Errores Comunes en Inglés Cuando un alumno mio principiante tiene un error, la gran mayoría de las veces es un error que resulta normal para su nivel ya que si tiene alguna falta es porque todavía no tiene un nivel lo bastante avanzado para saber algo en concreto. Sin embargo, también suele ocurrir que un alumno tenga errores bastante arraigados que debería poder corregir por sí mismo,

Does John studies something new every month? 17. What your sister looks like? 18. Entered the room three men with her. 19. Did they cried when she left? 20. Last year I went on a travel with my family to Costa Rica. Respuestas y explicaciones:
1. Do you like to go to the cinema or do you prefer the theatre? Se necesita el verbo auxiliar "DO" en las oraciones interrogativas y en las negativas. 2. Who ate my lunch? Cuando la palabra (who) funciona también como sujeto de la oración, no se necesita el auxilar "DO" . 3. My best friend is an architect. Hay que poner un artículo indefinido antes de las profesiones o cuando se habla de lo que es alguien, ej: a student, a teacher, a doctor, an engineer, etc... 4. I can't help you right now because I am taking a shower. Se debe utilizar el presente continuo cuando se habla de lo que uno está en proceso de hacer en este momento. 5. We have a meeting on Friday. No se utiliza el artículo definido antes de los días de la semana a menos que no se esté hablando sobre un día en particular, ej: "We have a dinner on the Friday before the wedding." 6. Last week, I saw three movies. Tampoco se pone el artículo definido antes de expresiones como: "last week, month, year," etc., "this week, month, year, Wednesday," etc., o "next week, year, thursday," etc.
7. I'm going to Paris to learn French. Los hispanoblantes a menudo dicen " for to" ya que traducen directamente de "para + infinitivo." En inglés, solamente se pone el infinitivo. Nunca se utiliza "for to" junto. 8. Are you going to have dinner with us tonight? Esto es una pregunta. El verbo auxiliar debe estar antes del sujecto. 9. He went to the park yesterday with his family. Pasado simple irregular. 10. I need to go to the store because we haven't got anything to eat. (o - ...we have nothing to eat ) No se pueden poner dos negativos en la misma oración esto se llama un "double negative." 11. We live very near the museum, so we go there often. "Near of" no existe en inglés y es una traducción directa de "cerca de". Se puede decir: "near the museum" o "close to the museum" . 12. This exercise is easier than the last one. Se añade el sufijo "-er" a adjetivos comparativos con una sola sílaba. También se añade el sufijo "-er" a adjetivos comparativos con dos sílabas que acaban en "y". A adjetivos comparativos con 2 ó más sílabas se les añade la palabra "more," ej.: "more interesting, more beautiful," etc. 13. Tell me the truth! "Say to me" o "Tell me" – La persona que recibe la acción con "say" es un objeto indirecto y con "tell" es un objeto directo. 14. This year I went to Niagara Falls and it was impressive (incredible, fantastic... )! "Impressionant" no existe en inglés! 15. Life is beautiful! Esta oración habla sobre "life" en general, no mi vida, tu vida o la vida de alguien en particular." Cuando hablamos sobre ideas en general "love is blind" (el amor es ciego), "war is not good for anything" (la guerra no sirve para nada), "hope is all we have left" (la esperanza es todo lo que nos queda), "people are strange" (la gente es rara), etc. – no se utiliza el artículo definido. 16. Does John study something new every month? Cuando la oración tiene un verbo auxiliar, no se conjuga el verbo principal de la oración. 17. What does your sister look like? Esta oración requiere el verbo auxiliar "DO" porque es una pregunta. Tienes que cambiar "look" para hacerlo infinitivo otra vez. (ver número 16) 18. Three men entered the room with her. El sujeto siempre debe estar al principio en una oración afirmativa, ¡no el verbo! 19. Did they cry when she left? Otra vez, el verbo auxiliar cambia de tiempo verbal, no el verbo principal. En este caso "Did" está en pasado y establece el tiempo verbal, así que "cried" debe estar en infinitivo. 20. Last year I went on a trip with my family to Costa Rica. "Trip" es el nombre, "travel" es el verbo. "Travel" se utiliza como nombre, normalmente, solo en la forma plural, como por ejemplo cuando se habla de los "journeys" o "trips" de alguien en general. Ej.: "Gulliver’s Travels" .

MP3 Bitter Old Lady From
Pasadena
Clases Particulares de You’ll come back… to The Vagabond! I pull the magazine from the seat Inglés pocket, by chance it is folded to the page. There is nothing familiar in the William Christison ad, except, perhaps, the lobby. I lower the tray, take my coffee and gaze Profesora de Inglés out into the stratosphere. It is September 1974. Old Mr and Mrs Davis, the Victoria Fontana consummate skinflints, are hunched over the desk. Not a car under the Clases de Inglés canopy escapes their eyes. East Colorado Boulevard is just going to hell. Paul Kelly Towels are bad enough, but the loss of a TV really frosts them, thrown as it Inglés en Empresas was through the bathroom window of number 26. Despite my long hair, they David Overton give me the job. Maintenance. Changing bulbs, cleaning the pool, flipping Profesor Particular mattresses. Probably afraid the next guy through the door will be darker than Karen Hess me. I began just after the resignation, or was it the pardon? “Nixon’s a crook, but McGovern . . .,” the Mister says one day to a pair of Profesor de Inglés en Madrid Centro Legionnaires. Nods, winks. Kelley Pigott
Maid carts converge outside the laundry room at break time. Maly, from Cambodia, rushes down the walk, broom handles slapping palmettos, on her heels, Margot the Dutch maid pinch-browed and puffing. Virginia follows, nonchalantly, her full dusky cleavage always a welcome sight from the balcony. She doesn’t speak a word of English, unlike young Lourdes, a doll herself, who insists on teaching her. Virginia reads from the back of a laundry list, “I need more shit, pleases”. Lourdes howls and Rose, phone cradled to ear, waves her clipboard and shushes them. Mrs Davis wants a second face cloth count. “We’re two short. Yes, that’s right,” she tells her, eyes rolling. Rose is the head maid. She has the face of a Quaker and a heart of gold. “Life is too short,” she says under her breath as she hangs up. The year before, she watched her twin sister waste away with cancer, now Rose belonged to the Hemlock Society. The walls of the little room are lined to the ceiling with stacks of toilet paper, plastic cups, and sacks of used courtesy soaps the Davis’s are saving; in the back, a percolator bubbles and the air is sweet with the scent of glycerine and freshly brewed coffee. An old woman in a starched white uniform leans forward on a stool. When she strikes a match from the corner where she sits, the flare illuminates the flinty eyes and stern mouth of someone whom, over the decades, I’d nearly, but not completely forgotten. With her long grey hair pinned loosely into a bun and the black sweater draped shawl-like over her shoulders, she might be lighting up a lamp on Gunsmoke, instead of a Camel. Agnes Darkens. She stares past the girls now, her head cocked to an old transistor crackling on the counter behind her. Ali KOs Foreman in Kinshasa. 3 die in Compton blaze. Rival youth gangs clash for a second night. Traffic update in 5. She smirks, then snorts, smoke pouring through her nostrils. A few feet

away by the door, Loretta, a light-skinned black from Altadena, peels an orange. The rind snakes down onto a swollen belly her white pantsuit can no longer hide. A guest passes by on the walk and grins. “That’s good for you, now.” Loretta chuckles, “Yeah, I know, I know.” When Loretta arrives late these days, Agnes clicks her tongue. Later, when a man with two small girls in a beat-up Roadrunner picks Loretta up after work, she clicks it again. “You sound like the tomato bugs in my garden,” Rose teases and, for a second, the old woman glimmers a smile. Loretta skips work a few days and soon stops coming altogether. A week passes, a new maid is hired, then, when Rose hears Loretta has been in hospital, she’s back the next day with a get well card. Mrs. Davis told me Loretta’s brother is coming to pick up her check, she says, we’ll slip this in with it. The card is passed from one to another, Lourdes dictates a few words to her friend, Maly Ultimas Actividades scribbles something, Margot sighs then hands it to Agnes who, looking up, waves it away with a click of her tongue. “What on earth would I write,” she Actividades Vocabulario de Inglés growls, “thanks for having another jig?” Gramática
Loretta never came back. A couple of days after that we got word both she and the infant had died and for the remainder of my employ, until just after Christmas, around the time Virginia got deported, Rose and Agnes never exchanged a word. Copyright 2008 by William A. Christison
