REVIEW YOUR ABC
* Las consonantes que en español tienen "una consonante seguida de la E", cambian en inglés la E por una I
Spanish -----------------English
bE ------------------------bI ------------------- b, c, d,e, g, p, t, v
* Las consonantes que en español tienen "una E + una consonante + una E", en inglés simplemente no pronuncies la última E.
Spanish -----------------English
EmE ---------------------Em ------------------- f, l, m, n, s, x
Spanish -----------------English
EmE ---------------------Em ------------------- f, l, m, n, s, x
Otras consonantes se pueden agrupar por sonidos parecidos:
/ei/ ---- a, h, j, k
/ju:/---- q, u, w
/ai/---- i, y
OTRAS: o, r, z
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Otra sugerencia para aprender las letras es usando acrónimos que casi con toda seguridad hemos usado o hemos oído mientras hablamos en español. Lo bueno sería que cada uno hiciera su propia tabla porque le ayudaría mejor a retenerlo, pero por sugerir algo, ahí va.
Alguna vez hemos oído hablar del grupo ACDC (ei si di si), o del pinchadiscos DJ (di yei), o hemos dicho alguna vez OK (ou kei), o has bailado la canción YMCA (uai em si ai), o te has comido un emanem (M&M)
Además, no tienes que aprender las letras en orden, sino que aprendes grupos, por lo que no tienes que recorrer todo al alfabeto para llegar a la letra que quieres recordar, sino que dices su palabra relacionada y listo

Passives
When to use the passive
Then add the past participle of the verb. For example "gave" – "was GIVEN".

To change the focus of a sentence.
In the passive sentence above, we can make the object and action ('me' and 'gave a prescription') more important than the subject ('the doctor').
In the passive sentence above, we can make the object and action ('me' and 'gave a prescription') more important than the subject ('the doctor').
If we don't know who does an action.
"My bicycle has been stolen" – I don't know who has stolen it.
"My bicycle has been stolen" – I don't know who has stolen it.
If we don't want to say who did something.
"The lights were left on all night." (I don't want to say that you left the lights on.)
"The lights were left on all night." (I don't want to say that you left the lights on.)
If it is obvious who does something.
"I was given a prescription" – I know that only doctors give prescriptions, so I don't need to add "by the doctor".
"He was arrested" I know that the police arrest people, so I don't need to add "by the police".
"I was given a prescription" – I know that only doctors give prescriptions, so I don't need to add "by the doctor".
"He was arrested" I know that the police arrest people, so I don't need to add "by the police".
Forming a passive sentence in English
Firstly, you need to make the object into the new subject.
me –> I
you –> You
him / her –> He / She
us –> We
them –> They
me –> I
you –> You
him / her –> He / She
us –> We
them –> They
Then you make the verb passive.
Put the verb "to be" into the same tense as the verb in the active subject. For example "gave" is the past simple tense. The past simple form of "to be" is "was" or "were".
Present simple –> is /are
Present continuous –> is / are being
Present perfect –> has/have been
Past Simple -> was / were
Past continuous – was / were being
Modals will, can etc – will be, can be etc.

Para Todos La 2 - Debate: La vida Privada
Para Todos La 2 - Debate: La vida Privada
La vida privada es aquel territorio donde se desarrolla nuestra intimidad. Lo que hagamos en ella debería quedar protegido de aquellos a los que consideramos extraños. En los últimos tiempos, el concepto de privacidad se ha redefinido a causa de los avances tecnológicos. Coloquio entre Francesc Torralba, filósofo y profesor de Ética de la Universidad Ramon Llull; y Javier Cuchi, de la Asociación de Internautas.

Bob Dylan - Blowing in the wind

KARAOKE
.
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand
How many times must the cannonballs fly
Before they are forever banned.
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
How many years can a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea
How many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free
How many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn't see
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky
How many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry
How many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind

Betty / Botter / bought a / bit of / butter
But the / butter / was / bitter
So she / bought a / better / butter
And she / made the / butter / better
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betty_Botter
"Betty Botter" has some variations, but most are very similar. A common one is:
Betty Botter bought a bit of butter,
"But," she said, "the butter's bitter;
If I put it in my batter,
It will make my batter bitter;
But a bit of better butter,
That would make my batter better."
So she bought a bit of better butter,
Better than her bitter butter,
And she put it in her bitter batter,
And the batter was not bitter;
So 'twas better Betty Botter
Bought a bit of better butter.
But the / butter / was / bitter
So she / bought a / better / butter
And she / made the / butter / better
