Dinner In Another Language Tonight
Brazilian friends had me over for dinner tonight. Whew...I maybe got 10% of the Portuguese when they were in full speed!
They were very nice, and would include me now and again (and slow way down)...but wow!
Fun though, and I need to practice! I feel like I'm closing in on another level.
*One of them asked what I thought about Trump. I don't have the words in Portuguese to express my disgust for Jabba. All I knew to say was that I don't like him.*
I consider it a mark of honor to have someone from another country, who doesn't speak my language almost at all, to say that "He is very good people". -- "He's a very good person". This is a message that my friend sent me after I left about a comment that one of his friends made about me.
