Increasing Vocabulary (part 1)
The vocabulary I'm trying to learn is in capital letters. Those words are translated to portuguese in the parenthesis (parentheses)
- Carol is at the hospital because she was TRAMPLED in a car accident. (atropelada)
= run over (Phrasal verb: To hit someone or something with a vehicle and drive over them, injuring or killing them).
Examples
- Carol is in hospital because she was run over
-Carol was trampled by the crowd at the bull fighting in Spain.
-Carol trampled the flowers when we walked through the garden, instead of using the path.
(Trample: to walk on something / someone, usually damaging or hurting it)
- That guy is so UNPLEASANT, I don't feel comfortable when he is around. (desagradável)
*Parabens, muito bom!
- She got mad and RIPPED APART all your important documents. (rasgar em pedacinhos)
- He always acts in a RECKLESS way. (afobado/impulsivo)
mais normal:
Examples
- He is so reckless.
- Stop being so reckless.
We often use it more with the verb, ‘to be’, to describe it as either a personality trait, or a way of being.
- I LOATHE routines. That's the reason why I'm always trying to learn and do something new. (odeio/detesto)
- Muito bom!
