Eu sou espanhol e gosto imenso das suas aulas!!!!!
Muito obrigada, Rui e Joel! Fiquei feliz ouvir um novo podcast! Desfrutem cada minuto com a Clarinha ❤️
I’m sure Clara’s speaking English at the end “Da Dad Dad Dada Dad Dad”…..
Negro is not a bad word in English, Joel. But n***** is!
Lovely to hear you two have converstional Portuguese!
I’m looking forward to Practice Portuguese lessons; obrigada!
I’m not sure about elsewhere, but in the U.S., using the word to talk about a historical context is fine, but calling someone a ‘Negro’ is almost always considered offensive.
Lovely podcast, thank you. Could I vote for having more Portuguese from the beginning, please?
Best wishes,
Debbie
Muito obrigada,, Rui & Joel! Sempre fico feliz quando vejo (e ouço) um novo podcast! Gosto de vos ouvir falar em inglês assim como em português :). E sim, concordo que a Clara é a bebe mais bonita que todas!
clara e uma muita linda bebe. Ela vai falar Portugues mais pronto que eu 🙂
Clara is a very lucky little baby to have you 2 as her parents!
I dont think this is A1. Very fast conversation. More or less impossible to understand, atleast for me that only passed half A1
Thanks, we’ll continue to gauge feedback on this! In general, most natural language is not at an A1 level, but we went with A1 for this episode because a lot of the grammar comes up somewhere within A1, and because colours are a topic that are often of interest to someone at the A1 level.
But you’re right, we wouldn’t expect you to understand a whole dialogue when you’re halfway (or even the whole way) through the A1 Units, so don’t be afraid to use the Translate button, and to adjust the speedometer icon to a lower speed. In the early stages of learning, it’s still important to get lots of listening practice, but don’t worry if you can’t make sense of it yet. The A1 Shorties may be better if you want to really dive in and analyze it more.
