Wow! I liked so much this lesson. It was very well explained. So now let's see if I learnt it. I'm happy because I know that tomorrow I'm going to the daughter's house.
Very good lesson!

Great, carinhatenso! I'm glad you liked ~~so much~~ the lesson so much!
Your use of so and because is perfect! There is just one small thing I would change in your sentence:
...I know that tomorrow I'm going to ~~the~~ my daughter's house.

Thank you, Ash.

I bought a new fridge because the old one was too small so I'll donate it to charity.

Por: Ash em 11/01/2010 às 12:23h

How nice of you, narim!

Por: Stefano em 13/01/2010 às 00:50h

I want a new car because it lives at mechanic service. So I need to work much more.

Por: Ash em 13/01/2010 às 11:40h

Hahaha! Yeah, when I lived in L.A. I had a car that lived at the mechanic's too!

I always had questions about this English class because I hadn´t understand yet. So I believe that I won´t do wrong.

Por: monicabic em 13/02/2010 às 14:51h

So, you hadn't understood it yet. Remember: HAD + PAST PARTICIPLE.

Por: degga06 em 13/02/2010 às 18:07h

Oh yes! Thank you Monica!

Por: edigarjr em 18/02/2010 às 18:02h

I´d better run now because i can´t practice tomorrow.

Por: monicabic em 18/02/2010 às 18:37h

You are right Edigar!

Por: edigarjr em 18/02/2010 às 18:06h

I study english so i get promotion in my company.

Por: monicabic em 18/02/2010 às 18:37h

So, you study English so that you get a promotion.

Because she swims very well, so she was called to the team.

Por: monicabic em 22/02/2010 às 18:49h

Linnocencio, in a sentence you can use "so" or "because", so:
- Because she swims well, she was called to the team.
- She swims well, so she was called to the team.

She went at home earlier because she was tired.

I finished my exercises so I'm going to sleep rigth now.

Por: Josh em 25/02/2010 às 11:02h

In English you only "go home", without a preposition - "She went home earlier..." Be careful with the spelling of "right". Great job! I'm very pleased with your comments, Denzel!

Por: Milena73 em 10/03/2010 às 20:06h

She was very unhappy because she was demoted at her job.

My little dog is sick, so I'll take her to a vet.

Por: Josh em 12/03/2010 às 10:26h

Fantastic sentences, Milena! Really great! That's too bad she was demoted at work (no trabalho). And I hope your little dog feels better after a trip to the vet!
