English Learning

Today is the first post of the blog, I hope you enjoy it.

I've been thinking about why brazilians speak english so slowly and don't speak as well as native speakers, of course native speakers have been speaking english since they were children but there's another thing, brazilians usually say: "I'd like to study there, School X is the best", how do you say that about a school if you don't know it ?

Actually I don't have any problems with english schools :)

Most students study one or two hours a week in a english school, and when they get home they don't study anything, sometimes we need to re-think our concepts, Who has been making mistakes ?

Students or English schools ?

I don't know the exactly answer but I think if you really want to learn something you need to study english the correct way, most schools ignore it, you need to learn REAL ENGLISH.

I'll stop it today but before I'll show you some expressions used by native speakers.

Please take a look:

gimme - Give me
Example: gimme the butter please (Me dê a manteiga por favor)

that's dope - excellent, great (slang)
Example: That's dope! I'll get some e-mails today

gotcha - I got you
Example: gotcha, don't try to lie, I found out everything (te peguei, não tente mentir eu descobri tudo)

Whaddup - what's up (informal way to greet)
Example: hey whatddup alex ? (E ae Alex ? Que que tá rolando ?)

lemme - let me
example: lemme try to help you, I got some medicines here (Me deixe ajudá-lo, tenho alguns remédios aqui)

buddies - guys, friends
example: hey, our buddies are you over there, they just got home (Nossos camaradas estão logo ali, eles acabaram de chegar em casa)

This is enough for today.
