  • 5 “FALSE FRIENDS” to avoid at work - False Cognates

    Check your skills! Are these "false friends" or not?

    INTRO: 00:00 - 8:14

    Pretend: 8:15

    Realize 11:25

    Alleviate 15:10

    Sensible 19:30

    To Converse 23:50

    Agenda 27:15

    Compromise 31:48



    False cognates (words that look like Portuguese but don't really have the same meaning) can make you say something that you don’t want to.


    And to reach the 2% English, we need to be #accurate and to communicate really well (after all, we want to open doors to any professional challenge, right?)


    • Translation “Jimmy” and what it has to do with these false friends

    • Quiz: which words are in fact false friends and which ones are not? Interactive class!

  • Pronounce ING like a PRO

    Hey, guys! Welcome to Fluent For Real. If you want to boost your career and you need English to do that, you are in the right place. Take your English from “ok” intermediate to advanced with us.


    Did you know that the "G" is silent in some of these words?

    King, Angry, Hungry, Hanger, Bringing.

    Which ones?


    The topic was the sound of the "ING":

    - at the end of words like "Working", "King", "Young"

    - in the middle, like "Bringing", "Wrongly", "Angry".


    - We focused on the two biggest mistakes made by Brazilian learners.


    When to pronounce the "g"? When to make it silent? Is the "ing" sound strong or not? Watch to find out!

    MC here! First of all, thank you Shelly Jean, my colleague here in Canada, who was such a sweetheart to join us in trying this challenge!


    I had loads of fun challenging her into guessing which popular sayings were being portrayed by emojis. Could she guess them? She also explained what they mean, and whether or not she thinks we should use them in the professional setting.


    Try to guess as you watch!


    Check it out and learn 13 new sayings! Which one is your favorite? Let us know in the comment section!
