Interesting. My holiday was filled with Portuguese as well. My husband grew up in Brazil.

His dad invited a Brazilian student to Thanksgiving and I was the only one not speaking Portuguese.

Oh ok so you know how it is, this is my first time.

I understand you just sit around nodding and smiling a lot.

and wondeing what they are saying about you.

ha ha - come on now - they may not even be speaking about you

I know they are, I just know it!!!!

you are probably right - they most likely are talking about you. I hope you recorded so we can now translate to learn what they said.

he, he, he I think I'm gonna secretely buy a copy of Roseta Stone for Portuguese then I will find out for sure.

that a thumbs up - pretend you are clueless - and then see what they really say !
