- Lucas: Welcome back to Learn Portuguese with Fexingo. I am Lucas. Luna: And I am Luna. Hello everyone. It is good to be here again. Lucas: Today we are talking about something that changes very fast. The wind. Luna: Oh, yes. Last week it was raining. Now it is blowing everywhere. Lucas: Exactly. So let us learn how to say it is windy. Listen closely. Lucas: Está ventando muito. Luna: That means it is windy? Or it is raining? Lucas: It means it is windy. Muito means a lot. So it is very windy. Luna: Okay. Está ventando muito. Lucas: Good. Now try it with me. Slowly. Está ventando muito. Luna: Está ventando muito. Lucas: Perfect. Let us use it in a sentence. Imagine you open the door. Lucas: Look outside. What do you say? Luna: I say: Está ventando muito. My hair is messy already. Lucas: Yes. Your hair is flying. Now, what if you see dark clouds? Luna: Do you ask if it will rain? Lucas: Yes. We ask: Vai chover? Luna: Vai chover? Is that simple? Lucas: Very simple. Vai means going. Chover means to rain. Going to rain. Luna: Vai chover? Okay. Let me try. Vai chover? Lucas: Excellent pronunciation. Now repeat it one more time. Vamos. Luna: Vai chover? Lucas: Great. If the answer is yes, maybe there is a storm. Luna: Oh no. Tem tempestade? Lucas: Yes. Tem tempestade. It means there is a storm. Luna: Tem tempestade. That sounds serious. Lucas: It is. You should stay inside. Look at the sky first. Lucas: The sky is cloudy. O céu está nublado. Luna: O céu está nublado. Sky is cloudy. Got it. Lucas: Let us practice the whole sequence. First, the wind. Luna: Está ventando muito. Lucas: Then the clouds. Luna: O céu está nublado. Lucas: Then the question about rain. Luna: Vai chover? Lucas: And finally, the storm warning. Luna: Tem tempestade. Lucas: You are doing great. One last phrase for safety. Lucas: Better close the window. Melhor fechar a janela. Luna: Melhor fechar a janela. Mel-hor fei-char a zhe nah la. Lucas: Close enough. Try it naturally. Melhor fechar a janela. Luna: Melhor fechar a janela. Lucas: Perfect. Now put it all together. Imagine you are on a balcony. Luna: Está ventando muito. O céu está nublado. Vou fechar a janela. Lucas: Almost. Say the safety phrase. Melhor fechar a janela. Luna: Ah, right. Melhor fechar a janela. Lucas: Yes. Because if it rains, your clothes get wet. Luna: True. And if there is lightning, that is dangerous. Lucas: So we watch the sky. O céu está nublado. Then we act. Luna: We close the window. Melhor fechar a janela. Lucas: Exactly. Let us review the words. Ventar means to blow wind. Luna: Chover means to rain. Tempestade is storm. Lucas: And Nublado is cloudy. You have the vocabulary now. Luna: I feel ready for any weather. Even snow. Lucas: Snow is different. But for wind and rain, you are prepared. Luna: Thank you, Lucas. This was very useful.
