Infinitive/ Bare Infinitive/ Gerund

Infinitive and Gerund

O infinitivo é a forma original do verbo tal qual se encontra num dicionário. Pode aparecer na frase com ou sem o “to”. O gerúndio é o verbo com a terminação –ing.

O infinitivo com “to” é de uso mais amplo aparecendo após a grande maioria dos verbos, adjetivos, advérbios, nomes, pronomes, etc:

I expect to be there.
This car is hard to park.
She knows where to find the keys.

Também pode indicar propósito, finalidade:

They went there to buy something = They went there in order to buy something.

Use o infinitivo sem o “to”:

1. após modal verbs (can, could, must, etc.)
2. após os auxiliares do-does-did-will-would
3. após had better, would rather, rather than
4. após as preposições but e except: She did nothing but complain.
5. após os verbos make e let: You make me feel brand new.
Let me help you!

O gerúndio é usado como substantivo nas funções de sujeito, objeto indireto ou objeto indireto (após preposição use sempre o gerúndio):

1. Swimming is his favourite sport.
2. He likes swimming.
3. They were prevented from swimming.

É usado também após os verbos go e come indicando atividade física, e na expressão go shopping:

We’re going riding this afternoon.
When are you going shopping? As soon as we get our salary.

Sempre use o gerúndio após os verbos abaixo:

Admit                         Understand
Avoid                           Excuse
Appreciate                   Finish
Consider                       Keep
Delay                           Mention
Fancy                           Mind
Deny                             Miss
Detest                           Practice
Dislike                          Resist
Enjoy                            Risk
Escape                         Quit

Da mesma forma com os verbos de percepção:

Feel                 See
Observe           Notice
Hear                 Watch

Atente para o uso das seguintes expressões abaixo. Algumas vêm acompanhadas de infinitivo (com ou sem o “to”), outras de gerúndio:

1. Had better (’d better): é melhor, seria melhor - sem o “to” (expressa conselho)

You’d better tell me the truth.
Had she better try again?
You’d better not leave late.

2. Would rather (’d rather): preferir

We’d rather stay home.
Would you rather watch tv?
I’d rather not see her now.

3. Used to: costumava; indica ação habitual no passado:

I used to love you.
Did he use to play tennis as a child?
They didn’t use to go to the movies.

4. Be used to/Be accustomed to/ get used to: estar acostumado a – são sempre seguidas de gerúndio porque o “to”, no caso, é preposição:

We’re used to getting up late.

5. Can’t help: não poder deixar de – sempre seguida de gerúndio:

I can’t help falling in love.

6. To be worth/worthwhile: valer a pena

It was worth listening to him.

identifying figurative language

Figurative or Literal meaning?

  

Figurative Language 3o. Ano

The term “figurative” is an antonym of  ”literal.”  In literal language the words convey meaning exactly as defined, whereas in figurative language there is room for interpretation.  An effort is required on the part of the interpreter to determine the speaker or writer’s intended meaning.  The listener or reader must “figure” out what is meant.  This page will discuss common figures of speech, provide examples, and offer resources to help you learn, review, or teach figurative language.  It is important to note that, as an educator, I make a distinction between figurative language and poetic devices.  Though the skills are related, I find that it is easier to understand these concepts in separate units.  This page focuses exclusively on figurative language techniques.

Hyperbole

Hyperbole is when the writer or speaker exaggerates for emphasis or effect. 

Examples of hyperbole:

1. Yeah, I already beat that game 80,000 years ago.

2.  Nobody listens to that song anymore.

3.  Old Mr. Johnson has been teaching here since the Stone Age.

4.  These shoes are killing me.

Be conscious of the fact that hyperbole is often confused with understatement (saying too little or minimizing the effect of a statement).

Idiom

Idioms are commonly used figurative expressions. Idiom is not a distinct figurative language technique. Rather, most idioms are similes, metaphors, hyperbole, or other figurative language techniques. For example, the idiom “I’m so hungry that I could eat a horse,” is actually an example of hyperbole. And the idiom, “dropping like flies,” is actually a simile. What separates an idiom from its original technique, however, is that idioms have been so commonly used that they became incorporated into the colloquial lexicon of native language speakers. In other words, native speakers use them so much that they don’t even know that they are using figurative language.

Here are some idiom examples:

1. Bob’s new corner office was just the icing on the cake (metaphor).

2. After eating candy, Billy ran around like a chicken with his head cut off (simile).

3.  That new car cost an arm and a leg (hyperbole).

5. Tom said that he changed but actions speak louder than words (personification).

Idioms are generally used so frequently by native language speakers that it often goes unnoticed that figurative language is even being used. When someone is learning a new language, one of the milestones of progress is when the learner begins to understand and use the language idiomatically or colloquially.

Metaphor

Metaphor is a comparison between two dissimilar things without using the word “like” or “as” to make the comparison. 

Here are some example metaphors:

1.  The path of resentment is easier to travel than the road to forgiveness.

Personification

Personification is when the speaker or writer gives human characteristics, qualities, or traits to an object or idea. I

Here are some examples of personification:

1. The moon turned over to face the day.

Simile

Similes are comparisons between two unlike things using the word “like” or “as.”

Here are some examples of simile:

1. My mother’s kitchen was like a holy place: you couldn’t wear your shoes, you had to sit there at a certain time, and occasionally we’d pray.

Understatement

Understatements are when the speaker or writer express an idea with significantly less force than is expected or would be required to accurately describe an idea. Understatement can be understood as the opposite of hyperbole. In hyperbole, the statement goes too far; whereas in understatement, the statement does not go far enough.  Understatement can be used to downplay a negative or to be humorous.

Here are some example understatements:

1.It might take her a little while to get over her husband’s affair.

1o. ano- Routine ( Nine to five) Dolly Parton

Tumble outta bed and I stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
And yawn and stretch and try to come to life
Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin'
Out on the street the traffic starts jumpin'
The folks like me on the job from nine to five.

Workin' nine to five, what a way to make a living
Barely gettin' by it's all takin' and no giving
They just use your mind and they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it
Nine to five, for service and devotion
You would think that I would deserve a fair promotion
Want to move ahead but the boss won't seem to let m
I swear sometimes that man is out to get me.
They let you dream just to watch 'em shatter
You're just a step on the boss-man's ladder
But you got dreams he'll never take away
You're in the same boat with a lotta your friends
Waitin' for the day your ship'll come in
Then the tide's gonna turn and it's all gonna roll your way.


Workin' nine to five what a way to make a livin'
Barely gettin' by it's all takin' and no givin'
They just use your mind and you never get the credit

It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it

Nine to five, yeah, they got you where they want you

There's a better life and you think about it, don't you

It's a rich man's game no matter what they call it

And you spend your life puttin' money in his wallet.



Nine to five, whoa, what a way to make a livin'

Barely gettin' by it's all takin' and no givin'
They just use your mind and they never give you credit
It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it.

Nine to five, yeah, they got you where they want you
There's a better life and you dream about it, don't you
It's a rich man's game no matter what they call it...
