Lesson 48, or Podcast 48 is absolutely full of quirky (for english speakers) expressions. Our characters are at the beach discussing how easy it is to get hornswoggled by an unknown auto-mechanic. I guess we were in the mood for podcasting as it is a little longer than usual.

Our lesson this week brings us back to colloquial, vernacular European Portuguese. This is your typical conversation with a somewhat dodgy auto-mechanic.

Welcome everyone to our European Portuguese lesson 42. This week we start a new conversation as Susana goes to the hairdresser, so a little more formal this time.

In our European Portuguese lesson this week, the 29th, our characters are presented with a typical and delicious, if you ask me, Portuguese meal: "Polvo à lagareiro". If you enjoy fish, proceed.
