How do you pronounce "oranges", "offices" or "places"?

This week's podcast is about a common struggle for a lot of Brazilian learners: the pronunciation of the final "es" sound after certain consonants: S, SS, CH, GE, among others.

We talk about the rules for the "es" in those cases, we demonstrate the wrong way x the right way, and practice with words on the screen.

In this week's live lesson (We are live on Instagram every Wednesday at 9pm BRT! Tune in! www.instagram.com/fluentforreal), we talked about Causative Form, a very idiomatic structure that expresses favors and services the right way. In English, we need to be careful: don't say that you DID something, when in fact it was a service that you contracted. Ex: "I did my nails last week". And this affects the workplace, too! We are always transfering tasks, and if we inform it well, we don't sound rude or bossy.

Sorry for the quality of the video; the internet connection where we were was not the best! We promise to do better and better for you guys!

Check out the video! And soon, we'll post a complete lesson here on Youtube.

Hey!

Renata here. In this video, I brought some cool facts and my personal opinion - based on my experience and articles I have read - about a very strong belief you find online and offline: That Native Speakers are the only people who can actually teach you English, that can get you to fluency, advanced level and beautiful, impressive English.

Subscribe to our channel if you want more cool content, and if you want to get out of Intermediate "ok" English, and take your English to the next level. Be Fluent For Real!

I was pretty much petrified in all of these moments, but there is a greater lesson to learn from situations like that! And throughout the video, I share what I learned from those harsh situations, too. Check the video out and be ready for some laughs!

Hey, you guys!

This week's live was about a common struggle for a lot of Brazilian learners: the pronunciation of the final "ed" sound of verbs and adjectives in English.

We talk about the rules for the "ed", what we believe people TRY to do when they are pronouncing it, and some exceptions to the rule.

Also, there is a lot of practice throughout the podcast, plus an exercise (below), which I explain in it:

An Old Man Lived in the Village

Short Moral Stories - An Old Man

An old man lived in the village. He was one of the most unfortunate people in the world. The whole village was tired of him; he was always gloomy, he constantly complained and was always in a bad mood.

The longer he lived, the more bile he was becoming and the more poisonous were his words. People avoided him, because his misfortune became contagious. It was even unnatural and insulting to be happy next to him.

He created the feeling of unhappiness in others.

But one day, when he turned eighty years old, an incredible thing happened. Instantly everyone started hearing the rumor:

“An Old Man is happy today, he doesn’t complain about anything, smiles, and even his face is freshened up.”

The whole village gathered together. The old man was asked:

Villager: What happened to you?

“Nothing special. Eighty years I’ve been chasing happiness, and it was useless. And then I decided to live without happiness and just enjoy life. That’s why I’m happy now.” – An Old Man
