LESSON 02: DAY BY DAY!
Além das horas, aprender os dias da semanas e os meses é essencial

4. THE YEARS

We usually say the years by dividing it into two parts:

1976
Nineteen seventy-six

● 1359 - Thirteen fifty-nine

● 1998 - Nineteen ninety-eight

Para a primeira década (decade = 10 years) de cada século (century =

100 years) antes do ano 2000, nós falamos o número ZERO como O
/ou/:

● 1306 - Thirteen O six

● 1709 - Seventeen O nine

Quando o ano acaba em 00, falamos os dois primeiros números,

depois dizemos hundred:
But why? As centenas são formadas por 3 números, por exemplo: 100,
239, 450, sempre 3! Quando vamos ler números (não somente anos)
terminados em dois zeros, é comum “inventarmos” um número novo
para as centenas. Take a look:

● 1500 - Fifteen hundred (é como se “15” representasse um

número, a centena, e o 00 a dezena e a unidade,
respectivamente, formando uma centena, por isso usamos
hundred.)

● 1800 - Eighteen hundred.

Examples:

● I was born in 1996.

● The French Revolution started in 1789.
● Queen Victoria died in 1901.
● People believed the world would end in 2012.

Real examples:

● “So I was born in 1966, it was that precious time.” - Viruses: The
Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
● “While on a business trip he died in a plane crash on May 28,
1971.” - Top 10 Greatest Warriors
● “And it will be finished by the end of June.” - re:publica 2014 -
Looking for Freedom
● “I usually plan my weeks on Friday afternoons.” - Laura
