A cantora americana Ariana Grande lançou seu primeiro álbum em 2013, já foi indicada a 260 prêmios, ganhou 81 deles, e tem fãs de todas as idades no mundo inteiro. Um ótimo resultado para quem não tem nem 30 anos (ela nasceu em 1993).
Hoje vamos estudar inglês com um pequeno trecho de uma de suas músicas: Thank you, next. Leia as frases e tente descobrir os erros, colocados aqui propositalmente para você relembrar algumas regras do idioma.
Thought I will end up with Sean
But he wasn’t a match
Wrote some musics about Ricky
Now I listen and laughter
Even almost got married
And for Pete, I’m so thankfull
Wish I could tell thank you to Malcolm
‘Cause he was an angel
One taught to me love
One taught for me patience
And one taught me pain
Now, I’m so amazing
Say I’ve loved and I’ve lost
But that’s not what I see
So, look what I got
Look what you taught me
And for that, I say
Thank you, next (next)
Thought I’d end up with Sean
Comentários:
I think I will / I thought I would (ou I’d)
Eu acho que vou / Eu achava que iria.
Wrote some songs about Ricky
Comentários:
music – incontável: I like/ I study music
song – contável: I love this song

Now I listen and laugh
Comentários:
laughter – risada, gargalhada (substantivo)
to laugh – rir, gargalhar (verbo)
And for Pete, I’m so thankful
Comentários:
Normalmente, o sufixo -ful remete à ideia de “cheio de”. Mas preste atenção: sempre com um “l” só. Veja outros exemplos: wonderful, hopeful, grateful, careful, thoughtful, colorful, powerful, useful
Wish I could say thank you to Malcolm
Comentários:
“You say something to someone” or “You tell someone something”
Em ambos os casos, você conta ou diz algo para alguém. Mas veja que a estrutura é diferente. Você não pode usar “say someone” ou “tell to someone“.
One taught me love. One taught me patience
Comentários:
You teach (past: taught) me, teach him, teach her, teach us. Não precisa usar o “to”.
Or
You teach something to somebody: He teaches English to advanced students.
