É preciso saber se comunicar em inglês! Em uma Multinacional, por exemplo, pode acontecer de uma ligação estrangeira cair no seu ramal. Seus colegas que falam inglês estão em reunião. E agora? O que fazer? O que falar? É bom começar a pensar nesse assunto.&lt;br /&gt;Mas não vamos falar disso agora, que tal adquirir um pouco de conhecimento sobre etiqueta de e-mail?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Etiqueta de e-mail.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   É interessante &lt;strong&gt;criar e-mails curtos&lt;/strong&gt;, pois e-mails longos certamente não serão lidos, consequentemente não serão respondidos. Além disso, é importante ser &lt;strong&gt;claro e objetivo&lt;/strong&gt;, procurando focar apenas &lt;strong&gt;um assunto em cada e-mail&lt;/strong&gt;. Também devemos levar em conta o &lt;strong&gt;nível de formalidade&lt;/strong&gt;. Em caso de uma relação mais comercial, no caso de um “business e-mail”, devemos proceder como se o e-mail estivesse em um papel timbrado.&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;   Atenção quanto à &lt;strong&gt;formatação do texto&lt;/strong&gt;. Erros podem ser interpretados como pouco caso, falta de atenção ou pouca experiência com a tecnologia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A estrutura de um e-mail resume-se basicamente em:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Saudação.&lt;br /&gt;- Desenvolvimento / Razão do e-mail.&lt;br /&gt;- Finalização&lt;br /&gt;- Agradecimentos.&lt;br /&gt;- Assinatura.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Procedimento bem parecido com o de uma redação: Introdução, Desenvolvimento e Conclusão).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alguns exemplos básicos:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Saudação:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Hello Mr. Charlles; Dr. Peter.&lt;br /&gt;Dear Ms. Smith&lt;br /&gt;Hi Jane&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Para muitas pessoas ao mesmo tempo:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Dear all&lt;br /&gt;Dear colleagues&lt;br /&gt;Dear business partner&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Desenvolvimento:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#999999;"&gt;No desenvolvimento vou usar um exemplo no final do post.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finalização:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;If you have any question, feel free to contact me.&lt;br /&gt;For additional information please contact ….&lt;br /&gt;For additional assistance, please contact …&lt;br /&gt;For urgent matters, please contact …&lt;br /&gt;Any doubts please do not hesitate to contact us. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Agradecimentos:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Regards&lt;br /&gt;Best regards&lt;br /&gt;With kind regards&lt;br /&gt;Many Thanks and Best Regards&lt;br /&gt;Thanks&lt;br /&gt;Thanks and regards.&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for your attention.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Assinatura:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Nome completo: Gabriel Gb8&lt;br /&gt;Profissão: Support Coordinator&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Empresa: DicasGb8.blogspot&lt;br /&gt;Endereço completo: Av. das Américas, 1234&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cidade – País – CEP: xxxx-xxx&lt;br /&gt;Telefone: (55 xx) 1234-5678&lt;br /&gt;Celular: (55 xx) 8765-4321&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="mailto:endereçodeemail@email.com"&gt;&lt;em&gt;endereçodeemail@email.com&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sitedaempresa.com/"&gt;&lt;em&gt;http://www.sitedaempresa.com/&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;==========================================&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Para finalizar, vejamos o exemplo abaixo:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Dear all colleagues,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We would like to inform you all that due to strong rains last days, 85% of Itajai territory is underwater (Inundation), local government has determinated state of public calamity, for this reason our attendance may be jeopardize.

MBA?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;É um curso que não vai deixar você sair de uma entrevista com um sorriso amareloPor Max Gehringer&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ao concluir um curso universitário nos Estados Unidos, a pessoa recebe um degree. Se o curso for numa área ligada à administração de negócios, esse degree é chamado de Business Administration, ou, abreviando, BA. No Brasil é a mesma coisa: o formando recebe um grau, e a cerimônia de conclusão do curso é chamada de "colação de grau", sendo que essa "colação" nada tem a ver com o fato de alguém ter colado para passar de ano. Ela vem do latim collatione, "comparação". Significa que o colado adquire o direito legal de ser equiparado a qualquer profissional da área. Mas aí o americano pode decidir que não quer apenas se comparar aos demais, mas se sobressair, e para conseguir isso ele terá de fazer um novo curso. Curso que, no Brasil, até pouco tempo, nós chamávamos de pós-graduação. Lá, esse curso suplementar permite colocar uma outra letrinha antes do BA: o M, de Master. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Portanto, o BA dá direito a um degree, e o MBA a um pedigree. Como todo mundo já percebeu, a sigla MBA colou no mercado de trabalho brasileiro, e o resultado prático disso é que nossos cursos de pós-graduação mudaram de nome. Mas muita gente recém-formada se pergunta se, depois de quatro longos anos de "facu", é mesmo necessário encarar mais dois de MBA. A resposta é "sim", e com ênfase absoluta. Mas, para entender exatamente por que, é preciso fazer uma profunda pesquisa de campo. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A pessoa interessada deve se dirigir a um supermercado, procurar a seção de perfumaria, e parar diante da prateleira onde estão os creme dentais, vulgo pasta de dente. E, quando isso acontece, a área de marketing tem de entrar em ação para criar um "fator diferencial da marca". Foi o que fez a turma da empresa líder do setor, a Colgate: lançou o Colgate com gardol. Um sucesso instantâneo. Isso forçou a vice-líder Kolynos a reagir, o que ela conseguiu ao colocar no mercado o Kolynos com clorofila. E a competição esquentou de vez quando, logo em seguida, apareceu uma terceira marca, Signal, que tinha hexaclorofeno! Embora nenhum consumidor soubesse exatamente qual era o real impacto daqueles três ingredientes no seu teclado bucal, a verdade é que em pouco tempo ninguém mais queria consumir uma pasta de dente que não oferecesse um "algo mais". E isso obrigou as demais marcas a inventar um "componente x" qualquer, o que é a regra do mercado até hoje. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Dê só uma olhada aí na prateleira. O creme dental Phillips, por exemplo, tem LMP, e um asterisco na embalagem explica que isso é hidróxido de magnésio. Você sabe o que o hidróxido de magnésio faz? Nããão? Pois é exatamente o mesmo que um MBA faz por sua carreira: chama a atenção, diferencia, impressiona. De certa forma, um profissional é como um tubo de dentifrício, que se expõe para chamar a atenção do consumidor final de seu talento - a empresa - com o currículo funcionando como um outdoor. E, assim como o mercado de consumo adotou os hexaclôs e lemepês, o mercado de trabalho se encantou com os mebeás. E com o mercado não se discute, adapta-se. Na hora da entrevista para um novo emprego, gardóis e mebeás têm a mesma finalidade: evitar que o pretendente seja rejeitado e aí tenha que dar aquele sorriso amarelo...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/br&gt;Max Gehringer&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mister Max, Revista Você S.A.

Eu mesmo, sempre que não encontro em outros sites específicos de downloads, recorro ao google.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Não estou querendo fugir do foco deste blog (dicas de inglês), pelo contrário, gostaria de falar sobre um ótimo método de aprendizado da lingua inglesa que é através da música. Escutar músicas em inglês é uma boa opção para melhorar as habilidades linguísticas. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Hoje descobri uma ferramenta de busca de arquivos mp3, o Discovery music. Basta digitar o nome da música e ele faz uma pesquisa por &lt;strong&gt;downloads&lt;/strong&gt; (e não por letras, cifras ou sites para comprar a música ou CD). &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Segue o site: &lt;a href="http://www.googlediscovery.com/labs/music/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;http://www.googlediscovery.com/labs/music/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aproveitando o assunto gostaria de deixar aqui outros links que costumo utilizar para procurar músicas, que são o 4shared e beemp3.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;4shared - &lt;a href="http://www.4shared.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;http://www.4shared.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;BeeMp3 -&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.beemp3.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;http://www.beemp3.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="right"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="right"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="right"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Atenção: Façam downloads com moderação e diga NÃO a pirataria!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8193185822746691932-1992137079921186764?l=dicasgb8.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dicasgb8.blogspot.com/feeds/1992137079921186764/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://dicasgb8.blogspot.com/2009/06/download-de-mp3.html#comment-form' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8193185822746691932/posts/default/1992137079921186764'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8193185822746691932/posts/default/1992137079921186764'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dicasgb8.blogspot.com/2009/06/download-de-mp3.html' title='Download de mp3'/><author><name>gb8</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08474059259330880068</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='29' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZA_faf86Cl8/SgFtl4Q1AiI/AAAAAAAAADU/B1kY_yKsT6A/S220/dicasgb8_logo.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193185822746691932.post-4396111397809169314</id><published>2009-06-08T16:12:00.002-03:00</published><updated>2009-06-08T16:25:26.268-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Rank de palavras mais usadas na língua iglesa.</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;A&lt;/span&gt;qui está uma pequena lista de algumas palavras mais usadas na língua inglesa, ordenadas pela sua frequencia de uso.

&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;O que significa a expressão Wishful Thinking? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;E&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;sses dias esbarrei com essa expressão e levei um bom tempo tentando encontrar seu significado. Enfin, não consegui uma tradução precisa e então recorri a alguns amigos nativos que tentaram me explicar com um exemplo bem simples.&lt;br /&gt;Quem me ajudou foi o meu camarada Freddie, da Austrália. Segue sua explicação:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Yes. I can certainly explain what wishful thinking mean. And yes, it is a common phrase in ALL English speaking countries. Here's an example: Lets say, I was walking along with my friend Gabriel in the city and we saw a travel advertisement to Rio de Janeiro - from Sydney return trip only $2000. My friend Gabriel says, "Hey, let's go to Rio. We can party all day, play guitar at the beach, hang out with beautiful people and drink cocktails at sunset!!! Common, let's do it!!!"&lt;br /&gt;But I know that my friend Gabriel does not have any money. In this case I can say, "Yeah sure Gabriel, you're wishful thinking!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;The verb is just "thinking", and the adverb is "wishful". Your thoughts are full of wishes: You wish you were on holiday at Rio, and drinking, and playing the guitar...etc. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;And if I say to you, Gabriel, I'm gonna be fluent in Portuguese in two months. Then you can tell me: "Freddie, you're wishful thinking!!!" Because languages require practice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers,&lt;br /&gt;Freddie”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Muito obrigado pela explicação.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Trocando em miúdos o que o nosso amigo explicou, podemos entender essa expressão como uma espécie de desejo-fantasia, sonho, subjetivismo, ilusão, fora da realidade, excesso de otimismo, etc. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Por exemplo: O rapaz termina com sua linda namorada pra ficar com outra mulher mais velha, experiente, etc. Logo, numa conversa com a pobre menina, ela diz:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;“I thought he would come back to me, but I guess it was just wishful thinking.”&lt;br /&gt;(Eu pensei que ele iria voltar pra mim, mas acho que não passou de uma ilusão, eu sou muito boba mesmo em acreditar que isso seria possível). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;&lt;/br&gt;Bom amigos, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;até breve!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;"&gt;Bons estudos.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

style="color:#666666;"&gt;de 2009 - sábado&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;De 10 às 13 horas&lt;br /&gt;Praias de Copacabana, Ipanema, Barra da Tijuca, Recreio, Grumari.&lt;br /&gt;Praias de Sepetiba, Ilha de Paquetá e Saquarema.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pelo sexto ano consecutivo, comemorando a Semana Mundial do Meio Ambiente, o Instituto Ecológico Aqualung e seu Projeto Limpeza na Praia, promovem o Evento Limpando &amp;amp; Reciclando. Será uma ação de conscientização de limpeza e reaproveitamento do lixo coletado nas praias e em outras localidades e contará com o trabalho voluntário de alunos da Rede de Ensino, como universidades e colégios públicos, e de várias instituições de educação, como cursos de idiomas, de informática, de artes marciais, escolinhas de surfe, de futebol e de mergulho. O mutirão acontecerá no dia 30 de maio, sábado, com início às 10 horas e término às 13 horas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O lixo, coletado em duplas, será catalogado e, ao término da ação, reaproveitado pelas cooperativas e instituições de reciclagem, servindo como exemplo para as demais ações e campanhas ecológicas. Serão distribuídos um total de 20.000 sacolas plásticas biodegradáveis e compostáveis __ feitas a base de milho __ e luvas a todos que desejarem participar desta nobre campanha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Os oceanos estão cheios de detritos sólidos, que não só deixam os litorais e praias sujos e poluidos como, principalmente, podem provocar uma significativa mortandade de inocentes animais marinhos. Todos nós sabemos que a solução a longo prazo é diminuir a quantidade de resíduos produzidos ou mesmo consumidos. Esse evento de limpeza, que une voluntários de todas as idades e dos mais diversos setores da sociedade, empresários e governantes, é a oportunidade da participação comunitária em ações imediatas e locais de limpeza que contribuem para minimizar no curto prazo o impacto dos resíduos sólidos e suas conseqüências danosas para o ambiente e para a fauna marinha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quase dois terços de todo o lixo que é encontrado pelos voluntários é algum tipo de detrito não degradável a curto prazo. São canudinhos, pontas de cigarro, tampinhas, cotonetes, sacos plásticos, chinelos. Tudo largado na areia, representando para a fauna marinha o maior percentual de materiais ambientalmente perigosos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Restos de redes, linhas de pesca, cordas e sacos plásticos abandonados no mar permanecem nesse ambiente por muitos anos, por sua baixa biodegradabilidade, e acabam vitimando inúmeros animais que se enroscam e acabam morrendo por asfixia ou por inanição. Peixes, aves, focas, tartarugas e golfinhos podem confundir os detritos que ficam boiando no mar com lulas, águas-vivas e outros alimentos que formam parte de sua dieta. Golfinhos já foram encontrados com o estômago cheio de lixo que veio das cidades.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A ponta de cigarro, o item mais coletado no mundo todo, tem ocasionado a morte de inúmeros animais que a confundem com ovas de peixe e a engolem. O mesmo ocorre com os sacos plásticos. Um saco plástico à deriva no mar é facilmente confundido com uma água-viva, componente alimentar de várias espécies de tartarugas-marinhas. Engolindo um saco plástico, a tartaruga pode morrer por asfixia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Identificar as fontes de poluição e dar conhecimento à população dos riscos dos resíduos nos ambientes aquáticos são importantes metas deste evento, que é de todos nós.

The cold seems to make this food even more irresistible, but caution is called for. If eaten in excess, chocolate does not only make us fat, but it also increases cholesterol levels and harms the digestive system. However, if&lt;b style=""&gt; &lt;/b&gt;eaten in moderation (no more than 50 grams a day), chocolate may even benefit our health. It is very nutritious: it has calcium, iron, proteins, and also vitamins A, B, C, D and E. Recently scientists and researchers have discovered that chocolate may also be good for the heart. This happens because flavonóide, a substance in cocoa, helps improve the health of arteries and the heart. There are also studies that say the consumption of chocolate helps combat depression and anxiety.&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'times new roman'; "&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; line-height: 150%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman, times, serif;"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Vocabulary&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:'times new roman';"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'times new roman'; "&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;healthy&lt;/b&gt; - saudável&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'times new roman'; "&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;consumption&lt;/b&gt; – consumo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'times new roman'; "&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;to grow&lt;/b&gt; – crescer&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'times new roman'; "&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;cold &lt;/b&gt;– frio&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'times new roman'; "&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;caution is called for&lt;/b&gt; – an idiom. &lt;/span&gt;= é preciso cautela&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'times new roman'; "&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;fat&lt;/b&gt; – gordo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'times new roman'; "&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;to harm&lt;/b&gt; – prejudicar&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'times new roman'; "&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;iron &lt;/b&gt;– ferro&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'times new roman'; "&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;cocoa&lt;/b&gt; – cacau&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'times new roman'; "&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;anxiety&lt;/b&gt; - ansiedade&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8193185822746691932-8025267521090661157?l=dicasgb8.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dicasgb8.blogspot.com/feeds/8025267521090661157/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://dicasgb8.blogspot.com/2009/05/chocolate-irresistible-and-healthy.html#comment-form' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8193185822746691932/posts/default/8025267521090661157'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8193185822746691932/posts/default/8025267521090661157'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dicasgb8.blogspot.com/2009/05/chocolate-irresistible-and-healthy.html' title='Chocolate:  irresistible and healthy!'/><author><name>gb8</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08474059259330880068</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='29' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZA_faf86Cl8/SgFtl4Q1AiI/AAAAAAAAADU/B1kY_yKsT6A/S220/dicasgb8_logo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ZA_faf86Cl8/Sgo8R-MydII/AAAAAAAAAEY/qxNF1YEGSmk/s72-c/chocolate.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193185822746691932.post-2358379616433503474</id><published>2009-05-07T08:46:00.009-03:00</published><updated>2009-05-22T15:59:43.803-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='eu recomendo'/><title type='text'>Ouça tudo que quiser em inglês !</title><content type='html'>É isso ai galera, hoje venho divulgar um site muito bacana e bem simples de usar, o ODDCAST.

Para muitos isso é muito simples, mas existe muitas pessoas fazendo confusão na hora de abreviar estas datas. Explicando de maneira rápida, basta saber como escrever os números ordinais, ou seja, "first, second, third, fourth, ..." então, está resolvido o problema! [firST, secoND, thiRD, fourTH, fifTH..logo: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th...]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Bom, espero que a informação seja útil.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Mas não acabou por aqui. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Alguém ainda lembra da frase "&lt;em&gt;skeleton staff"&lt;/em&gt; que eu marquei no texto &lt;em&gt;???&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Segundo o dicionário Longman: "equipe reduzida [nun feriado ou em uma greve, etc]"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Isso nada mais é do que aquela famosa palavrinha que conhecemos como "escala de funcionários".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Logo entendemos a frase ... "our stations will be working with a skeleton staff " .. "estaremos trabalhando com uma equipe reduzida (escala).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Em alguns casos também podemos dizer: skeletal team / full-time / limited / part-time / temporary / minimal STAFF.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/br&gt;Happy Labor Day again! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;=]&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8193185822746691932-667256929173308812?l=dicasgb8.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dicasgb8.blogspot.com/feeds/667256929173308812/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://dicasgb8.blogspot.com/2009/04/may-1st-labor-day.html#comment-form' title='1 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8193185822746691932/posts/default/667256929173308812'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8193185822746691932/posts/default/667256929173308812'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dicasgb8.blogspot.com/2009/04/may-1st-labor-day.html' title='May 1st, Labor Day'/><author><name>gb8</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08474059259330880068</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='29' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZA_faf86Cl8/SgFtl4Q1AiI/AAAAAAAAADU/B1kY_yKsT6A/S220/dicasgb8_logo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ZA_faf86Cl8/SfnWA65mkVI/AAAAAAAAADM/Jtmc-mYakbk/s72-c/labor_day_2001.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193185822746691932.post-8074652315326225646</id><published>2009-04-30T07:57:00.004-03:00</published><updated>2009-05-22T16:04:18.093-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Curiosidades'/><title type='text'>What's up bruv ?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZA_faf86Cl8/SfmPq3jIFaI/AAAAAAAAADE/i1u7pwM6OYc/s1600-h/brother9_JC.gif"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330449600598250914" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 194px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 154px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZA_faf86Cl8/SfmPq3jIFaI/AAAAAAAAADE/i1u7pwM6OYc/s200/brother9_JC.gif" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;"What's up bruv ?" "What's happenin' bruv?"&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Provavelmente você já deve ter ouvido esta palavra e se perguntado o que isso significa ou de onde surgiu.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;B-R-U-V é uma versão reduzida de Brother (no sentido de irmão-camarada, parceiro). É usado em situações informais como em letras de músicas (geralmente rap, hip-hop, etc.), também em mensagens de texto (sms) e grupo de amigos.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Em 2008, Dizzee Rascal, um rapper de Londres, lançou uma música chamada 'Dance wiv me'.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;O reality show Big Brother também é referido como 'Big Bruv' em alguns jornais e revistas.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Eles costumam trocar o "O-T-H" pelo "U-V". &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Lembrando que esta palavra é informal, ou seja, você não deve sair por ai usando em qualquer situação. É como as nossas gírias aqui no Brasil, a gente costuma usar com pessoas que temos mais &lt;strong&gt;intimidade&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Muitas pessoas as consideram como 'bad English' ou inútil, mas este assunto poderia ser também discutido em sala de aula, assim como as abreviações que ocorrem em algumas palavras, não é algo super importante de saber, mas fará a diferença!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Outras palavras relacionadas são: Dude, fella, buddy, mate, homeboy e colleague (embora este seja usado em empresas para definir um 'colega de trabalho', também é comum ver nativos usando quando se refere a um menor nível de afinidade, ou seja, ter um colega não significa que este é seu amigo.)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"C ya guys!" &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8193185822746691932-8074652315326225646?l=dicasgb8.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dicasgb8.blogspot.com/feeds/8074652315326225646/comments/default' title='Postar comentários'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://dicasgb8.blogspot.com/2009/04/whats-up-bruv.html#comment-form' title='0 Comentários'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8193185822746691932/posts/default/8074652315326225646'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8193185822746691932/posts/default/8074652315326225646'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dicasgb8.blogspot.com/2009/04/whats-up-bruv.html' title='What&apos;s up bruv ?'/><author><name>gb8</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08474059259330880068</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='29' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZA_faf86Cl8/SgFtl4Q1AiI/AAAAAAAAADU/B1kY_yKsT6A/S220/dicasgb8_logo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ZA_faf86Cl8/SfmPq3jIFaI/AAAAAAAAADE/i1u7pwM6OYc/s72-c/brother9_JC.gif' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193185822746691932.post-2686627614381436233</id><published>2009-04-24T13:45:00.001-03:00</published><updated>2009-05-22T16:04:47.894-03:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='como usar'/><title type='text'>OUGHT TO</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZA_faf86Cl8/SfHtDV8feDI/AAAAAAAAACM/hMVElyUrNEk/s1600-h/05-0610hr.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328300475842263090" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 152px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZA_faf86Cl8/SfHtDV8feDI/AAAAAAAAACM/hMVElyUrNEk/s200/05-0610hr.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; O modal &lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#666666;"&gt;ought to&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt; é parecido com o verbo modal &lt;em&gt;should&lt;/em&gt;. Porém, em relação a um conselho, ele tem mais peso que o&lt;em&gt; should&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;Para aqueles que pretendem enfrentar algum concurso, aconselho entender bem sobre o uso deste modal verb, pois certamente você irá esbarrar com eles.
