Bom dia! Como estão? (=How are you all?) Which of the following words would not follow ‘Vamos’ ao cinema, jantar, como, embora
Tip: Don’t get disheartened if someone else you know is/seems to be learning faster than you. I does not mean you’re less intelligent/stupid!! Everybody finds different things easier/more challenging. One person may love the logic of the verbs, while another might find vocabulary much easier. We all get there in the end… in our own way and at our own pace :)
