Review session
Cross the words you just met, clued in English. Slower than a drill, and it sticks harder.
Pop the words you just met by matching each one to its meaning. A couple of rounds and the batch is yours.
Grammar primer
English manages with two distances. Portuguese insists on three: near me, near you, and far from both of us.
Estar plus the -ndo form says what is happening at this moment. Brazil says estou falando; Portugal says estou a falar.
Five words and no word-order fight: the question word does the work and the rest of the sentence stays put.
Ter que for what you have to do, precisar for what you need, and dever for what you should. Three verbs you already know, one new job each.
Read a story
A graded reader written inside the top 300 words. Every word in it is one the course has already taught.
