Dear
Scotious,
I’m in Brasilia,
Brazil for the next three months and I have been learning Portuguese for this
trip so that way I can talk with the locals but it seems that it doesn’t really
matter because everywhere I go people talk to me in English which isn’t a big
problem to most people but I have been learning Portuguese for this trip so
that way people don’t have to talk to me in English and struggle with it. I
would like to talk in Portuguese but I don’t know how to tell the people that I
want to talk to them in Portuguese.
From your
truly,
Mr. Brazil
Dear Mr.
Brazil,
Don’t worry about it. Several people who travel to different
countries talk to people in English as English is one of the universal
languages. So don’t worry about it if someone talks to you in English, it is
fine as most countries teach that language in the schools. I understand that
you probably put a lot into learning Portuguese and I do understand if you
would want to use it so just talk to them in Portuguese and since you have a
long vacation there, people, like ones who work in restaurants and other
service businesses will know that you speak Portuguese and they’ll know that you
want them to
Sincerely,
Scotious
