Geez, I've been in New York for all this time and I still haven't learned English!
I think I'll find a YouTube channel to learn from.
Mr. Teacher Paulo, Tim Explains, Ask Jackie, the other Paulo, Mairo Vergara,
"Bombing in English" with João do Litoral? Never heard of it!
Ah! It's a new channel, it debuted today. I'm going to watch.
Good evening, and welcome to my channel.
If you want to rock some English,
you've come to the right place.
But before we go on, who am I?
My name is João do Litoral,
but in the United States, you call me Literal John.
For as long as I can remember,
I dreamed of learning English.
But without money for school, I memorized the dictionary,
from beginning to end.
But it was too difficult.
But now, with YouTube, learning English doesn't have.
to be that hard.
With me, you'll conquer English. We're in this together!
For CORRECT English, turn on the subtitles (which you've already done).
Hey my dear friends, hello there!
To excel in English, you need to follow
three simple rules.
Only three!
Can you believe that?
1) Translate word for word.
2) Depend on the dictionary.
When in doubt, guess.
It's as easy as putting on your socks.
And your age doesn't matter.
As Americans say, better late than never.
Better...late...than...never.
It works! I'm rocking this English!
Listen carefully. If you're having a snack,
put down your chicken fritter,
peanut brittle, or coconut custard.
And now, let's do it!
Today's theme is: phrasal verbs.
Some Brazilian YouTubers think phrasal verbs are hard.
Imagine your American friends say:
What is "hang out"?
Of course we need to translate both words.
If you already know the words, it's a piece of cake.
If not, look them up in the dictionary.
It's two times the work, but as they say,
It's worth it.
Put them together and you get...
to hang + outside
So when an American says "let's hang out,"
he wants to spend time with you.
What the heck? Tell him to get real.
Number 2, "hold back".
Hold is...back is...
So hold back must mean:
Hold onto someone's back!
Easy! This method works.
One more: to make up.
OK, I already know "make".
Now let's look up "up" in the dictionary.
Wow, there are so many meanings.
When this happens, time for rule #3: guess.
"Erect"
"To make erect"???
Oh no! We can't talk about getting it on here.
This is a channel aimed at families.
Did you learn a lot today? Great!
You did a great job.
Subscribe to the channel,
and if you have any doubts about the English language,
write me in the comments.
Or of you want to criticize, it's no problem.
You can even use curse words.
I can take it.
Hugs for everyone, come back soon!
As Americans say, "better late than never."
Want me to read that one more time?
Yeah, that's fine.
Oh no, we cannot talk about getting it on here!
This is a...sorry.
This is a ridiculous thing.
