countable
and uncountable nouns.
Ou seja, substantivos contáveis e substantivos
incontáveis, coisas que contamos em números e coisas que não contamos.
Isso é
estranho porque em português não temos esse tópico em nossa gramática. Na
verdade, o que temos é “singular” e “plural”. Agora, substantivos contáveis e incontáveis
são temas não presentes em nossas gramáticas. Creio que seja por conta disso
que as pessoas sofrem para aprender esse assunto em inglês.
A dica
para entender esse negócio, no entanto, é a seguinte:countable nouns(substantivos contáveis)
são aqueles que têm singular e plural. Por exemplo, “cat” (gato), “cats”
(gatos), “table” (mesa), “tables” (mesas), “book” (livro), “books” (livros),
“newspaper” (jornal), “newspapers” (jornais), “pen” (caneta), “pens” (canetas),
etc.Ou seja, não é nada tão complicado assim entender os taiscountable nouns.
Afinal, quase tudo no mundo tem singular e plural. Agora, o que dizer dos “uncountable nouns”? O que é isso? Como entender isso?
Vejamos!
“Uncountable nouns” (substantivos incontáveis)
é o nome que damos paras as coisas que não contamos; ou seja, elas só existem
no singular. Alguns exemplos são: “water” (água), “coffee” (café), “milk”
(leite), “sugar” (açúcar), “cheese” (queijo), “rice” (arroz), “butter”
(manteiga), “oxygen” (oxigênio), “wine” (vinho), “beer” (cerveja), “luck”
(sorte), “salt” (sal), “money” (dinheiro) e outros mais.Esses substantivos são
considerados incontáveis, pois não costumamos dizê-los ou escrevê-los no
plural. Ou seja, não é comum dizermos “two waters” (duas águas), “three waters”
(três águas), “four waters” (quatro águas), “five waters” (cinco águas), etc. O
problema aqui, no entanto, é que muitos estudantes de inglês no Brasil dizem
assim: “Mas a gente conta essas coisas. Tipo, a gente fala “uma água”, “duas
águas”, “três águas”, etc.”.Isso é verdade! Nós falamos assim! Mas, as pessoas
esquecem que não contamos o líquido. O que contamos é a garrafa de água que
compramos no mercado, por exemplo. Dessa forma, quando alguém diz “traz duas
águas pra mim”, o que ela quer dizer é “traz duas garrafas de água pra mim”. No
dia a dia, nós cortamos a sentença, pois já está claro no contexto o que
queremos dizer. Se você entender isso, certamente compreenderá a ideia de
countable and uncountable nouns.O interessante, porém, em inglês é que há
coisas que para eles são incontáveis e para nós são contáveis. Um exemplo é a
palavra “pão”. Para nós há o plural “pães” e, portanto, contamos: um pão, dois
pães, três pães, etc. Já em inglês, “bread” é incontável, ou seja, nunca diga
“one bread”, “two bread”, “three bread”… O melhor é dizer “a roll of bread” (um
pão), “two rolls of bread” (dois pães), “three rolls of bread” (três pães) e
assim por diante.Há outras palavras assim em inglês. As usadas com mais
frequência são: “information” (informação), “slang” (gíria), “baggage”
(bagagem), “luggage” (bagagem) “furniture” (mobília, móveis), “advice”
(conselho), “fruit” (fruta) e outras que você deverá aprender como palavras
novas e não como regras gramaticais. Ou seja, não adianta pegar uma lista de
countable and uncountable nouns e decorá-la. O melhor a fazer é aprender o uso
das palavras de modo natural e com o tempo.
1-Se o substantivo é incontável ele
não pode ser colocado no plural
Um outro exemplo: money (bem como dinheiro no português) não tem
plural. Não dizemos “one money”, “two moneys”, “three moneys”. Podemos, sim,
dizer se alguém tem pouco dinheiro (a little money) ou muito dinheiro (much
money, a lot of money). Ou seja, podemos usar palavras que quantifiquem o
substantivo:
§A bottle of wine – uma garrafa
de vinho
§A grain of rice – um grão de
arroz
§A piece of news – uma notícia
2. Se o substantivo é incontável
ele não pode ser quantificado com a palavra “one”
Em português é muito comum pedirmos uma informação, uma “ajudinha”, um
conselho. Em inglês todas essas palavras são incontáveis: information, helpe advice. Sendo assim, o mais comum é dizer: a piece of information,some help (a
piece of help eu nunca ouvi ninguém falar) e a piece of advice,
quando estamos nos referindo a um só.
3.O que precisa ser fatiado para
ser comido:
§Ham (presunto), cheese (queijo), bread (pão).
Substantivos abstratos:
§Music (música), art (arte), love (amor), happiness (alegria).
Tudo que é líquido:
§Water (água), milk (leite).
Copy in the
sequence after write c for countable and u for uncountable:

Roberto Carlos: still on
top, at 72 Retirement? Career in decline? Nothing of the sort. Roberto
Carlos continues to write new hits, to play shows, and to wow audiences, both
in Brazil and abroad. Long live the King!Born in Cachoeiro de Itapemirim-ES, Roberto Carlos sang for the first
time on a radio station when he was only nine years old. His payment for his
first performance was a handful of candy. Time went by and Roberto became known
as a king in Brazil, and his fame spread to many other countries. In his
53-year career he has recorded more than 50 albums and sold over 100 million
copies. Dozens of his songs have been number one in the charts in Brazil.
Roberto is 72 years old and has achieved everything an artist could have
dreamed of. However, he is not thinking about retiring. He still plays shows in
Brazil and abroad, and is in great physical shape,
working out regularly. In November, he released an EP - a sort of
mini-album - with four songs. Two of these songs are brand new: the ballad “Esse
Cara Sou Eu” and the funk song “Furdúncio.” Both are part
of the soundtrack to the soap opera Salve Jorge. Eating
ice cream and watching soap operas are two of the life's greatest pleasures for
Roberto Carlos.
Romanticism, religion, and a new phase
Roberto learned to play the
guitar and piano when he was a child. He moved to Niterói as a teenager and at
that time he met another teen who would become his best friend and musical partner: Erasmo
Carlos. The King’s first hit came in 1962, with Splish Splash. The
following year he wrote two of his biggest hits: É proibido fumar and O
Calhambeque. Roberto produced a light and irreverent kind of
rock. In 1965 Rede Record invited Roberto, Erasmo and singer
Wanderléa to present the show Jovem Guarda, which was on TV for
three years. In 1966 Roberto and Erasmo fell out over professional issues, but
the following year they made up. Roberto also starred in successful films
between the end of the 1960s and the beginning of the 1970s.
In the beginning of the
1970s Roberto began a new phase, with less rock and more romanticism. Brazil also
got to learn about his religious side. Songs such as Jesus Cristo and A
Montanha were big hits. His superstitious side also appeared, and he
would not wear brown clothes, for example. Roberto began to sell albums in the USA, Europe and Latin
America, and stars such as Julio Iglesias and Ray Conniff recorded his songs.
In December 1974 Globo broadcast the first Roberto Carlos special, which has
remained a tradition at the end of the year for the channel. Roberto has been
married three times. His greatest love, Maria Rita, died in 1999, after a
battle with cancer.

Olá garota veja aí como surgiu o dias mães .Mãe é um bem raro e precioso que devemos valorizar pela a vida inteira .Abraço .Euripedes Did Mother's Day begin in the United States? No. Long,
long, ago, in ancient Greece, the people paid tribute to Rhea, the Mother of
the Gods, each spring. A little later in history it is noted that England paid
homage to mothers on "Mothering Sunday," the fourth Sunday of Lent.
In 1872, Julia Ward Howe suggested the idea of Mother's Day, but it was Miss
Anna M. Jarvis (1864-1948), of Philadelphia, who began a letter-writing
campaign to a variety of influential people that made Mother's Day a national
holiday. Why did Miss Jarvis think it was so important to have Mother's
Day? Miss Jarvis was very close to her mother Mrs. Anna Reese Jarvis.
Anna's mother died in May of 1905, when Anna was 41 years of age. Anna was not
married and from the time of her mother's death cared for her blind sister,
Ellsinore. Anna missed her mother very much and felt that children should
appreciate their mother's more while they're still alive. Anna hoped Mother's
Day would increase respect and love and strengthen family bonds. So
when was the first Mother's Day? In 1907 Anna persuaded her mother's
church in Grafton, West Virginia to celebrate Mother's Day on the second
anniversary of her mother's death, the 2nd Sunday of May. By the next year,
1908, Mother's Day was also celebrated in Philadelphia. In 1910 the first
Mother's Day proclamation was issued by the governor of West Virginia. Oklahoma
celebrated Mother's Day that year also. By 1911 every state observed Mother's
Day. The Mother's Day International Association was incorporated on December
12, 1912, with the purpose of furthering meaningful observations of Mother's
Day. When did Mother's Day become official? In May, 1913, The
House of Representatives unanimously adopted a resolution requesting the
President, his Cabinet, members of Congress, and all officials of the federal
government to wear a white carnation on Mother's Day. Congress passed another
Joint Resolution May 8, 1914, designating the second Sunday in May as Mother's
Day. On Mother's Day the U.S. flag is to be displayed on government buildings
and at people's homes "as a public expression of our love and reverence
for the mothers of our country." President Woodrow Wilson issued the first
proclamation making Mother's Day an official national holiday. Many
people give roses on Valentines Day, is there a particular flower I should give
my mom on Mother's Day? Miss Anna Jarvis's mother's favorite flower
was the white carnation. This flower was chosen to represent the sweetness,
purity and endurance of mother love. However, the red carnation has since
become the symbol of a living mother while white signifies that one's mother
has died. Do other countries celebrate Mother's Day? You bet
they do! Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia and Belgium celebrate
Mother's Day on the same day as the United States. Other countries celebrate
Mother's Day as well, though not on the same day. What can I do to make
Mother's Day special for my mom? There are all kinds of things you can
do to make Mother's Day special for your mom. Here are a few suggestions: Make mom
breakfast in bed.Do secret acts of kindness, this might include doing one
of mom's chores for her.Be obedient.Do your chores, without being asked.Get
along with your brothers and sisters.Leave a love letter, for mom, on her
pillow.Spice up the Mother's Day festivities with an activity or two.
Interview your mother and/or grandmother. Ask questions about her birth,
childhood, and what she did when she was a teenager. Find out favorite subjects
in school, how she met your father or grandfather. Inquire about her favorite
job. What were circumstances and events like when you were born? End the
interview by expressing your love for her. Get together with a few other
families and play the Mother/Child Game. Divide into four mother/child teams.
Ask the mothers to leave the room while the children sit in chairs. Ask the same four or five questions to each child
about their mothers. Bring in the mothers and ask them the same questions. Will
the mother and child have the same answers? Switch places and see how well the
mother's know the children. Award a red carnation to the winning mother/child
team.
