      Do you feel like the pronunciations in Portuguese are similar to Frensh?
      As a native Arabic speaker, I am interested in learning both and to my untrained ear they sound closer to each other than lets say, english as an example.

      @@stevensen6541 Actually I feel the opposite, it's sooo different. But I understand that when you don't know well the languages you can hear similarities between the two.

    It’s perfect … learning pronunciation step by step is exactly what I need in the beginning.
    I have tried many other UA-cam videos on pronunciation, but I haven’t found anything this good.
    I started studying Portuguese with Duolingo a couple of months ago. I have gained vocabulary from there, but it’s not enough for comprehensive learning of the language.
    I’m going to continue my journey with you,
    porque eu quero aprender português e eu gosto muito da língua, é linda 💚💛💙🤍

    I REALLY enjoyed this video! I have been using an app (Babel) to learn Portugeus and I also hired a tudor, which has all been wonderful: however, the way he patiently and methodically explained how to property pronounce certain words/sounds REALLY helped me! For example, how to pronounce the p and t in Português! I loved it. Eu amo.
    Question: when is it fala or falar? Example: He said, "I want to speak" is "Eu quero falar." Falar with R at end. But in the app, when the sentence is "I only speak English" it's "Eu só falo inglês." So, when is it eu falar and eu falo???

    • @DecodingWordswithAndrew
      @DecodingWordswithAndrew  28 днів тому +1

      Hey Andrew, I appreciate that! In Portugal, people generally have very little problem understanding Brazilian Portuguese since they get so much exposure to it through Brazilian movies, tv shows, music, UA-camrs, etc. So if you learn the Brazilian variety well, you’ll be easily understood in Portugal. Now being able to understand them easily often requires an additional step of learning the main differences in pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary between the two, but there are tons of videos out there about this topic. Ultimately, they’re just two varieties of the same language and for the most part you’d be able to get by just fine in Portugal if you learned Brazilian Portuguese.

    I thought it would direct translate to English " Because I really Like the language"
    Which I was expecting to be "Porque eu Muito Gosto da lingua"
    but it is "Porque eu Gosto Muito da Lingua" which in " Because I like really the language" ?

  • @benseraphin
    @benseraphin 2 місяці тому

    Coming back to this and wanted to see if that intuition you briefly touched upon in a comment you left in lesson 2 is guiding me in the right direction.
    (Google translate seems to not be the best for brazilian portuguese)
    @9:49 Eu quero muito fazer means "I really want to do"
    If I wanted to say "I really don't want to do" would it be translated to portuguese as "Eu nao muito fazer"?
    Additionally if we were to be more descriptive and take "Eu quero fazer muito mais" and say... "I really don't want to do more"
    Would it translate as 'Eu nao quero fazer muito mais"?
    or does it start getting into exceptions territory?

    • @DecodingWordswithAndrew
      @DecodingWordswithAndrew  2 місяці тому +1

      Yes, all you do is add "não" before the verb to negate. I wouldn't use Google Translate, it will often give you the translation in standard, written Portuguese, rather than how a native speaker would say naturally say it in a casual conversation. A better resource is using an AI tool like ChatGPT or Claude (I use Claude) and ask it "How to say X in colloquial Brazilian Portuguese".
      Another great tool to see how a specific phrase is used in context is www.filmot.com. Let's say you wanted to see the phrase "Eu não quero muito fazer" in context. All you do is enter that in the search box and it will give you a list of UA-cam videos that contain that phrase in its captions. This is an extremely useful tool if you're ever wondering "Do people actually say X?" or "How is X used in the real world?" Hope this helps!
