Sometimes they can replace each other and other verbs and also they can be replaced by other modals

Problem Verbs - Say x Tell
Hey Guys
Again here with no videos. This topics of Problem verbs I think it would be better like this.
So, moving on with the Problem Verbs, today we have Say x Tell
To Tell/Told
Well, first of all to tell is used to give information and instructions
Ex: He told me what time it is
I told my name to the manager
And also it´s required an pronoun or the name of the person.
Ex: She told me what happened to our friends
My mother is telling Bob to clean his bedroom
To Say/ Said
The verb to say you point out to whom the message is been said after to:
Ex: My friend said to me he´s going home
What did you say to them?
Also when there is no to whom is been talked:
Ex: He said something funny last week
"I was here before", he said
It´s used to signs and labels:
Look at the sign, it says "restrict area"
to Say/ to Tell + that:
After those verbs the used of that is yours guys. If you prefer you can use, if not just omit it.
Here there are some exercises for you guys, do them and improve your skills

Problem Verbs - Do X Make
Good morning everyone
I´m going to start some classes without video trying to explain some problem verbs that are commom problems for many students. Today I´m explaining the difference between DO and MAKE.
Bom dia a todos
Estou começando hoje uma pequena série de aulas sem video para explicar alguns verbos problemas que são duvidas comuns para muitos alunos.
DO
As a whole DO is used to indicate an activity performance, which include work.
Ex:
Do your best
do business with someone
do nothing
do a favor
do a good job
do the shopping
do the dishes
do the laundry
MAKE
As a whole MAKE is used to indicate an activity in the sense of creation and production
Ex:
Make a choice
make a date
make an excuse
make progress
make a suggestion
make noise
make money
make a decision
make lunch/ dinner
make plans
make a phone call
DO can be used to replace verbs mentioned before in the sentence or dialogue.
- Hey, you broke my toy
- No, I didn´t do it (do = break)
DO also can be used to replace more specific verbs
- He is doing 110km/h on the road (doing = driving)
- I did latim when I was in college (did = studied)
Here there are some exercises to you study and practice this.
