THE VERB TO BE (ser/estar)
►Quero salientar, logo de início, que, além dos significados básicos de
ser e estar, o verbo to be é muito usado no sentido de ficar (tornar-se).
TO BE (present tense).
►Neste emprego do verbo to be devem insister porque a maioria das
pessoas que aprendem English costuma associar o to be apenas com ser
e estar, jamais com o verbo ficar.
Exemple: John is my friend. (O John é meu amigo)
They are American actors. (Eles são atores (norte-)
americanos.)
Peter and Susan were in a hurry. (O peter e a Susan estavam com
pressa)
They will be at the club. (eles estarão no clube)

(Mary ficou contrariada quando ouviu a notícia.)
Ou ainda, não esteve ou estava, nem foi ou era
I would be very grateful to you.
Eu lhe ficaria muito grato. (não seria ou estaria)

THE VERB TO HAVE (O VERBO TER)
The verb TO HAVE (ter) é o auxiliar utilizado para composto do perfect tenses,
verbo principal e modal verb (have to).
TO HAVE – como verbo principal (ter, possuir).
To have – vem sempre seguido de um substantivo, que pode ser precedido por
um adjetivo, ou por um pronome.
Como todo verbo principal, to have (no infinitivo) pede o auxiliar do para
compor a forma negativa e a interrogativa.
Simple present (presente) TO HAVE (eu tenho) - nas formas:
Afirmativa
Negativa
Interrogativa
– 3ª pessoa do singular; e have – demais
pessoas.
- does not (doesn’t) have – 3ª pessoas do
singular; e do not (don’t) have – demais
pessoas.
- Does + sujeito + have – 3ª pessoa do
singular.
Do + sujeito + have - demais pessoas.
Simple past (pretérito perfeito/imperfeito) - HAD (eles
tinham) nas formas:
Afirmativa
Negativa
Interrogativa
- had – todas as pessoas
- did not have – todas as pessoas (did’nt)
- did + sujeito + have – todas as pessoas
Simple future (futuro do presente) – WILL HAVE (eu terei) nas
formas:
Afirmativa
Negativa
Interrogativa
- will have – todas as pessoas
- will not have – todas as pessoas (won’t)
- will + sujeito + have – todas as pessoas
OBS.: Como o verbo principal, to have, além de expressar posse, pode
expressar também ação relacionada a uma refeição, substituindo to drink
(beber, tomar) e to eat (comer).
1) I had breakfast at seven o’clock. a) Let’s have lunch together! b) What
are you going to have: wine or beer?
- No sentido de posse, já sabemos que to have não aceita gerúndio. Porém
quando substitui to drink ou to eat, o gerúndio pode ser usado. a) I’m
having dinner. b) He’s having a cup of coffee.
2) Além desses dois usos, to have pode ainda, ser utilizado em algumas
expressões:
a) Have a good time! b) Have a good test! c) Have a nice weekend!
Attention People!
http://grammarfocus-easy.blogspot.com/ 59
Empregado no sentido de ter de, ter que, expressando obrigação,
necessidade, have vem sempre seguindo de um verbo no infinitivo (com to).
Nesse caso, to have comporta-se do mesmo modo que um verbo principal na
forma afirmativa, negativa e interrogativa.
Simple present - verbo no infinitivo
Afirmativa
Negativa
Interrogativa
I have to do my homework. (tenho que fazer)
She doesn’t have to set the table. (não tem que)
Do you have to go now? (tem que ir)
Simple past - verbo no infinitivo
Afirmativa
Negativa
Interrogativa
I had to tell dim the truth. (tive que contar )
He didn’t have to pay the fine. (não teve que
pagar)
Did they have to walk ten kilometers?
(tiveram que caminhar)
Simple future - verbo no infinitivo
Afirmativa
Negativa
Interrogativa
Tom will have to go by bus. (terá que ir)
Tom won’t have to go by bus. (não terá que
ir)
Will Tom have to go by bus? (terá que ir)
HAVE, HAVE TO; HAVE GOT; HAVE GOT TO
To have, como você sabe, significa ter, possuir, e, seguido de to, significa ter
de, ter que, no sentido de obrigação, necessidade.
Em ambos os casos, os native speakers freqüentemente acrescentam got
(particípio de get) depois de have. No sentido de possuir em nada altera o
significado. Porém, no sentido de obrigação, necessidade, reforça e dá maior
ênfase.
LUCY has got two brothers and three sisters. (tem)
Have you got five dollars to lend me? (tem)
I’ ve got to be there at 5 pm. (tenho que)
They’ve got to help you! (têm que)
OBS.: Essa construção com got só pode ser empregada no presente. Nos
demais tempos, emprega-se apenas to have.
Charles had to leave early. (teve) ;
We had a good opportunity. (tivemos)
Susan will have to see a doctor. (terá);
I don’t know if I passed; I’ll have an answer tomorrow.(terei)

Ex.: I am Brazilian. - Pronome objeto: é usado como objeto direto ou objeto indireto. Ex.: Bob loves her. Orações com dois objetos: Ex.: He gave me some flowers. (Enfatiza o objeto direto) He gave some flowers to me. (enfatiza o objeto indireto) ELEMENTARY Choose the correct alternative. 1 – (We, Us) offers get up early. 2 – I usually meet (him, he) at school. 3 – What is the problem with (they, them)? LESSON ONE
  • 6. http://grammarfocus-easy.blogspot.com/ 6 INTERMEDIATE Substitute the correct pronouns for the underlined word(s). 1 – Apes are very intelligent animals. 2 – The teacher is doing her work in the teachers’ room. 3 - What’s the problem with the girls?

She is making him a cake. 1 – He is writing a card to her. 2 – They are buying a birthday present to their mother. 3 – He always asks difficult questions to us

  • 8. http://grammarfocus-easy.blogspot.com/ 8 THE VERB TO BE (ser/estar) ►Quero salientar, logo de início, que, além dos significados básicos de ser e estar, o verbo to be é muito usado no sentido de ficar (tornar-se). TO BE (present tense). ►Neste emprego do verbo to be devem insister porque a maioria das pessoas que aprendem English costuma associar o to be apenas com ser e estar, jamais com o verbo ficar. Exemple: John is my friend. (O John é meu amigo) They are American actors. (Eles são atores (norte-) americanos.) Peter and Susan were in a hurry. (O peter e a Susan estavam com pressa) They will be at the club. (eles estarão no clube) Mary was upset when she heard the news. (Mary ficou contrariada quando ouviu a notícia.) Ou ainda, não esteve ou estava, nem foi ou era I would be very grateful to you. Eu lhe ficaria muito grato. (não seria ou estaria) TO BE (Present tense): Afirmativa Negativa Interrogativa I am I am not Am I? You are You are not Are you? He is He is not Is he? She is She is not Is she? It is It is not Is it? We are We are not Are we? You are You are not Are you? They are They are not Are they? ► Forma-se o negativo colocando-se not após o verbo. ► Forma-se a interrogativa colocando-se o verbo antes do sujeito. ► Formas abreviadas: ‘re (are), ‘s (is), isn’t (is not), aren’t (are not). LESSON THREE
