O inglês como ele é: Likes and Dislikes, parte 1
Se você é como a maioria das pessoas que aprendem inglês, quando quer expressar que gosta de alguma coisa diz I like it ou, se gosta muito, I love it. Quando não gosta de algo, é I don't like it ou, para ser categórico, I hate it. Gostar e não gostar são expressões importantes em qualquer língua; afinal, quantas vezes por dia comunicamos o quanto gostamos ou não de alguma coisa?
Hoje, vou apresentar mais vocabulário sobre esse tópico: graus diferentes de gostar/não gostar para, se você quiser, sair do like/don't like - no próximo artigo, tem mais.
Usando REALLY
- Really pode ser traduzido como 'realmente', mas também funciona como 'muito' e 'de verdade' ( e até Sério? se você perguntar Really?). Veja a diferença entre usar really ou não:
My father likes the painting. He may buy it. Meu pai gostou do quadro. Talvez ele compre.
My friend really likes the painting. He's going to buy it. Meu amigo gostou muito do quadro. Ele vai comprá-lo.
They really like this restaurant. They come here every week. Eles gostam mesmo desse restaurante. Eles vem aqui toda semana.
- O really também pode ser usado para enfatizar o don't like, é claro:
I don't like sushi, but yesterday I had some. Eu não gosto de sushi, mas ontem eu comi um pouco.
Jess really does not like sushi. She can't even smell it. A Jess não gosta mesmo de sushi. Ela não pode nem sentir o cheiro.
Tammy really does not like cell phones. She doesn't even have one. A Tammy não gosta mesmo de celulares. Ela nem tem um.
Veja que o really, nos casos acima, vem depois do sujeito da sentença (my father, my friend, they, I, Jess, Tammy) e enfatiza que alguém gosta ou não gosta de alguém/alguma coisa.
- E olha só como a função do really muda se você usá-lo como nos exemplos abaixo: ele atenua um pouco a negativa.
I don't really like horror movies. We can watch one if you want. Eu não gosto muito de / não ligo muito para filme de terror. A gente pode assistir se você quiser.
She didn't really enjoy her vacation. She was worried about her job. Ela não aproveitou de verdade as férias dela. Ela estava preocupada com o emprego.
Sendo categórico sobre 'não gostar'
Use at all em negativas para ser categórico:
She doesn't like him at all. Ela não gosta dele mesmo/ de jeito nenhum.
I don't like mushrooms at all. Eu não gosto mesmo de cogumelhos/de jeito nenhum.
O can't stand também é ótimo para expressar que uma pessoa "não suporta" alguém/alguma coisa. Veja este exemplo de alguém que não gosta de cogumelos com muita ênfase:
I don't like mushrooms at all. I really can't stand them.
Mais exemplos com can't stand:
My neighbor can't stand cats. He doesn't like them, and he's allergic. Meu vizinho não suporta gato. Ele não gosta deles, e é alérgico.
Valerie can't stand spiders. She's terrified of them. A Valerie não suporta aranha. Ela morre de medo.
