Your word today is beer:
- Cerveja
Cerveja is a feminine noun:
- a cerveja
In Brazil, we like our beer very cold. So you commonly hear Brazilians ordering beer like this:
- Uma cerveja bem gelada, por favor. (A very cold beer, please.)
And here is how you order one more beer:
- Mais uma cerveja, por favor. (One more beer, please.)
If you hang out with Brazilians, you certainly have noticed that we use a lot of diminutives. Here is how we invite friends to drink beer:
- Que tal uma cervejinha bem gelada? (How about a very cold “little” beer?)
