  • “Tratar de” always confuses me. Seems to be used so many different ways, like in the description of this lesson. Uma dias dessas vou falar Portuguese melhor.

  • “No tempo da expansão Persa, por volta do século VII depois de Cristo, numa zona da
    Europa, hoje conhecida como Dinamarca, havia um príncipe Persa chamado Jamil, que juntamente
    com as suas tropas guerreava para conquistar aquele território.” – Percebi corretamente que esta frase é uma piada?

    • Olá! Toda esta história é uma lenda popular, da qual existem diferentes versões. Então, mesmo não sendo exatamente uma piada, não é certo que tenha muitos elementos verdadeiros 🙂
