- Lucas: Hey there, and welcome back to Learn Portuguese with Fexingo. I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna. Episode 166 already — can you believe it? Lucas: I know, it's flown by. Today we're revisiting something sweet: ordering a pastel de nata. Luna: Oh, I love those little custard tarts. They're so good. Lucas: Right? So let's warm up with the main phrase. Repeat after me: Eu quero um pastel de nata. Luna: Eu quero um pastel de nata. Eu quero um pastel de nata. That's 'I want a pastel de nata'? Lucas: Exactly. You've got it. Now, you might also need to ask the price: Quanto custa? Luna: Quanto custa. How much does it cost. Easy. Lucas: And then you can choose if you want it cold or hot. Frio — cold. Quente — hot. Frio, por favor. Quente, por favor. Luna: Frio, por favor. That means 'Cold, please.' Good for a hot day. Lucas: Exactly. So let's imagine you're at a café. You say to the server: Eu quero um pastel de nata. Luna: Eu quero um pastel de nata. Then they ask something? Quanto custa? Lucas: Maybe. But they might ask 'Frio ou quente?' So you can answer: Frio, por favor. Luna: Frio, por favor. Got it. Lucas: Let's practice the full exchange. You: Eu quero um pastel de nata. Server: Frio ou quente? You: Frio, por favor. Server: Quanto custa? You say: Quanto custa? No, wait — you ask that. Let me redo: You: Eu quero um pastel de nata. Server: Frio ou quente? You: Frio, por favor. Then you ask: Quanto custa? Luna: Okay, let me try. Eu quero um pastel de nata. Frio, por favor. Quanto custa? Lucas: Perfect. You just ordered a pastel de nata cold and asked the price. Luna: Nice.
