Aldo,

why don't you try to do Rio - Salvador by bus? alright, i think it takes 2 days, but just stop by in some city in between and find out if pussy is cheaper than in touristic cities (it sure is cheaper!).

Travel busses (even the conventional ones) all are very confortable, with aircon, good space for legs, and onboard bar, plus they are cheap. Must be less than 10Rs for 100 kilometers.

tell us more about Salvador when you get back cuz i wanna know about the bahianas!

cheers

W Blake,

Sounds great. How do I get you the money?

[Rio D]

You will need the Pimsleur CD's as a foundation, as Rick left out most of the basics. He even misprononunces some of the Portuguese phrases (he says some things as if they were Spanish - he lived in Peru and Ecuador prior to coming to Brazil).

Pimsleur sells an introductory course of Brazilian Portuguese, 8 lessons, for around $20.

Hey fellas,

I need some travel help. I'm trying to get to Salvador Bahia next week on short notice. Airfare is crazy to Salvador but cheap still to Rio on the days I need. Anybody know different ways to get to Salvador from Rio.

[W Blake]

I have a copy of the CD. I can get one to you for $7 US.

[Bizzie]

Can this CD by Rick be found in the USA? I would hate to pay $300 for Pimsleur CDs.

My last trip in Jan I bought that how to speak portuguese cd by Rick on hooker beach. I think the guy wanted 30 reals but I got him down to 25 reals. Also I saw it being sold in front of Help disco. It is a fantastic cd. It has a lot of useful mongering phrases. I wish he made a part two.

[Sexo Agora]

I found another source of Brazilian Portuguese slang and erotic terms.

There is a CD for sale in Rio by a guy named Rick, who's from the U.S. but has lived in Brazil for over 20 years. It's called "How to Speak Portuguese in Brazil". Rick hangs out on Avenida Atlantica. The disc is also available in some newsstands. The tape is improvised, and he leaves out some of the basics, but the explanations of local slang were quite useful.

Athos, dude... ass=bunda ;-)


Xdude: ""I want to come all over you face and tits" is "quero gozar na sua cara e nas tetinhas".

Have fun!

Athos, Junior,

Thanks for your help. Every new phrase that I pick up will come in real handy I am sure. Also, xxl's post from 12/19/02 on the Sao Paulo board (as suggested by HandsomeMan) has good information as well. I will wait a bit to see what other useful phrases get posted on this board then I will compile one list and post it here.

XDude
Gozar means also to have an orgasm. All the garotas use that word. Gozar no boca, garota told me this to shoot in her mouth.
If you want to ask garota, "voce goze?" Did you come?
Vai forte = go harder when fucking
Quattro = doggie position
culo = ass
brincar = fuck (i think not 100%)
chupar sem camisinha = suck without condom

[HandsomeMan]

For a translation list of phrases that worked great for me, see xxl's post from 12/19/02 on the Sao Paulo board. If anyone can expand on this list, it would be outstanding for all of us.

[Junior]

Here is a few useful phrases. My spelling may not be 100% accurate

Eu queiro = I would like
What would you like ? = o que voce quer ?
Sexo = sex
Amor = love (in Brazil you do not have sex - you make love )
Oral sex = sexo oral
Anal sex = sexo anal
Without condom = sin camisinha (sp?)
Let us make = vamos fazer

How much = quanto costa
How long time = quanto tempo
How many times = quantos vezes

Do you have a girlfriend = voce tem uma amiga
You are beautiful = voce e bonita or voce e uma beleza
Is she beautiful = ela e bonita

My portuguese is pretty good, so feel free to ask for any other translations you might think of.
