muito bom ,é mais uma ajuda
Reparei que a tradução de “tenho andando” é “I have been” mas “tem dormido” e “tem comido” são “he has been sleeping” e “he has been eating.”
Porque não é “tenho andado” em vez de “tenho andando”? Qual é a diferença entre estas frases?
Como sempre, um ótimo “shortie.”
Obrigado.
Olá! Foi um erro de escrita que já foi corrigido – as nossas desculpas 🙂 A única forma correta é “tenho andado”.
Should “Tenho andando muito cansado” (at 22 seconds) be “andado” as per the lesson on the verb Andar?
The shorty, although very understandable, seems to be full of a verb form that I can’t find a lesson for. EG é chamado, tem dormido and fico cansado. There is a unit on the part participle which seems to use imperfect-auxiliary + ido/ado form, but I can’t find anything which has present-auxiliary + ido/ado.
What’s this called, and am I just not finding it through not hitting the right search term?
Olá! Yes, it should be “tenho andado”. Just a typo which has already been fixed – sorry about that!
From your examples, only the structure “ter + past participle” corresponds to an actual verb tense (called “pretérito perfeito composto” in Portuguese and usually corresponding to the present perfect continuous in English). “É chamado” is a passive voice structure and “fico cansado” is nothing specific – “cansado” works as an adjective here, not as a past participle. For the “pretérito perfeito composto”, we have a unit in the works about compound tenses that will also cover it 🙂 In the meantime, this forum post might help you: Practice Portuguese Forum – Past using haver or other verb
Joseph, thanks for helping unravel all of that for me.
The “unit in the works” thing also explains why search turns up a lot of exercises on compound tenses, but not the lesson (which just goes to a blank page headed “draft”). I’ll just have to contain my enthusiasm 😉
When he says: “Tenho andando…..”, should it not be ‘andado’? That is, the participle not the gerund form? Thanks for your help and the wonderful shorties.
Absolutely, it’s “tenho andado”. Sorry about that typo – fixed!
