Do you love or hate shopping? People seem to fall into one of those camps. And how does your love/hate of shopping change when you get to do it online? Or does it change when you are shopping for cloths or for tools? All of this goes into our shopping patterns, and in this lesson we do it in Portuguese.DialogueA: Ô Sueli, você aceita esse estereótipo de que o homem não gosta de fazer compras?
B: Não sei viu, no caso do Ronaldo, meu marido, o que ele não gosta e olhar tudo e não comprar nada.
A: É, meu irmão o Luizão diz que não gosta de compras, mas ele passa horas e horas na internet buscando as promoções, comparando preços e lendo os detalhes.
B: Essa é a diferença, eu prefiro ver a vitrine, rodar o local inteiro, ver o que têm, descobrir uma coisa nova. É muito mais agradável do que esse tal de “estudar as opções” na internet.
A: Mas Luizão entra na loja, faz a compra em dois minutos, e já quer voltar para a casa.
B: Mas sabe, outro dia eu estive na Sodimac com Ronaldo. Ele disse que precisava de uma nova chave inglesa...
A: E já sei, ele ficou lá horas e horas, feliz da vida comparando tudo, né?
B: Exato, depois de dez minutos eu que não aguentava mais, eu me despedi dele, e fui para outro departamento sozinha.
A: Tá vendo? Esse estereótipo não é verdadeiro, os homens também gostam de fazer compras, só depende do produto.A: Sueli, do you accept the stereotype that men don’t like to go shopping?
B: I don’t know, you know, in the case of Ronaldo, what he doesn’t like it to looking and end up not buying anything.
A: Yes, Luizão says that he doesn’t like shopping, but he spends hours and hours on the internet looking for sales, comparing prices, and reading about details.
B: That’s the difference, I prefer to window shop, walk around the whole place, seeing what they have, and finding something new. This is much more enjoyable than this thing of “studying the options” on the internet.
A: But Luizão enters the store, buy something in two minutes, and then he already wants to go home.
B: But you know, the other day I was at Sodimac with Ronaldo. He said he needed another wrench…
A: And I already know, he spent hours and hours, happy as can be comparing everything, right?
B: Exactly, after ten minutes I couldn’t take it anymore and I said good bye to him and when to another department all by myself.
A: You see? The stereotype isn’t true, men also like to go shopping, it just depends on the product.
