〈#9〉止められないもの？

Agora que você já está craque em utilizar o pronome Te, vamos ao Lhe! O pronome “lhe” é usado para substituir o complemento de um verbo indireto, ou seja, um verbo que exige a preposição (a, para ) como antecedente na terceira pessoa do singular, seja ela qual for: Ele, Ela ou Você. Exemplo: Paguei a José. Quem paga, paga alguma coisa A alguém: Paguei-lhe Paguei a Bruna. Paguei-lhe Exatamente igual, não importa se o final da frase, se o complemento for masculino ou feminino. O pronome lhe serve para os dois gêneros! Mais exemplos: Eu dei um conselho para você. Querendo substituir “para você”. Eu lhe dei um conselho Nós pedimos uma ajuda a ele. Substituindo “a ele”. Nós lhe pedimos uma ajuda. Eles prometeram os céus a ela. Substituiremos “a ela”. Eles lhe prometeram os céus! É possível pluralizar: Paguei aos meus amigos. Paguei-lhes Uma pausinha para explicar a Pronúncia do Lhe: O som de L e H pronunciados juntos, nós chamamos de dígrafo - quando uma palavra tem consoantes que perdem o som próprio, formando, assim, um único som.

James looked over his shoulder. He saw something running toward him very fast. His heart started beating rapidly. He thought it was a person, but when he turned to face them, he realized that it wasn’t a person. It was a large black dog. The dog was getting closer and closer, but it wasn’t barking at him. In fact, the dog looked happy. Then he saw why the dog was running. There was a tennis ball bouncing and rolling toward him and the dog was chasing it.

James looked up and saw a woman about one hundred yards away from him. She was short and blonde. The dog grabbed the ball with his mouth and started running back toward her.

“Good boy!” she said.

“That’s a beautiful dog you have,” James said to her.

“Thanks! Actually, he’s not my dog. I’m just watching him for a friend this weekend.” she replied.

“Oh, I see,” said James. “Well, how did your friend get you to dog-sit for them?” James asked.

“That’s actually along story,” she answered with a smile.

James liked her smile and he had time to spare. He walked casually toward her and the dog. 

“I’ve got time. What’s the story?” James asked. “My name’s James, by the way.”

“Jennifer. Nice to meet you. Well, it actually started a few months ago when I was hanging out with my friend…” she said.

Well, that’s the end of the story for this episode. Tune in to the next episode to hear more about what happens with Jennifer and James. Be sure to write down any new vocabulary and listen again to improve your comprehension. See you next time!

چون عهده نمی شود کسی فردا را، حالی خوش دار این دل پر شیدا را
مِی نوش به ماهتاب ای ماه که ماه، بسیار بتابد و نیابد ما را

Yon rising Moon that looks for us again--
How oft hereafter will she wax and wane;
How oft hereafter rising look for us
Through this same Garden--and for one in vain!

Persian Poetry

Khayyam - چون عهده نمی شود کسی فردا را
