Great teacher you are, you were born for the Job. as a Portugues I would like to thank you for making Portugal Home and teaching my language to others. I love what you do, you are a blessing to my Country . Your Country too. God bless you .
i too am Portuguese and I love that your id has the word "cleaning" in it. ha ha ha. If we're not cleaning something we don''t know what to do with ourselves! ha ha
Another quick tip: just like "You're welcome" is slowly been replaced in colloquial speech by phrases like "no problem" or "no worries", I've found that there's 2 pretty common expressions, mainly used amongst the younger generations, that also replace the portuguese counterpart of "You're welcome", i,e. "De nada": "Sem problema" (which roughly translates to "no problem" or "no worries") and "Na boa" (a less formal option that means something along the lines of "it's all good" )
@@dudanunesbleff I did say "mainly used amongst the younger generations" and I also mentioned that it's colloquial speech. I even mentioned that it's "less formal" than "sem problema". I don't know what more do you want from me.
Honestly u sound and look like a native. Great obversation. Even though I'm a Portuguese living in UK I never realized many things about Portugal in general until u've point them out, as to me them just come out naturally 😅 and I'm used to them! So great job and keep it up.
Iam a Portuguese learner from Egypt and I always follow your videos and write your expressions& abbreviations to practice !! Good job and vá em frente 👏👏
Wow, Liz. You are a wealth of information. So glad I found your TH-cam channel. My wife and I are planning a trip to Portugal next summer, and since I'm adventurous and not easily embarrassed I'm looking forward to exchanging a few words with native speakers. Thank you for your gift to us. (BTW, just finished your on-line free training webinar. Really great stuff.)
Thank you! I do have a program for beginners 😊 If you want to learn more about it, sign up for my free lesson here: www.talkthestreets.com/speak-portuguese-like-a-pro
A great video Liz! I love these type of videos. Definitely adding these to my list. I noticed when you pointed to the videos, the thumbnail says "file missing"

I am enjoying your videos. One suggestion. I know my memory only works with lots of repetition. I'd love to see you do the same sort of thing you're doing now, only with less English, and more repetition of the Portuguese phrases in different contexts. Thanks!
Lol e obvio que ela e bilingue e tem pais portugueses. Eu nasci e cresci entre Inglaterra e Portugal, por isso sou bilingue. E uma cena super normal na Europa hoje em dia.
Great content by beleza Liz! I am on the way B2+ and I am astonished how helpful this phrases are in my daily life ... My favourites: obrigado/a eu and não faz mal | ótimo 💫
You're very good with pronunciation and accents, im impressed! And you do look like a native portuguese girl, at first i was like 'she has a very good british accent' then it hit me, that you were not Portuguese!
E Então is more like a question.It's like Afinal? or Como é que é? or Como é que fica? E Então? Can also be a salutation when you meet a friend or someone you already know.It's implicit in the expression E Então(está tudo bem or estás bem)? Portuguese is a vast Language with many, many, many options for the same words or expressions. But you are doing very well in Portugal. Bôa Continuação!
Liz, thank you for all your videos. In this one 10 easy phrases to sound like a natives it would be nice if you listed all the phrases at the beginning or the end of the video. I watch a lot of your videos. I wish you spoke more Portuguese and less English. But I guess we all have different learning styles. Oh, and I have no trouble with the audio sounds great.
Love your videos and just arrived in the Lisbon area a little over a week ago! Would love to meet up for coffee if you are in this area! Would also like to learn more about your portuguese lessons (in-person/1:1) 😊
Em ambientes formais percebo que é mais usado “entender” em vez de “perceber”. Mesmo no vídeo que a federação portuguesa fez com a federação espanhola de futebol, o verbo usado em português é entender, também em publicidade na televisão é mais comum encontrar o verbo entender. Então acho que em Portugal usa-se entender e perceber e no Brasil usa-se perceber apenas para situações específicas
Sim na mouche e não na mosca ... quero dizer com isto, que a colonização pelas telenovelas brasileiras da SIC ... continua a fazer o seu caminho, meio tortuoso, para ajudar os macacos de imitação na procura da originalidade televisiva Global ...que é enorme, ou paroquial, conforme os gostos ...
No Brasil, não é comum o uso do verbo perceber para indicar a compreensão de algo, seja em um ambiente formal ou informal. Cá usamos: ter ciência, compreender e entender. Ademais, julgo que se usar perceber, as pessoas não entenderão de imediato o que está a dizer.
I only knew 3 of these, so I learned a lot! (and need to learn a lot more!) Thank you for this video - really helpful! I can see using these phrases often!
The string of ways we can express instant perception of something (or pretending we do) is rather abundant; so, alongside 'percebi' and 'entendi', you might try 'compreendi' or '(es)tou a ver'. The last one translates to your very much common 'I see...'
I love the “posso?” tip. I lived in Mexico City and it’s a society of extreme politeness. Many of the tips here translate to how daily life is lived there. For example, it’s common before stepping into someone’s house or if someone is blocking an entrance to smile and say “Puedo?” Same meaning, may I (please is inferred)? Another example is Obrigada, Eu. If you buy something at a shop and tell the owner or person who works there “Thank you” they say, “No (please), on the contrary.” Gracias…no, al contrario. Same sentiment as “Obrigada, eu.”
Parabéns pelo trabalho, Liz! ‘Força’ como resposta para Posso?, não se usa no Brasil. Nesse caso, usamos, mais formalmente, ‘à vontade’. Também aprendo português de Portugal com seus vídeos. Obrigado.
I am a native Portuguese and only now have I understood that we do "swallow" so many syllables 😅🤣I'm sorry if we are difficult to understand. I guess that because we hear words that already have "swallowed" syllables since we are very, very little, we don't really realize it when it happens.
So my family is portuguese, so i have to speak portuguese to some of my family members like my grandparents, but im starting to forget it. i dont remember how to say certain things anymore which makes it harder to communicate with them. what do you think i should do to stop myself for completely forgetting, and how do i learn how to speak it better
Hi Liz! I notice that business use the feminine form obrigada, and sometime male shop clerks do to. Is that a general thing? Is that because they are speaking on behalf of the empresa (feminine)?
In Madeira I hear "ta log" or "te log" a lot, which I think is something like the Spanish "hasta la luego" -- but of course with the usual 90% of letters missing.

Hi
Ola
There is nothing that warms a Portuguese heart more than foreigners trying to learn Portuguese! And yes: we always find your accent cute! 🥰
"we" ? Speak for yourself!
@@andrepereira744 you don’t???!!! Definitely odd! For the typical welcoming Portuguese at least!

You are the best teacher of European Portuguese out there! Keep up the good work!
Best teacher on TH-cam and far beyond.
Thank you ❤️
I agree, it's daunting isn't it to learn, but Liz is great :)
I knew all of these, and they account for probably 50% of all the words I use in Portuguese day to day

Greetings from Sweden !
Obrigada Sehora Liz Ja percebi , te ja .
"E então" is my favourite, haha! ❤
Thanks Liz!
The "cedilha" is crucial when saying "força". Because people wouldn't feel as much at ease if you went around saying "forca" (gallows) to them.

Much appreciated for your lovely teaching skills 🙏
Have made notes, and will set the 10 quotes over the next weeks to come.
Obrigada!!
O teu sotaque é muito bom...a tua voz fica mais bonita em portugues.
Will you try these out? Which other frequent phrases do you hear out & about?
A great video Liz! I love these type of videos. Definitely adding these to my list. I noticed when you pointed to the videos, the thumbnail says "file missing"
Lovely additions to my collection.
Are there any expressions for "get it together!"
Obrigada Liz és uma inspiração para mi.😊

I have been watching O Sabio on RTP Play and I have seen pretty much all of these used.
Really enjoyed this video and can't wait to use some of these phrases in a few days.
Is your mic on btw? Sounds like camera audio.

Fabulous stuff - will learn these phrases and fire them at the "oporto" cafe next to the office!
It's very good! What I would change is to keep the Portuguese all the time on the screen!
I love these quick lessons Liz and I learnt 4 that I have never heard before and two that I knew but thought they meant something else😂
Hahha great stuff glad to help!!
Muito obrigado. I like videos where you interview people on the streets. Regards!
I appreciate the accents ☺... Awesome... 👍👍👍

Hello Liz. Thank you for this wonderful video. My question about Obrigado nós, should we say obrigado or obrigada since nós is plural. Thank you
De nada! It still applies to the person speaking :)

One piece of advice get a microphone if you’re shooting with a camera not a phone.
So my family is portuguese, so i have to speak portuguese to some of my family members like my grandparents, but im starting to forget it. i dont remember how to say certain things anymore which makes it harder to communicate with them. what do you think i should do to stop myself for completely forgetting, and how do i learn how to speak it better
Also a good one, and useable to use when ever, is: pois 😉
Hi Liz! I notice that business use the feminine form obrigada, and sometime male shop clerks do to. Is that a general thing? Is that because they are speaking on behalf of the empresa (feminine)?
Thanks Liz! Loved this lesson 🙏
Memrise I think teaches Ate logo for see you later. What is the difference? Just more formal?
Hi Liz! I would love to know of any good European Portuguese books to read! Love the video ❤️❤️
Obrigado, senhora Liz! Uma pergunta : quando você diz "obrigado nós", não é preciso dizer "obrigados nós?"
(and yes, great video, muito útil!)
It would make sense but no, its just obrigado!
Now I know it's "nós" and not "nos"!
In Madeira I hear "ta log" or "te log" a lot, which I think is something like the Spanish "hasta la luego" -- but of course with the usual 90% of letters missing.
Yes, all around Portugal people say "até logo", but because it's so fast and locals drop off letters, it sound like "té log" ☺️
