| Olá! Hello, this is Jade Furuta. Welcome to Portuguese weekly words. Our theme today is At the movies in Portuguese “No cinema.” |
| ator means “actor” |
| Esse é o meu ator favorito. |
| This is my favorite actor. I like Nicholas Cage, Zac Efron, Leonardo di Caprio. |
| atriz “actress“ |
| Eu quero ser uma atriz. |
| I want to be an actress. |
| That is true, I like Penelope Cruz. I used to get that I look like her a lot. She always does so many amazing movies. Another Latino actress, Sofia Vergara, she is so funny and her accent is just amazing. Yeah I like those two actresses. |
| diretor “director” |
| Esse é um diretor de filme famoso. |
| This is a famous movie director. |

| filme. Easy, “film, movie” |
| O meu filme predileto é "Wicker Park.” |
| My favorite movie is “Wicker Park.” |
| It’s a suspense mixed with a little bit of Romance. It’s that kind of movie that you have to really squeeze your brain. |
| Um filme muito, muito bom. A very, very good movie. Actually two days ago, I watched Maleficent yeah. Oh my god! I have no words. It’s like, uh, like I haven’t seen such a great movie in a long time and I am super picky about movies. Definitely one of my favorite movies now. You should watch it. |
| And that’s it! Acabamos por hoje. We are finished for today. Muito obrigada por assistir! Thank you for watching. Have a great day. Um beijo grande. Tchau tchau! |

Olá Tomek,
You are right. Our team will definitely consider both of your feedback when designing our future materials. Obrigado!

Respectfully, I'd have to agree with Kam. 4 out of the 5 words are nearly exactly the same in English. So anyone who hasn't studied a second of Portuguese would already understand those words. There should be at least 10 new words that aren't easily understood to the English ear.
Olá Kam,
Thanks for posting.
We appreciate your feedback and will certainly take it into consideration for our classes.
Please also check out this lesson about movies, which we hope you enjoy :wink:

Half of this video is Jade talking in ENGLISH about her favourite movies/actors. Very boring and does nothing to help us learn portuguese.
