Every week we will teach you guys a new Brazilian Portuguese Expression. This week, the expression is “gambiarra". Look for gambiarra on google images, you'll laugh and be amazed at some Brazilian creativity.

Every week we will teach you guys a new Brazilian Portuguese Expression. This week the expression is “embaçado". Portions in Portuguese: André's rap: "Diversão… lazer… Tudo isso custa caro!

Every week we will teach you guys a new Brazilian Portuguese Expression. This week the expression is “bem feito". Let's say that something bad happens to someone as a result of something he / she did. In Portuguese, it is common to use expressions such as “bem feito!“, “bem feito pra você!“, “pega, abestado“, “toma, seu leso“, “acho é pouco!“, “vai, seu besta“, “ché poco!”. Usually, we use expressions like this to show the person that he deserves what happened to him, who knows how he learns a lesson and avoids making the same mistake again. Portions in Portuguese: Guilherme: Bem feito! Quem mandou você não ter ouvido antes? André: OK, beleza. É isso aí gente!

Every week we will teach you guys a new Brazilian Portuguese Expression. This week the expression is “zoar” or "zuar". Some people on reddit made the valid point that the correct spelling is ""zoar"". I agree with that but I also think that the form "zuar" should be learnt even in writing as my experience as a Brazilian using and seeing this expression being used tells me that people use the form "zuar" much more than zoar. I also believe that all languages are alive and are can undergo changes, accept new ways of orthography and new words. Your's truly, André. Portions in Portuguese: André: Guilherme, cê gosta muito de ficar vendo cara forte né, velho? Vídeo de cara forte... Guilherme: Hahaha! Ô cara... já vai começar? André: Haha, cê adora ver vídeo de cara forte né? Guilherme: Não, não... Não gosto não! Guilherme's example: Essa é a situação: eu cheguei no trabalho com uma roupa estranha, e aí o André me viu e começou a me zuar. Então eu disse: Ah, cara! Eu mal cheguei e você já vai me zuar?"

I keep embarrassing my self on those podcasts (but honestly I don't mind). Every week we will teach you guys a new Brazilian Portuguese Expression.

Aí um dos amigos mais descolados diz: "Tá suave, cara..."
