S02:E26 - We Work

Author: Carioca Connection March 20, 2018 Duration: 11:45

Alexia and I work online. That means we can work from more or less wherever we want. Awesome, right? Well, most of the time. Sometimes it can be lonely and isolating. That's why we have gotten really into co-working spaces, most notably WeWork. Even if you don't work remotely, this is a fascinating topic that is changing the way we work and find community. And of course, lots of awesome Brazilian Portuguese.

2023 is the year to improve your Portuguese! Come join us in the Carioca Connection Club.

Há uma diferença enorme entre o português dos livros e a língua que se fala nas ruas do Rio de Janeiro, nos cafés de São Paulo ou nas praias do Nordeste. É nesse espaço, entre a teoria e a prática, que o Carioca Connection-Brazilian Portuguese Conversation se encontra. Alexia, uma carioca de fato, e Foster, que está aprendendo o idioma, não dão aulas formais. Em vez disso, eles simplesmente conversam. Os episódios giram em torno das situações do dia a dia, dos planos para o fim de semana, de uma ida ao mercado ou de uma memória de infância, tudo travado num diálogo natural e descontraído. Ouvir essa troca é como ter um assento na mesa ao lado em uma lanchonete ou no banco de trás de um carro cheio de amigos. A dinâmica única, com uma falante nativa e um aprendiz em constante evolução, oferece uma perspectiva dupla valiosa: você capta a autenticidade e os nuances da Alexia enquanto acompanha as dúvidas e os momentos de claridade do Foster. Esse podcast é feito para quem cansou de frases robotizadas e quer treinar o ouvido para o ritmo, as gírias e a musicalidade do português brasileiro real. A cada conversa, sua compreensão auditiva se afia e o medo de falar vai diminuindo, substituído pela confiança de quem finalmente está começando a pegar o jeito da coisa.
