- Lucas: Hey Luna, ready for another episode of Learn Portuguese with Fexingo? Luna: Yeah! I loved learning about Carnival last time. But now I'm thinking about football season. Lucas: Oh, football in Brazil is huge. Let's learn how to buy match tickets today. Luna: Yes! I want to go to a game. First, how do I say 'I want two tickets'? Lucas: Eu quero dois ingressos. Let's break it down: eu quero means 'I want', dois is 'two', ingressos is 'tickets'. Luna: Eu quero dois ingressos. Lucas: Perfect! Now, if you want tickets for a football match, you say 'para o jogo de futebol'. Luna: Para o jogo de futebol. So together: Eu quero dois ingressos para o jogo de futebol. Lucas: Exactly! You're a natural. Luna: Then I ask the price, right? Quanto custa? Lucas: Yes, quanto custa? means 'how much does it cost?'. Luna: Quanto custa? Lucas: Great. And if they ask you which section, you can say 'setor norte, por favor' – north section, please. Luna: Setor norte, por favor. Lucas: And always remember to say Obrigado at the end. Luna: Obrigado. So the whole conversation: Eu quero dois ingressos para o jogo de futebol. Quanto custa? Setor norte, por favor. Obrigado. Lucas: You got it! Let's practice a mini-scenario. Imagine you're at the ticket booth. Luna: Okay! Bom dia. Eu quero dois ingressos para o jogo de futebol. Lucas: The attendant says 'São cinquenta reais cada.' That's fifty reais each. Luna: Quanto custa? Oh, they just said. So I say 'Setor norte, por favor'. Lucas: And they hand you the tickets. You say Obrigado. Luna: Obrigado! I did it. Lucas: You did. Let's review all the phrases once more. Luna: Eu quero dois ingressos. Lucas: Para o jogo de futebol. Luna: Quanto custa? Lucas: Setor norte, por favor. Luna: Obrigado. Lucas: Perfect.
