Braden: Ready to watch a big game?
Ricardo: Jogão? O seu time vai perder de goleada.
Braden: Big game? Your team is going to get routed.
João: Eita! Não fique tão confiante assim. O jogo nem começou ainda.
Braden: What! Don't be so confident. The game hasn't even started.
Ricardo: Mas vai perder sim. Não esqueça que seu time nunca ganhou do meu.
Braden: But you're going to lose. Don't forget that your team has never beaten mine.
João: E como eu vou esquecer? Você não deixa.
Braden: How could I forget? You won't let me.
Ricardo: Você trouxe a cerveja?
Braden: Did you bring the beer?
João: Trouxe.
Braden: Yep.

Braden: I can't. My wife asked me to come home early.
Ricardo: Pra que? Hoje é sabado! O que você tem pra fazer hoje que é mais importante que o jogo?
Braden: What for? Today is Saturday! What do you have to do today that's more important than the game?
João: Íamos ao cinema. Tem um filme romântico que ela quer assistir.
Braden: We were going to go to the movies. There's a romantic film that she wants to watch.
POST CONVERSATION BANTER
Braden: (ask --- something about the dialogue-Peter always does a little review about the previous lessons. explain what you are thinking about the storyline in the lesson, so the students can follow and participate - don't make them guess.)
---: response
Braden: so there are a lot of flat screens in Brazil.
---: Well,usually the friend or family member with the biggest TV is where everybody goes to watch the game.
Braden: That's right. This is very normal and for the most part welcome in Brazil. Brazilians enjoy being in large groups and having their friends around and for some people, like some grandparents, it's nearly a weekly tradition
---: This varies a bit by region but especially in southern Brazil, the "Sunday" meal is churrasco.
Braden: (Football parties, ever been to one?-describe a saturday one.)

VOCAB AND PHRASE USAGE
Braden: Let's have a closer look at the usuage for some of the words and phrases from this lesson.
---: The first phrase we'll look at is perder de goleada.
Braden: Perder is the Portuguese verb for "to lose" and goleada is a soccer term that means lots of goals.
---: So, perder de goleada means "to lose by a lot" or "to lose by many points."
Braden: could you break this down?
---: (break down)
Braden: what's our next phrase?
---: The next phrase we'll look at is segundo tempo. Segundo tempo literally translates to second time but it means "second half" as in second half of the game.
Braden: could you break this down?
---: (break down)
Braden: what's our next phrase?
---: The next phrase we'll look at is minha mulher
Braden: Okay so, Minha mulher literally translates to "my woman."
---: but that phrase isn't as offensive in Portuguese as it is in English.
Braden: That's right. Calling your wife your "mulher" is a very common if a bit old. For example, in the Bible, Adam and Eve are titled as marido e mulher or "husband and woman."
---: So in this sense, mulher also means wife.
Braden: could you break this down?
---: (break down)

Lesson focus

Braden: So ---, what's the focus of this lesson?
---: The focus of this lesson is Stem Changing verbs. In the dialogue, we heard the phrase "Eita! Não fique tão confiante assim. O jogo nem começou ainda."
Braden: Which we translated as "What! Don't be so confident. The game hasn't even started."
---: Okay, in this sentence two verbs have stem changes, the ficar and the começar.
Braden: That's right. The spelling of a verb stem must sometimes be altered to preserve its sound in te various persons. These orthographic changes come when the conjugations require certain sounds to come before the original stem spelling.
---: Okay so there are way to many to just start listing in the audio
Braden: Yeah, it would be like going through the alphabet and since this one is pretty focused on spelling, it really is better that you follow along with the PDF. But we'll go through 2 from each so you can get the idea.
---: okay so there are two conditinos when you might need to do a spelling change. When verbs that end in car, gar, or çar and the stem comes before an "e" after the verb is conjugated then specific things happen.
Braden: Right. So, when you have a car verb like ficar which is what was used in the dialogue, a "que" replaces the c. so you have ficar - f-i-c-a-r conjugated to the command form which makes it fique. f-i-c-e
---: But in Portuguese, any time a "c" is followed by an "e" then the "c" is pronounced a "ss." So, to preserve the "k" sound - which is very important - the c is replaced by qu. So, fique is actually spelled f-i-q-u-e, not f-i-c-e.
Braden: Okay so following the same pattern, with verbs than end it gar in their infinitive form a gu replaces the g when they preceed an "e."
---: And a "c" replaces a "ç."
Braden: When followed by an "e"
---: okay so the verb ficar is one example, which becomes fique. Another would be brigar which is a gar verb and becomes brigue - b-r-i-g-u-e. And last would be a çar verb
Braden: Right. So in the dialouge the verb começar was used. So it changes from começar with a "ç" to comece without the "ç." So comece is spelled, c-o-m-e-c-e not c-o-m-e-ç-e.
---: Right. The other rule is when certain verbs are followed by o or a. When verbs end in cer a "ç" replaces "c." and when the verb ends in gir a j relpaces the g.
Braden: Could you give us some examples?
---: One common verb ending in cer is descer which means to descend, go down. So, when the conjugation you are using ends in a or o then the c needs to change to "ç". so descer to the first person present becomes "desço." spelled d-e-s-ç-o or command form would be "desçamos."
Braden: Notice the s and ç right after each other. It doesn't really mean anything special, just so that you know it is possible.
---: One common verb ending in gir is corrigir which means to correct. So, when the conjugation you are using ends in a or o then the g needs to change to "j". so corrigir to the first person present becomes "corrijo." spelled "c-o-r-r-i-j-o" or command form would be "c-o-r-r-i-j-a-m-o-s."
Braden: Just a side comment, I've never actually heard anyone say "corrijamos" (have you?)
---: Okay so this one is about writing so it would be very beneficial for you to get that PDF and examine it closely.
Braden: Yeah there are many more examles and some sample sntences there fore yo uas well. That just about does it for this lesson.
---: Thanks for listening!~
