Do you have a big family? Tem uma grande família?

What do you like doing when you spend time with your family? O que gosta de fazer quando passa tempo com a sua família?

Talking about family can be a good way to start a conversation in English, so it's Falar de família pode ser uma boa maneira de iniciar uma conversa em inglês, por isso é Разговор о семье может быть хорошим способом начать разговор на английском языке, поэтому

useful if you know what to say and if you have some questions to ask. 何を言うべきか、また質問することがあれば、役に立つ。 полезно, если вы знаете, что сказать, и если у вас есть вопросы, чтобы задать.

Let's start with something simple. Let us|begin|begin with|a task|easy

Part one: introducing your family. ||介绍|| Section one||presenting||

Let's start with a simple sentence:

"There are ________ people in my family." «В моей семье есть люди».

So you can say:

"There are five...

There are ten...

There are thirty people in my family." В моей семье тридцать человек».

That's not too hard, but it's not so interesting, either! |||||||||也 |||||||||non plus |||||||||でもない 難しくはないが、面白くもない！ Isso não é muito difícil, mas também não é muito interessante! Это не слишком сложно, но и не так интересно!

You should say who these people are. Deve-se dizer quem são estas pessoas.

"There are ten people in my family: I have two sisters, one brother, my uncle and aunt, ||||||||||姉妹|||||| "Há dez pessoas na minha família: Eu tenho duas irmãs, um irmão, o meu tio e a minha tia,

two grandparents and my parents of course." ||||||当然 |祖父母||||| dois avós e, claro, os meus pais". двое бабушек и дедушек и, конечно же, мои родители».

"There are four people in my family: my wife, my two sons and myself." "Há quatro pessoas na minha família: a minha mulher, os meus dois filhos e eu".

Part two: Talking about your brothers and sisters.

How many brothers and sisters do you have? Quantos irmãos e irmãs tem?

You could say:

"I have two brothers and one sister."

"I just have one sister." "Eu só tenho uma irmã". «У меня только одна сестра».

"I'm an only child." 我||| 「僕は一人っ子なんだ "Sou filho único". "Я единственный ребенок."

Let's make it more interesting by adding more information. ||||||追加して||

Are your brothers and sisters older or younger? Os seus irmãos e irmãs são mais velhos ou mais novos?

Where are you in the family? Onde se encontra na família? Где ты в семье?

"I have two older brothers and one older sister.

I'm the youngest in the family." Eu sou o mais novo da família".

"I just have one sister, who's five years older than me." 「僕には5歳年上の姉が一人だけいる。 "Só tenho uma irmã, que é cinco anos mais velha do que eu".

"I'm the middle child: my brother is two years older, and I have a younger sister who's 「兄が2歳年上で、妹が1歳年下。

finishing university this year."

Part three: talking about your immediate and your extended family. |||||直接的|||大家庭| ||||||||拡大家族| パート3：肉親と親戚について話す。 Часть третья: разговоры о ваших ближайших и дальних родственниках.

In English, we sometimes draw a line between your immediate family. ||||划|||||直系| 英語では、肉親との間に線を引くことがある。 Em inglês, por vezes traçamos uma linha entre a sua família imediata.

That means: you, your husband/wife, your children, parents, and brothers and sisters. Isto significa: você, o seu marido/esposa, os seus filhos, pais, e irmãos e irmãs.

Then, you have your extended family. そして大家族だ。 Wtedy masz swoją dalszą rodzinę. Depois, tem a sua família alargada.

That means: aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews, nieces, grandparents, grandchildren, and so ||姑姑|叔叔|表兄弟姐妹|侄子|侄女||孙子孙女|| ||||||nièces|||| ||おばたち|||甥|||孫たち|| ||||||племінниці|||| Ciò significa: zie, zii, cugini, nipoti, nonni, nipoti e così via. Isso significa: tias, tios, primos, sobrinhos, sobrinhas, avós, netos, e assim por diante

on.

Now, you can give more details about the people in your family, like this: |||||||||||家庭||

"My immediate family is quite small, because I'm an only child. 「僕は一人っ子だから、肉親はとても小さいんだ。 "Yakın ailem oldukça küçük, çünkü ben tek çocuğum.

My mum is one of five children, so I have a lot of cousins, who are kind of like my |||||||||||||表兄弟姐妹|||像||| |mother|is|one|||||||||||||||| A minha mãe é uma das cinco crianças, por isso tenho muitos primos, que são como os meus Моя мама — одна из пяти детей, поэтому у меня много двоюродных братьев, которые чем-то похожи на моих.

brothers and sisters.

There are six people in my immediate family: my parents, my brother and his wife, my sister

and me.

I have a lot of other relatives, but they live in Canada so we don't see them often." |||很多|||亲戚||||||||||| Tenho muitos outros parentes, mas eles vivem no Canadá, por isso não os vemos com frequência".

Part four: talking about your children.

Do you have children? Tem filhos?

Let's see what you can say:

"I have three kids: two girls and a boy."

"We have a newborn son." |||新生儿| |||nouveau-né| |||infant| |||新生児| "Temos um filho recém-nascido".

"We have one daughter, and my wife's expecting our second child." |||||我的||怀孕中||| ||||||||||baby |||||||妊娠中||| 「娘が1人いて、妻は2人目を妊娠中なんだ。 "Temos uma filha, e a minha mulher está à espera do nosso segundo filho". «У нас есть дочь, и моя жена ждет второго ребенка».

As always, you should add details to make your answers longer and more interesting: Como sempre, deve acrescentar detalhes para tornar as suas respostas mais longas e mais interessantes:

"I have three kids: two girls and a boy.

Our eldest daughter has just started secondary school, and the two younger ones are still |长女|||||中学|||||||| |aînée||||||||||||| |oldest||||||||||||| |長女|||||中学校|||||||| |найстарша донька||||||||||||| A nossa filha mais velha acabou de iniciar o ensino secundário, e as duas mais novas ainda são Наша старшая дочь только что пошла в среднюю школу, а две младшие еще учатся. 我們的大女兒剛上中學，兩個小女兒還在上學

in primary school." 在小學。”

"We have a newborn son.

He's just three weeks old now, so we're still getting used to things!" 他||||||||||||事情 生後3週間だから、まだ慣れないんだ。 Сейчас ему всего три недели, так что мы все еще ко всему привыкаем!"

"We have one daughter, and my wife's expecting our second child.

We don't know if it's a boy or a girl, but we'll find out in three months." Мы не знаем, мальчик это или девочка, но узнаем через три месяца».

Part five: talking about your relationship with your family.

Finally, let's add some information about how often you see your family, and what you

like to do together. нравится делать вместе.

For example:

"I'm very close to my family. «Я очень близок со своей семьей.

We have lunch together every weekend."

"I see my older brother once a week; we play tennis or basketball together."

"I try to spend as much time as possible with my kids." 「子供たちとできるだけ多くの時間を過ごすようにしている。

What now? Que| 今度は何だ？

You should know the answer: add more details! Вы должны знать ответ: добавьте больше деталей!

Let's look: "I'm very close to my family. |見てみよう|||||| 家族とはとても仲がいいんだ。

We have lunch together every weekend at my grandmother's house. ||昼食||||||祖母の|

She always cooks something delicious!"

"I see my older brother once a week; we play tennis or basketball together. ||||||||||网球||| je|||||||||||||

I don't see my other brother so often, because he lives overseas, although we talk on Skype ||||||||||住|国外|虽然|||| |||||||||||في الخارج||||| ||||||||||||||||スカイプ もう一人の兄は海外に住んでいるので、スカイプで話してはいるものの、あまり頻繁には会っていない。

every so often." 每个|| chaque|| ogni tanto". しょっちゅうだ。 время от времени».

"I try to spend as much time as possible with my kids. |||||尽可能多||||||

We play cards, watch films, or go to the park if the weather's nice." |||||||||公园|||| トランプをしたり、映画を観たり、天気がよければ公園に行ったりするんだ」。

Part six: making a longer answer.

Now you should be able to make a longer answer talking about your family. Теперь вы должны быть в состоянии дать более развернутый ответ, рассказывая о своей семье.

You should be able to talk about your relatives, your brothers and sisters, your children if |should|||||||||||||| Вы должны быть в состоянии говорить о своих родственниках, своих братьях и сестрах, своих детях, если

you have any, and your relationship with your family.

Let's look at a sample answer: ||||示例|

"There are five people in my immediate family, although my extended family is quite large. ||||||直接||虽然|||||相当| ||||||proche|||||||| 「肉親は5人だが、親戚はかなり多い。

I have two sisters, both younger, so I'm the oldest child. |||||||||l'aîné| 僕には妹が2人いて、2人とも年下だから、僕が長男なんだ。 У меня две сестры, обе младшие, так что я старший ребенок.

I don't have kids yet but I'd like to have a big family one day. まだ子供はいないけど、いつかは大家族になりたい。 У меня пока нет детей, но я хотел бы однажды иметь большую семью.

I see my parents and my sisters quite often, because we all live near each other, although ||||||||||||||||虽然 両親や姉妹とはよく会う。 Rodziców i siostry widuję dość często, bo wszyscy mieszkamy blisko siebie, chociaż

I don't see my other relatives that much." 他の親戚にはあまり会わないんだ」。

OK?

Could you make an answer like this? Не могли бы вы сделать такой ответ?

Let's look at one more sample answer first: Schauen wir uns zuerst eine weitere Beispielantwort an:

"I come from a big family: I'm the fifth child, and I have three brothers and one sister. «Я из многодетной семьи: я пятый ребенок, у меня три брата и одна сестра.

They're all close to each other in age, but there's a big gap between them and me. |||||||年龄||||||||| ||||||||||||gap|||| ||||||||||||隔たり|||| Sono tutti vicini di età, ma c'è un grande divario tra loro e me. みんな歳は近いけど、僕との間には大きな隔たりがある。 Они все примерно одного возраста, но между ними и мной большая разница.

I don't have children, but I have lots of nieces and nephews! |||||||||sisters' daughters||male relatives 私には子供はいないが、姪や甥がたくさんいる！

I don't see my family often because I live in a different country, but I speak to them |||||||||||||||||them 私は別の国に住んでいるので、家族とはあまり会わないが、彼らとは話すことがある。

regularly and we all get together once or twice a year, which is always very noisy but |||||一起||||||||||吵闹| регулярно, и мы все собираемся раз или два в год, что всегда очень шумно, но

lots of fun." много веселья."

What about you?
