Be more sophisticated when speaking and writing in Portuguese
I can see many students repeating the subject in the texts. But in the polite and usual language its not needed, and even, if you are native, may sound like a dumb or calling the other as this. But we give a teaspoon to foreigners.
Vejo muitos estudantes repetindo o sujeito nos textos. Mas na linguagem usual e polida isto não é necessário, e até mesmo, se você é nativo, pode soar como um idiota ou estar chamando alguém disso. Mas nós damos colher de chá para estrangeiros.
Because the verbs in portuguese have many flexions, and in its forms we can identify the time and person related, you can consider this language full of conditions of compression. Sure we have also the infinitive just like english, but in some cases it´s not more used because some people say that, only attendants of 0800 speak like this, which is really not a sign of inteligence. Look at this phrase in english and tree forms of portuguese, and the version that a more cult person should use normally is the last:
E porque os verbos em português tem muitas flexões, e suas formas podem identificar o tempo e a pessoa relacionada, você pode considerar esta linguagem cheia de condições de compressão. Certamente nós temos também o infinitivo, justamente como em inglês, mas em alguns casos não é mais usado porque algumas pessoas dizem que, apenas atendentes de 0800 falam dessa forma, o que não é realmente um sinal de inteligência. Veja esta frase em inglês e em português, e a versão que uma pessoa mais culta deveria usar normalmente:
1-Can you be going to take the document in order to be paying? I´ll be waiting for you to return.
2-Você pode estar indo retirar o documento para poder estar pagando? Vou estar aguardando o senhor estar retornando.
3-Você poderia estar indo retirar o documento para estar pagando? Vou estar aguardando o senhor estar retornando.
4-Você poderia retirar o documento para pagar? Aguardarei o seu retorno.
As you can see, many are very similar to english words. But the verbs not. And, many long words that we use can be supressed or substituted for other more short or rare, in order to look more cult and sophisticated. Luckily, this rare words are more similar to english words than the diary ones... Because both are originally latim. Language seems to change more in the day by day level...

Challenges of day after day
I´d like to learn a language that could be eternal, smooth to speak, sexy, funny and easy, very rich in accent and with many stylish sound effects. But seems that every language of the world has it´s own idiosyncrasies, and there is no space to such foolish and individual lusts. Especially in the sense that no language can sustain all that is possible in every language.
Every corner of the world has its own characteristics, like open or closed accents, breathed speech, vocals, gutturals, sophistication or street language and several other ways of talking, as well as living. They are all rich in its own ways. And the fact that its not possible to have everything in a language means to exclude some characteristics, like everything in life: to choose is almost to deny what we put aside. To choose, is to leave behind things that even when they could be good, could mean make not viable the chosen ones that we prefer, if obliged to.

Unprobability of things
A not so old idea that came to my head some months ago, just meet the aditional support from a new book called freakonomics. This is why we could consider bizarre things like humans living with dinossaurs, or the deluve as a fact and the carbon dating now a possible huge mistake: because thr obvious is not always true.
