Maquinista Processa Empresa Onde Trabalha Por Redução Salarial

Impersonal verbs are verbs that do not use a specific subject, but instead use the generic subject it. They’re often called “weather verbs” or “meteorological verbs” because they’re commonly used to describe the weather, like in the impersonal verb examples “it’s raining” or “it’s snowing.” 

 Words and phrases with asterisks mean that they are not always impersonal, depending on the meaning.

blizzard
come to*

hail*
happen*
look like*
occur*
pour*

你会爱上机器人吗？

假如有一个机器人完全是按照你的喜好制造的，他/她会为你做饭，帮你做家务，每天逗你开心，他/她了解你所有的需求，能满足你的所有要求，而且长得还很帅或者很漂亮，完全就是你的梦中情人，你会爱上他吗？

但是他/她可能没有心跳，没有人类的正常需求，不用吃饭，不用上厕所，也不需要睡觉。但是他会唱歌，也可能会跳舞，甚至上知天文，下知地理，你不会的事情问一下他就可以了。但是他/她可能没有荷尔蒙，不知道他/她会不会让你心动呢？

或者他/她可以成为很好的朋友？也可能是一个很危险的人物，如果他被病毒入侵了。你期待拥有一个机器人吗？

Notes:

上知天文，下知地理：意思是一个人知道很多。

荷尔蒙：hormone

病毒：virus

入侵：invade

In today's episode, we learn why it's wrong to say that the food was 'very delicious', or that the weather was 'very freezing'. The reason is all to do with the fact that some adjectives are GRADABLE - we can make them stronger or weaker by using intensifiers such as 'very' or 'fairly', for example 'she's very pretty' or 'the weather is very hot'. But other adjectives are UNGRADABLE, which means that they're already at the very top (e.g., 'amazing') or the very bottom (e.g., terrible). But how do we stress these adjectives, if we can't use 'very'? Learn how in today's podcast, and manage to avoid one of the most common mistakes made by students of English.
