Batch 34 — Infinitive & Auxiliary Verb

New Words

Infinitive

Auxiliary verb

do (verb)

Dois conceitos gramaticais que você já usa intuitivamente agora recebem seus nomes formais.

📖 Infinitivo — o verbo com 'to'

Verbs in the infinitive generally have the word 'to' in front of them.
to do · to come · to go · to take · to speak · to read · to write...

Você já usou infinitivos em muitas estruturas:

'I like TO LEARN English.'

Infinitivo como complemento de verbo

'It is difficult FOR ME TO SPEAK Chinese.'

Infinitivo com sujeito explícito

'I can't TOUCH the ceiling.'

Depois de 'can', o 'to' é omitido

📖 Verbo Auxiliar — o verbo de suporte

An auxiliary verb is PART of the verb in a sentence, but it does NOT tell us the action.

'We ARE speaking.'

'speaking' = ação · 'are' = auxiliar

'He CAN read.'

'read' = ação · 'can' = auxiliar

'DO you speak?'

'speak' = ação · 'do' = auxiliar

📖 'Do' — dois papéis distintos

'Do' como AUXILIAR

Sem significado próprio — apenas constrói a frase.

Do you speak English?

I do not have a bag.

'Do' como VERBO PLENO

Significa 'fazer'.

What do I DO after the lesson?

What do you DO before the lesson?
