A Shepherd's pie é uma torta típica da Irlanda. Para fazê-la, basta refogar a carne na manteiga com a cebola, sal, pimenta, caldo de carne e outros temperos a gosto. Depois, misture com os legumes.
Quando a carne estiver pronta, coloque em uma travessa e cubra com o purê de batatas.
O "Independence Day" (Dia da Independência) ou "Fourth of July" (4 de julho) é um dos feriados mais importantes dos Estados Unidos. Foi esse o dia em que os Estados Unidos decretou sua independência da Inglaterra em 1776.
Para celebrar o 4 de julho, os americanos costumam fazer churrasco, soltar fogos e cantar músicas patrióticas.
Conheça um pouco mais desta história cantando o hino nacional americano.
The Star Spangled Banner Oh, say! can you see by the dawn’s early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last leaming; Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight, O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there: Oh, say! does that star-spangled banner yet wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep, Where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam, In fully glory reflected now shines in the stream: ‘Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh, long may it wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion A home and a country should leave us no more? Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps’ pollution! No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave: And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Oh, thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand Between their loved home and the war’s desolation! Blest with victory and peace, may the heav’n-rescued land Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation! Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto: “In God is our trust”: And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave. ___________________________________ Vocabulary The Star Spangled Banner - A Bandeira Estrelada What so proudly - O que tão orgulhosamente The bombs - As bombas Bursting in air - Explodindo no ar Breeze - Brisa In fully glory - Em plena glória No refuge - Nenhum refúgio Rescued land - Paraíso-resgatado Praise the Power - Louve o Poder Then conquer - Então conquiste Battle’s confusion - Confusão da batalha From the terror - Do terror The home of the brave - O lar dos bravos Ramparts- Muralhas Freemen - Homens livres Blest with victory - Bendito com vitória And this be our motto - E este é nosso lema

Hoje vamos dar algumas dicas de como assinar ou finalizar e-mails em inglês.
Cartas e e-mails formais
Warmest regards: Se você quiser ser um pouco mais amigável. Thank you for (blablabla) + Warmest regards: Quando sua intenção é pedir para seu cliente fazer ou deixar de fazer algo (na maioria dos casos algo chato ,tal qual, responder a uma survey de qualidade de serviço prestado, por exemplo) ou ainda quando você quer vender algo. We appreciate your patience: Quando você não tem certeza de quanto tempo vai levar para resolver o assunto em questão. We appreciate your business: Simplesmente puxando o saco do cliente :D
Cartas, e-mails ou cartões informais
No caso de emails e cartas informais – eu adicionaria e-cards (cartões eletrônicos) e greetings cards (cartões) aqui também – alguns fechos comuns são:
XOXO (para amigos, namorados etc). Obs.: XOXO quer dizer “abraços e beijos” Love (para familiares, namorados e etc) Your friend (para amigos ou conhecidos) Keep in touch (para amigos) Take care (para amigos) Thank you for…. (para qualquer um, desde que o objetivo seja agradecer por algo)
Assinaturas em cartões para os feriados
Happy Holidays: Usado para comemorações de fim de ano que incluem tudo – Thanksgiving,Christmas, Hanukkah (feriado hebraico) e etc. Use esse se você não sabe qual a religião do destinatário ou como ele celebra esses feriados. Merry Christmas: Para quem comemora o Natal. Happy Easter: Para quem comemora a Páscoa. Enjoy your vacation / honeymoon, etc: Para essas ocasiões.
Oi pessoal, este vídeo é de uma aluna minha que está participando de um programa para ser Au Pair nos EUA, e por isso está tendo aulas particulares na Inglês S/A com foco neste objetivo.
Participar de um programa destes não é nada fácil, é preciso estar preparada para cada etapa:
Entrevista com a agência
Entrevista online com os pais
Retirada de passaporte e visto americano
Preenchimento de diversos formulários e requerimentos
Criação do vídeo...
Ufa...
São muitos detalhes, mas é um sacrifício que vale a pena não só para aprimorar o conhecimento do idioma inglês, mas também para conhecer novas culturas.
Let me know if you also need this kind of help.
