Diante da sua alegação e dos meus conhecimentos só posso a duas conclusões: 1) talvez exista uma forma de fazê-lo sem usar peixe; 2) o mais provável e que tenhamos sido enganados por um bom tempo pelas fabricantes de molho brasileiras😂😂😂😂;

The reason everybody kept saying 'notebook' when it was 'laptop' It's not because of a brand but it's because that's what we call it here. we call a 'laptop' a 'notebook'. A laptop here would be used to refer to a fake 'laptop' like a kid's toy. Also I don't think a macbook would be the first thing to mind when seeing a laptop since apple it's not that big in Brazil.

[@hairandcia2028]

I don't usually comment, but overall I believe that only about 3-5% of the population can speak English fluently (and often have lived abroad). There are Brazilians who learn English without leaving the country, but they are also a very small portion of the population. English, being a Germanic language for Portuguese, which is a Latin language, requires a lot of study and memorization, which can take from 2 years for disciplined learners to even longer for those who are not serious. Obviously, it is easier for those who do an exchange or immigrate abroad.

[@wuyl660]

There are more German speakers in Brazil than English speakers

[@hairandcia2028]

The number of German speakers in Brazil is more concentrated among descendants or people with some close German ancestry. The majority of these speakers are located in the southern region of the country. However, Brazilian Portuguese is the only official language spoken by 98% of the population. Only in isolated regions of the northern Amazon rainforest are native languages spoken. Interestingly, Portuguese speakers from Portugal often consider Brazilian Portuguese to be a dialect.

[@V1CTOR07]

Yes, that is true, but I have a question, are you Brazilian because you have a lot of knowledge about the country 🤔

[@etanol.]

actually, more than 1/2 of Modern English vocabulary derives from Latin, and ModE also has significant grammatical divergences from Germanic languages. as a Brazilian myself, I found English to be naturally achievable due to the similarities between vocabulary, and a really decisive factor is how much exposed you are to the targeted language. when it comes to ModE, we are all exposed to it at some extent, and it might be through music, cinema, videos… so its classification as a Germanic language, doesn’t necessarily add up to the amount of work needed when learning it, coming from a Romance language background.

[@celsowaka6838]

@@InstantEnglishUK I see, I'm not criticizing you. But as other Brazilians have already commented, these are considered wealthy areas where people are expected to be priviledged and well educated. Brazil has a huge social and economical inequality, so people's educational background and even their appearance will vary a lot according to the region you are exploring. (for example, we couldn't see many black or mixed people in your video - they live mainly in the suburbs)

[@davidivlev1294]

It was interesting to see how Brazilians speak English and it was impressive. If I were there I would answer anything. I have a very extensive vocabulary and I know 10 000 words, but sometimes there are some words I rarely use in my everyday life. Unfortunately I don’t have many people who can speak English with me and I am desperate cuz I want to make friends so they can speak only English with me. I don’t want everyone to speak my first language because it annoys me. My family always speaks Russian with me and no one speaks English with me. I don’t live in an English speaking country. I am bilingual and I speak two languages fluently. My studies were in English, but I only had online lectures cuz I was the only student from my faculty and others were Erasmus students from different countries, but I never met them cuz it all was online, so it was pretty boring. When I had French at my university, there was a girl from Italy, we communicated with each other and then she had to return to Italy at the end of her study semester in a foreign country. Anyway, it was great to meet someone. During online lectures I had to listen, but it also was good because it was a voluble info for me and I had good grades this year. I will defend my bachelor paper this summer, so and then afterwards I want to move to my homeland cuz I’ve been living in a foreign country for 22 years and life is bad now, but things will get better. I want to find a good job, earn a lot of money, find a good girlfriend and make reliable friends. Furthermore, I am interested in learning other languages and I know some basic Greek words and I have a conversational level in Spanish, but I want to improve my Spanish. I’ve been working as an English teacher since last year and I am happy to help someone with English. I have dreams and I’ll do anything to make my dreams come true.

The 10% is the expressions, the phrasal verbs that i'm still learning till today, actually but it's understandable considering that there's LOTS AND LOTS of expressions and phrasal verbs in American english 😅😆 And i also speak Spanish, i learned it by watching mexican tv shows😆 Now, my goal is to learn Italian and French 😍

How cool, I loved seeing Brazilians speaking English, I confess I was surprised, I thought no one would be able to speak it because it's a country where few people speak it.

[@jumariano6995]

This was many years ago when almost nobody could speak.. internet came out and changed everything!

[@InstantEnglishUK]

They did great!

[@caioba5923]

The teacher kinda scared me a bit. The guy at the bar showed he´s acquired a lot of English. Kudos to him!

[@InstantEnglishUK]

Me? I’m scary? 😢

@@InstantEnglishUK Not you. The girl who said was a teacher. She barely knew basic words.
