Hi Ana!
Long time no see…
You’ve said:
“My car is at the shop = meu carro está no conserto (ou na manutenção)” yet can I say: “My car is the the breakdown service”.
Tks,
Vera
I found this really cool site. Herre’s a tip for u. I know a few words short form which are: (used to talk to msn) “u” means “you”, “r” mean “are” “y” means “why” and so on. (these tips are for those who wants to use them or to understand who writes this way, or both hehe)
My last boyfriend asked me if I could dating back with him, then I replied; Sorry, I would if I could because now, I’m married! kkkkkkkkk I’m just kidding! It example isn’t true! Sorry for some wrong words, because I’ve been learning english recently. Kisses. I love your pocasts!
” I would if I could, but I can’t so I shan’t” (Sheldon in The Big Bang Theory Show)
I would if I could go home right now and jogging a little this night but I have to study :)
Olá Ana Luiza,
Os podcast são direcionados para qual nível: básico, intermediário ou avançado?
Aproveito para falar que adoro o site e o visito quase todos os dias! Sigo as dicas no face , twitter…!
Me motivei mesmo para recomeçar meus estudos! Em breve me comunicarei apenas em inglês! Empolgada!
Há algum email para que seja direcionados perguntas fora do contexto do podcasts?
Oi Maria – a gente não responde dúvida individual por email, mas vc pode enviar sugestão de post. Veja aqui: https://www.inglesonline.com.br/contato/
Oi Maria – eu diria que eles são intermediários. E, obrigada :)
Great tip! Here’s my example…
My boss asked to me to travel to United States next week for attend a meeting, I would if I could, next week I’ll be on vacation.
Marcia, that made me laugh! Did it actually happen?
My boss asked me to represent the company where I work in a business dinner but I had to say “I would If I could”.
[correct] Weeks ago, my sister was so excited ’cause she was invited to a fancy party. But she didn’t realize she was a little fat after Christmas’ dinner where we ate a lot indeed. So, she only tried on her dress only the day before the party… So she couldn’t wear it (as I said) and among tears stearing down her face she asked me my fancy dress that I bought to my birthday party some days after =S
So that ask makes me freak out and I could say only some words: ” I would but I’m two numbers smaller than you. Sorry!” =( Was I selfish?

oi Juliana – legal a sua estória. Mas só pra esclarecer: I would if *I could*.
Se eu pudesse. O pudesse tem a ver com vc, com sua habilidade de fazer algo, ou com a falta dela.
No seu caso, o problema é que o vestido não servia, então não é bem o caso de alguma falta de habilidade sua.
Hi Ana Luiza, you always have groundbreaking aways to teach. You’re awesome!
Let’s go to my example:
My friend asked if I could borrow my volley ball. I did say : I would if I could but unfortunately my volley ball broke. I haven’t anymore.
My father in law someday ago has asked me to help him to rebuild a wall of the gate of the house
but I said I would if I could because I needed work that day.
Great example, Gustavo… Excellent!
This podcast is amazing.
