Dá para notar que você está estressado. | Inglês Todos os Dias #440

O meu aluno estava reclamando de estar em quarentena – tentando trabalhar de casa, cuidar dos filhos, ajudar na limpeza, etc. E eu brinquei e disse: Dá para notar / perceber que você está estressado. 🙂 Como você diria isso em inglês? Vamos aprender a dizer isso no mini-podcast de hoje.

      They are similar, but used a little differently.
      
      Children can tell when we are worried. – This is more direct.
      Children pick up on our worries. – This means that, even though you are trying to hide it or not be so obvious, they can tell that something is wrong and “pick up on it”.
      
      Can you tell the difference between the two expressions now?

Hi Tim,

I can tell you have gained some weight during this quarantine! Hahaha. I guess everybody has!

Please, I have two questions:

* Does “stressed” have T sound?
* What does “stressed up” mean? I’ve heard this expression, even about this book “All Stressed Up, and Nowhere to Go!” but I’m not sure if this phrasal verb really exists…
Reply
- Tim Barrett on July 16, 2020 at 20:07
  
  Hey, Cassius! Yep! Guilty as charged! haha
  
  Yes, the -ed in stressed has a /t/ sound.
  
  Are you sure the sentence wasn’t “stressed out and nowhere to go”?

  - Cassius Mazzeu on July 16, 2020 at 20:15
    
    Hi Tim,
    
    Yes, I am.
    Check it out: https://books.google.com/books?id=h-gBY3OXzMIC&dq=stress+out+and+nowhere+to+go&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiMpZKS89LqAhVBWK0KHc8kC2sQ6AEIJzAA
    
    Weird, right?
    Reply
    - Tim Barrett on July 17, 2020 at 09:34
      
      That’s strange. I don’t know why he uses “stressed up”. It’s usually (or always) “stressed out”. Do you think he might explain why in the book?
      Reply
      - Cassius Mazzeu on July 18, 2020 at 17:16
        
        That’s a good point!
        
        Maybe he’s creating a new word and explaining why in the book. Speaking of which, these days, I heard about “Innovability,” a new concept that puts together Innovation and Sustainability.
        
        Anyway, I’m not going to be stressed out about it!
