Dialogue

A: Ô João, você acha que eu estou gorda nesse vestido?
B: Meu amor, você sabe que é impossível responder uma pergunta dessas, né?
A: Não João, é fácil, fala honestamente, estou gorda ou não estou?
B: Nesse caso, não, você não está gorda nessa roupa.
A: Mas você nem olhou pra mim.
B: Claro que não, e nem preciso olhar, você não está gorda nessa roupa, está linda.
A: Tá. Acho que o azul vai ser melhor.
B: O azul também está bom.

B: In that case, no, you don’t look fat in those clothes.
A: But you didn’t even look at me.
B: Of course not, and I don’t even need to look, you are not fat in that dress, you are beautiful.
A: OK, I think the blue one is better.
