A Sopa da Diana

A group of friends are about to go see a movie. Before they leave, Diana decides to make dinner for everyone, despite not being a very good cook… Take note of how regular -ar verbs (such as chegar, começar, cozinhar, ajudar, cortar, etc.) are conjugated in the present tense (presente do indicativo) throughout the dialogue. Remember that in Portuguese, depending on the context, the present tense can be used to talk about an action that happens regularly, that is happening right now, or that will happen in the immediate future. You’ll also learn lots of useful conversational phrases, so don’t forget to check the Expressions tab to add them to your Smart Review. 🙂
