Descrição
In this video, we explore the Portuguese relationship with time and some of the most common everyday expressions you’ll hear in real conversations. What does “Já vou” actually mean? Does “agora” always mean exactly “now”? How long is “daqui a pouco”? And when someone says “depois”, should you expect a specific time? We’ll also talk about the idea that Portuguese people are always late, is that actually true, or is there something more interesting going on with the way time is communicated in everyday Portuguese?
