Nesta lição vamos dar uma olhada no vocabulário básico, para que você possa aprender como responder à pergunta “Where?”.
Vamos explicar as respostas “under,” “on top of,” “behind,” “in front of,” “beside,” “inside,” “outside,” and “between.”
Você use “between” quando algo está cercado em, pelo menos, dois lados.
Por exemplo, se você digitar ABA, a letra B está between (entre as duas letras A). Você também pode dizer que está in the middle of the two As.
A expressão ‘In the middle’ pode ser usada em outras situações. Por exemplo, vocẽ pode dizer “I am standing in the middle of the store,” mas vocẽ não pode dizer, “I am standing between the store.”
Você pode dizer “I am standing between the music store and the library,” mas o significado aqui é bem diferente que “I am standing in the middle of the music store.”
In this lesson, I look at some basic vocabulary that can help you answer the question “Where?”
I explain “under,” “on top of,” “behind,” “in front of,” “beside,” “inside,” “outside,” and “between.”
You use “between” when something is surrounded on at least two sides.
For example, if I type ABA, the letter B is between the two As. I can also say it is in the middle of the two As.
In the middle can be used in more situations. For example, you can say “I am standing in the middle of the store,” but you cannot say, “I am standing between the store.” To be BETWEEN something, you need to have something surrounding you on at least two sides. So, you CAN say “I am standing between the music store and the library,” but the meaning is much different than “I am standing in the middle of the music store.”
I hope this helps! If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask!
