In final, 0 remarca. La radio televizor auziti adesea conversatii sau ciintece in limba engleza.
Uneori pronuntia acestora difera de ceea ce va propunem noi in cadrul lectiilor. Aceasta se
intiimpla deoarece exista diferenle de pronunlie intre engleza vorbita in Marea Britanie, in SUA
cea din Australia.
Cititi cu atentie transerierea fonetiea, tiparita eu aflata in paranteze
drepte. Pentru sunetele care nu exista in limba romana, folosim semne
speciale:
Diftongul [auJ se pronunFi la fel ca in limba romana: "dau, sau". Sunetul
raj este neaccentuat, scurt. La cuvantului, "r"-ul se pronunta doar
daca este urmat de un ait cuvant: > [taua
I
].
Semnul fonetic [i] indica un sunet moale, asemanator grupului de vocale
"iu", "ea", "ei" din limba romana. Se pronunta ca primul sunet din cuvin!ele:
"iute, ea": >
- strada cu magazine

Semnul fonetic [U] indica litera "w" care, de obicei, nu se pronunta. In
cazurile In care se pronunta, rotunjim gura ca pentru "u" spunem "v":
>[ rei!liei].

Consoana [r] din limba engleza difera de "r"-ul romanesc. Rostiti "r" lara
sa atingeti cerulgurii cu Jimba lara vibrarea limbii. Astfel, obtineti un
"r" englezesc. Semnul [i:] se pronunta ca un "i" lung, ca in cuvintele "vii,

Complexul de sunete n(g) eorespunde sunetelor similare din limba romfma,
dar "g" se aude slab, ca in euvantul romanesc "lung".
in cuvintele din Jimba engleza formate din mai muite silabe, una dintre
silabeeste accentuata. In transcrierea fonetica, vocala scrisa cu litera
semnaleaza silaba accentuata: >

direct de orice vocala, tara a mai fi nevoie de un "e" sau "i" intermediar.
Sunetul [a:J se pronunta ca "a" lung. Semnul [I] (r ridicat) indica un
care se aude foarte slab:

Iar acum vom i'nvata cateva verbe. eu ajutorullor putem forma deja propozitii simple:
Verbul este partea de vorbire care exprimii 0 acriune, 0 intamplare, ca de exemplu: a vizita, a
deschide etc. in limba englezii, cand verbulnu este conjugat (cand inaintea lui nu apar pronumele
personale eu, tu, el, noi etc.), verbul este la modul infinitiv si este precedat de particula to [tu]. in
limba romanii, infinitivul este indicat de particula a, ca de exemplu: a vedea, a intra etc.

Sa repetam inca 0 data:
intotdeauna
Pentru a forma propozitii in limba engleza, avem nevoie de cuvinte ca:
in fiecare dimineata
Cuvintele "often, always, seldom" stau intotdeauna intre verb
pronumele personal, pe cand expresiile "every day, every morning" stau
la inceputul sau la propozitiei.
in fiecare zi
I often enter the church_
We always see the train.
You open the door every day.
Exersati cuvintele noi:

(tu) deschizi > you opcn >[iu: aupnJ
(noi) intram > we entcr > [Ui: cnta']
(ei, ele) viziteaza > they VISit >[O'ei viZl!]
Acum vom construi cateva propozitii simple. Fiti atenti la pronuntie:
rar
They seldom visit
the tower.
Re(ineri: in limba romGmi, (de obicei) nu fo!osim inail/tea verbu!ui pronume!e persona!, ceea ce nu
schimba sensu!; de exemp!u: eu vad =vad. ill Iimb(J el/g!ezii, insa. este ob!igatoriu sa indicam printr-un

Intelesul difera datorita faptului ca sunet se pronunta 0 data sonm, apoi surd.
Controlati In care din cazuri vibreaza corzile vocale In care cazuri nll vibrcaza:
DZ Este varianta pe care am folosit-o pentru a nota varianta sononl a grupului "th"
din limba engleza.
1.7. Particula "to" atunci cand se aDa Inaintea verbului, indica infinitivul, dar folosit ca
prepozitie, inseamna "Ia, in, spre".
1.9. Daca un cuvant se termina Intr-un din consoanele surde, (de exemplu, "k, f, p, 1")
atunci telminatia "s" se pronunta [-s]. Daca un cuvant se termina Intr-o consoana sonora,

Verb + pronume personal +
auxiliar sau substantiv
In prima parte a lectiei am clarificat regulile de formare a intrebarilor raspunsunlor cu ajutorul
verbului to be. lnversiunea nu poate fi folosita in toate cazurile de formulare a intrebarilor.
in propozifiile aflrmative intalnite pana aeum, verbul era folosit la timpul prezent simplu -
(the Simple Present Tense [DZa simpl prezant tens]). in propozi{iile interogative, toate verbele
cu exceptia lui to be, sunt illsofite de auxiliarul verbul to do [tu du]. in aeest caz verbul to do
[tu du] sta inaintea subiectului dupa care urmeaza verbul de conjugat.
We seldom see the buildings. - What >do we seldolll see? - Ce vedem rar?
acum, prin intennediul exemplelor urmatoare yeti vedea cum folosim verbul auxiliar "does":
- Ciind deschide (el)
magazinul?
- Ei cand viziteaza fendeia?
- Unde se Jplimba Ion
in ficcare zi?
- Unde se plimba (ei)
in fiecare zi?
- Ce iti place?
- Ce fel de ii plac (ei)?
- El cand viziteaza fata?
- Unde mergi de obicei

Propozi!ie interogativii folosind "who":
Who likes cars?
Who seldom sees

Who opens the door
every day?
Constructia interogativului fonnulata cu ajutorul cuvantului "who"
("cine?") este asemanatoare cu cea a propozitiei afirmative, numai
ca pronumele personal sau substantivul este inlocuit de cuvantul
"who". In acest caz, verbul va fi conjugat la persoana a treia
singular, deci va primi intotdeauna tenninatia ,,-s".
Do you like the girl? Yes, I do. - Da.
Does she live in Bucharest? Yes, she does. - Da.
Do we go to school Yes, we do. - Da.

do se pronun!a cu "u" lung.

Cine vorbqte rar Cll Maria?
Propozi!ie afirmativii:

!ntrebarea se formuleaza altfel cu ajutorul cuvfmtului who.
Acum sa folosim formele prescurtate. Dati raspunsuri negative la urmatoarele intrebari:
>Where do you want to go by bus?
> 1)0 you know the hotel in Station Street?
> Do you want to go there in the afternoon?

Sa ne intoarcem din nou la utilizarea timpului Present Perfect Tense. Folosim acest timp pentru
descrierea evenimentelor petrecute in trecut care includ mai mult sau mai putin momentul actual,

- recent, de curand, in ultima vreme
already >
[o:lredi]
- deja
yet >
[ iet]
- inca, deja
so far >
[sau fa:
f
]
- pana acum, deocamdata

Complementul de timp "yet" se afla intotdeauna la propozitiei, "so far" la

inceputul sau la propozitiei, iar celelalte complemente de timp se gasesc
inaintea formei a Ill-a a verbului sau la propozitiei.
Cititi cu voce tare complementele de timp care se folosesc alaturi de Present Perfect:

folosqte insa mai des.
Complementele de timp stau la inceputul sau la propozi!iei.
Acele eomplemente de timp care in cazul altor timpuri se afla la
mijlocul propozitiei, la acest timp trec inaintea verbului principal.
2. Fom1area lui este simpla: verbului auxiliar "will" ii adaugam fonna I-a

care se petrec in viitor folosim timpul Simple Futurc.

Sunt insa situatii in care pronumele posesiv apare singur, ca un pronume propriu
$i nu este urmat de substantiv. in acest caz se schimba $i fonna lui. $i se nume$te
pronume posesiv propnu:

Pronumele posesiv sta de obicei inaintea substantivului:

"will not" poate fi prescurtata "won't",
Interogativul la timpul Simple Future se formeaza prin inversarea ordinii

My sister works at the airport. She must get up early, when it is still dark.
Does she like this work?
I think she does. She likes to watch the planes when they rise into the sky.
Where did she work before?
Yes, I know a lot of them. They are always in a hurry. And some ofthem smoke too much,
too.
So it was easy for her to leave the butcher's for the airport?
Yes, it was. But it was difficult to find this new work. I helped her. She will never return to

Constructia propozitiei:
Interog,ativul se formeaza prin inversarea ordinii subiectului a verbului auxiliar:
\
They had been here before I came. - Had they been here before I came?
Had you been here before I came?
Expresia "had not" se prescurteaza "hadn't":
Raspunsurile afirmative se alcatuiesc cu ajutorul adverbului "yes", a pronumelui
personal a verbului auxiliar "had". Negatiile se formeaza cu ajutorul cuvantului
de negatie "no", a pronumelui personal, a verbului auxiliar "had" a adverbului
"
"not.

Cititi cu atentie urmatorul dialog fiind atenti la pronuntie intonatie. Cuvintele silabele accentuate
sunt scrise
Barbara: How did she help you?
John: You know I wanted to buy a car after I had earned more money. But I was still short of
money and she gave me some.
Barbara: Today we must go to the supermarket to do some shopping. There are many things on my
shopping-list. Now you can return this money!
John: Why must we go to the supermarket all the time?
Barbara: Because the shop-assistants are very polite there and they stock almost everything. And
today they have sales there.
Mary, have you heard that a lot oflabourers don't like their jobs?
No, I haven't. And why don't they like their jobs?
They say their wages are too low and they must often apply for a raise.
Well, I have heard about that. But the management has refused their applications so far.
Hardly any employees like the management.
And the other problem is that there is unemployment in our surroundings. Even John has
hardly worked this summer. The trade-union wants to negotiate about the strike.
And all our employees are members of this trade-union. The management already knows
about it and wants to fire some of the employees. Do you know how many people they
want to fire')
No, I don t. I think there must be a few. But there are many unskilled workers and they
will not get a job.
I must give my thanks to your mother because she has helped me.
Good. today I'll take you to the supermarket in my new car.
33
Mary, today we have a lot of work to do.
I know. I must dust the tables, empty the rubbish-bin and iron my father's shirts.
And I must place the gas-cooker somewhere else, because it cannot stand next to the
fridge.
But you can't do it today. All of our electric tools are out of order.
I almost forgot about that. Then I'll go and buy a new electric oven to the kitchen.
But Tom, we must pay for it in cash and right now we are short of cash.
Then I will peel the vegetables for dinner.

pe deplin pronuntia intonatia.
Peter, have you ever been in an accident?
No, I haven't, but my brother was yesterday afternoon.
How did it happen?
My brother was on a zebra-crossing at the traffic-lights and a cab was
coming from the right.
And... what happened?
The cab didn't stop in time and my brother was hit by it.
Was your brother injured?
Yes, he was, but fortunately not seriously.
I am glad he wasn't seriously injured. Were there any witnesses who saw
the accident?
There were many onlookers, and the witnesses say my brother did not
cause the accident.
I feel so tired after a hard day of work.
People are tired when they get home from factories and offices.
And they do nothing only go to bed early because they are sleepy.
When it is too noisy outside they wake up.
I usually wake up even when it's only a little noisy.
But when you have a nightmare you are glad when you hear the alarm
clock.
Peter. do you travel mainly by underground to your office?
Yes, J do. You travel by underground fast and easily.
Yes, but it has become very expensive. Do you have a time-table?
There are so many underground trains that you don't need a time-table.
And a modem underground is not noisy or dirty.
- 31 -
Have you heard the news that yesterday a pedestrian was hit by a car at the
traffic-lights?
No, I haven't, but some pedestrians think they always have the right of
way.
But everybody knows that it is not true.
Yes, everybody knows it only the pedestrians don't. We must all try to
prevent accidents.
You are right. Policemen cannot do everything.
I think it is better when there are also traffic-lights.

Peter, don't you think that we still have time for shopping?
I don't know. The streets are still full of traffic and you cannot drive very fast.
And something is wrong with the car. It didn't accelerate well when I was driving home.
And you don't know what the trouble is, so you have to ask a mechanic to check
everything.
If the trouble is serious I have to call a breakdown van.
Peter, the mechanic just called and said that he had to put a new engine in our car, but is
that true?
I don't know. You know that some people are not reliable. They only want your money.
But we don't have enough money right now to pay for a new engine.
Then we have to borrow money, at a high rate of interest.
This shows how one bad thing can cause another.
Well, it is better not to worry too much.
People try to write very fast because they have little time.
But when you do the necessary things you leave the bank in a hurry.
Yes, many people want to make a withdrawal or a deposit.
I think so. Why do you ask that?

Peter, did you listen to what Barbara and John have just said?
Yes, I did. The weather is something to talk about every day and everywhere.
When people meet, they like to talk about the weather.
They are glad when they can sit in the sun for example.
Sometimes the weather can give us beautiful things.
A lightning can be very impressive, but it also scares some people.
Is there anybody who doesn't enjoy looking at a rainbow? And what about a beautiful
sunset?
Even a thunderstorm or a shower can be beautiful.
The best thing is to be satisfied with the weather, for there is nothing that we can change
about it.
Barbara, I just read in the newspaper that to people who live in the country and earn their
money in agriculture, the weather is much more important than to those who live in a town
or city.
That's right, favourable weather is necessary for a good crop.
But sometimes it is too dry and at other times it is too wet.
There has to be enough sun, too.
Yes, but if it is too dry for too long, the crop will not grow fast enough.
But we know that farmers are not easily satisfied.
Ei s-au oferit (singuri) sa reeolteze secara.
El ma duce acasa cu diseara.
Am vazut eu insumi asta.
Cand vrci sa tunzi oile?
De s-ar schimba vremea!
Cine cfu1;i, va inva!a multo
Aeesta este eeva ce nu am vazut niciodata
pana acum.

Of course there are happier things to talk about than crime, such as weddings.
Yes, just tell me please who isn't happy himself when he sees other people happy on their
wedding-day.
Even if you prefer to stay single you can imagine that this is a day they will never forget.
We must hope that life will always bring us more to be happy about than to be sad about.
Speaking about crime you know that people have always said that crime doesn't pay.
But in some countries crime seems to be profitable because the criminals are not sufficiently
punished.
I agree, and if a prisoner is convicted of a crime, he often doesn't have to go to prison for
a long time.
How true it is. They say this is because the criminal didn't know what he was doing when
he commited the crime. Don't ask me how they know.
And if a prisoner's behaviour is good he is released.
I think the only thing we can do to change this situation is to punish the people who don't
want to punish the criminals.

What John was saying was true. But don't other people feel bad when there is nothing for
them to do, or at least they think there is nothing?
Yes, I think so. Usually these people are wasting their time or choose to listen to the radio
or watch television.
And these people are very happy when friends come to visit them so they can talk about
the news or whatever is worth talking about.
Wouldn't it be difficult to say which of these is the better way of spending time?
Well, it's hard to say. We are always ready to say that we are doing things the right way
and other people are not.
But how can we be sure?
It is a good thing that we are all different.
John! Clever people say time is an important thing in our lives.
Of course. To do the things we have to do we need time.
When there is too little time we cannot do things as well as we want to do them.
Yes, but there are people who always know what to do with the time.
You are so right.They go for a walk or read a book or make all kinds of things that are
useful or beautiful.
Sometimes they sell these things, which is their way of showing that time is really money.
