Conceito novo
Room by room
Every Brazilian house tour covers the same ground. Note the gender of each room — the possessive follows it: o meu quarto, a minha cozinha.
| Room | English | You'll find… |
|---|---|---|
| a sala | living room | o sofá (sofa), a televisão (TV) |
| a cozinha | kitchen | a geladeira (fridge), o fogão (stove), a mesa (table) |
| o quarto | bedroom | a cama (bed), o armário (wardrobe) |
| o banheiro | bathroom | o chuveiro (shower) |
| a varanda | balcony, veranda | a rede (hammock) |
| o jardim | garden | a churrasqueira (barbecue) |
Wherever there's a mesa, there are cadeiras (chairs). And o banheiro is also the polite everyday word for the toilet.
