91.) EL USO DE "SAY Y TELL" = DECIR

       



   "Pardon.....what did you say"?








A veces "SAY y TELL" puede ser un poco complicado al usarlos en inglés, porque en español los dos significa "DECIR"

1.) Con"SAY" muchas veces se usa el mismo pronombre que el sujeto de la frase
Ejemplos:
-He says he´ll be late  =  El dice que llegará tarde
-Susan says she can´t come to the party  = Susan dice que no puede venir a la fiesta
-They said they would arrive late  = Dijeron que llegarían tarde
-I said I was going to buy clothes = Dije que me iba a comprar ropa
-My sister said she wanted to invite us to have dinner Christamas Eve  = Mi hermana dijo que quería invitarnos a cenar en Nochebuena
-The boss says he´s going to buy a present for all his team  = El jefe dice que va a comprar un regalo para todo su equipo


2.)También se puede usar (that) si quieres, pero no es necesario
-Juan said (that) he wasn´t feeling so hot  = Juan dijo que no se encontraba muy allá
-The teacher said (that) the math test would be on Tuesday  = El profesor dijo que el examen sería el Martes
-I said (that) I didn´t mind if went to eat chinese food  = Dije que no me importaba si fuéramos a comer comida china
-They said (that) they would book the hotels  =  Ellos dijeron que reservarían los hoteles

3.) El uso de "SAY" en preguntas:
Ejemplos:
-What did she say about me?  = ¿Que ha dicho de mi? o Que dijo de mi?
-Where did they say they were going? =  ¿A donde dijeron que se iban?
-What did you just say?  =  ¿Que acabas de decir?
-What time did the boss say he was going to have the meeting  = ¿A que hora dijo el jefe que iba a tener la reunión?
-Where did he say he had left the car? = ¿Donde dijo que había dejado el coche?
-Where did they say which restaurant they wanted to go  = ¿A que restaurante dijeron que querían ir?

4.) También se usa "SAY"con la voz directa
Ejemplos:
"I´ve just come back from New York", said Susan = Acabo de volver de Nueva York, Susana dijo
"I can´t go to the party", said Peter = No puedo ir a la fiesta, dijo Pedro
"I wouldn´t say that if I were you", said the teacher = No diría eso si fuera vosotros, dijo el profesor
"I feel dizzy", said Susan  = Me encuentro mareada, dijo Susan
"I´m as blind as a bat", said Linda  = No veo ni tres en un burro


5.) Se puede usar "SAY + TO + OBJECT
Ejemplos:
-What did Tony say to to you?  =  ¿Que te dijo Tony?
- He said to me that we should get ready to go  = Me dijo que deberíamos prepararnos para irnos
*En las frases de arriba también se puede usar "TELL"+ un pronombre como objeto de la frase
- What did Tony tell you? = Que te dijo Tony? o  Que te ha dicho Tony?
- He told me that we should get ready to go  = Me dijo que deberíamos prepararnos
* No se dice: He said me.... pero si se puede decir: He said to me
* Es mucho mejor usar "TELL", en lugar de usar "Say to"
- He told me = El me dijo,  en lugar de decir: He said to me
-I told you not to call me so early  = Te dije que no me llamaras tan pronto

-Our parents told us to get up  = Nuestros padres nos dijeron que nos levantáramos

6.) Expresiones con "SAY"
Ejemplos
-It´s really hot. You can say that again!  = Hace mucho calor. Y que lo digas!
-No sooner said than done  = Dicho y hecho
-That´s easier said than done!  =  Del dicho al hecho hay mucho trecho
-Shall we say tomorrow night?  = Digamos mañana por la noche?
-He´s really a dick; to say the least  = Como mínimo, realmente es un imbécil!
-Why didn´t you say-so before?  =  Y porqué no lo has dicho antes!
-What do you want me to say?  = Que quieres que diga?
-I must say you look great in that dress  = La verdad es que estás fantástica en ese vestido
-Who gave the say-so to continue with the project?  = Quien te dio el visto bueno para continuar con el proyecto?
-Why is Tom here at the party? Because I say so = Porqué está Ton en la fiesta? Porqué lo digo yo
-I have no say in this matter = No tengo ni voz ni voto en este asunto
-You don´t say!  = No me digas!

7.) Por tanto, vemos que cuando se usa "TELL"es necesario usar un "OBJECT PRONOUN" 
Ejemplos:
-My sister told me to call my mother  = Mi hermana me dijo que llamara a mi madre
-They told us they were going to go shopping  = Nos dijeron que se iban de compras
-What did the boss tell you to do?  = ¿Que te dijo el jefe que hicieras?
-I told everybody to come to my house on Sunday  = Les dije a todos que vengan a mi casa el domingo
-My wife told me to clean the kitchen  = Mi mujer me dijo que limpiara la cocina
-He told us to wait for him in front of the restuarant  = Nos dijo que le esperemos delante del restaurante
-The teacher told his students to be quiet  = El profesor les dijo a sus alumnos que se callaran
-I told them to meet us at City Hall  = Les dije que se reunieran con nosotros en el Ayuntamiento
-Why did you tell her that she had to finish the report before going home?  = ¿Porqué le has dicho que tenía que terminar el informe antes de irse a casa?
-Tell them I´m sorry  = Diles que lo siento
-Tell me that you´re sorry  = Dime que lo sientes
-Don´t tell me, let me guess  = No me lo digas; déjame que lo adivine

8.) "TELL" también significa "CONTAR" 
Ejemplos:
-I´m going to tell you a funny joke = Te voy a contar un chiste gracioso
-Can you tell us a story Daddy?  = ¿Nos puede contar un cuento Papa?
-I want to tell you a secret; so don´t tell anyone  = Quiero contarte un secreto; así que no se lo cuentes a nadie
-Please tell me what happened at the party  = Cuéntame lo que pasó en la fiesta por favor
-Did I ever tell you that I had a job picking up golf balls  =  ¿Te he contado alguna vez que tenia un trabajo recogiendo pelotas de golf?

9.) Unas expresiones con "TELL"
-He´s getting a divorce. I told you so!  = Se va a divorciar. Ya te lo dije!
-You can tell they´re country folk  = Se ven que son de pueblo
-There´s no telling what might happen  = No se sabe lo que podría pasar
-I can´t tell the difference  = Yo no veo ninguna diferencia
-The boss is pissed off. You´re telling me!  = El jefe está mosqueado. Me lo vas a decir a mi!
-To tell you the truth; I don´t feel like going  = Para decirte la verdad; no me apetece ir

The moment I wake up                      El momento cuando me despierto

Before I put on my makeup                Antes de ponerme el maquillaje 
I say a little prayer for you                Digo una pequeña oración para ti
While combing my hair now,               Mientras me cepillo el pelo ahora
And wondering what                         Y preguntándome que

dress to wear now                            vestido ponerme ahora 
I say a little prayer for you                Digo una pequeña oración para ti
 
Forever, forever, you'll                      Para siempre, para siempre, tu

stay in my heart                              estarás en mi corazón
and I will love you                            y te amaré
Forever, forever, we                         Para siempre, para siempre, nosotros

never will part                                 nunca nos separaremos
Oh, how I'll love you                         Ay, como te querré
Together, together,                          Juntos, juntos, 

that's how it must be                        así es como debe de ser 
To live without you                           Vivir sin ti
Would only be heartbreak for me.         Solamente se me rompería el corazón
 
I run for the bus, dear,                      Voy corriendo para el autobus, cariño
While riding I think of us, dear,            Mientras viajo pienso en nosotros, cariño     
I say a little prayer for you.                Digo una pequeña oración para ti
At work I just take time                     En el trabajo simplemente me tomo el tiempo
And all through my                            Y durante mi

coffee breaktime,                              almuerzo
I say a little prayer for you.                Digo una pequeña oración para ti
 
Forever, forever, you'll                       Para siempre, para siempre tu

stay in my heart                               estarás en mi corazón
and I will love you                             y te querré
Forever, forever we                           Para siempre, para siempre nosotros

never will part                                  nunca nos separaremos
Oh, how I'll love you                          Ay, como te amaré
Together, together,                           Juntos, juntos

that's how it must be                         así es como debe ser
To live without you                            Vivir sin ti
Would only be heartbreak for me.         Solamente se me rompería el corazón
 
My darling believe me,                        Mi amor créeme,
For me there is no one                       Para mi no hay nadie mas
But you.                                          Solamente tu
