Some and any

Comecemos por uma breve explicação. Um dos artigos indefinidos utilizados no PLURAL é o SOME (algo /algum /alguma /alguns /algumas /algo de).

Exemplos:

• SOME BOOKS = alguns livros
• SOME PEOPLE = algumas pessoas
• SOME FRIENDS = alguns amigos

Este artigo só é utilizado em orações AFIRMATIVAS. Para construir orações INTERROGATIVAS ou NEGATIVAS, trocaremos o SOME por ANY.

Exemplos:

• Do you have any books?
• We haven’t got any sugar.

Como tudo em idiomas o complicado não são as regras e sim as exceções, veja aqui uma lista de situações onde não podemos usar os artigos.

Como podemos perceber é impossível decorar todas as regras e colocá-las em prática imediatamente. O importante é criar um senso crítico que lhe permita saber se a utilização de uma palavra em determinada situação está correta ou não.

Adjectives

Os adjetivos em inglês são usados para qualificar ou modificar um substantivo ou um pronome. Eles aparecem antes do substantivo ou depois dos verbos de ligação na frase. Veja os exemplos:

I have a blue pencil. (Eu tenho um lápis azul.)
She is smart. (Ela é esperta.)

Porém, alguns adjetivos possuem uma terminação diferente. É o caso dos adjetivos que terminam com –ing e –ed. Observe:

Julia's job is boring. (O emprego de Julia é chato.)
Julia is bored. (Julia está entediada.)

Perceba que no primeiro exemplo o adjetivo boring refere-se ao emprego de Julia. Já no segundo exemplo, refere-se a ela. Ainda poderíamos escrever desta maneira:

Julia is bored because her job is boring.
(Julia está entediada porque seu emprego é chato.)

Agora compare outros exemplos:

* interesting (interessante) * interested (interessado(a))

Julia is very interesting. Julia is very interested in Arts.
(Julia é muito interessante.) (Julia é muito interessada em Artes.)

* surprising (surpreendente) * surprised (surpreso(a))

This film is surprising! I am surprised with this film!
(Este filme é surpreendente!) (Eu estou surpreso(a) com este filme!)

* shocking (chocante) / shocked (chocado(a))
 

This scene is shocking. Everybody is shocked.
(Esta cena é chocante.) (Todos estão chocados.)

Note que geralmente não há uma forma específica para o masculino e outra para o feminino nos adjetivos. Ao traduzir a frase, você deverá flexioná-lo conforme o substantivo!

How many or How much.

How much = quanto custa
How many = quantos são
