New York, New York!

Last Saturday, we learned to pronounce the verbs correctly!
During this time, we discussed the correct way to pronounce the name of the city "New York", where we discovered that his pronunciation was different from what always thought it was (speaking at the old Portuguese: instead of "Niu" as we thought, pronounced "Nu York").
The discussion reminded of the legendary Frank Sinatra and how he pronounced the name of the this city in his famous song. And also comment on the Jay Z song, featuring the singer Alicia Keys, which also talk about The Big Apple.

For those who like to remember, here is the link for "New York, New York" by Frank Sinatra: http://www.4shared.com/audio/vVhDxmEf/Frank_Sinatra_-_NewYork_New_Yo.htm

And for those unfamiliar, here is the link of the song "Empire States of Mind" sung by Jay Z and Alicia Keys: http://www.4shared.com/audio/f4JbxT5s/Jay-Z_Feat_Alicia_Keys_-_Empir.htm


Enjoy and sing the songs to practice their English! ;)

See you tomorrow
