The difference between “Obrigado” and “Obrigada”:
- Men say Obrigado
- Women say Obrigada
Why is that?The first thing to have in mind is that in Portuguese adjectives vary in gender to agree with the noun they are modifying. For example:
- casa nova (new house)
- carro novo (new car)
Obrigado comes from “I feel obliged”. That is, when someone does me a favor, I feel grateful and obliged to that person. So the word Obrigado will vary in gender to agree with who is feeling so.This is a simple and easy rule to memorize. Guys always say Obrigado. Girls always say Obrigada.One more note: In spoken Portuguese, we tend to drop the first “o”. So you might hear Brazilians saying “brigado” or “brigada”. That’s ok in informal conversations, but no one should write it this way.
Semi hiatus.
Busy moving and and I ran out of stuff on my queue a while back and I don’t have time to go trough my dash for now.
See you on the other side of this continent. Or if I get bored at work.

No matter what you think. No matter what anyone tells you. I do love you.
I don’t care if you hate her. You have every right; she killed people, she screwed up people’s lives and unleashed a curse on the entire fairy tale land. But Regina is the way she is because of the intensity of her emotions and for this particular son of hers? She feels love. The end.

Reblog if you honestly think you will be single all of 2012.
And 2013 and 2014 and the rest of my life.
I’ll still have tumblr and my imaginary relationship with ten different women.
