Éli: Se tornou de praxe aqui. Marlon: Sim, nem me conte. Éli: Eu não acredito que o Leo fugiu assim.

Sabe, dar um fora nela. Quem precisa dela? Éli: Marlon... Marlon: Tô brincando...quase. Éli: Não é que não esteja feliz por ele, é só que sinto a falta dele. Marlon: Entendo. O Leonardo passou por uns tempos difíceis. Foi expulso da USP e aí a ex- terminou com ele. Sabe, você o ajudou através de tudo aquilo. E ninguém sabe disso melhor que ele. Éli: Obrigada, Marlon. Como estão as coisa na loja? Marlon: Oh, horrorosas, obrigado. O gerente colocou uma competição de vendas e estou em último lugar. Se eu não vender algo logo, ele vai me demitir. Éli: Então o que você vai fazer? Marlon: A mesma coisa que sempre faço, ser demitido. Éli: Mas...?

Éli: It's not that I'm not happy for him. I just miss him. Marlon: No, I get it. Leonardo has been through some tough times. Getting kicked out of USP, and his ex breaking up with him. You know...you got him through all that. And no one knows that better than he does, believe me. Éli: Thanks, Marlon. How are things at work? Marlon: Oh horrible, thanks for asking. There's this sales competition, and I'm pretty much last. If I don't sell some things soon, I'm going to get fired. Éli: So what are you going to do? Marlon: Same thing I always do—get fired. Éli: But...? Marlon: Truth is that Leonardo and I always complain about how boring Carrefour is. So, tomorrow I am going to go up to my boss and do the only thing I can. Éli: And what's that? Marlon: Well, what any warrior like Bruce Lee would do. Kill myself. Éli: What? Marlon: Fire myself. Éli: You mean resign? Marlon: Yeah, okay, that sounds better, I guess.

Lílian: Bem, tudo aqui é muito fácil. A única coisa que vai levar tempo é a tradução da sua carteira de motorista estrangeira. Patrícia: Eu mesma posso fazer? Lílian: Não, precisa ser uma tradução juramentada. Patrícia: E o que é isso? Lílian: Uma tradução juramentada somente pode ser feita por um tradutor público. Quando eles fazem uma tradução juramentada o efeito é de transformar essa tradução em um documento legal, que pode ser usado em processos judiciais e instituições públicas. Patrícia: Por exemplo, como tirar a habilitação? Lílian: Exatamente. Você precisou de uma tradução dessa quando foi realizar seu pedido de permanência no país, lembra? Patrícia: Lembro sim. Eu lembro também de algo de junta. Lílian: huh? Patrícia: Tipo o lugar onde eu fui para encontrar a tradutora, foi na junta. Lílian: Ah tá! Quer dizer na junta comercial? Patrícia: Isso! ----Formal English---- Patrícia: So Lílian, what do I need to do to get a driver's license? Lílian: Well, everything here is very easy. The only thing that will take some time is the translation of your foreign driver's license. Patrícia: Can I do it myself? Lílian: No, it needs to be a notarized translation. Patrícia: And what is that? Lílian: A notarized translation can only be done by a public translator. When they create a notarized translation, it has the effect of turning the translation into a legal document that can be used in court cases and government institutions. Patrícia: For example, like getting your driver's license? Lílian: Exactly. You needed one of these translations when you started your request for permanency in the country, remember? Patrícia: Yes, I remember. I also remember something about a joint? Lílian: Huh? Patrícia: Like the place where I went to meet the translator was at a joint. Lílian: Oh ok! You mean the Commerce Center? Patrícia: That's it! --------------------------- Learn Portuguese with PortuguesePod101!
