Aside from
fundraising, we need to make sure we can connect with locals once we get to
Brazil. A no-brainer right?
However, the
majority of us don't speak a lick of Portuguese - which is where one of our
advisors, Ojana comes in! A native Brazilian, she is helping us learn some
Portuguese at the end of our weekly meetings. This will be a huge help once we
get to Brazil - hopefully we can all get the hang of the basics before May!
Fancy learning
some yourself? Check out these helpful phrases:
Como você se
chama?/ Qual é o seu nome? - What is your name?
Eu me chamo
Sarah/Meu nome é Sarah. - My name is Sarah.
Eu sou bonita -
I am pretty.
Tu és chata -
You are boring.
Ele/Ela/Você é
inteligente - He/She/You are smart.
Nós somos preguiçosos
- We are lazy.
Vós sois gentis
- You are kind.
Eles são engraçados
- They are funny.
Congratulations!
You now know a little Portuguese!
