"A aranha come pão."

Translation: The spider eats bread.

[lesliewilman]

Funny spider. "A aranha come moscas" would be more likely.

[rriding]

Sim! Ou "A aranha come insetos."

[DeanG6]

He's a vegetarian spider.

[MattSeagull]

So cutty !!!

[yimantuwingyai]

Maybe it's really old bread and has maggots in it. Yummy to a spider.

[Orangus]

That's what I thought :D

[satext]

The more weird, the more easy to retain. That's how visual memory works.

[ApprenticeFire]

I would give you Lingots if I had enough :)

[Anis102470]

Good point

[JohnReid8]

It works up to a point, when the brain still has something to lock on to.

If you tried to say, "The planet skydives" in the target language, then my brain would probably reject it.

[delvi]

The words "a" and "aranha" trip over each other.

[leetech]

That is common in Portuguese. Sometimes it sounds as if it is together.

[Chogas]

It is quite different from Spanish in that regard. isn't it?

[cinthiia_mc]

In Spanish they do not let "la" and words starting with "a" together, so even if agua is feminine they change the article to "el" just so you have "el agua" instead of "la agua", but in plural you have "las aguas" as it should be. But that doesn't mean they never have same letters colliding, as in a construction like this: "va a hacer". See? :P

[deactivated user]

Right! However, we do have "la araña" ...

[dallanto123]

hsdfjlsdhfljdsfhla, why would a spider eat bread! xD

[Danmoller]

What do you think? It's hungry!!!!

[dallanto123]

Lolllll xD ;)

[saniac]

Like the lion who writes letters, the spider that eats bread is so implausible I couldn't believe what I heard until I'd played it slowly many times.

[delvi]

They just want to put sentences together to give practice. Listen, enjoy the humour, and practice the comprehension. If the sentences are a little strange, then we have to listen more to make sure we are hearing correctly. Perhaps that is part of the plan? ;)

[crapfairy]

They inculcate in your mind that in Brazil animals are incredibly intelligent.

[isteallanguages]

Also, I am not a shark.

[faith46]

This pronunciation was quite garbled. Got it wrong ( sigh )

[sugoibeans]

i wish they really did. that would make them less terrifying.

[hhlt]

How do you know when "come" means eats or eating?
