Welcome to Area 51, the secret section of the website where the rules loosen up and curiosity is highly encouraged.
Here you’ll find extra activities connected to each unit — bonus videos, hidden exercises, unusual challenges, and materials that didn’t fit neatly into the main flow… and didn’t want to.

This is the playground for the curious learner: the place to explore, review, experiment, and sometimes get confused on purpose.
Nothing here is mandatory, nothing is graded, and everything exists to deepen your contact with real Portuguese — the kind that appears when you least expect it.

Think of Area 51 as the classified files of the course: optional, weird, useful, and surprisingly addictive.
Enter at your own risk. You might learn more than planned.
