While OU During

As palavras WHILE e DURING são usadas de maneira bem similar. Abaixo encontra-se um Podcast extraído do English Essentials Community Membership que explica como usá-las.

Aqui há algumas anotações que você poderá usar enquanto estiver ouvindo…

While = VOCÊ pratica as 2 ações
During = Você pratica 1 ação e alguém mais pratica uma outra ação

ESTRUTURAS>>
NOTA: Ação 1 é mais longa que a ação 2

Estrutura #1)
WHILE (ação1), eu praticava (ação 2)

Estrutura #2)
Eu praticava (ação 2) WHILE (ao mesmo tempo) eu praticava (ação 1)

Estrutura #3)
Ação 2 DURING ação 1
Se usarmos “I” (“eu”) para a primeira ação e não para a segunda, usaremos DURING.
Se usarmos “alguém/algo” (ação 2) WHILE “I” (enquanto “eu”) estava (ação 1)
Exemplos:

  1. While I was drinking, I received a phone call
  2. I received a phone call while I was drinking
  3. I received a phone call during the party
  4. I received a phone call while at the restaurant
