Face in Portuguese

On a daily basis, you probably encounter at least a few new people. From the cashier at the grocery store to the mailman. I’m sure you’d be able to describe all these people in English, but how about face in Portuguese?

That’s why we’ll be talking about all the different parts of the face in this lesson. Get your olhos and orelhas ready for this lesson!
