- Lucas: Welcome back to Learn Portuguese with Fexingo. I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna. Ready for another episode? Lucas: So, Luna, how's the weather where you are? Luna: Oh, it's super cold today. I'm freezing! Lucas: Está frio. That's how you say 'it's cold' in Portuguese. Está frio. Luna: Está frio. I like that. It sounds like 'eh-stah free-oo'. Lucas: Exactly. Frio means cold. So when it's cold, you say Está frio. Can you try? Luna: Está frio. Lucas: Perfect. Now, what about when it's hot like in summer? Luna: Oh, I love summer. Is it Está calor? Lucas: Exactly right! Está calor. Calor means heat. So Está calor. Say it. Luna: Está calor. That's easy! Lucas: Now let's practice. I'll ask about the weather. Você está pronto? Luna: Sim! Lucas: Que dia faz hoje? Está frio ou está calor? Luna: Hmm... Está frio. Lucas: Yes, because it's winter. Winter in Portuguese is inverno. Estação is season. So we have seasons: verão for summer, inverno for winter. Luna: Verão, inverno. Summer and winter. Got it. Lucas: Let's practice all four new words together. Repeat after me: frio, calor, verão, inverno. Luna: Frio, calor, verão, inverno. Nice. Lucas: Now let's make sentences. Imagine you're in Brazil in January. What do you say? Luna: Está muito calor! It's very hot! Lucas: Great job. And in July in São Paulo? Luna: Está frio. Lucas: Exactly. And if someone asks you which season you prefer? Luna: Eu gosto do verão. I like summer. Because I love Está calor! Lucas: I love it too. But I also like inverno, when it's Está frio and you can drink hot chocolate. Luna: Aww, that sounds cozy. Lucas: Let's do a quick dialogue. I'll be a friend asking about the weather. Você responde. Lucas: Olá, Luna! Como está o tempo? Luna: Oi! Está calor hoje. Lucas: Ah, que bom! Eu prefiro frio. Luna: Really? I like calor better. But I understand both now. Lucas: That's the goal. Now, let's review quickly. The word for cold is? Luna: Frio. Lucas: Hot? Luna: Calor. Lucas: Summer? Luna: Verão. Lucas: Winter? Luna: Inverno. Lucas: Amazing. And full sentences: it's cold is? Luna: Está frio. Lucas: It's hot? Luna: Está calor. Lucas: You nailed it. So next time you step outside, you can describe the weather in Portuguese. Luna: Yes! I'll impress my friends.
