  • “É aquela coisa que faz as flores crescerem, não é?”

    Por favor, há pouco me atire agora!!

    🙂

    • Hahaha, é bom ver que continuas a ouvir o podcast, Paul! Espero que esteja tudo bem com as tuas abelhas… já falas com elas em português? 🙂

      • I never miss an episode, Joel. As abelhas estão muito boas mas querem primavera agora! Até lá, não faz(em) mel! 🙂

  • I loved this podcast, obrigada. One of my ongoing difficulties is with tenses. I have worked my way through the units but I struggle to retain the verbs. ie I can work through the verb exercises but when it comes down to auditory comprehension and even reading podcasts I lose the tenses. Currently I try to listen and read the podcast totally in PT and to then translate to English and to then compare with your translation. I hope that doing this most days will help me but would it be possible to have some units in specific tenses. e.g we have had a few present tense verbs, could we have past tense, furture tense.
    Thanks guys.

  • Enjoyed I am a big fan of Ronaldo for many years. Saw him play twice in the US. You guys did a good job!!
    In the vocabulary section, could you repeat the word,as these are new ones for us.
    Obrigada,
    Olivia

  • Question… At around 9:20 Rui says “Queres que eu repita…” I’m trying to figure out the conjugation of “repetir” in this case. Is it because it’s conditional?
