Elementary 73: The Tire Looks A Little Low


Listen Later

It’s so easy to ignore the warning lights that go off, but in this case the tire looks a little low too. It’s a good thing that friends can help out, check the tires and even take things in to a mechanic if needed. And if you ever need to make that request in Portuguese, today’s lesson’s got you covered.

Dialogue

A: O Carlos, você pode dar uma olhada no pneu do carro pra mim.
B: Por que, tem algum problema?
A: Sim, é que a luz do painel aqui está acesa, deve estar muito baixo.
B: É verdade, este aqui está um pouco murcho, eu levo ele para encher, me dá a chave do carro.
A: Peraí, olha aqui tem um prego aqui dentro.
B: Droga, então, quer dizer que eu vou ter que levar o carro lá pra borracharia.
A: Se você vai na borracharia, vai na borracharia do Ronaldo, ele sempre faz um bom trabalho e sempre tem liquidação de pneus também.
B: Bom, essa é a verdade, mas de qualquer forma, você me empresta seu cartão.


A: Carlos, can you check the tire on my car for me.
B: Why, is there a problem?
A: The light on the dashboard came on, it must be low.
B: You are right, this one’s a little low, I’ll go get it filled, give me your car keys.
A: Wait a sec, look there’s a nail here.
B: Dang it, I guess I’ll have to take the car to a tire store.
A: If you are going to take it to a tire store, take it to Ronaldo’s, he always does a good job and he always has a sale on tires too.
B: OK, that’s true, either way, lend me your credit card.
