Como praticar com frases curtas
Uma frase curta deixa você se concentrar em poucos sons. Ouça sem olhar o texto, escreva e preste atenção principalmente ao que mais se perde: artigos, preposições e finais de palavra. Depois de conferir, ouça de novo e repita em voz alta.
Cada grupo de frases vem de um ditado do seu nível. Aqui você ouve as frases; no ditado completo, escreve cada uma e vê a correção palavra por palavra.
Por qual nível começo?
Pelo nível em que você escreve a maior parte de cada frase depois de ouvi-la duas ou três vezes. Na dúvida, faça o teste de nível grátis de cinco minutos.
As frases têm tradução?
Não: a ideia é treinar o ouvido direto em inglês. Se uma palavra for nova, procure no dicionário depois de tentar escrever a frase.
Frases ou histórias?
As frases servem para treinar sons específicos; as histórias, para entender em contexto e manter a atenção. O ideal é alternar.
