendo pizza."),

she was laughing hahaha. um it was beautiful

ou "She was laughing." ("Ela estava rindo.").

Isso foi lindo.

ok so with all of these pronouns

Com todos esses pronomes listados utilizamos "was".

we use: was. The Negative

Em frases negativas, acrescentamos "not" ao "was" (was not).

all we're doing is adding not so we're going to say I was not but we don't say

Então dizemos: "I was not", mas realmente é comum dizermos "I wasn't".

that we say I wasn't

ok I wasn't happy he wasn't sad so in the negative

"I wasn't happy, he wasn't sad." ("Eu não estava feliz, ele não estava triste.")

Então em frases negativas você precisará fixar o "n't" após o "was",

all you do is you stick on is n't at the end and it turns to wasn't

e então torna-se "wasn't".

if you want to ask a question you're going to change the order you're going

Se você for fazer uma pergunta, é necessário trocar a ordem se estiver utilizando o verbo "was" + o sujeito.

to use the verb was plus the subject

so you're going to say was he happy with the question you're going to raise your

Então você irá dizer: "Was he happy?" ("Ele estava feliz?").

Com perguntas, você deverá aumentar sua entonação ao fim da frase: "Was he haPPY?",

information at the end was he happy

was she sad and it it can be used for singular things that are not people

"Was she sad?" ("Ela estava triste?")

Agora discutiremos a preposição "it".

"It" pode ser usada em referência a coisas singulares que não envolvam pessoas;

so animals or if you talk about the weather or chairs

como animais, um diálogo sobre o clima, cadeiras, restaurantes, comida...

restaurants food you can say was it delicious

Você pode dizer: "Was it delicious." ("Estava delicioso."), se estiver conversando sobre comida,

if you're talking about food or if you talk about the weather you can say

ou se estiver conversando sobre o clima, você pode dizer: "Was it raining?" ("Estava chovendo?").

was it raining? it's raining now, I love rain though so it's fine

"Está chovendo agora. Eu a amo, esta simplismente otimo."

um the next section that we have to look at is the verb were if it is we

A próxima seção que devemos observar é o verbo "were",

que no caso são "we", "they", "you" e, novamente, "they",

they you and again they are going to use were

que são utilizados para "were".

so we were means myself and at least one other person

Então "we were" (nós fomos) significa eu mesma e pelo menos uma outra pessoa.

so that's the definition of were. so we were happy they is plural of which

Essa é a definição de "we".

"We were happy." ("Nós éramos felizes.")

Agora dissertaremos o uso do "they".

"They" é plural, no qual compreende-se mais de um indivíduo,

means more than one person but not yourself so if I'm talking about other

mas não você mesmo.

Então se eu estiver me referindo a outras pessoas, eu posso dizer "they were":

people

I can say they were they were singing

"They were singing." ("Eles estavam cantando.")

oh you I saw you you were watching the video

Agora sobre o "you":

"I saw you, you were watching the video." ("Eu vi vocês, vocês estavam assistindo o vídeo.")

very good thank you and they

Muito bom, obrigada.

E, novamente, "they"...

hey honey you written they twice

– Mas ei, querida, você escreveu "they" duas vezes!

why did you make a mistake

– Por quê?

– Você cometeu um erro!

now I didn't make a mistake they has two meanings

– Não, eu não cometi um erro.

... "They" possui dois significados. O primeiro que te disse é o plural de um diálogo entre as pessoas.

the very first one I told you is the plural of talk about people so i can say

Então eu posso dizer: "Those people over there." ("Aquelas pessoas lá.") - "They were singing" ("Elas estavam cantando.").

those people over there

they were seeing the other definition of the way we use they is like it

Uma outra definição na maneira como podemos usar "they" é como o "it".

they we use for plural

"They" utilizamos para substantivos de plural.

now so singular nouns we use it

Então para substantivos singulares usamos o "it".

plural nouns we used a for example if you're talking about a group of dogs

Em substantivos de plural, por exemplo, se você está discutindo sobre um grupo de cachorros

he's a were her growling okay so they has two meanings plural nouns and people

Usamos "They were growling." ("Eles estavam rosnando.").

Então "they" tem dois significados: substantivos de plural e pessoas. Pessoas são substantivos também.

people are nouns

who so they were if their dogs they can grow her

Se os cachorros deles conseguem rosnar.

there's a new word growl on the negative form is words kind of a hard word to say

Tem uma nova palavra: "growl" (rosnar).

Na forma negativa é "weren't" - tipo de uma palavra difícil de se dizer.

words again when you're going to make the negative all you're going to do is

Novamente, quando você for usar a forma negativa, você precisará colocar ''n't'' no final

put it at the end

it's unusual or very formal

É incomum ou muito formal dizermos "They were not happy." ("Eles não estavam felizes.")

if we say they were not happy

the only way we would use was not or were not is if you're trying to be very

O único jeito que poderíamos usar "was not" ou "were not" é se você estiver tentando aparentar muito óbvio sobre a questão.

obvious about the point

so they weren't happy

"They weren't happy.", "We weren't..." e "They weren't..."

we weren't

and they work if you want to make it very very strong

Se você quiser ser obivio, use o "were not".

you're going to use were not we were not happy with our service

"We were NOT happy with our service!" (Não estávamos contentes com nosso serviço!)

ok the question form is basically the same as was that we have to be careful

O formato de pergunta é basicamente o mesmo do que o "was".

Nós temos que ter cuidado com o sujeito.

bill to subject and again at the end of a question in English it's a rising

E, novamente, no final da perguntaa em inglês, aumente a intonacao :

intonation where we have he were they singing

"Were we happy?" (Nós estávamos feliz?)

"Were they singing?" (Eles estavam cantando?)

were you singing

"Were you singing?" (Você estava cantando?)

ok so was and were always in the past is the past tense was for these subjects

Então "was" e "were" sempre no passado, no pretérito,

"was" para esses sujeitos e "were" para esses sujeitos.

and work for these subjects negative and question form

Negativos e formatos de perguntas.

I hope you get it I hope you understand it i hope you can use it

Espero que vocês entenderam, espero que vocês entendam,

eu espero que possa usá-los. Se cuide e nos vemos em breve!

take care we'll see you soon
