It was a pleasure to meet Alexandre. He displayed a good understanding of English and was a bee to express himself with only a few errors, which we can work on in future classes. Many Thanks, Ross

    How can I use "supposed"? I'm trying to understand when I should use "supposed", for this reason, I wrote some examples below. Can you correct the mistakes? If you work in a global company, you are supposed to you talk in English. I am not supposed to use that because it is so informal t-shirt. We should go to the cinema right now, It is supposed to be empty. If I win the lottery, I am supposed to be very rich. You are work very hard, you are supposed to be promoted in the next months. I texted you, you are supposed to respond me. I am applying for jobs, I am supposed to get a job in the next days. She has been studying Polish at least 8 years, She was supposed to writing better. She is studying hard, she is supposed to pass the test. what am I supposed to say? what was I supposed to say?

    Idiomatic expression - Expressão idiomática In this notebook, I'm going to talk about “Brazilian Expression”. It is important to mention that to translate and interpret some expressions are so hard but I took care to express the meaning of the expressions. Another important point is the origin of the expressions aren't official - Though I'm not sure if there are official sources for that - I just looked at Google. I hope you guys enjoy the text and help me with some advice about my English. :) 1. The cow went to the swamp! o What does it mean? It’s just like something failed. • Why? Have you already tried to take off a cow from the swap? It’s supposed to be so hard. 2. To be born with "ass" turned to the moon. o What does it mean? To be very lucky. • Why? Probably the Indians gave birth of the squat position, “with ass turned to the moon”. Therefore, the babies had the luck to born in this country, said the Portuguese. 3. Elbow pain. o What does it mean? To be jealous and get upset with someone. • Why? It makes allusion to people who go to the bar, and put their elbows on the table and keep on drinking and complaining. 4. To kick the stick that holds the tent/stand. o What does it mean? That means to make a drastic decision. • Why? It has been said that Dom Pedro II to wake up the soldiers he kicked the stick that holds the tent. 5. To hold a candle. o What does it mean? I’m supposed to disturb the couple and feel lonely. • Why? Domestic services used to hold the candles for to lighten the castle. Sometimes it also happened during lovely met. 6. To buy a cat for/instead of a rabbit. o What does it mean? Make a wrong decision. • Why? Rabbit does not hunt; this way isn’t a good investment. 7. Dude of the sky! o What does it mean? You are just a great friend! • Why? Because God is our the best friend. Just it. 8. Even the cow to touch! o What does it mean? It will never happen. • Why? The cow doesn’t touch, does It? 9. Go pick up little coconuts! o What does it mean? Go away! • Why? Pick up little coconuts is not a simple task. Thanks a lot! :)

    Brazil: more competitive market for apps Hi, this my first entry here about technology, I'll be so glad if some friends on Italk help me with any advice. Brazil leads the list of countries as the more competitive market in the world for application mobile, according to the survey called "2016 App Olympics", conducted by Cheetah Ad Platform. The country showed at the top, ahead of the Mexico and United States, as the highest engagement per users and also with as the market most competitive for mobile apps. Brazilians use average 29 apps and engagement with 53 per month. For here, the areas with low competition are education, action, racing and simulation, whereas the high competition is productive, personalization, social and games, that proves the great market share for to exploration over here. This away, work in this area gives me a great perspective of professional future.
