A1 Collocation ニュートラル

Fazer silêncio

Make silence

意味

To become or cause to be quiet.

🌍

文化的背景

Brazilians are generally expressive. Asking for silence is often done with a 'shhh' sound and a hand gesture (finger to lips). In casual settings, people might say 'Fala baixo' (speak low) instead. In Portugal, 'fazer silêncio' is used strictly in formal or semi-formal settings. In schools, it is a very common command from teachers to students. Similar to other Lusophone countries, silence is requested in formal gatherings or during traditional ceremonies as a sign of respect for elders.

💡

Politeness counts

Always add 'por favor' when using this as a command to avoid sounding bossy.

⚠️

Avoid 'Ser'

Never say 'Eu sou silêncio'. It makes no sense in Portuguese.
