Planos para o Fim de Semana

Literal You-have some plan for this end of week?

A casual opener for asking about someone's weekend. 'Tens' is the informal second-person singular of 'ter', standard in Portugal when speaking to a friend.

• 'Tens' = informal 'you have' (tu form), characteristic of European Portuguese
• 'Fim de semana' is masculine: 'este fim de semana' = this weekend

Literal Still not I-know, depends of-the weather that it-will-make.

'Depende de' means 'it depends on'. 'Que fizer' is the future subjunctive of 'fazer', used naturally in spoken Portuguese for hypothetical conditions.

• 'Depende de' + noun = depends on something; 'do' = de + o
• Future subjunctive 'fizer': used in if/when clauses about uncertain future events

Literal We-could go to-the cinema see that film new.

'Podíamos' is the imperfect indicative of 'poder', used as a soft, polite suggestion. The infinitive 'ver' follows directly without a preposition.

• 'Podíamos' = imperfect of 'poder' — softer than 'podemos' (present), ideal for tentative suggestions
• Infinitive 'ver' follows directly (no linking preposition needed here)

Literal I-am free on Sunday of morning, if you-want.

'Livre' here means available, not free of charge. 'Se quiseres' uses the present subjunctive of 'querer' to make the offer politely open-ended.

• 'Livre' = available (not 'grátis', which means free of charge)
• 'Se quiseres' = if you want/like — present subjunctive in conditional clauses, very common in speech

Literal I-prefer to-stay to the air free when the weather is good.

'Ao ar livre' is the standard phrase for outdoors, literally 'in the open air'. 'Ficar' here means to stay or be in a place.

• 'Prefiro' + infinitive = I prefer to do something
• 'Ao ar livre' = outdoors; 'ao' is the contraction of 'a + o'

Literal What such lunch-we together on Saturday?

'Que tal' followed by a verb is a friendly way to suggest an activity. 'Almoçarmos' is the personal infinitive plural, characteristic of European Portuguese for shared-action suggestions.

• 'Que tal' + infinitive/noun = How about...? (casual suggestion)
• Personal infinitive: 'almoçarmos' = for us to have lunch — inflected infinitive used in European Portuguese

Literal I-am a little busy of morning, but at-the afternoon I-can.

'Um bocado' is a distinctly European Portuguese expression for 'a little/a bit'. 'À tarde' uses the feminine contraction 'à' (a + a) and is the standard way to say 'in the afternoon'.

• 'Um bocado' = a bit — very common in Portugal; Brazilian Portuguese prefers 'um pouco'
• 'À tarde' = in the afternoon; contraction of 'a' + 'a' (feminine article)

Literal We-go to-the park and after we-take a coffee?

'Vamos' as a question with rising intonation becomes an invitation rather than a statement. 'Tomar um café' is the set phrase for having a coffee in Portuguese.

• 'Vamos' + infinitive = let's; as a rising-intonation question it functions as an invitation
• 'Tomar café' = to have coffee (fixed expression; not 'beber café' in social contexts)

Literal I-have desire of trying that restaurant new.

'Ter vontade de' + infinitive is the natural Portuguese way to express feeling like doing something. It is softer and more colloquial than 'quero' (I want).

• 'Ter vontade de' + infinitive = to feel like doing something (more nuanced than 'querer')
• 'Experimentar' = to try (food, experiences); differs from 'tentar' which means to attempt

Literal Agreed! We-meet-ourselves at the three in front to-the café.

'Combinado!' is the standard exclamation for sealing a plan in Portuguese. 'Encontramo-nos' is the reflexive first-person plural of 'encontrar', meaning we meet each other.

• 'Combinado!' = Deal! / It's settled! — past participle used as an exclamation
• 'Encontramo-nos' = we meet each other (reflexive; note: no written accent in European Portuguese spelling reform)
