Conectores em inglês — nível B2

 

Conectores em inglês — nível B2

Os connectors ou linking words são palavras e expressões utilizadas para conectar ideias, frases e parágrafos. Eles tornam a comunicação mais clara, organizada e natural, tanto na fala quanto na escrita.

No nível B2 (intermediário alto), é importante não apenas conhecer os conectores, mas também saber qual utilizar em cada situação, como estruturar a frase e quais diferenças de significado existem entre eles.

1. Conectores de adição (Adding information)

Utilizamos esses conectores para acrescentar informações, apresentar argumentos complementares ou reforçar uma ideia.

Furthermore

Significado: além disso, ademais.

É mais formal e comum em textos acadêmicos, relatórios e argumentações.

The company offers competitive salaries. Furthermore, it provides excellent career opportunities.

A empresa oferece salários competitivos. Além disso, proporciona excelentes oportunidades de carreira.

Moreover

Significado: além disso, ainda mais.

Acrescenta um argumento que reforça o anterior.

The proposal is expensive. Moreover, it is unlikely to solve the problem.

A proposta é cara. Além disso, é improvável que resolva o problema.

In addition

Significado: além disso, adicionalmente.

Pode introduzir uma informação extra de maneira neutra.

In addition, employees can work from home twice a week.

Além disso, os funcionários podem trabalhar de casa duas vezes por semana.

Besides

Significado: além disso, fora isso.

É bastante comum na linguagem cotidiana, especialmente ao acrescentar uma razão ou justificativa.

I don't want to go out. Besides, I'm really tired.

Não quero sair. Além disso, estou muito cansado.

What's more

Significado: além do mais, e tem mais.

Acrescenta uma informação importante, muitas vezes para reforçar um argumento.

The hotel is close to the beach. What's more, breakfast is included.

O hotel fica perto da praia. Além do mais, o café da manhã está incluído.

Diferença importante: furthermore e moreover são mais formais. Besides e what's more são muito naturais em conversas e situações informais ou neutras.

2. Conectores de contraste (Contrast)

Utilizamos esses conectores para mostrar diferenças, oposições ou ideias inesperadas.

However

Significado: porém, entretanto, no entanto.

É um dos conectores mais úteis no nível B2. Normalmente conecta duas ideias contrastantes.

The job pays well. However, it requires working long hours.

O emprego paga bem. No entanto, exige trabalhar muitas horas.

Estrutura: Sentence. However, sentence.

Although

Significado: embora, apesar de que.

Introduz uma oração com sujeito e verbo.

Although it was raining, we decided to go for a walk.

Embora estivesse chovendo, decidimos dar uma caminhada.

Estrutura: Although + subject + verb, main clause.

Even though

Significado: embora, mesmo que.

É semelhante a although, mas geralmente enfatiza mais o contraste.

Even though he was exhausted, he kept working.

Embora estivesse exausto, ele continuou trabalhando.

Whereas

Significado: enquanto, ao passo que.

Compara duas pessoas, situações ou características diferentes.

My brother enjoys outdoor activities, whereas I prefer staying at home.

Meu irmão gosta de atividades ao ar livre, enquanto eu prefiro ficar em casa.

Nevertheless

Significado: mesmo assim, não obstante.

Expressa que algo acontece apesar de uma dificuldade ou argumento contrário. É mais formal.

The task was difficult. Nevertheless, we completed it on time.

A tarefa era difícil. Mesmo assim, nós a concluímos dentro do prazo.

On the other hand

Significado: por outro lado.

Apresenta outra perspectiva, vantagem ou desvantagem.

Living in a big city offers many opportunities. On the other hand, it can be stressful.

Morar em uma cidade grande oferece muitas oportunidades. Por outro lado, pode ser estressante.

Diferença essencial: although, despite e however

Esses três conectores são frequentemente confundidos por estudantes brasileiros.

Conector

Estrutura

Exemplo

Although

Although + sujeito + verbo

Although it was cold, we went out.

Despite

Despite + substantivo ou verbo em -ing

Despite the cold, we went out.

However

Nova frase ou oração coordenada com pontuação adequada

It was cold. However, we went out.

Tradução dos exemplos: embora estivesse frio, saímos; apesar do frio, saímos; estava frio. No entanto, saímos.

Também podemos usar despite the fact that + sujeito + verbo:

Despite the fact that he was tired, he continued studying.

Apesar de estar cansado, ele continuou estudando.

Erro comum de brasileiros

Não escreva: Although it was raining, but we went out.

Prefira: Although it was raining, we went out.

Em inglês padrão, não precisamos de but nessa mesma estrutura porque although já expressa o contraste.

3. Conectores de causa e motivo (Cause and reason)

Esses conectores explicam por que algo acontece.

Because

Significado: porque.

Introduz diretamente a causa.

I stayed at home because I wasn't feeling well.

Fiquei em casa porque não estava me sentindo bem.

Since

Significado: como, já que, visto que.

Pode apresentar uma razão conhecida ou usada como ponto de partida para a conclusão.

Since we don't have enough time, let's take a taxi.

Como não temos tempo suficiente, vamos pegar um táxi.

As

Significado: como, já que.

Também pode indicar causa, especialmente quando ela funciona como contexto.

As the roads were icy, we drove slowly.

Como as estradas estavam cobertas de gelo, dirigimos devagar.

Because of

Significado: por causa de.

É seguido de substantivo, pronome ou expressão nominal.

The flight was delayed because of bad weather.

O voo atrasou por causa do mau tempo.

Due to

Significado: devido a.

É frequente em comunicações profissionais, avisos e textos formais.

The meeting was cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances.

A reunião foi cancelada devido a circunstâncias imprevistas.

Because × Because of

  • Because he was ill, he didn't go to work. — Porque estava doente, não foi trabalhar.

  • Because of his illness, he didn't go to work. — Por causa da doença, não foi trabalhar.

A diferença está na estrutura: because introduz uma oração com sujeito e verbo; because of introduz uma causa expressa por um substantivo ou expressão nominal.

4. Conectores de consequência e resultado (Result)

São utilizados para mostrar o resultado de uma situação ou ação.

Therefore

Significado: portanto, por conseguinte.

Bastante comum em textos formais e argumentativos.

The evidence was insufficient. Therefore, the case was dismissed.

As provas eram insuficientes. Portanto, o caso foi arquivado.

Consequently

Significado: consequentemente.

Destaca o resultado que decorre de uma ação ou situação anterior.

He missed several classes. Consequently, he fell behind.

Ele perdeu várias aulas. Consequentemente, ficou atrasado.

As a result

Significado: como resultado, consequentemente.

É natural tanto na escrita quanto na fala.

She saved money for several months. As a result, she was able to buy a car.

Ela economizou dinheiro durante vários meses. Como resultado, conseguiu comprar um carro.

Thus

Significado: assim, portanto, dessa forma.

É mais formal e aparece em textos acadêmicos ou explicações lógicas.

The data was inaccurate, thus making the conclusion unreliable.

Os dados eram imprecisos, tornando, assim, a conclusão pouco confiável.

So

Significado: então, por isso.

É muito frequente na conversação e em contextos informais ou neutros.

I was tired, so I went to bed early.

Eu estava cansado, então fui dormir cedo.

Atenção à pontuação: therefore, consequently e as a result podem iniciar uma nova frase. Quando conectam duas orações independentes, normalmente usamos ponto e vírgula antes e vírgula depois do conector:

The roads were flooded; therefore, the school remained closed.

As estradas estavam alagadas; portanto, a escola permaneceu fechada.

Não use simplesmente uma vírgula para unir duas frases completas:

❌ The roads were flooded, therefore the school remained closed.

Prefira o ponto, o ponto e vírgula ou uma estrutura com so.

5. Conectores de finalidade (Purpose)

Utilizamos esses conectores para explicar o objetivo de uma ação.

Conector

Significado

Exemplo

In order to

Para, a fim de

She took a course in order to improve her English.

So as to

Para, com o objetivo de

He left early so as to avoid traffic.

So that

Para que

I spoke slowly so that everyone could understand.

In order that

A fim de que

The instructions were simplified in order that everyone could follow them.

Traduções:

  • Ela fez um curso para melhorar seu inglês.

  • Ele saiu cedo para evitar o trânsito.

  • Falei devagar para que todos pudessem entender.

  • As instruções foram simplificadas a fim de que todos pudessem segui-las.

In order to × So that

In order to + verbo na forma básica

He exercises regularly in order to stay healthy.

Ele se exercita regularmente para manter a saúde.

So that + sujeito + verbo

He exercises regularly so that he can stay healthy.

Ele se exercita regularmente para que possa manter a saúde.

A segunda estrutura permite explicitar quem realiza a ação posterior e é especialmente útil quando há sujeitos diferentes:

I wrote everything down so that my colleague could understand the instructions.

Anotei tudo para que meu colega pudesse entender as instruções.

6. Conectores de condição (Condition)

São utilizados para apresentar uma condição necessária ou possível para que algo aconteça.

Unless

Significado: a menos que, a não ser que.

Equivale frequentemente a if ... not.

Unless you hurry, you'll miss the train.

A menos que você se apresse, perderá o trem.

Equivalente: If you don't hurry, you'll miss the train.

As long as

Significado: desde que, contanto que.

Apresenta uma condição que deve ser cumprida.

You can borrow my car as long as you drive carefully.

Você pode pegar meu carro emprestado, desde que dirija com cuidado.

Provided that

Significado: desde que, contanto que.

É um pouco mais formal que as long as.

You can join the program provided that you meet the requirements.

Você pode participar do programa desde que cumpra os requisitos.

Even if

Significado: mesmo que.

Mostra que o resultado não muda, independentemente de uma condição.

Even if it rains, we'll go ahead with the event.

Mesmo que chova, seguiremos com o evento.

Erro frequente: em condições futuras reais, normalmente não usamos will na oração introduzida por if ou unless.

❌ Unless you will hurry, you'll miss the train.

✅ Unless you hurry, you'll miss the train.

7. Conectores para dar exemplos e esclarecer ideias

Esses conectores ajudam a explicar melhor uma ideia abstrata, ilustrar argumentos ou reformular informações.

Such as normalmente vem antes dos exemplos que fazem parte de uma frase:

Exemplos:

Tradução:

Na minha opinião, o trabalho remoto oferece diversas vantagens. É verdade que pode reduzir a interação presencial. No entanto, também permite que os funcionários economizem tempo e alcancem um melhor equilíbrio entre vida profissional e pessoal. Até certo ponto, seu sucesso depende de uma comunicação eficaz.

Esse tipo de organização é útil para redações, apresentações e exames de inglês de nível intermediário alto.

15. Como dominar os conectores no nível B2

Para aprender esses conectores de forma duradoura, não recomendo memorizar apenas as traduções. Pratique três habilidades:

  1. Reconhecimento: identificar a função do conector ao ler textos em inglês.

  2. Produção: criar suas próprias frases usando o conector e a estrutura gramatical correta.

  3. Substituição: reescrever frases usando conectores equivalentes, observando as mudanças de estrutura e formalidade.

Por exemplo:

  • Although the exam was difficult, I passed.

  • Despite the difficulty of the exam, I passed.

  • The exam was difficult. Nevertheless, I passed.

As três frases expressam uma ideia semelhante, mas usam estruturas diferentes.

Meta de estudo: escolha cinco conectores por dia, escreva duas frases com cada um e tente utilizá-los em uma conversa de dois minutos. Dessa maneira, você desenvolverá tanto a precisão gramatical quanto a fluência necessárias para o nível B2.
