Verb to be

r

Verb to Be - 'Ser' ou 'Estar'AfirmativaI am beautiful --> Eu sou bonito / eu estou bonito They are happy --> Eles são felizes / eles estão felizesPara profissões utilizamos o 'to be' com a tradução de ser:He is a policeman - ele é um policialShe is a doctor - ela é uma médicaWe are students - nós somos estudantesNegativaPara negar, precisamos colocar o 'not' na frente, ou também podemos abreviar.I am not beautiful They are not happy / They aren't happyHe is not a policeman / He isn't a policemanInterrogativaPor fim, para fazer perguntas, nós sempre vamos precisar inverter o verbo com o sujeito. Am I beautiful?Are they happy?Is he a policeman?Cuidado >> no inglês nós não fazemos perguntas na negativa!Aren't they happy? (incorreto)
