Hey Friend,

Nick here, Powtoon’s Head of Content.

I was racking my brain to find the right words to show off our customers’ video successes. Then it hit me: Duh! Why not just ask the people who bring awesomeness to life with Powtoon every day?

So I embarked on a quest to meet real Powtoon tribe members, who told me why they love using Powtoon so much in their companies (and how they achieve real results with Powtoon all the time).

What they said made my day — and it’ll make yours too... Click here to see for yourself!

Stay awesome,

Nick

Possibility

I’m a very indecisive person and today I’m going to teach you how to express possibility in English ☺

Let’s start with the modal verbs “may” and “might”.

The modal verb “may” indicates possibility.

For example,

I may have pizza for dinner tonight.
Pode ser que jante pizza esta noite.

It may rain this weekend.
Pode ser que chova neste fim de semana.

Here you can use the modal verb “might” instead of “may” and say:

I might have pizza for dinner tonight.

It might rain this weekend.

Here “may” is slightly more formal than “might”.
Nestas frases, "may" é um pouco mais formal que "might".

We sometimes use the adverbs “maybe” and “perhaps” to express possibility. “Perhaps” is more formal than “maybe”.

When referring to possible future events like the ones in the examples above, we use these adverbs followed by the future with “will”.
Quando falamos de possíveis eventos futuros como os exemplos acima, estes advérbios são seguidos pelo futuro com "will".

Look…

Perhaps I will have pizza for dinner tonight.
or
Maybe I will have pizza for dinner tonight.
Talvez jantarei pizza esta noite.

Perhaps it will rain this weekend.
or
Maybe it will rain this weekend.
Talvez chova neste fim de semana.

Hopefully it won’t rain this weekend!
Espero que não chova neste fim de semana!

Now, watch the ABA Film 49 and see how Andrew helps Emily learn the modal verbs!

Put your headset on!

Have a lovely weekend.

Best wishes,

Priscilla

Vocabulary

Hello!

How’s it going?

Today I want you to read a short text about music and the seasons to practice your reading skills. You can find definitions of the words in bold under the text.

There’s always a song suited to every season. When it’s summer or spring, we normally listen to upbeat happy songs. When it’s autumn or winter, we normally listen to calm relaxing music.

Whatever the season, we like to listen to nice catchy songs because they change our mood. No matter how bad, lonely or hard times are, music seems to do magic and helps us think and feel that at the end of the day, there’s always something good we need to be thankful for.

Vocabulary

suited: apropriado para

For example: I think the other applicant is better suited to the job.
Acho que o outro candidato é mais apto para este trabalho.

season: estação (do ano)

For example: My favourite season is summer.
Minha estação preferida é o verão.

summer: verão

For example: We always go to the beach in the summer.
Sempre vamos à praia no verão.

spring: primavera

For example: In spring, the flowers start to bloom.
Em primavera, as flores começam a florir.

autumn: outono

For example: Leaves change colour in autumn.
No outono as folhas mudam de cor.

winter: inverno

For example: Winter is my worst season. I hate the cold!
O inverno é a pior estação.. Odeio o frio!

upbeat: alegre, otimista

For example: She looked upbeat even though she was tired.
Ela tinha um ar alegre, embora estivesse cansada.

catchy: cativante

For example: Lady Gaga’s songs are always catchy.
As músicas de Lady Gaga sempre são contagiantes.

mood: humor

For example: He’s always in a bad mood on Monday mornings.
Ele sempre está de mal humor todas as segundas-feiras de manhã.

to seem: parecer

For example: You seem happy today.
Você parece feliz hoje.

And one of the best ways to learn is to practice, right? So I’m inviting you to practice a little English with the following exercise:

Responda agora!

I hope you’re upbeat about studying English today whatever the season is where you are.

Have a great day!

Best regards,

Priscilla

Spelling Mistakes

Hello!

How r u?

Seu progresso:

In today’s modern world, there are many ways to communicate with our family and friends using modern technology, for example, different applications on our mobile phones. One means of communication is sending an SMS (short messaging service), also known as “a text message”. Often, when we send text messages, we tend to abbreviate words and don’t pay much attention to spelling.
No mundo moderno, existem muitas maneiras de se comunicar com a família e os amigos com tecnologia moderna, por exemplo, com vários aplicativos móveis. Uma forma são os SMS, também conhecidos como "mensagens de texto". Muitas vezes, na hora de mandar SMS, abreviamos as palavras e não prestamos atenção à ortografia.

In the first part of this message, you read the question “How r u?” That’s normally how we send someone a text message to ask them “How are you?” (Como vai?)

However, in formal and proper English, spelling is very important (which is why we have writing exercises in the ABA course).

If you miss out a letter, it can make a huge difference to the meaning of a word.
Se você omitir uma letra por engano, pode afetar muito o significado.

Look at the following words:

SEEM They don’t seem very friendly. Não parecem muito simpáticos.	SEE I can’t see you. Não te vejo.
WINE I would like to order a bottle of red wine, please. Gostaria de pedir uma garrafa de vinho tinto.	WIN They need to win the match to make it to the final. Eles precisam ganhar o jogo para chegar à final.
BARE He has just moved into his new flat and it’s still bare. Ele acaba de mudar de casa e seu novo apartamento continua vazio.	BAR After work, she sometimes goes to a bar. Depois do trabalho, ela vai às vezes a um bar.
HUGE We were very hungry so we ate a huge portion of cake. Estávamos com muita fome, por isso comemos um enorme pedaço de torta.	HUG When you’re sad, you need a hug from your best friend. Quando um está triste, precisa de um abraço de seu melhor amigo(a).
TEEN She met her husband when she was a teen. Ela conheceu seu marido quando era adolescente.	TEN They’ve been married for ten years now. Estão casados há dez anos.

To make yourself clearly understood in English, make sure you spell words correctly and that you don’t miss out letters.

Have a good day!

Best regards,

Priscilla
