Sometimes we are in a hurry and we need people to give us some space, so that we may continue walking or running, or we need to call the attention of a person to ask something, and we need to say something, so that people may understand what we wish. In English, we do it by using “excuse me”, but do you know how to say it in Portuguese? This is what we are going to teach you today!
It is very simple. You may use either “com licença” or just “licença”. To be more polite, you may add “por favor” (or please, in English) in the end, so that people may react better to your request.
