UNIT 18

I´m hungry

 

Hunger (jonger) = Hambre

Hungry (jongri) = Hambriento

 

En Español decimos ¨Yo tengo hambre¨. Y al principio, usando la estructura del idioma Español, los estudiantes lo dicen mal, así: ¨I have hungry¨

Luego aprenden que en Inglés se dice ¨Yo estoy hambriento¨ = ¨I´m hungry¨

En general, en Inglés no se tiene, se es. Por ejemplo, en Inglés yo no tengo sed, sueño, calor, frío, cansancio, miedo…

En Inglés yo estoy sediento, yo estoy soñoliento, yo estoy caliente, yo estoy frío, yo estoy cansado, yo estoy aterrado…

I am thirsty, I´m sleepy, I´m hot, I´m cold, I´m tired, I´m scarred

 

I eat = I have = I take : Cuando se habla de comer, estos tres significan lo mismo

I eat meatball for dinner

I have meatball for dinner

I take meatball for dinner

 

SOME (+)  AND  ANY (-) (?)

SOME (+) se utiliza para oraciones afirmativas        : I have some cherries

ANY (-) se utiliza para oraciones negativas                 : I don´t  have any cherries

ANY (?) se utiliza para preguntas                                : Do you  have any cherries ?
