In this episode, you’ll learn how to make requests.
For example, asking where the train station is, how much the apples cost, and who is the manager. I’m giving you more complex sentence structures here, but you can use them on different occasions and are very polite. Also, they force you to practice different grammar aspects.
In this episode, I want to talk a little about how to answer yes and no questions (closed questions).
Now you’re thinking, well, that doesn’t sound too complicated. Just answer sim or não. The truth is that we don’t answer with yes that often. This doesn’t mean we always answer with não, this means there’s a different structure you can use if you want to answer in the affirmative.
You’ll learn the pronunciation of cities, towns, and islands in Portugal.
This is a long list, in alphabetical order, but naturally doesn’t include everything. If you ever wondered how to correctly pronounce the city or town where you live in, that you visited last time you were in Portugal or that you’re going to visit again soon, then lookout for it.
Even if you’re not interested in any of these locations, it’s good pronunciation practice!
