Talking to people on the Internet to learn a language is probably the next best thing if you can’t go abroad. That’s why I’m providing you with 10 useful phrases to use when you meet a new person on the Internet. Be sure to wait for the right moment before asking for personal information as some people might not be comfortable with it. Also you can be asked those questions so why don’t you go ahead and answer them on the comments?
Qual é o seu nome? What’s your name?
De onde você é? Where are you from?
O que você faz? What do you do?
Quantos anos você tem? How old are you?
Qual é o seu hobby? What’s your hobby?
Qual é o seu e-mail/Skype/MSN? What’s your e-mail/Skype username/MSN?
