When I was a child, I was brought up by my
parents and I remember a day that our car broke down when we were almost
getting home. My father said to me, “I’m gonna find someone to help us and I’ll be back in a
minute.” After a while my mother
and I went on waiting for my father. He
came back with an
American guy to help us. The American said, “I come from the USA and I just arrived in Brazil. I took up studying
Portuguese and I can help you guys if you help me to learn Portuguese.” I replied (just a suggestion), “Yes, we can help you.” Then (then helps the text transition better and sounds smoother) the American said,
“I’ve got a meeting tomorrow where I have (using got again wasn't bad, but I thought to make the sentence sound better to choose another word) to speak
Portuguese, but I’m gonna call the meeting off because I wanna learn more. I
used to take classes when I was in the USA,
but I didn’t understand too
much and my classmates
were better than me.
I’d like to catch
up to them, so now I’m here in Brazil
and I’m able to carry on practicing Portuguese to become fluent”
So, that’s it. The history is over.
Thanks! See ya.
