A place we all know well. Luna: Oh, I know this one. The supermarket. Or the grocery store. Lucas: Exactly. We have talked about ordering food at restaurants. And buying medicine. Luna: Right. But buying everyday food is different. You need specific words. Lucas: That is true. So let us walk into the store together. First thing you might need is something to drink. Luna: I am thirsty. Where can I find milk? How do I ask that? Lucas: Good question. You want to say: Onde fica o leite? Luna: Onde fica o leite? Lucas: Perfect. Onde fica o leite? This means where is the milk located.

Lucas: It is very useful. Now imagine you are hungry too. You need bread. Luna: I love bread. But I don't know the price. How do I ask? Lucas: You simply ask: Quanto custa o pão? Luna: Quanto custa o pão? Lucas: Yes. Quanto custa o pão? It means how much does the bread cost? Luna: Quanto custa o pão? Hmm. It sounds like a nice loaf of bread. Lucas: It is delicious.
