Pega o metrô e desce em São Joaquim
Aunt Lúcia sends her niece Bia a voice note: the bus was late and she is at work until six, so she explains the way from the Tietê bus station to her flat — follow the signs to the metro, take the blue line towards Jabaquara, get off at São Joaquim, turn right, walk two blocks to the little yellow building next to the bakery, ring the intercom and tell the doorman flat 52. A notice on the gate gives polite standard commands.

5. Why does the notice say «Feche sempre o portão» while the aunt says «fecha o portão»?
Pokaż odpowiedź
The notice is written and formal, so it uses the standard imperative (feche); the voice note is relaxed family speech, with the colloquial form (fecha).
