Did you go to Brazil?

Yes! Currently waiting at a dead airport for my next flight back home in 4 hours. But hey, I can order food to the gate, look at that

Are you going to write about it?

Mhh, I hope so!

I can see you know how to pick good places. What's the Portuguese word you learned in Brazil?

Floresta means Forest! (And it’s named like that because it uses Merkle trees a lot.)

I also remember someone tried to say “head and shoulders” in English, and I understood “Heil Hitler”, that was so good, hahaha

😂🤣

Great word, it’s really similar to English. One word foreigners pick up a lot is 'gringo' (/ˈɡrɪŋ.ɡəʊ/), which is slang for a foreigner!

I already learned gringo on SN here!

Ohh, and I learned women say “obrigada”, not “obrigado”. Very interesting!

Nice! 'Gringo' is also used by Spanish speakers, yes.
