00:01:20,265 –> 00:01:23,338

{{R: And this podcast might be a little bit longer,}}

42
00:02:22,321 –> 00:02:29,484

{{on February 18, and we went to Canada one month earlier,}}

exatamente no momento em que o vírus surgiu na China, o coronavírus.
{{exactly at the moment that the virus appeared in China, the coronavirus.}}

{{J: Yes, I remember us being at the airport and seeing the screens broadcasting the news.}}

Eu vi uma peça sobre o coronavírus.
{{I saw a piece on the coronavirus.}}

00:03:02,428 –> 00:03:06,028
que saísse da China e que fosse para o resto do mundo,
{{that it would get out of China and spread to the rest of the world,}}

51
00:03:06,029 –> 00:03:08,739
mas como era na China e nós estávamos a ir para o Canadá,
{{but since it was in China and we were going to Canada,}}

52
00:03:08,739 –> 00:03:12,152
nunca pensámos que isto ia crescer como cresceu.
{{we never thought that this would grow as it did.}}

00:03:12,152 –> 00:03:16,552
Mas isto só para dizer que então, em janeiro, fomos para o Canadá.
{{But this is just to say that in January, we went to Canada.}}

54
00:03:17,377 –> 00:03:21,647
À medida que o mês de janeiro passou e o início de fevereiro também,
{{As the month of January and early February went by,}}

55
00:03:21,647 –> 00:03:24,780
a coisa do vírus começou a tornar-se mais séria
{{the virus thing started getting more serious,}}

56
00:03:24,841 –> 00:03:28,319
e, quando a nossa filha nasceu, o vírus já estava noutros países.
{{and when our daughter was born, the virus was already in other countries.}}

57
00:03:28,327 –> 00:03:32,123
J: Foi um pouco esquisito, porque havia esta coisa horrível no mundo
{{J: It was a bit strange, because there was this horrible thing in the world}}

58
00:03:32,123 –> 00:03:35,690
a acontecer ao mesmo tempo ‘dum’ [que um] milagre na nossa vida.
{{happening at the same time as a miracle in our lives.}}

59
00:03:35,690 –> 00:03:43,341
R: Sim. ‘távamos super felizes porque tínhamos a nossa filha nos braços, recém-nascida,
{{R: Yes. We were super happy because we had our daughter in our arms, newborn,}}

60
00:03:43,341 –> 00:03:47,987
e, ao mesmo tempo, preocupados com o que se passava no mundo com isto do vírus.
{{and, at the same time, worried about what was going on in the world with this virus.}}

61
00:03:47,987 –> 00:03:52,578
Também preocupados em saber como voltaríamos para Portugal,
{{We were also worried about finding out how we would get back to Portugal,}}

62
00:03:52,578 –> 00:03:58,682
porque entretanto, começaram a fechar as fronteiras, começaram a cancelar voos.
{{because in the meantime, they started closing the borders, they started cancelling flights.}}

63
00:03:58,944 –> 00:04:02,742
J: Voltámos em… dia 22 de março, e poucos dias depois,
{{J: We came back on… March 22, and a few days later,}}

64
00:04:02,742 –> 00:04:06,776
eles começaram a cancelar os voos. Então, no fim desse mês,
{{they started cancelling flights. So, by the end of that month,}}

65
00:04:06,777 –> 00:04:10,436
já não havia voos diretos do Canadá para Portugal.
{{there were no more direct flights from Canada to Portugal.}}

66
00:04:10,436 –> 00:04:14,587
Então tivemos imensa sorte com o timing de tudo o que aconteceu.
{{So we were immensely lucky with the timing of everything that happened.}}

67
00:04:14,588 –> 00:04:18,581
R: Sim, voltámos para Portugal quando ela tinha um mês.
{{R: Yes, we came back to Portugal when she was one month old.}}

68
00:04:18,581 –> 00:04:21,910
Esperámos um mês no Canadá e voltámos no fim de março, exatamente.
{{We waited for a month in Canada and we returned at the end of March, exactly.}}

69
00:04:21,910 –> 00:04:25,753
E quando chegámos a Portugal, já era a loucura com o coronavírus.
{{And when we arrived to Portugal, things were already crazy with the coronavirus.}}

70
00:04:25,760 –> 00:04:27,910
J: Toda a gente a usar máscaras na rua…
{{J: Everybody wearing masks on the street…}}

71
00:04:27,910 –> 00:04:31,710
R: Cafés fechados, ginásios fechados, escolas fechadas…
{{R: Closed cafés, closed gyms, closed schools…}}

72
00:04:31,735 –> 00:04:33,741
Então, é estranho para quem foi pai há pouco tempo –
{{So, it’s weird for someone who was a father recently -}}

73
00:04:33,741 –> 00:04:37,743
eu não sei se temos ouvintes que também foram pais neste período –
{{I don’t know if we have listeners who also became parents over this period -}}

74
00:04:38,438 –> 00:04:42,654
e, de certeza, que para outros que já foram pais, e os bebés são novos,
{{and surely, for others who had already become parents and have young babies,}}

75
00:04:42,654 –> 00:04:47,082
também deve ser estranho, porque temos esta alegria de ser pais,
{{it must be weird too, because we have this joy of being parents,}}

76
00:04:47,082 –> 00:04:52,025
queremos passear, queremos sair à rua e não podemos. Temos de estar em quarentena…
{{we want to walk around, we want to go out to the street and we can’t. We have to be in quarantine…}}

77
00:04:52,025 –> 00:04:55,602
J: Sim, mas para dizer a verdade, eu não sei se a nossa vida
{{J: Yes, but to say the truth, I don’t know if our life}}

78
00:04:55,587 –> 00:04:58,541
seria muito diferente nesse aspeto,
{{would be very different in that regard,}}

79
00:04:58,541 –> 00:05:01,682
porque também queríamos passar muito tempo em casa com ela.
{{because we also wanted to spend a lot of time at home with her.}}

80
00:05:01,682 –> 00:05:04,423
R: É verdade. Por um lado, a vida não seria diferente,
{{R: That’s true. On the one hand, life wouldn’t be different,}}

81
00:05:04,423 –> 00:05:08,148
porque ‘este’ [esta] é a altura ideal para estar em casa, não é? Com um recém-nascido.
{{because this is the ideal time to be at home, right? With a newborn.}}

82
00:05:08,148 –> 00:05:11,701
É a altura ideal para fazer quarentena, porque nós queremos estar em casa.
{{It’s the ideal time to quarantine, because we want to be home.}}

83
00:05:11,701 –> 00:05:17,451
Mas teríamos visitas de amigos, familiares e, infelizmente, por causa do vírus,
{{But we would’ve had visits from friends, relatives, and unfortunately, because of the virus,}}

84
00:05:17,451 –> 00:05:22,806
ela ainda não conheceu amigos, ainda não conheceu a família…
{{she still hasn’t met friends, she still hasn’t met family…}}

85
00:05:22,806 –> 00:05:27,242
Essa parte é um pouco estranha, não poder partilhá-la com as pessoas de quem gostamos
{{That part is a bit strange, not being able to share her with the people we like}}

86
00:05:27,242 –> 00:05:29,976
e que estão tão curiosas para conhecê-la.
{{and who are so curious to meet her.}}

87
00:05:30,028 –> 00:05:33,926
J: E por enquanto, decidimos que não vamos usar o nome dela,
{{J: And for now, we’ve decided that we’re not going to use her name,}}

88
00:05:33,926 –> 00:05:39,261
porque não sabemos exatamente se devíamos usar o nome dela no futuro neste projeto.
{{because we don’t know exactly if we should use her name in the future on this project.}}

89
00:05:39,261 –> 00:05:44,273
R: Somos grandes celebridades! Vamos ver.
{{R: We’re big celebrities! Let’s see.}}

90
00:05:44,273 –> 00:05:45,374
J: Temos que ter cuidado.
{{J: We have to be careful.}}

91
00:05:45,374 –> 00:05:49,037
R: Eu acho que ela ainda pode vir a ser uma grande ajuda no projeto
{{R: I think she might still come to be a big help in the project}}

92
00:05:49,037 –> 00:05:51,643
para ensinar os membros bebés.
{{to teach baby members.}}

93
00:05:51,643 –> 00:05:53,479
J: Ela pode usar um nome falso.
{{J: She can use a fake name.}}

94
00:05:53,520 –> 00:05:54,858
R: Tipo um nome artístico?
{{R: Like an artistic name?}}

95
00:05:54,874 –> 00:05:55,408
J: Yeah!
{{J: Yeah!}}

96
00:05:57,495 –> 00:06:01,382
R: Mas quem sabe, um dia ela vai ajudar-nos com vídeos
{{R: But who knows, one day she’ll help us with videos}}

97
00:06:01,382 –> 00:06:04,918
e ajudar-nos a ensinar português.
{{and help us to teach Portuguese.}}

98
00:06:04,919 –> 00:06:09,012
J: E também temos imensa sorte, porque temos uma boa equipa
{{J: And we’re also immensely lucky, because we have a good team}}

99
00:06:09,012 –> 00:06:11,489
que nos tem ajudado este tempo todo.

100
00:06:11,489 –> 00:06:15,594

{{J: Eliana, Alex, who is our programmer.}}

{{Molly is the American whom you’ve already heard in a podcast, and she’s been helping with many things,}}

104
00:06:25,631 –> 00:06:28,316
incluindo lançar os shorties diários.
{{including launching the daily shorties.}}

105
00:06:28,316 –> 00:06:33,464
E acho que também devíamos dizer que esperamos que os nossos ouvintes
{{And I think we should also say that we hope that our listeners}}

106
00:06:33,465 –> 00:06:40,513
e as suas famílias estejam em boa saúde e boa… como se diz? Boa mente.

109
00:06:49,482 –> 00:06:51,857
J: E esperamos que fiquem em casa.

110
00:06:51,873 –> 00:06:56,930

{{R: And that you’re dealing well with this situation and this isolation.}}

111
00:06:56,930 –> 00:07:01,285
Que não estejam a enlouquecer em casa, que encontrem muitas atividades,
{{That you’re not going crazy at home, that you find lots of activities,}}

112
00:07:01,285 –> 00:07:07,202

{{like for example, studying Portuguese, making banana bread… ‘pão de banana’!}}

113
00:07:07,202 –> 00:07:10,657
J: Nós podemos continuar a trabalhar em Practice Portuguese,
{{J: We can continue working on Practice Portuguese,}}

114
00:07:10,657 –> 00:07:16,752
porque todos os nossos colaboradores trabalham à distância, em teletrabalho.
{{because all of our collaborators work remotely, from home.}}

115
00:07:16,752 –> 00:07:22,198
Então, não tem sido um grande ajuste para nós, mas nós sabemos que muitos ouvintes
{{So, it hasn’t been a big adjustment for us, but we know that many listeners}}

{{don’t have that luck and are probably being affected financially.}}

117
00:07:27,149 –> 00:07:32,700
E eu acho que estou a começar a ouvir alguns barulhos lá do ‘berciário’. Como chamei, berçário?
{{And I think I’m starting to hear some noises from the ‘berciário’. What did I call it, ‘berçário’?}}

118
00:07:32,700 –> 00:07:33,502
R: Berçário.
{{R: Nursery.}}

119
00:07:33,515 –> 00:07:36,823
