Having the dialogue at the end of the unit is a great idea!
Was that Joel playing Hugo and Rui playing Tiago with his voice speeded up
Haha, you’re half correct. Rui plays Tiago, but Hugo is our friend and collaborator, Joseph without any voice alteration.
He must be squeeky!
Wow! I was sure you were playing Hugo, Joel!!
I agree with walshbuild.. These dialogues are really great for consolidating what has been presented in the learning units.
It’s a great program, guys!
The child’s voice is extremely cute haha! Thanks for the incredible lesson! You consolidate all the lessons beautifully!!
Hi, just get the hang of when to use formal or informal verb tenses. Why does the father Hugo, address his young son Tiago, using the formal conjugation of the verb?
Sorry, i should have said only when using the verbs Tomar (toma), and Vestir (veste)!
Hi there! This is tricky because those verbs are actually in the imperative mood, which is a different conjugation used for commands. So you are actually seeing the informal imperative conjugation when he is giving an instruction to Tiago such as “Take it” or “Put it on”. This topic won’t come up until later in this unit: The Imperative, but it was hard to avoid in a dialogue like this! So now you have a little preview. 🙂
Thanks for your reply Molly, that explains it, sort of! No worries, grammar is never easy, makes you wonder what type of sadist invented it
Congrats on an amazing website. I’m really enjoying using it. One suggestion / request: for the vocabulary sections of the shorties (which is all I’ve used so far), it would be great if the gender of the nouns was shown. Thank you again for making this wonderful resource.
Why not “estou a usar-lo” with the inf.?
Olá, Steffen. The “R” is dropped when you add a clitic pronoun – it’s just how the language has evolved.
I first watched with the video, which was a nice change but kind of felt like cheating as i breezed through the quiz👍😁 I didn’t notice the link for the shorties (audio only) until the end. Oh well. Great job!
Penso que aprendi a usar o verbo “calçar” quando falamos de meias e sapatos. Aqui, o pai usa “pôr”. Então podemos usar os dois? Não é tão importante?
É correto usar ‘calçar’ especificamente para meias, sapatos e luvas. Por outro lado, ‘pôr’ pode ser usado para todo o tipo de roupa e acessórios, pelo que é uma alternativa usada com muita frequência. Portanto sim, as duas palavras podem ser usadas sem problema 🙂
