  • When to Use the Preposition De in Portuguese without getting confused // The use of the preposition "de" in Portuguese causes a lot of doubts and questions among my students.
    First of all, you can use it with A LOT of words to transform it into - do, da, dum, dumas, daquele, doutro, etc, etc... the list goes on.
    Then, it has many different meanings and some verbs ask for it and I am here today to tell you all about it :)
    If you've been struggling with this Portuguese preposition, this video is for you!
    Ah, and don't forget to answer the question I ask in the video - leave your answer in the comments section below :)

    I've just started watching your channel but I'm loving it so far so thanks.
    We have a house in Madeira and there are two confusing things. First I think the rule for de is different because Madeira is an island but I've forgotten what it is! Also our road is called Rua DO Janeiro and I don't understand why it isn't Rua DE Janiero like the city.

      @MiaEsmerizAcademy  2 роки тому

      Olá! Thank you for your support! No, "tu" and "ti" both mean you in different cases, but "ti" is only used after certain prepositions, like after "para" - para ti (you can never say "para tu"). I hope this helps! :)

    ALSO, I live in the north (2 hours NE of you!) and I now notice the difference in accents from the south. I hear you pronouncing "the "d" in "depois" and de" as more of a "th" sound. Is this more common in the north? Many people around where I live say "b" instead of "v" : )

    • @skurinski
      @skurinski Рік тому

      its the standard as an allophone for D, mostly between vowels. Same happens with "g" and "b", they become softer.

    I was wondering if you could clarify if 'Algarve' should have the article. I have heard it said that strictly speaking it shouldn't but I more commonly hear 'do Algarve' and 'no Algarve'. I am assuming the article is retained as the word was originally derived from the arabic for 'The West' and so tentatively follows the same rule as 'O Porto' and 'A Guarda'. However, purists may argue that 'algarve' is not a word used in the Portuguese language and only exists as a name and therefore the article is not required.

    • @MiaEsmerizAcademy
      @MiaEsmerizAcademy  3 роки тому

      Olá Michael :) In my opinion Algarve does have an article. And I have to be honest, I didn't even know that there was a discussion about that. Algarve, however, is a bit different, as it is not a city nor a country, it is a region and regions form Portugal almost all have an article before - o Douro, o Alentejo, a Beira Alta...etc - so I guess different rules apply here. ;) Interesting, though, that you've heard that Algarve should not have an article. I wonder who said that? I could be totally wrong (which I don't think so), but I do believe firmly that Algarve does have an article :)
