Mia's tip: These two phrasal verbs are practically opposites! One is about staying together, the other is about getting away. Got it? 🎯

To spend time together in a casual and relaxed way
🇧🇷 Sair, ficar junto, curtir
Usage contexts
Real examples

Time to practice! 🎯
Let's see if you got the difference between these two
"Dude, let's _________ at the park this afternoon?"
"She _________ from the conversation when they asked about her ex"
"We used to _________ at that diner every day"
Mia's tip: Think of it this way - "hang out" is when you WANT to be there, "run away" is when you WANT to leave. Simple as that! 💜
