- Lucas: Welcome back to Learn Portuguese with Fexingo! I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna. Hey Lucas, I've been practicing my food words. Pão, queijo, leite — I'm ready for the bakery! Lucas: Nice! You've got that down. Today, let's switch gears a little. We're going to learn some body parts. Luna: Oh, cool! Like head, shoulders, knees and toes? Lucas: Exactly! But we'll start simple. Let's begin with the head. Luna: Head in Portuguese is...? Lucas: Cabeça. Listen closely: cabeça. Luna: Cabeça. Cabeça. Lucas: Perfect! Your cabeça. Luna: My cabeça. So if I say 'my head', it's 'minha cabeça'? Lucas: Right! Minha cabeça. But for today, we'll stick with just the words. Now, on your head, you have eyes. Luna: Olhos! I think I've heard that. Lucas: Yes! Olhos. Say it with me: olhos. Luna: Olhos. Olhos. Lucas: Good. And what's in the middle of your face? Luna: Nose? That's... nariz? Lucas: Exactly! Nariz. Try it. Luna: Nariz. Nariz. Lucas: Nice. And below the nose, you have your mouth. Luna: Boca. That one I knew from Spanish. Lucas: You're right! Boca. Say it. Luna: Boca. Lucas: Perfect. So let's review: cabeça, olhos, nariz, boca. All on your face. Luna: Cabeça, olhos, nariz, boca. Got it. Lucas: Let's make it a little fun. I'll point to a body part, and you say it in Portuguese. Luna: Okay, go for it. Lucas: Points to his head. Luna: Cabeça! Lucas: Points to his eyes. Luna: Olhos! Lucas: Points to his nose. Luna: Nariz! Lucas: Points to his mouth. Luna: Boca! Lucas: Wow, you nailed it. See how easy that was? Luna: Yeah! I love it when things stick. Lucas: Now let's put them in a tiny story. Imagine you're describing a person. 'Ele tem olhos azuis.' He has blue eyes. Luna: Ele tem olhos azuis. That's good practice for colors too! Lucas: Exactly. And 'Ela tem nariz pequeno.' She has a small nose. Luna: Ela tem nariz pequeno. What about mouth? 'Ela tem boca grande'? Lucas: You got it! And cabeça? 'Ele tem cabeça grande' means he has a big head. Luna: That could be literal or like, he's full of himself. Lucas: Right! But we'll stick to literal for now. Let's practice all four one more time. Repeat after me: cabeça. Luna: Cabeça. Lucas: Olhos. Luna: Olhos. Lucas: Nariz. Luna: Nariz. Lucas: Boca. Luna: Boca. Lucas: Great job! You've learned four body parts today. Practice by pointing to your own cabeça, olhos, nariz, and boca throughout the day. Luna: I will! Thanks Lucas. And thanks to Fexingo for this fun lesson. Lucas: See you next time for more Portuguese. Até logo! Luna: Até logo!
