Сама там пасусь почти ежедневно. :girl_yes2:

И приложение их для Мозилы скачала и использую, которое позволяет делать быстрый перевод слов, просто выделяя их, а потом можно добавлять их для изучения у них на сайте (разные виды тренировок).

could - мог бы, образовалось от can и стало в 8 раз слабее, чем can.

I can do it. — сделаю точно. I could do it. — сделаю, если будет время и настроение.

would образовалось от will и стало в 8 раз слабее.

should образовалось от must и стало в 8 раз слабее.

- And this is my office.
- What do you do?
- I am a doctor for women.
- What do you do with them?
- I deliver their babies.
- Deliver?
- When the woman has the baby inside of her, then I go in and I take it out.
- No you don't. Everybody knows that the stork brings the baby.
- Who told you that?
- My daddy.
- Okay. Well, the stork puts the baby inside of the mother... and then I go in and I take it out.
- Ah aah. The stork brings the baby to the hospital and drops it in the bassinet.
- So you say that the baby is not inside the mummy?
...
Then why is it that the mother gets real big?
- Because she eats a lot of food.
- Now let me get this straight. You say that the stork carries over, puts the baby in the bassinet, and the mother is real big because she eats a lot of food?
- You got it.
- I see. Well, then why is it that the mother has to go to the hospital?
- The stork brings the baby to the hospital, drops it in the bassinet. The mummy goes to the hospital and gets it.
- If the stork does all that, why doesn't the stork just bring it to the mummy's house?
- Because it's too far. His wings will get tired.
- Where does the stork get the babies from?
- Heaven.
- Okay. There is a zillion skillion babies in Heaven. How does the stork know what baby goes with what mother?
- They are in a line. You know like you go to the baker and get a number.
- Why when I put my hand on the mother I can feel things moving all around?
- That's not a baby.
- What is it?
- Gas.
- Well thank you for explaining it to me.
- You're welcome, but you still didn't tell me what you do.
- I'm in charge of gas.

Очень хорошие книги по работе над произношением:

Five Ways to Speak More Naturally   lhttp://lingualeo.ru
 
You are learning English. Of course you want to speak naturally, as if you were American or British. But how can you do this? Here are five tips to help.


1 - use 'get'

'Get' is one of the most useful - and most used - words in the English language. English speakers use it all the time! Take a look at this example:

English Learner: What time did you arrive?
Native Speaker: What time did you get there?

'Get' has so many meanings. It can mean 'take' or 'buy'. English learners often have trouble using 'get' to mean 'become':

English Learner: I became angry when the train was late.
Native Speaker: I got angry when the train was late.

In fact, we generally use 'get' for temporary situations and 'become' for permanent situations.

Temporary: She got bored with the movie.
Permanent: Ralph became a doctor at age twenty-five.
Incorrect: Ralph got a doctor at age twenty-five.


2 - use 'used to'

'Used to' is one of the most useful phrases in English, and it is even easy to pronounce. English learners often get confused when they try to substitute a phrase from their own language:

English Learner:   Last time, I smoked a lot.
English Learner:   I smoked a lot, but now, no.
Native Speaker:  I used to smoke a lot.

Here's a word of warning. There are two forms of 'used to' in English and they both have different meanings and grammatical structures:

Example 1: I used to be a policeman.
Example 2: I am used to eating spicy food.
In example 1, the meaning is 'in the past, but not now'. In example 2, the meaning is 'familiar with'.


3 - use 'managed to'

Here is another phrase that does not translate easily into other languages. As a result, it is difficult for learners to start using. To manage to do something is to succeed in doing it. However, if you use the phrase 'succeed' instead, the result sounds clumsy:

English Learner: Did you succeed to find the keys that you lost?
Native Speaker: Did you manage to find the keys that you lost?


4 - use 'about to'

'About to' is a little phrase that is surprisingly useful. Listen out for it and you will be surprised how often you hear it used. We use this phrase to show that something will happen soon. Here is how a native speaker might use it:

English Learner: I think it is going to rain soon.
Native Speaker: It looks like it's about to rain.

English Learner: I can't have another coffee. I am going soon.
Native Speaker: I don't have time for another coffee. I'm about to go.


5 - don't use 'very'

Why not use 'very'? It's not incorrect at all, but using 'very' actually prevents you from applying more descriptive vocabulary.
 
For example, instead of saying 'very large', why not say 'huge'? Instead of saying the food is very good, why not say that it is absolutely delicious?
 
Just to get you started, here are some more phrases that you can use instead of saying 'very':

very good - terrific, fabulous, excellent
very bad - awful, terrible, dreadful
very small - tiny, microscopic
very old - ancient
very new - brand-new
very beautiful - gorgeous
very clean - spotless
 
Успехов пацаны! :girl_wink:
