Every week we will teach you guys a new Brazilian Portuguese
Expression. This week the expression is “zoar” or
“zuar“.


Some people on reddit made the valid point that the correct
spelling is “”zoar””. I agree with that but I also think that the
form “zuar” should be learnt even in writing as
my experience as a Brazilian using and seeing this expression
being used tells me that people use the form
“zuar” much more than zoar. I also believe that
all languages are alive and are can undergo changes, accept new
ways of orthography and new words. Your’s truly, André.
Portions in Portuguese:

André: Guilherme, cê gosta muito de ficar vendo
cara forte né, velho? Vídeo de cara forte…


Guilherme: Hahaha! Ô cara… já vai começar?


André: Haha, cê adora ver vídeo de cara forte
né?


Guilherme: Não, não… Não gosto não!
Guilherme’s example:

Essa é a situação: eu cheguei no trabalho com uma roupa estranha,
e aí o André me viu e começou a me zuar.


Então eu disse: Ah, cara! Eu mal cheguei e você já vai me
zuar?”
