Introduction

Did you know?

Did you know that the pronoun 'you' in English works for both singular and plural? This can be tricky for learners, but it makes the language more straightforward in daily use. Also, English doesn't differentiate formality in the second person like Portuguese does with 'você' and 'senhor(a)'.

Kick off the lesson by telling students that, similar to Portuguese, personal pronouns are key for communication in English. They replace names and help avoid repetition, which makes both speaking and writing smoother. Use examples in Portuguese, such as 'I', 'he', 'she', 'we', 'you', and 'they', to link to the material being presented in the lesson.
