aprendemos que, em inglês, o mais comum a se dizer é “quench my thirst”. • Não diga “a big pleasure”; diga “a great pleasure” Um famoso apresentador da Rede Globo, ao se despedir de uma banda americana que se apresentara em seu programa, disse: “It was a big pleasure to have you here” (foi um grande prazer recebê-los aqui). Claro que dá para entender o que ele quis dizer; no entanto, em inglês “big pleasure” soa estranho, e o melhor e mais natural a se dizer é “great pleasure”. •…

bedroom went out there was a stirring and a fluttering all through the farm buildings. Word had gone round during the day that old Major, the prize Middle White boar, had had a strange dream on the previous night and wished to communicate it to the other animals. It had been agreed that they should all meet in the big barn as soon as Mr. Jones was safely out of the way.

“Try rattling the cage and see which ones aren’t afraid.” I grabbed the chain-link gate and yanked on it with a loud clang. The dozen or so puppies reeled backward, collapsing on top of one another in a squiggling heap of fur. Just one remained. He was gold with a white blaze on his chest, and he charged the gate, yapping fearlessly. He jumped up and excitedly licked my fingers through the fencing. It was love at first sight.

The interpretation of dreams was intended as an…
