Those who sit and talk with friends, will have a great time.  Yes, all of those sentences require the 'future subjunctive' in Portuguese.  So, if you listen to Orlando, Valdo, Michelle, and JosÃ© LuÃ­s, you will also learn how to use the future subjunctive.  Don't be intimidated, Spanish speaking friends, it's easier than you think!DialogPortugueseMichelle: NÃ£o sei, tÃ´ me sentindo meio gorda ... se a gente for jantar hoje Ã  noite eu sÃ³ vou tomar Ã¡gua.Valdo: Eu vou tomar refrigerante e o quanto eu puder, afinal com esse sistema de refil a gente pode beber o quanto quiser.Michelle: Eh, mas quando nÃ³s chegarmos lÃ¡ fique atento com os copos ...Valdo: Fique tranqÃ¼ila, os copos sÃ£o diferentes.
