Tax Identification Number

Clark visits the local Loja do Cidadão to get his NIF (Portuguese tax number). He has to wait a while,...
  • Clark: Bem, tanta gente! Espero que não estejam cá todos para o mesmo. Onde é que se tira a senha...? Clark: Wow, so many people! I hope they're not all here for the same thing. Where do you get the ticket...?
  • Ah, é aqui. Finanças, é isto. Estão quatro pessoas à minha frente… não está mau. Ah, here it is. Finances, this is it. There are four people in front of me… not bad.
  • Parece que tive sorte… I guess I got lucky…
  • ... ...
  • Que azar o meu! What bad luck [of mine]!
  • Se as outras três pessoas demorarem tanto como esta, não saio daqui hoje! If the other three people take as long as this one, I won't get out of here today!
  • Ainda bem que a Loja do Cidadão tem WiFi. Se bem que, por este andar, ainda fico sem bateria. It's a good thing that the Citizen's Store has WiFi. Although, at this rate, my phone's going to run out of battery.

  • My first comment after 3 months or so. Moved to Algarve 5 weeks ago. I try and do at least 30 minutes per day on language learning. PP is really fun. Cheers Tony 🍻

  • I absolutely love these practice audios at the different levels – love the different features (vocabulary, transcript) and the quiz for testing comprehension!
    Thanks team
