Ele te fala que tem 36 anos. Voc\u00ea est\u00e1 surpreso, pois parece que ele \u00e9 dez anos mais jovem. Voc\u00ea diz:<\/p>\n<p><em>I would have guessed that you were in your mid-twenties.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Vamos estudar essa frase agora:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>I would have guessed that (ora\u00e7\u00e3o)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Quando voc\u00ea n\u00e3o tem certeza de algo, voc\u00ea pode fazer uma estimativa:<\/p>\n<p><em>I would guess that you&#8217;re about 25 years old.<\/em><br \/>\nEu diria que voc\u00ea tem mais ou menos 25 anos.<\/p>\n<p>Mas depois que voc\u00ea fica sabendo, n\u00e3o d\u00e1 para fazer mais a estimativa. Por\u00e9m, voc\u00ea pode falar sobre o que voc\u00ea teria pensado, se tivesse feito a estimativa:<\/p>\n<p><em>A: He&#8217;s from France.<\/em><br \/>\n<em> B: Really? I wouldn&#8217;t have guessed that.<\/em><br \/>\nA: Ele \u00e9 da Fran\u00e7a.<br \/>\nB: \u00c9 mesmo? Eu n\u00e3o teria pensado nisso.<\/p>\n<p><em>Wow. I would have guessed that it would be a lot more expensive than this.<\/em><br \/>\nNossa. Eu teria pensado que seria muito mais caro que isso.<\/p>\n<p><em>I would have guessed that they would have had difficulty beating Amazon&#8217;s prices.<\/em><br \/>\nEu teria pensado que eles teriam tido dificuldade em cobrir o pre\u00e7o da Amazon.<\/p>\n<p>A gram\u00e1tica dessa frase \u00e9 um pouco complicada, mas vamos dar uma outra olhada. A parte da ora\u00e7\u00e3o que vem depois do &#8220;that&#8221; \u00e9 algo que est\u00e1 no passado e \u00e9 imagin\u00e1rio. Veja alguns exemplos:<\/p>\n<p><em>He is in his mid-20&#8217;s.<\/em> (Ele est\u00e1 na casa dos 20.)<br \/>\n<em>I would have guessed that you were in your mid-20&#8217;s.<\/em> (Eu acharia que voc\u00ea estava na casa dos vinte.)<\/p>\n<p><em>He will be late.<\/em> (Ele vai se atrasar.)<br \/>\n<em>I would have guessed that you would be late. <\/em>(Eu acharia que voc\u00ea iria se atrasar.)<\/p>\n<p><em>She has never fired a gun.<\/em> (Ela nunca usou uma arma.)<br \/>\n<em>I would have guessed that you had never fired a gun.<\/em> (Eu teria achado que voc\u00ea nunca tinha usado uma arma.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>(someone) is in (their) mid-(twenties\/thirties\/forties\/etc.)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Geralmente n\u00e3o sabemos, ou n\u00e3o ligamos, para a idade exata de algu\u00e9m.
