1
I've just made myself a cup of tea
2
and I should do some housework soon
3
but it got me thinking about two words that many students find very difficult to use.
4
Today I want to talk to you about make and do.
5
So why are these words so difficult to use the answer is
6
that both words have very similar meanings
7
and in many languages they use just one word like acid in Spanish
8
so what is the main difference well with make you are creating something
9
that didn't exist before whilst with do you're completing a task
10
that already exists now please remember as with all English concepts there are always exceptions
11
and I will talk about those after I've explained in most important parts
12
so things that we can create from scratch a coffee
13
or tea shall I make you one an offer I'd like
14
to make you an offer can I make a suggestion all right
15
but only if you make me a promise also I think I've made a mistake I'd like to make a complaint
16
who's making
17
that noise I've made a really important discovery most things to do with business go with make for example profit
18
and loss last month I made a loss
19
but this month I want to make a profit you can also make an investment into somebody else's business. If you're sure
20
that your football team is going to win it could be
21
an idea to make a bet on them to try
22
and earn some extra cash and also if things go really well for you
23
and you earn a lot of money you will have made a fortune.
24
Now let's talk about do.
25
I've already told you that do is when you complete a task that already exists for example
26
every night I do my homework next week I have to
27
do a test in science we did experiments I hope I
28
don't have to do any interviews soon next summer I think
29
I will do a language course housework chores the tasks
30
and that's an important one to remember i hate doing the shopping i don't mind doing the dishes
31
but i loathe and that means really hate doing the ironing you can also do well or badly in something
32
i did badly in an exam last summer
33
so now i have to do it again you can do bad
34
or good doing good is doing something positive
35
if you eat healthily you do yourself good you also do your best
36
or do your worst if you run a race you should do your best to try
37
and achieve the best possible time I've got my red pen out it's exception time
38
and unfortunately there are many exceptions to do with do
39
and make I told you that most things to do with money
40
and business go with make however have you ever heard the
41
phrase pleasure doing business with you business just the word goes
42
with do we do business with someone I also said
43
that housework chores go would do but
44
when I get up in the morning I should make my bed I also said
45
that make was to do with creation
46
so we create art right wrong we do a drawing
47
and finally girls hair and makeup I do my hair
48
and I also do my makeup oh sorry just doing my lipstick um that's it for make
49
or do I really hope you learned something
50
and I would really appreciate it if you subscribe and also
51
if you attempt the quiz
52
that I'm showing next you can leave your answers in the comments and I will try and correct them all.
53
Bye -bye!

LEARNING ENGLISH - LESSON 1 ( Repeat and Remember)
British AccentBusiness EnglishDaily ConversationHigh School Students
O cenário: Café, tarefas e a dúvida entre "make" e "do"
Imagine que você acorda, faz um café e pensa em arrumar a casa. Essa situação cotidiana é exatamente o que a professora fala no vídeo: ela usa "make" para criar algo novo (um café) e "do" para completar uma tarefa existente (fazer limpeza). Essa distinção é crucial, mas existem exceções — como "make my bed" (arrumar a cama) ou "do business" (fazer negócios). Aprender inglês com vídeos como esse ajuda a ver essas nuances na prática!
Trechos úteis e colocações para memorizar
- Make a mistake / make a complaint: Usamos "make" para criar situações (mesmo que negativas), como "eu cometi um erro" ou "fiz uma reclamação".
- Do the shopping / do the dishes: "Do" é para tarefas rotineiras, como "fazer compras" ou "lavar louça".
- Make a profit / do business: Exceção no mundo dos negócios: "gerar lucro" usa "make", mas "fazer negócios" é "do business".
- Do your best: Expressão comum para "fazer o seu melhor" em qualquer situação.
Seu desafio de shadowing: Repita e imite!
O shadowing em inglês é uma técnica poderosa para melhorar a pronúncia e a fluência. Aqui está sua tarefa: reproduza o trecho do vídeo onde a professora fala sobre "make" e "do" (começando com "I've just made myself a cup of tea..."). Use o shadow speech: ouça uma frase, pause e repita imitando a entonação e o ritmo. Isso ajuda a internalizar as colocações e a pronúncia correta. Pratique 5 minutos por dia — você verá a diferença! Lembre: o shadowspeak não é apenas repetir, mas se tornar um "sombra" da fala nativa.
Essas dicas são perfeitas para quem quer aprender inglês de forma prática. Continue usando vídeos como recurso e não esqueça de testar seus conhecimentos com os quizzes — é a melhor maneira de fixar o que aprendeu!

| Present perfect have/has + particípio passado — uma ação passada que ainda importa agora | I've just made · I've explained · I've made |
| Conselho com “should” should + verbo — dizer o que é uma boa ideia | should do · should make |
| Superlativos the -est / the most … — o maior ou o menor de um grupo | your best · your worst · the best |
| Present continuous am/is/are + -ing — algo que está acontecendo agora ou nestes dias | are creating · you're completing · is doing |
O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
