Great story, Luciana! Thanks for sharing!

I agree, Camille’s anecdote was definitely one of the best we’ve had so far in Language Learning Gets Personal.

I teach Brazilian Portuguese, and often tell my college students and private clients to embrace these stories and be proud of them. YouTube subscriber once asked me to do a video on similar Portuguese words that meant very different things. He had just asked his girlfriend if she was done cleaning her behind. He meant her kitchen 🙂

Camille, I was happy to hear you like the sound of Brazilian Portuguese!
