    Planing my travel vacation Well, I'm going to take my vacation in December, and I'm planing to visit some places in those 30 days I'll be far from work. My wife and I are going to visit her parents in Santa Catarina, one of the Brazil's states. The main reason for choosing going there is because we are missing or nephew, who has moved there 4 months ago. He used to stay with us at home while his mother was at work, and since then, we stay alone at home, only me and my wife. Back to the subject, in this vacation, we are also going to visit the Iguazu Falls, one of the New Seven Wonders. I've already been there, but it's a so beautiful place, that it worth the "re"visit. After that, we are going to Balneário Camboriú, in order to see the fireworks in the New Year's Eve Party, on the beach. It will be the first time we go to Santa Catarina seaside, and I think it will be amazing to be there, only me and my wife, far from the problems of São Paulo and work. My wife did all the hard work on choosing the hotel and making our reservation, trying to get the better deal (I'm not sure about that. I meant to get the better price here). While she dealt with all those details, I got the responsability to make the car review, since we are going to go by car (I really like to drive, so I guess it will be fun). I will drive for more then 2 thousand kilometers during this month, driving from São Paulo to São Miguel do Oeste, then to Foz do Iguaçú, then to Balneário Camboriú, and after that, sadly, back to São Paulo, having only 3 or 4 days resting to the end of my vacation. I'm really tired from work, so I think I would need at least 2 months to become completely full or energy... lol

    Estrutura das empresas

    Minha empregador tem uma estrutura de triz. Eu gosto crer que isso é a estrutura do fúturo.

    Meu empregador tem uma estrutura de (what does triz mean?) . Eu acredito que esse é o futuro.

    Apenas que nós temos secretárias, funcionários, técnicos, gerentes, donos, e diretores o enfoque fica menos na hierarquia e mais numa ambiente aberta;

    (Apenas I think it was a typo, right? Were you trying to translate although?) Apesar de nós termos secretárias, funcionários, técnicos, gerentes, donos, e diretores, o enfoque fica menos na hierarquia e mais num ambiente aberto;

    onde todo mundo é no mesmo plano mais ou menos. Isso oferece mais conforto, flexibilidade, e oportunidade para os funcionários em vez de paredes e desconhecimento.

    O show tem que continnnuuuuaar.... para sempre. Não há um fim nessa viagem, mas o gol é que eu falasse livre e que eu pudesse me expressar certamente.

    Nossa - isso já é tão díficil em inglés. Mas a idioma portuguesa fica bem mais linda.

    Becoming fluent in English Hi, how are you? First of all, this is my first notebook here at iTalki. Actually, this is the first time I write something public in English, so, I'll try to do my best in order to show my current skills and also, of course, show my mistakes, and for that, I hope someone point me the right directions to correct my mistakes. So, about my ideas on what I think would be to become a fluent English speaker. I believe that becoming fluent in English would open a lot of doors for me, both in professional and personal life. One thing that would be a dream-come-true for me would be working abroad, in an English-speaking country, like USA or Canada, and I also would want to be able to talk with English-speakers about almost every subject, in the same way I do in Portuguese, my native language. I work in IT field, so I have a daily contact with technical English manuals and articles, but sadly, I can't speak (or even write) in English, because at my job, nobody needs to use English, as our clients are all Brazilian. I'd want to have this oportunity, and I think the best way to achieve this would be travelling abroad and kind of forgetting Portuguese for sometime. I'm a self-taught student, and now I decided to take this as serious as I can, and my current goal is to become the closest to the fluency I can until the end of this year. I'm taking this as a challenge to myself. I hope I can find the support here at the iTalki community (and of course, I hope to be useful for someone who is trying to learn Portuguese). Thanks in advance.

    Question

    Olá tudos (tudos não existe, o correto seria todos, mas quando se está cumprimentando, não se fala o "todos", um olá ou oi já basta, mas você poderia usar algo como "oi/olá, tudo bem?") , vocês podem me explicar qual é a diferencia entre louco e doido? Ou é a mesma coisa?

    Eu diria que as duas palavras podem ser usadas, sem diferenciação. Existe também a palavra maluco, que tem o mesmo sentido

    E também gostaria saber o que se diz quando quer terminar uma conversa. Quando você usa falou ou tchau?

    Falou é a maneira mais informal, utilizada normalmente uso quando você está se despedindo de um amigo (homem)... com mulheres, o mais comum é usar tchau.

     

    Espero ter ajudado... esta é minha primeira correção aqui
