## The same paragraph at three levels

Original: Alpine glaciers are melting faster than ever, researchers warn. Since 2000 they have lost a third of their ice.

**A2:** As geleiras dos Alpes estão **derretendo** muito rápido. Desde 2000, elas têm um terço a menos de gelo. Os cientistas estão preocupados.

**B1:** As geleiras dos Alpes estão **derretendo** mais rápido do que nunca, alertam os pesquisadores. Desde 2000, elas perderam um terço do seu gelo.

**C1:** As geleiras alpinas recuam em um ritmo sem precedentes, alertam os pesquisadores: desde 2000, elas **perderam** um terço de sua massa de gelo.

## Grammar at each level

Up to B1, Parloquo only uses the grammar that syllabi set for each level. Each level adds what is listed here. The terms are in the language you are learning.

- **A1:** presente do indicativo, ir + infinitivo para o futuro; conectores: e, mas, porque
- **A2:** pretérito perfeito, pretérito imperfeito (descrições), estar + gerúndio
- **B1:** futuro do presente, futuro do pretérito, presente do subjuntivo, voz passiva simples
- **B2:** Normal newspaper style; only very long sentences and rare words adapted
- **C1:** Close to the original; only convoluted sentences split up
- **C2:** The original text; pages in other languages are translated

## What Parloquo takes care of in this language

- **Word card.** Parloquo looks up the base form, translation, part of speech and, for verbs, the conjugation with an AI dictionary, together with the meaning in the sentence.
- **Brazilian Portuguese.** Parloquo writes with você, Brazilian vocabulary and Brazilian spelling (ônibus, trem, celular), not European Portuguese.

## How it works

1. **Open an article.** Open an article in your browser, in any language. On your phone, copy the text and paste it into the Parloquo app.
2. **Click the Parloquo icon.** The Parloquo icon is at the bottom right of the page. Click it or press Alt+Shift+S, and Parloquo translates the article paragraph by paragraph and adapts it to your level, headings included. Ads, navigation and comments are left out. A second click shows the original again.
3. **Look up words.** Click a paragraph, then a word. The word card shows the base form, translation, tense, person, the conjugation table and the meaning in this sentence.
