TEMA 3: 3.1 El Imperativo: Las oraciones imperativas, en inglés, son las únicas en las que no escribimos el sujeto. Diferenciamos entre: - Órdenes: Open that door, please. (Abre esa puerta, por favor). En las órdenes se empieza directamente con el verbo. - Prohibiciones: Don t open that door, please. (No abras esa puerta por favor). En las prohibiciones usaremos primero el auxiliar don t seguido del verbo. Podemos emplear la palabra please. - Sugerencias: Let s open that door. (Abramos esa puerta). Cuando hacemos sugerencias la primera palabra es let s, indicando que se incluye la persona que habla (Let s = let us). 3.2 - Los números ordinales: Esta es la lista de los números ordinales. Cuando queramos escribirlos con cifras, escribiremos el dígito acompañado de las últimas dos letras de la palabra escrita. First 1st primeiro, 1º Second 2nd segundo, 2º Third 3rd terceiro, 3º Fourth 4th cuarto, 4º Fifth 5th quinto, 5º Sixth 6th sexto, 6º Seventh 7th sétimo, 7º Eighth 8th oitavo, 8º Ninth 9th noveno, 9º Tenth 10th décimo, 10º Eleventh 11th décimo primeiro, 11º Twelfth 12th Thirteenth 13th décimo segundo,12º décimo terceiro,13º Fourteenth 14th décimo cuarto, 14º Fifteenth 15th décimo quinto, 15º Sixteenth 16th décimo sexto, 16º Seventeenth 17th décimo sétimo, 17º 2

Eighteenth 18th décimo oitavo, 18º Nineteenth 19th décimo noveno, 19º Fíjese en que las decenas (20º, 30º, 40º, 50º...) acaban todas en tieth. Twentieth 20th Thirtieth 30th Fortieth 40th Fiftieth 50th Sixtieth 60th Seventieth 70th Eightieth 80th Ninetieth 90th 3.3 - Escribir la fecha Hay dos maneras de escribir y decir las fechas en inglés. Fíjese porque hay bastante diferencia con respecto al procedimiento que seguimos en gallego o en castellano. Se Escribe Se dice 1 May 2011 The first of May, two thousand and eleven 1st May 2011-01/05/2011 May the first, two thousand and eleven Cuando escribimos la fecha, los números del día pueden llevar o no las últimas letras del número ordinal. Cuando la decimos hablando, siempre utilizaremos el número ordinal para decir el día. Los meses tienen que escribirse en mayúscula. Hasta el año 2000 los años se dicen agrupando las cifras de dos en dos: 1990- nineteen ninety. A partir del año 2000 lo más común es: 2020-two thousand and twenty. 3.4 - El presente simple en la forma interrogativa En la unidad anterior vimos la formación del presente simple negativo: I work (afirmativo) I don t work (negativo). Para construir el presente simple en la forma interrogativa utilizamos también el auxiliar Do para todas las personas, excepto la tercera persona de singular, en la que utilizamos Does. Fíjese que al utilizar el auxiliar Does el verbo ya no lleva añadido s como en la forma afirmativa. Affirmative Negative Interrogative I work I don t work Do I work? You work You don t work Do you work? He works He doesn t work Does he work? She works She doesn t work Does she work? It works It Doesn t work Does it work? We work We don t work Do we work? You work You don t work Do you work? 3

They work They don t work Do they work? El orden de la oración interrogativa: Auxiliar + sujeto + verbo + complementos +? Recuerde que el signo interrogativo se coloca solo al final de la oración. Ejemplos: Do your parents work in this city? Trabajan tus padres en esta ciudad? Does Peter work in London? Trabaja Peter en Londres? En caso de haber una palabra interrogativa: What/where/how... auxiliar + suxeito + verbo + complementos +? Este tipo de oraciones se llama en inglés Wh questions Ejemplo: Where do you live? Dónde vives? Cuando utilizamos adverbios de frecuencia los colocaremos justo antes del verbo, no del auxiliar. Recuerde que en los casos del verbo To be y Have got la interrogativa no se hace con el auxiliar do sino que hacemos una inversión del sujeto y el verbo: How old are you? - Cuántos años tienes? Where is the hotel? - Dónde está el hotel? What have you got in your handbag? - Qué tienes en el bolso? Los pronombres y algunas expresiones interrogativas son los siguientes Who? Quién? When? Cuándo? What? Qué? / Cal? Why? Por qué? Where? Dónde? Whose? De quién? How? Cómo? What time? A qué hora? How often? Con qué frecuencia? Which? Cuál? Ejemplos: Do they always work on Saturdays? Trabajan siempre los sábados? Does your mother usually drive? Conduce normalmente tu madre? Where do you often travel in summer? A dónde sueles viajar en verano? 3.5 - There is / there are Para expresar la idea de que hay o existe algo, utilizamos las expresiones there is (singular) there are (plural). Singular - Positive (afirmativa) There is a lake (hay un lago ). - Negative (negativa) There isn t a park (no hay un parque). - Questions (preguntas) Is there a hotel? ( Hay un hotel?). - Short answers (respuestas cortas) Yes, there is /No, there isn t.(si / No). Plural - Positive (afirmativa) There are three children. (Hay tres niños). - Negative (negativa) There aren t two books. (No hay dos libros). - Questions (preguntas) Are there two books? ( Hay dos libros?). - Short answers (respuestas cortas) Yes, there are./no, there aren t (Si / No). 4
