Lesson Transcript

Hi everyone! I’m Alisha.
Welcome to Conversational Phrases!
We’ve found that the best way to learn a language is to speak it from day one! And the best way to start speaking is to learn phrases that you’ll use in real conversations.
In this lesson, you’ll learn conversational phrases to answer the question, "What are you doing?" After watching this video, you’ll be able to answer this question and tell someone something about what you’re writing.
Now, let’s take a look at some conversational phrases!
Listen to the dialogue.
O que você está fazendo?
Eu estou escrevendo meu diário.
Once more with the English translation.
O que você está fazendo?
“What are you doing?”
Eu estou escrevendo meu diário.
“I'm writing my journal.”
First of all you'll need to learn how to say “What are you doing?”
That's: O que você está fazendo?
Listen to it again: O que você está fazendo?, O que você está fazendo?
“What are you doing?”
Now, how do you answer this question?
The pattern is:
Eu estou escrevendo [object].
“I'm writing [object].”
For example:
“I'm writing my journal.”
Eu estou escrevendo meu diário., Eu estou escrevendo meu diário.
