Great shortie!!
My dictionary gives a different spelling: ‘berinjela’.
It’s always written beringela in European Portuguese. Berinjela is an alternative spelling valid only for Brazil 🙂
Ok, so the ´oxford essential portuguese dictionary’ I downloaded is feeding me brasilian spellings… carrumba!
Thanks, paisley
Ahah, caramba, indeed!
So great hearing a conversation between portugese about veganism! SIM SENIORA!!! 🙂
Gosto demais “shorties” sobre o meio ambiente, a natureza e vegan/vegetarian! 🙂

I don’t get the use of Bora in the last line?
Can you clarify please
Olá, Richard. “Bora” is a slang expression. It’s short for “vamos embora” (let’s go). I’ve just added it to the “Expressions” tab for this Shorty. Also, if you’re curious, here’s a Learning Note that covers plenty of Portuguese slang: Portuguese Slang
Muito bom esse material. Parabéns.
