Pedro- Funcionário: Olá, bom dia. Em que posso ajudá-la? Employee: Hello, good morning. How can I help you?
- Maria: Bom dia. Recebi uma carta a avisar-me que um artigo remetido para mim ficou retido na alfândega. Maria: Good morning. I received a letter notifying me that an item sent to me has been retained at customs.
- Funcionário: Deixe-me ver a carta, tem aí? Employee: Let me see the letter, do you have it?
- Maria: Aqui tem. Maria: Here you go.
- Funcionário: Sabe o valor do artigo? Employee: Do you know the price of the item?
- Maria: Desculpe? O artigo é uma prenda enviada pela minha tia, que está no Canadá. Maria: Excuse me? The item is a gift sent by my aunt who is in Canada.
- Não, não sei o valor, nem faço ideia do que possa ser! No, I don't know the price, I have no idea what it could be!
