Speaking Glossary

to be, have got

There is / There are

El Present Simple

O verbo to be significa “ser / estar”. En presente ten tres formas: am, is e are, que adoitan contraer co pronome persoal suxeito. En negativa engádese a partícula not ás tres formas, ou a contracción n’t ás formas is e are. En interrogativa, o verbo ponse diante do suxeito e o verbo. As respostas curtas fórmanse co pronome persoal suxeito e o verbo to be, sen contraer en afirmativa ou contraído coa partícula not en negativa.

Are they at the bank? No, they aren’t. They’re at the cinema. (Están no banco? Non. Están no cine.)

O verbo have got significa “ter” e expresa o que posuímos ou os trazos de alguén ou algo cando o describimos. En presente ten dúas formas, have got e has got. En negativa engádese a partícula not ou a contracción n’t (haven’t / hasn’t). En interrogativa ponse Have / Has + o suxeito + got. Nas respostas curtas ponse o pronome persoal suxeito e have / haven’t ou has / hasn’t, sen got.

Have you got a pig? No, I haven’t, but I’ve got a rabbit. (Tes un porco? Non, pero teño un coello.)

There is e There are significan “hai”. There is vai diante de nomes contábeis en singular e de nomes non contábeis. There are vai diante de nomes contábeis en plural.

There is a snake in the desert. (Hai unha serpe no deserto.) There is cheese in the sandwich. (Hai queixo no sándwich.) There are books in the library. (Hai libros na biblioteca.)

A negativa fórmase engadindo not ou a contracción n’t a is e are.

There are not / aren’t T-shirts in the shop. (Non hai camisetas na tenda.)

En interrogativa ponse Is / Are diante de there. Nas respostas curtas vólvese á orde normal e, de seren negativas, empréganse as formas contraídas.

Is there beef on the menu? Yes, there is. / No, there isn’t. (Hai tenreira na carta? Hai. Si. / Non.)

O Present Simple emprégase para expresar hábitos e verdades xerais, e para falar de gustos, opinións e horarios. Adoita ir acompañado das seguintes expresións temporais: every day (todos os días), at night (pola noite), on + día da semana en plural, etc. Todas poden ir ao comezo ou ao final da frase, mais adoitan poñerse ao final. Tamén se empregan estes adverbios de frecuencia: always (sempre), usually (polo xeral), often (a miúdo), sometimes (ás veces, algunhas veces), rarely (estraña / rara vez) y never (nunca, xamais).

I always play tennis with my brother. (Sempre xogo ao tenis co meu irmán.) Surfing is a water sport. (O surf é un deporte acuático.) I love strawberries. (Encántanme os amorodos.) The post office opens at 9.00. (A oficina de correos abre ás 9.)

En afirmativa é o mesmo que o infinitivo sen to, agás na 3ª persoa do singular, na que se engade -s. Nalgúns casos, dependendo da terminación do verbo, engádese -es:

• Seremataenss, sh, ch e x: pass ➝ passes wash ➝ washes teach ➝ teaches mix ➝ mixes

• Seremataeno: do ➝ does go ➝ goes

• Seremataenconsoante + y, cámbiase o y por un i antes de engadirlle a terminación -es: study ➝ studies carry ➝ carries

A negativa fórmase poñendo don’t / doesn’t diante do verbo.

I don’t play basketball. (Non xogo ao baloncesto.)

En interrogativa ponse Do / Does + o suxeito + o verbo. Nas respostas curtas ponse o pronome persoal suxeito + do / does ou don’t / doesn’t, segundo corresponda.

Do you like skiing? Yes, I do. / No, I don’t. (Gústache o esquí? Gústame. Si. / Non.)

Se a pregunta ten unha partícula interrogativa, ponse esta primeiro, antes de do / does.

Where do you buy medicine? (Onde mercas medicinas?)

O Present Continuous expresa o que está a ocorrer no intre de falar ou no período de tempo presente. Adoita ir acompañado das expresións temporais: at the moment (neste momento), now (agora), right now (agora mesmo, arestora), today (hoxe), etc. Todas poden ir ao comezo ou ao final da frase, mais adoitan poñerse ao final.

Barry is swimming in the river. (Barry está a nadar no río.)

A afirmativa fórmase co presente do verbo to be + un verbo rematado en -ing. Nos seguintes casos, cómpre reparar nestas regras ortográficas para engadir -ing ao verbo:

• Seremataene mudo, perde o e: arrive ➝ arriving

contraste entre o Present Simple e o Present Continuous

O Present Simple expresa hábitos, mentres que o Present Continuous sinala o que está a ocorrer no intre de falar.

I usually make pottery, but now I’m making a sculpture. (Polo xeral fago cerámica, mais agora estou a facer unha escultura.)

O superlativo emprégase para comparar máis de dúas cousas, animais ou persoas e dicir que unha salienta sobre as demais. Para formalo tamén cómpre ter en conta a lonxitude do adxectivo:

o Past Simple

O Past Simple emprégase para expresar accións ocorridas nun momento concreto do pasado e para contar historias en pasado. Por iso adoita haber na frase algunha expresión temporal que sinale cando ocorreu a acción: as que levan ago (hai) ao final da expresión, yesterday (onte), last month (o mes pasado), etc. Todas poden ir ao comezo ou ao final da frase, pero adoitan poñerse ao final.

I went to New York last month. (Fun a Nova York o mes pasado.)

O Past Simple dos verbos regulares fórmase engadindo -ed á forma base do verbo. Para iso cómpre reparar nestes regras ortográficas:

• Seremataene mudo, só se engade -d: invite ➝ invited dance ➝ danced

• Seremataenconsoante + y, cámbiase o y por un i: try ➝ tried cry ➝ cried

• Seéde1sílabaeremataen1 vogal + 1 consoante que non sexa w ou x, dóbrase a consoante: plan ➝ planned stop ➝ stopped pero fix ➝ fixed

• Seéde2sílabasetenoacentonaderradeira,dóbraseaúltimaconsoante: prefer ➝ preferred pero listen ➝ listened

• Seremataenl, dóbrase esa letra: travel ➝ travelled

Os verbos irregulares son diferentes e cómpre aprender de memoria as súas formas de pasado (ver páxs. 33-34).

A negativa fórmase poñendo didn’t diante do verbo e é igual en todas as persoas do singular e plural.

3. Max doesn’t know anything about computers. He give people advice.

4. You wear flip-flops at a wedding.

5. That dress is beautiful. You wear it for the party.

Son verbos auxiliares, polo que sempre van seguidos dun verbo na forma base (infinitivo sen to). Non se conxugan, así que non hai que engadir -s na 3ª persoa do singular. En negativa engádese a partícula not ou a contracción n't ao verbo modal, e en interrogativa ponse o verbo modal + o suxeito + o verbo na forma base.

• Should emprégase para dar ou pedir consellos e para dicir o que se debería ou non facer. He should wear his new coat. (Debería poñer o seu abrigo novo.)

• Must significa “deber” e expresa a obriga e a necesidade ou conveniencia de facer algo. You must wear formal clothes. (Debes poñer roupa formal.)

• Mustn’t expresa prohibición, que algo non está permitido, e tamén que algo non se debe facer porque non convén ou non é correcto facelo.

Girls mustn’t wear miniskirts at school. (As rapazas non deben levar minisaias ao colexio.)

• Can significa “saber” cando expresa habilidade ou capacidade para facer algo, e “poder” cando expresa posibilidade ou permiso.

My sister can play the piano very well. (A miña irmá sabe tocar o piano moi ben.) You can find the gloves in many colours. (Podes atopar as luvas en moitas cores.)

• Could é o pasado de can. Expresa habilidade e posibilidade no pasado. She could swim when she was four years old. (Sabía nadar cando tiña catro anos.) I couldn’t buy a tracksuit yesterday. (Onte non puiden mercar un chándal.)

En interrogativa tamén serve para pedir permiso ou favores, pero de maneira máis educada que con can. Could you lend me your earrings for the party? (Poderías prestarme os teus pendentes para a festa?)

• Have to significa “ter que” e expresa, como must, a obriga ou necesidade de facer algo. A diferenza é que have to si se conxuga e, por iso, a forma para a 3ª persoa do singular é diferente (has to). Ademais, emprégase nos tempos que must non ten.

He has to finish his homework this afternoon. (Ten que rematar os deberes esta tarde.) It was late and they had to leave. (Era tarde e tiveron que marchar.)

En negativa ponse don’t / doesn’t have to + o verbo, e significa “non ter que” ou “non ter por que”. You don’t have to dress like that. (Non tes que / por que vestirte así.)

Lembra que have to significa o mesmo que must, pero don’t have to e mustn’t non son equivalentes. You don’t have to go. (Non tes que / por que ir.) [non é preciso] You mustn’t go. (Non debes ir.) [está prohibido]

En interrogativa ponse Do / Does + o suxeito + have to + o verbo. E nas respostas curtas ponse o pronome persoal suxeito + do / does ou don’t / doesn’t.

Do I have to wear a tie? Yes, you do. / No, you don’t. (Teño que levar gravata? Tes. Si. / Non.)


1.Youmust / mustn’t close the window. It’sraining.

2.Themobilephonemust / mustn’t get wet.

contraste entre o Present Perfect Simple e o Past Simple

O Present Perfect Simple sinala que o ocorrido no pasado garda relación co presente, mentres que as accións en Past Simple non afectan ao presente.

As expresións temporais empregadas co Present Perfect Simple non sinalan cando ocorreu a acción. En cambio, as empregadas co Past Simple si especifican en que momento concreto ocorreu.

My parents have gone to the theatre. (Meus pais foron ao teatro.)My parents went to the theatre last night. (Meus pais foron ao teatro esta noite.)

Grammar Appendix

A voz pasiva en presente e en pasado

Coa voz pasiva saliéntase a acción do verbo e non o suxeito que a realiza, xa sexa porque non é importante ou se sobreentende, ou porque non se sabe quen é. En inglés emprégase moito a pasiva, mais en galego adoita traducirse o verbo na voz activa ou na forma impersoal con “se”.

A afirmativa fórmase con to be en presente ou en pasado + o participio do verbo principal (rematado en -ed se é regular; se é irregular, podes consultar a listaxe das páxs. 33-34).

A battery is needed to use the mobile phone. (Precísase unha batería para empregar o móbil.)I was given a new camera yesterday. (Agasalláronme cunha cámara nova onte.)

En negativa engádese a partícula not ou a contracción n’t ao verbo to be, seguido do participio.

A whiteboard wasn’t used in my classroom. (Na miña clase non se empregou unha pizarra branca.)

En interrogativa ponse o verbo to be en presente ou pasado + o suxeito + o participio do verbo principal. E nas respostas curtas vai primeiro o pronome persoal suxeito e despois do verbo to be no tempo correspondente, sen contraer en afirmativa ou contraído coa partícula not en negativa.

Is a calculator permitted in exams? Yes, it is. / No, it isn’t. (Permítese unha calculadora nos exames? Permítese. Si. / Non.)

Se se quere amentar quen realiza ou realizou a acción, ponse o final da frase precedido de by.

Tablets are used by many teens. (As tabletas son empregadas por moitos adolescentes.)
