    boa, boa !
    Ficou um pouco forçado, mas é interessante saber que nós fazemos muitos gestos sem nem perceber, muito dos quais alguns estrangeiros acham estranho.

  2. I can't respond in portuguese sorry, but it's true that it is forced, it was to show the maximum of gestures in a limited time!

  3. tapping under your chin is NOT synonum for "piada" (joke). It means PAPO FURADO.

    For english speakers

    PAPO – is that area under the chin, below the mouth
    FURADO – pierced, with a hole

    Papo is also slang for "chat, talk".

    Papo Furado means: idle talk, bullshit, foolish talk (depends on context).

    The gesture thus demonstrates the literal meaning for the slang.
