Cultural Tip
In Brazil, the word ‘online’ is extremely common and is used as an adverb without any article. When talking about streaming services (Netflix, YouTube, etc.) Brazilians often say ‘ver online’ rather than ‘assistir online’, especially in informal conversation. The phrase ‘mais tarde’ is neutral and works in both formal and casual contexts, but you’ll also hear ‘depois’ as a more colloquial alternative.
