Again a very interesting and amusing text (Natal e o Ano Novo)! It’s a joy hearing the spoken Portuguese and reading the text carefully. Much of the grammar I learnt in the past, now comes to life in a very natural way. A língua portuguesa é uma verdadeira obra de arte.
Feliz Ano Novo!
Feliz Ano Novo e muito obrigada pelos eposodios durante o ano.
It was excellent as usual. Lots of vocab! You guys make it fun to listen and learn, as there is good chemistry between the two of you. Muito obrigado!
Excellent material. Why not have a check mark space to show how many times one has listened to each recording. It would help in keeping track of the lessons.
Excellent episode! Thanks so much guys I really enjoyed this one.
Palm grenade!
