Silly question about the Shorties

Understanding spoken Portuguese is my problem. As a silly example, at the start of all the shorties someone says something that sounds like “bom tu come” but this doesn’t make sense to me. What is really being said, please?

Not silly at all Peter. It has fooled a few, including me, at an early stage in my learning. It is…
“Practice Portuguese ponto com” (ie PP .com) Hope that helps!

I know, I struggled with this for ages, got my Pt partner to listen and he cracked up at my translation, all it is is ‘ Practice Portuguese, dot com.’
