Transcript
- Lucas: Hey Luna, welcome back to Learn Portuguese with Fexingo. Luna: Yeah, thanks Lucas. I'm excited — we've done greetings, how are you, even a bakery scene. Lucas: Exactly. And today, we're covering the other end of a conversation. Luna: Oh, saying goodbye? Lucas: Right. Just two tiny phrases. The first one is a general 'bye'. Luna: Okay, lay it on me. Lucas: Adeus. Say it slowly with me: A-de-us. Luna: A-de-us. Lucas: Good. It means 'goodbye' or 'farewell'. Now at normal speed: Adeus. Luna: Adeus. Lucas: Perfect. You got it. Luna: That feels formal though, like you're not sure when you'll see someone again. Lucas: Yeah, exactly. For something more casual, like 'see you later', we use: Até logo. Luna: Até logo. Lucas: Break it down: A-té lo-go. Luna: A-té lo-go. Lucas: Right. 'Até' means 'until', 'logo' means 'soon'. So 'until soon'. Normal speed: Até logo. Luna: Até logo. Lucas: Nice. Let's practice both. I'll say them, you repeat. Adeus. Luna: Adeus. Lucas: Até logo. Luna: Até logo. Lucas: Great. Now, tiny scene. Imagine we're friends hanging out, and I have to leave. Luna: Oh, okay. Let's do it. Lucas: Hey Luna, thanks for the coffee. I've got to run to a meeting. Luna: No problem. Até logo! Lucas: Até logo! Adeus! Luna: Wait, you used both? Lucas: Yeah, sometimes people stack them for warmth. 'Até logo' for the plan to meet again, 'adeus' as a final send-off. Luna: Oh, that's cute. Like a double goodbye. Lucas: Totally. Let's try it reversed. You're leaving after we binge-watch a show. Luna: Okay. Lucas, that was fun, but I should head home. Lucas: Alright. Adeus, até logo! Luna: Adeus, até logo! Lucas: There you go. You're getting it. Luna: So 'adeus' is more final, 'até logo' is like 'see you soon'. Lucas: Exactly. Quick recap. What's the general 'bye'? Luna: Adeus. Lucas: And 'see you later'? Luna: Até logo. Lucas: Perfect. Let's say them together one more time. Adeus. Luna: Adeus. Lucas: Até logo. Luna: Até logo. Lucas: Awesome. That's it for today on Learn Portuguese with Fexingo. Luna: Yeah, practice these till we chat again. Lucas: Adeus, até logo! Luna: Adeus, até logo!
