~•||> Hey! Let's learn a little bit about the conjugation of the verb to be in the present simple!

~Well, the verb “To Be” it's very used in the English grammar... Some examples are: the present continuous, the past continuous..
To understand and make phrases in the present or past continuous it's necessary a knowledge about the conjugation of the verb "to be"...
So here, I'll try to help some of you that are beginners!

First, let's know the pronouns and their meanings in Portuguese!

1-I=Eu
2-You=Tu/você
3-He=Ele
4-She=Ela
6-It=Ele/ela (Objectos e coisas)
7-We=Nós

Conjugating the verb to be to each pronoun we'll have:

And finally.

~•|> Hey! One of the best things I've learned in my life it's:
~Never compare you with others!... Everyone is different! Each one has it's own way of being! Has it's own capacities/abilities...
If you wanna learn English and be good at! Stop comparing you with others and start comparing you with yourself!
What you can't do yesterday and you can do today!
Try to better yourself day after day!

I Hope you succeed...!
