A Viúva e o Papagaio

---

It was a good little story although probably more notable for it's author being Woolf, then for it being a stellar book of its kind necessarily, yet when reading it with my daughter, we or mostly I found it compelling enough to read it thru to the end in one sitting. Io e la Woolf ci piacciamo, ma non abbastanza. Virginia Woolfin ainoa satu. Oli kiva ja opettavainen, muttei liian. Cute story, and of course with a moral.

It is the same as for the demonstrative, pos- sessive, and indefinite adjectives, and the ordinal numbers, which are all considered adjectives.

Also the cardinal numbers um and dois have a different form for the feminine cf. There are adjectives, denominated uniforms, which have only one form for both genders. This class embraces those ending by -e, -Z, -ar, -az, -is, -oz, -im, -ea and -o, and those ending by -s in syllable not accen- tuated. The place of the Portuguese qualifying ad- jective is for the most part after the noun as for those denoting colour, form, dimension, nationality, religion; while the demonstrative, possessive, and indefinite ad- jectives precede the noun. Tu es muito novo.

Existence in a general meaning, and is therefore called "Verbo substantive. A permanent state of existence, an essential and lasting condition, which may be expressed by substan- tive or adjective attribute or an infinitive. A terra e uma esphera the earth is a sphere. Sou feliz I am happy. E um lento morrer it is a slow dying.

Meu primo e soldado my cousin is a soldier. A rosa e uma flor, e vernielha the rose is a flower, it is red. Followed by the past participle of a transitive verb, ser is employed to form the passive voice. Elles for am censurados, they were blamed. Ser de means to belong to; ex.: To whom does this house belong? E de meu pas it is my father's. Estes livros sdo do professor these books belong to the master. A certeza de estarmos salvos the certainty of our being safe.

The Auxiliary Verb eslar. On the contrary, estar is used: If the attribute appears merely accidental or temporary. A rosa estd murclm the rose is faded. Elle estd feliz he is just now happy. Estamos ricos we are rich — vis. Eu sou doente would mean that I have bad health. Estou hom de saude I am well; sou hom I am good. Estd hem it is all right, he she is well, you are well; estd mal it is bad, or he she is ill, you are ill. If a dwelling is to be expressed in any place that can be left or the object can be removed from: A criada estd na eozinha the servant is in the kitchen. Onde e a cozinha?

Where is the kitchen? QrQ it may as well be said: A hoca flea debaixo do nariz the mouth is underneath the nose. While ser with the past participle of the verb forms the passive voice, estar with the same indicates the state or condition, as: A casa estd construid a the house is built.

A casa e construida the house is building. Elle estd preso he is a prisoner. Foi preso he has been imprisoned. A conta estd paga the bill is paid. Somos pagos aos meses we are paid monthly. Very often estar with another verb in the In- finitive or with the Present Participle is employed as an equivalent for to be with the Present Participle: Estou a escrever, estou escrevendo I am writing. Estamos col- leceionando or a colleccionar estampiJhas ha dois annos we have been collecting stamps these two years. Estar a ferver to boil, to be boiling. Such a paraphrase is called: There is a certain number of adjectives that are generally used with estar, such as: The verbs of the first coDJugation in -ar form the participles in -ando and -ado; those of the second in -er in -endo and -ido; those of the third in -ir in -indo and -ido.

Exercicio, Leitnra e yersao. A cidade de Lisboa esta situada na iqz do rio Tejo. Ella foi edificada em sete collinas. E grande e populosa. As suas ruas, pra9as e travessas sao empedrados. Antes do terremoto do anno de mil sete centos e cincoenta e cinco , as rnas na sua maioria eram tortas e estreitas. Bairros inteiros foram destrui- dos pelo terremoto. Foi o marquez de Pombal que, sendo ministro do rei Dom Jose I Primeiro , depois d'esta catastrofe mandou reedificar a capital em bairros regulares que sao atra- vassados e cruzados por ruas direitas e largas.

No socco deste monumento ha uma medalha de bronze, representando o marquez. Were you at the theatre yesterday? No, sir, I was at the theatre the day before yesterday; last night I was at the concert.

Estarei ate estiverem con- cluidos OS mens estudos. Esta satisfeito com a sua Estou, sim, senhor. Eu seria estada aqui? Sempre tem estado com saiide Nem not sempre; mas agora emquanto ca esta? The Auxiliary Verb haver to have, to be left , to take place, to get, to obtain, etc. As for to be, there are also for to have two correspondiog verbs in Portuguese: The latter, less common in the meaning to have than the former, is especially employed 1.

While so employed, it is impersonal and consequently used only in the third person singular and without a pronoun: The Auxiliary Verb haver. To form the compound Future Indicative and Conditional tenses: Here it may be used with the pronoun and must be followed by de. Modern writers join this preposition to the verb by a hyphen: In the meaning of to obtain: Elle houve o per- ddo do rei he obtained the King's pardon. Havendo o premio da nossa canceira obtaining the reward of our toil.

Eu hei [vi] I have nds h av emos [ vv emuf] wa tu has [afj you have have elle ha [a] he has v6s h av eis [ Tsv vif] you have ha there is elles hao [vu] they have. Eu havia [v'viv] I had nds haviamos [v'vivmuj] we tu havias you had had elle havia he had v6s havieis [v'vivij] you had havia there was elles haviam they had. Tern havido there has been. Tinha havido there had been. Haver ei I shall have, etc.

Terd kavido there will be had, etc. Haver ia there would be. Teria havido there would have been. Haja [ajv] that I have, etc. Haja let there be. All other imperative forms are unusual. In the same manner is conjugated the compound verb rehaver to have or get back ; but this verb is only used in forms which have the -v- rehavendOj rehavido, rehavia, rehouve, etc.

There are still other compound forms, Buch as: The same is to be said for the other auxiliary verbs, already mentioned. The omitted tenses may easily be sub- stituted. Yet there is still a tense quite peculiar to the Portuguese language, which we have not yet spoken of, because we wanted to mention it apart: Jiouvera; civeste; tivera; foste: This derivation is the same in any regular or irregular verb. Ilei-de fazer expresses not only that something will be done by me, but that I intend or am willing to do it.

Nos Iia- viamos-de ser mais economicos we ought to be more economical. Nos seriamos mais economicos we should be more economical. Ilouve-de ser cortes he had to be polite. Se ndo houvesse- de considerar isso if that were not to be considered. Se houver 'inos -de luctar com difficuldadas if there are diffi- culties to be fought with, or if we are obliged to fight against difficulties. Ha tres horas que estamos esperando or a espera we have been waiting these three hours.

Haver por hem means to think proper. It is scarcely used but by or of the King or the govern- ment. Haver por mal is rarely used and means: The reader will already have noticed that in the Imperative mood the second person sing, when employed affirmatively is derived from the same person of the Present tense Indicative by losing the s; and from the Present Subjunctive, when employed nega- tively;— e. The reader will find it in the general conjugation-table. Em portnguCs ha dois verbos auxiliares para traduzir o veibo ingles to have, e outros tantos, para traduzir to he. Os primeiros sao ter e haver; os liltimos ser e estar.

As vezes essa diffe- renQa e bem pouca, outras vezes nao ha nenhuma. Ha quern considera uma das maiores difficuldades da lingua portuguesa o fazer distincuo dos verbos ser e estar. Se nao houvesse maior difficuldade, ou se essa fosse a linica, o estudo da lingua nuo seria difficil. Ha poucas semanas que o it esta- mos estudando o ja sabemos conjugar os verbos auxiliares.

Estes verbos, sendo os mais most irregulares, sao os mais difficeis. Tenham pois animo e sejam applicados. There is a man downstairs. There are two men down- stairs. There is to be a saint's day this week. Is there much money in England? Yes, there is transl. Will there be a concert to-night? No, there has been a concert last night. There's nothing the matter. I have been walk- ing these two hours. I must go home. Is it long since you have been learning Portuguese?

No, it is only a few weeks. And there has been some interruption by holidays. Have you had a gram- mar? Now we have, but we had not from the beginning. Que tem o alemao? Ha ali grandes casas? Ha, sim, senhor; e a d'elle his e uma das maiores. Houve, mas ja ha alguns mezes. Tem havido terremotos mais Tem. Nao foi o criado comprar Nao havia peixe nomercado; peixe no mercado? As we have seen, there are two forms of the Infinitive: It is employed after a preposition.

Faze dUigencia para seres horn. Take pains to be good. Employment and Concord of Tenses. Passei sem me verem I passed without being seen lit.: Depots de nos estarmos seniados, conversdmos. After having sat down, we talked. While the Present has only one tense, the Past is divided into two, or — taking also the Pluperfect —into three simple tenses: The Preterito imperfeito is used: Passdvamos o vcrno no canijw we used to pass the summer in the country.

It was raining while I took a walk. FMes foram a um siiio que ficavq muiio longe. They went to a place that was very far off. A lebre, coma corria muito, fioti-se nas pernas. The hare, being a good runner, trusted to its legs. As in English, the Imperfect may often be substituted by the first Participle— e. It is the historical tense, being peculiarly appropriated to the narrative style and therefore used: Na batalha de Aljuharrota os Portugueses venceram os castelhanos. In the battle of Aljuharrota the Portuguese vanquished the Castilians. Eu tive uma carta I got a letter.

JEmquarito havia trovoada, elle entrou em casa. Whilst there was a thunderstorm, he entered the house. Have you already dined or had dinner? Tive uma cJiicara de chd I have had a cup of tea. Comprdwos cafe we have bought coffee. Gomprdmos assucar we have bought sugar, and: Temos sempre comprado assucar ao ne- gociante, nosso vizinho.

Another tense peculiar to the Portuguese is the Simple Pluperfect Mais-que-perfelto simples already! There is no difficulty whatever in its use. The first participle or gerund Farticipio Imperfeito or gerundlo does not essentially diifer in its Employment and Concord of Tenses. The Future of the Subjunctive Mood, also a form connected solely with the Portuguese language, is used to express some uncertain future event.

It is nearly exclusively employed after the conjunctions se if, quanct? Quando tivermos dinheiro, compraremos essa casa. When we shall have money, we shall buy that house. Se tftiver em casa, a porta esiard aherta. If he is or be at home, the door will be open. Emquanto ndo fizerem diligencia, nao serdo succedidos. As 'long as they do not take pains, they will not sicceed. The Conditional is employed as in EngHsh.

Se tivesse dinheiro, compraria or cowprava essa casa. If I had money, I should buy that house.

Ainda que fosse rico, nuo a compraria or ndo a com- prava. Even if I were rich, I should not buy it. Se ndo tivesse sido tdo tarde, o liomem ndo teria or ndo tinha estado cm casa. If it had not been so late, the man would not have been at home. So we employ in the subordinate sentence the Imperfect or Pluperfect of the Conjunctive, and in the principal sentence the first or second Conditional.

Eu ndo digo que seja assim. Do you think he will have understood? Beceio que fido esteja em casa. I was glad he had come. Buvido que ienhas chegado a tempo. I doubt that you have arrived in time. Ndo tenhas duvida que eu seja teu amigo.

Don't have any doubt that I am your friend. Julgdra que tivesse escripto I thought he had written Palayras. Leitura c Tersj o.

A Brief Grammar of the Portuguese Language

William is my friend. I am William's friend the friend of W. Here is John's brother. Where is my sister Ellen?

Sá, Anisabel Fernandes

She is in the kitchen. I had a cousin who went see p. Yes, he was very young. Had you not money enough to buy some peaches? No I had not , I was short of money. There are no more Jd nao ha y but we shall have gooseberries and currants. The boys would have had a holi- day if they had not been so lazy. These are so restless.

I shall be glad if you be more industrious for the future. And you, my boy, will be more happy. A que horas comeijam as aulas?

As sete, oito, nove, dez. Que licjoes ha de manha? Quantos dias ha na semana, e quaes pi. Quantos dias liteis ha n'esta semana, visto haver as there is to be um dia santo? To indicate an indefinite quantity or an indefinite part of a whole, the Portuguese expression is about the same as the EngHsh: Do you want some bread? Have you got some money? I was some moments late cheguei tarde de alguns momcntos.

However, the quantity being determined by a noun expressing measure, weight, or number, or by a substantive adverb, the name of the substance is pre- ceded by de: Here also the employrpent is the same as in English. If the word which denotes quantity has not the form of a substantive, the substance is not preceded by de again the same as in English: Tern muito vinho he has much wine: Um metro de fazenda a meter of stuff. Um arratel fv'rratei de assucar [is'sukar]. A pound of sugar. Dots arrdteis de farinha two pounds of meal. Um par de hotas a pair of boots.

Tres leguas ['legwvg] de distancia three miles' distance. Um quarteirdo de ovos 25 eggs. Um certo numero de cartas a certain number of letters. Um grupo de pessoas a group of people. Uma grande quantidade d'arame. A great quantity of brass -wire. Um pouca de paciencia a little patience. Um nada de esperanga a want of hope. Muito ar much air. Mais dgua more water. JPouca distancia little distance. Bastante trabalho work enougn, rather much trouble. Demasiado vinho or vinho demais too much wine. Poucas toalhas too few tablecloths. Muitas collier es too many spoons.

The partitive genitive with de or d' is also used in terms equivalent to adjectives denoting the material of which a thing is made or its origin or purpose, as: Um vestido de seda a silk dress. Um chapeu de palha a straw-hat or bonnet. TJma camisa de linho a linen shirt or chemise. Um fato de la a woollen suit of clothes. A sola de jantar the dining-room. Present Tense of a Yerb of the First Conjugation ending: Please to conjugate the present tenses and participles of the verbs: You may also prac- tise the interrogative and negative forms.

Que ha nas travessas? Para onde tomamos a comida? Que ha em frente de cada pessoa? Que ha no meio da tnesa? Onde estao as tra- vessas? The Complements and the Most Frequent Prepositions.

The Portuguese does not speak ofi a declen- sion of nouns. He merely distinguishes subject sii- jeito and object or complement complementoj ; and as for the latter, a complemento directo which corresponds to the English accusative, and a complemento indirecto which corresponds to the English dative or genitive. The latter may also be called the restrictive complement, as it indicates indeed a restriction in the meaning. The object accusative is in the form equal to the subject nominative.

The prepositions are always followed by the accusative — that is:
