Purpose
By the end of this lesson, you will be able to combine greetings, past events, future plans, and polite conversation in one natural exchange.
Lesson Explanation
A fluent exchange moves between time frames: Oi, tudo bem? Ontem trabalhei muito, mas amanhã vou descansar. Add a question and a polite invitation: Você gostaria de tomar um café?
Use a repair phrase when needed: Pode repetir, por favor? or Não entendi muito bem. Asking for clarification is a real communication skill, not a failure.
