- How to improve English pronunciation Listening + speaking. There is no escape from listening if you want to improve on speaking. Those are two skills that keep together. Think: when hearing, you assimilate the word, interpreting it (rereading several times to understand the context, using dictionaries and translators), and then you can play it, repeating the same sound you heard first. This way, you train the pronunciation, but we must always practice this lesson, let's say. Phonetics. If you want to improve your pronunciation in English, you must be aware of the phonetics of the language. So, you know how each letter of the alphabet has its particularities when saying it in a word. For example, the letter “E” has one sound alone, but in the word “together”, the sound is different. Got it? Knowing things like this gives you a better view of how to speak and improve your pronunciation in English. But, again, you need to train. Do specific exercises. Find courses, read a lot and understand the difference between words in different contexts. So, you improve all the aspect of learning the English language correctly, since it is a language so different from our Portuguese language. You know? What do you think about it? The pronunciation should be trained every day and must be present in your everyday life, even though you still can't interpret it completely in all contexts.

- How to improve your English pronunciation How to improve your English pronunciation English Pronunciation How to improve English pronunciation? Ah. This question is very discussed and very questioned. After all, it’s not a skill you learn overnight. It takes discipline, focus, desire and a lot of perception to understand that the English language is another language, that works in a different way from Portuguese and its phonetics is very specific. When talking about English language pronunciation, it’s not enough just to memorize the words and then release them. You need, above all, understanding on how the structure of the sentences occurs, the interpretation, the displacement of the adjectives, pronouns and other aspects that provide a broad vision of the language. Of course listening to music and watching movies help a lot, however, one thing is missing: training. Sometimes, what happens is that the person is too shy or too insecure when talking in English. Know that everyone will go through it, having their own difficulties to overcome. And the pronunciation is one of them. To improve the English pronunciation, you need to practice it. However, the most important thing is that you recognize that it's not just it that will make you improve your pronunciation. If you really want to learn how to speak in English, you need to study basing on four skills (reading, listening, writing, speaking) together, just for you to improve gradually all of them, with no delay in any area. Of course there will be people who will enjoy more one particular skill, and others that will find it more difficult, what is completely normal and even expected.

Escreve sobre as vantagens e desvantagens de ter animais de estimação em casa (Expressão Oral B1_2)
Até certo ponto, as vantagens e desvantagens dependem do tipo de animal. Por exemplo, é claro que uma cão é muito mais útil do que um porquinho da Índia para defender a casa contra um ladrão. Ao mesmo tempo, um gato pode caçar os ratos na cozinha mas um pássaro não pode (a menos que seja uma coruja!) .
Muita gente acha que ter animais de estimação em casa pode reduzir o "estresse" e melhorar a sua saúde. Apenas ver os peixes dourados e peixes tropicais, a nadar na água calma é relaxante. Animais grandes como cães e gatos parecem como amigos. Os seus pelos calorosos dá conforto aos solitários. Além disso, alguém que comprou uma cão fica obrigado dar um passeio com ele diariamente no ar fresco. Isto é muito saudável!
Às vezes, os pais compram um animal de estimação para ensinar as suas crianças como cuidar de um animal, e mais tarde, o que significa a morte. Animais pequenos são bons para este propósito. Na minha família possuímos, amamos e, após da passagem do tempo, enterramos três porquinhos da Índia, por exemplo.
Animais de estimação também têm desvantagens. Cuidar um animal é muito trabalho. Animais grandes fazem barulho e muitas vezes arruínam os moveis com as suas patas e dentes. Tem de comprar comida, e quando estão doentes, tem de pagar o veterinário. Pode ter mal cheiro, e o seu excremento não é nem um pouco higiênico.
Mas sobretudo, os animais de estimação são populares porque as pessoas gostam de ter um amigo pequeno na casa.0 votedMay 9, 20161- Can I use "hadn't you better start studying?" and "Had you not better start studying?" Hello. Are both the sentences grammatically correct: - hadn't you better start studying? - Had you not better start studying? I am confused about where the word "had" goes. Thanks in advance for your help.May 9, 201622
