Hello everyone, greetings from Brazil!

[dredmour]

Well, my name is Rogério Fernandes and i live in São Paulo, Brazil. My objectives on this forum is to become more and more proficient on the english language, by doing so i believe that my carreer as business administrator will be greatly improved, but i'm still a high school student by now. Good luck for us!!!!

Hi Fernades,
You live in a very famous city and a very very famous country. You know, I love Brazil and wish that one day I'll have an opportunity to visit your country. You're a business administrator or you're going to be? Best wishes to you.
When there is a will, there is a way!

[dredmour]

You will be very welcome to my country and to my city, really hope you do this come true very soon. Honestly, i've always admired the strength and the courage about all of the people of your country, would be great to visit the temples and know more about the History of this amazing country. I've heard that when the Vietnam was a colony of the United kingdom, its name was Indochina. Am i right with this information??? Please forgive me if what i'm saying seems to be foolishness, the fact is, it is a pleasure to know you and i hope to be your new friend. Answering your question, i'm not a business administrator yet, but actually i believe this will come true....well, i hope so !!!!

Hello again Fernades,
I'm very happy when I read your reply, especially when I realize you know my country. Well, you know, we was invaded two times, first by France and next by United States. My country is still poor but we're doing everything we can to develop the economy.
Let me introduce something about myself. Well, my name's Thao (means "grass"). I'm 18 years old and studing in high school like you. I love books. I read book all days, whenever I have time! I also like watching film, especially action movie. All of my friends are really suprised when hearing about my hobby. They all said that they supposed I loved romantic film. Maybe because I look ... romantic!
But in fact, I love action movie because I love heros : Spiderman, Superman and ... so on.
What about you? I want to know more about you for better-understanding, Ok?
Best wishes to you.
Your friend,
Sophie.

HI Torsten,
I live in Belo Horizonte city, state of Minas Gerais and I'm 22 y. o.
I've been studying English for 6 years and recently I've got a job in which I work as a translation assitant.
I found this forum while I was making a research on english vocabulary. I translate business texts for a
software company from Brazil and I consult the internet all the time to find terminological vocabulary.
Could I ask for some information when I get any doubt about such field?

thanks,
Abraão.

[Torsten]

Hi Abraão,

Thanks a lot for your swift response. Of course you can ask any questions you have regarding your translations. I take it you translate software documentation from Portuguese in English?

Regards,
Torsten

discussed about better ways to describe business procedures and it was helpful to me. thanks. I guess we will meet almost every day
by here.

Hi Sophie, Sorry to take this long to answer this post but my ISP ( internet service provider ) was down about 24 hs and the whole São Paulo stayed without internet service, i don't know exactly what happened but is something related with the DNS server. Talking about the favorite things a like to do, i like too much of "Rhapsody", a simphonic metal band with a wonderfull project, melt the medieval fantastic tales and classical instruments with metal music....i know it sounds a little bit funny but is very good!!!! Cool, the meanning of your name have some relation with a nature subject, Thao, i like it ^^. Ow, I have 31 years old and lost a very much time of my life before restart with my studies...well, there's always time to begin our lifes, no matter what the other people says!!!!

PS: Everyone is welcome to this thread, take your place Abraão, Minas Gerais huh, is a very cool place to live...let's know more about each other with a little more time!!!!

[sophie]

Hello Fernandes!
I admire you so much because you're so strong-willed. You're 31 years old but you still try your best to turn over a new leaf, a brighter future. Learning isn't easy, I know. I have a lot of difficulties in my studying, sometimes I feel quite disappointed. But I think when I know you, I realize we can do everything we want, no matter when we start. Try your best, I believe with your endeavour, you can turn your dream come true!

[dredmour]

Thank you for the support Sophie, it is not easy to make this so far from the suitable age, but if we think about it with diligence there is no other way to proceed. Whenever exists life, will be ever reasons to fight. Just one note: I really like to know that your hobbies are related with mine ....action movies and comic book heros like Avengers, Daredevil, Spiderman and so many others, i've readed a lot of this on my whole childhood. Pretty cool!!!!
PS: I'm still a enthusiastic fan of DC and Marvelcomics^^!!!!

[sophie]
