I have an elderly lady who is Portuguese. We live across the hall from each other. She is hard of hearing which presents its own issues. I'm glad I found your site because in conversation she mentioned that our other neighbors pronounce her name, Adeline, with an English accent. She doesn't correct them. I thought to myself it would be nice if I learned how to pronounce her name correctly. Your site seems to be exactly what I need to be able to greet her properly and maybe even have small talk while passing each other in the halls. I'm surprised at how excited I am at the possibility to be able to do this.
Obrigada for all the vids , I'm practicing for my eventual move to Lisboa,and I practice these greetings with random gym buddies that are Portuguese speakers from Brazil, Ghana and Portugal. They get excited for me then they go on a flurry of speaking, reminding me I'm not done practicing lol. Thx again
Thank you, Liz! I grew up in Brazil, but am going to Albufeira in a couple of weeks and didn't want to come across as rude when approaching strangers. Bom dia, boa tarde and boa noite is such a lovely way to greet people!
Thank you. We will be visiting Porto and Lisbon in May. This has been so helpful. Much better than the language apps. To see and hearing how the words are pronounced makes a huge difference. Obrigada!
Consideriing my first trip to Portugal. I'll be going solo, which doesn't bother me, and am looking forward to seeing Lisbon and Albufiera. I would love to have some basic exchanges with the locals. Portugal is meant to be a fabulous place.
Respeitada Liz, o dilema de quando a tarde termina e a noite começa é fácil de resolver. Quando eu era pequeno, minha mãe costumava me dizer que eu tinha que parar de brincar na rua e voltar para casa quando as luzes da rua acendiam. Eles são iluminados à noite, e crianças decentes não ficam na rua à noite. Então, caros amigos a luz che acesa no poste de iluminação pública é o sinal da partida da tarde e ao mesmo tempo que a magia da noite comece.
Choir members are my usual greetings, but the younger ones mostly speak English, and the older ones who don't are *so* proud of their ability to greet me in English, I often forget to greet them in Portuguese.
thank you so much for these videos my in-laws speak Portuguese and it’s very hard to learn because they speak so fast and i’ve been trying to learn for a while❤️
Interesting a lot of people said entao to me in my local shops but I always wished them with bom dia or boa tarde. Will definitely be using entao on my next visit. A big thank you to you as your video on the ciple test really helped me
Love Jen Cicero’s book!! She reads it on audiobooks in her voice is so fun to listen to, just like yours! I’m interested in learning about your Portuguese language classes where can I find more information please. Obrigada Liz!
You going to make this fun to learn. Moving to Portugal after retirement in 4 years. I plan on bouncing phrases off of my swing shift guy. He is from Poland but knows 5 languages and not portugese lol
I love this video!! Can you repeat the phrases/ words at least twice. I try to say them with you and when I hear myself Goff up, I would just like to here it a 2nd time. Obrigada. Why, for Terceira!! ❤❤
Wonderful video. I am a beginner and some of these sound familiar. I hear these phrases in Figueira da Foz. It's great to learn the spelling how to use them!
I really like your teaching skill. Can you please organize your videos according to the levels? For example you can make 30 videos just for beginners. Many Thanks
My biological father who i never met was portugese, im 28 now and i have unknown family in Portugal, i truely love learning about the language/history/culture of a side of me ill never get to explore if i dont do it myself. Ive always regretted not meeting my fathers mother more than all else, lord knows how much better of a man id be with a cherrished/feared portugese matriarch 😂😂
Two of my uncles married a Portugal woman, So I'd like to learn Portugal Portuguese, Duo lingo is Brazil. They pointed out that I sound like I have a Brazil accent. So I am searching for a good program I can learn Portugal Portuguese. Thank you.
I've been using "Ora viva!" since the day I heard it on the radio 😅 One doubt I have though is how to say "goodbye" when, say, I leave a shop or an office. Because "tchau" is prob too informal, and I can't use "até ..." since I might not see them again. What do you say Liz?
This lesson - and I assume others - would be GREATLY improved if you left the words on the screen so we could look at them while you talk. The visual is essential.
I think it should be taught that the pronounciation depends on what part of Brazil you are in. Here in Rio, it sounds a little different then what is taught in this video. Same when speaking English in different parts of the United States.
I live in a nursing home and we have a new resident whose daughters have flown around the world to australia and dropped her into a nursing home she has very little English and the staff are struggle with translator apps on their phones which don’t seem to be able to keep up and translate her questions in real time it appears she thinks she is in a hospital but knows she is not sick so kind of wonders why she is here I feel really bad for her it’s my worst nightmare so I at least try and greet her when I see her in the dinning room withe appropriate time of day she helps correct my accent
I speak schoolboy French. If I accidentally pronounce "Bonjour", for example, convincingly, the risk is that a French person will assume that I speak fluent French and speak back to me in a manner which I won't understand. So I deliberately exaggerate my English accent to encourage them to speak slowly. The same applies in Portuguese, presumably.
Thank heavens someones on the same page as I am! I like to be able to pronounce the words properly so as I am understood, but I am such a beginner that I want my audience to know I am not fluent and hence they will reply in a slow and deliberate way so as I can understand. I fully get Liz's take of not sounding like a beginner but that's exactly what I want (and need). I'm more about making the effort in another country rather than ever thinking I will become fluent. All said and done, I come from Merseyside and so English is a second language to me.
Portuguese is like you're trying to speak Spanish, but you have a full mouth of stones. The Brazilian portuguese is much more pleasant! Portugal portuguese causes ear pain!
Interesting a lot of people said entao to me in my local shops but I always wished them with bom dia or boa tarde. Will definitely be using entao on my next visit. A big thank you to you as your video on the ciple test really helped me

This was great! I’m currently in Portugal, and I’ll put this immediately to use before I head home (and I’ll be back!)

This was the gauge we used as a child in America as well. When the street lights came on the children went inside.
Love your lessons!!
Thank you! 😃

Some of this I remembered after you brought them up from 30 years ago. But, I still have to put all these on sticky notes!😂😂😂 xx
Thanks a lot. I study by myself just for the fun of it and I find your advice very useful indeed.
I live in Angola right now and I am new to Portuguese language.
Wonderful video. I am a beginner and some of these sound familiar. I hear these phrases in Figueira da Foz. It's great to learn the spelling how to use them!

You can still say até logo or até à próxima it doesn’t matter if you might not see them again! I say tchau tchau or tchauzinho to make it cuter!
I already subscribe and liked
Thank you!

Well, I'm learning cause I'm trying to move from UK to portugal can't afford in uk. Is tooo expensive now a days in uk specially in London.
I'm learning Portuguese for my best friend
Lovely!

Love it. I am moving to Portugal. However, I need European Portuguese not Brazilian. Is this what you are teaching ? European ?
Thank you 😊😊
Yes, I only teach European Portuguese so you're in the right place! :)
What is the Portuguese equivalent of the Spanish "Mucho Gusto" - "glad to meet you"?
Muito prazer!
Boas-boas. I greet the ladies at work everyday, Georgina, e Maria, e ou governanta, e não sei que pá fogo..
Então? É uma pergunta, não é uma exclamação.Então, pá? significa: Então, rapaz?
