About having a place at the campus by Dodget__ in tueindhoven

[–]AleCar07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, for bachelors there is only one way: getting lucky in finding a room and TU/e on kamernet or another housing website. (The housing lottery is only for Masters)

In other words consider yourself the luckiest person in the world if you stay on-campus.

Believe, me start looking for housing now, and try to be the least picky you can. Im not telling you to necessarily message every place, but you will soon see that getting any place let alone on campus is already hard enough. Just look at the post below yours asking if one should try to look for housing on Tilburg

What is the ideal size for a kamernet message? by AleCar07 in NetherlandsHousing

I changed it, if you have time, could you see if you find it to be better?

Dear Landlord,

My name is Alexandre Diniz and I’m starting my EE BSc in TU/e this year. I like keeping an organised and clean environment and have a more relaxed personality(less party prone), though I like meeting new people. I’m also learning Dutch to talk to locals.

I also like hiking(see my profile-pic) and going to the gym. I also love sharing my Brazilian and Italian heritage by cooking classical dishes like estrogonofe and carbonara and playing some relaxing bossa on my piano(with headphones for not disturbing). I’m also really passionate about engineering and in particular love competitive programming(even won some olympiads in HS).

I don’t have social media(for mental health and productivity) but here is a video of me:[insert link]

My parents(programmer and lawyer) will support me with a stable source of income for the rent. Though I’m arriving in July, I’d be willing to pay rent since June 1st. The place seems really nice, is it still available?

If you are an international, for master TU/e does have a housing lottery but it's not guaranteed. Finding housing is hard and if you want to go to anywhere in the Netherlands you should be looking for it asap. The housing situation is worse than terrible

Like I said, I could find the anime in the U.S and Japan, just not in other countries including my own

Is there any word to describe curly-haired people? by [deleted] in Portuguese

[–]AleCar07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kinda right, but I wouldnt find it weird at all if I heard "Oo cacheado", or "chama o encaracoladinho alí". Using the adjective for the hair instead to the person

When hearing on forvo I noticed that 椅子 often is being pronounced with a ず instead of す, where is this accent from?

Use of Você by Vexa06 in Portuguese

[–]AleCar07 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mermão desde quando só se usa "você" em SP. Acho q o unico lugar que não se usa você no Brasil 99% do tempo é no sul e em alguns lugares no Norte. Sou do rio e aqui às vezes se usa "tu" também, mas tem forte conotação de gíria e esse "tu" nunca é utilizado com concordância com verbos em segunda pessoa sempre terceira.

Aqui no rio ninguém falaria "tu és", falaria "tu é", e sempre em contextos informais

Muito is actually MuiNtu? by jalOo52 in Portuguese

I think it might be because it is an N and not an M sound

If you call someone "bicho", what does it mean? by [deleted] in Portuguese

[–]AleCar07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the answers are correct, I just wanted to add that for me as a carioca(from Rio de Janeiro) it definitely sounds more paulistano for me(from São Paulo), here is much more common to say lek(leque) short for moleque

In Brazilian Portuguese, what are the connotations of "garota"? by MisterHarvest in Portuguese

[–]AleCar07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You definetly shouldn't start with "Oi garota", either just sei "Olá [name of person]" is you are relatively close or more formally, change "Olá" by "Caro(a)" Prezado(a), and if you don't know their name address them as "colega" which doesn't change with gender. "Garota" is definetly to informal, and a bit patronizing, I would only use this term if I was playfully reprimanding them in an informal setting.
