      I have only spent 3 months in Brazil 🇧🇷 my whole life. But I love the language, culture, and people. I read all the novels written by Jorge Amado and listened to MPB countless hours... that is why... obrigado

    Do you find it difficult to switch languages like that? I have learned Spanish for 2 years and Thai for 1 year. Once I speak Spanish, my Thai is gone and vice versus.

    Hey Tim, excelent conversation!
    Realmente não vejo muita utilidade em aprender "gírias" em um idioma. Sendo brasileira nunca os utilizo. Há alguns países que as tem de modo mais incorporado ao cotidiano, mas mesmo aqui é apenas uma linguagem extremamente ofensiva e voltada para as ruas, ou jovens bem despojados.
    Em termos de regionalismos brasileiros, que não tem a ver com as tais gírias, acredito que o mais difícil de um estrangeiro compreender é o proveniente de pessoas gaúchas, especialmente do interior do 'rio grande do sul', não sei se conheces.
    Fortíssimo abç

      LOL you mean my dear friends Richard and Luca... we know each other for years and meet often. As for languages we all 3 share many Western languages, but I live most my life in Japan and am a Japanese citizen using Asian languages for more than 40 years (Japanese, Chinese, Thai, Lao, Vietnamese, Korean, Nepali, Indonesian/Malay... that is were we differ... I am much older than Richard and Luca so I have had more time to learn.

      That's great to hear but I would rather speak less languages at a very high level than speak more languages just to impress. I learnt languages to pick up women now I use them to preach Christ and it is amazing how much the Holy Spirit helps in reminding you stuff and facilitating language learning like he did on day of Pentecost@@polyglotdreams

      Butchering might be a bit overstated, it's understandable, but e.g. your x, j, q initals are wrong, -ue final is wrong (in 学) and tones overall a little wonky. Definitely better than the other guy though.

      Perhaps it was a bit overstated, but your pronunciation definitely needs quite a bit of work if your goal is to sound natural. But it is at least comprehensible, which is the most important thing.
