5. Grammar
I'm learning so I can have more than transactional conversations with people I see everyday. 🎉
Woop woop great goals!
I am learning Portuguese because it's about time!
Both of my parents spoke Portuguese and also my extended family but they did not teach our Baby Boom generation . My grandmother even help start a Portuguese school back in the day.
Now, I'm going to Madeira at the end of the year and I want to have the basics so I can ask for food! Haha
I'm ready!
Awesome!! You've got this 😊
I want to learn Portuguese cos l want to make new friends when I get to Portugal
I am learning Portuguese so I can effectively teach and connect with my Portuguese-speaking students. I will feel accomplished and inclusive when I can communicate with them, understanding their needs and cultural perspectives better. This will help in creating a more inclusive and supportive learning environment in our ELL classroom.
Awesome!
You are a good teacher
Thanks for teaching us beautiful teacher
its been a month since i started learning this language. im excited to see where i go in 2-3 years.
I'm trying to convince my wife to move to Portugal when we retire so I'd like to learn Portuguese so I can fit in as much as possible.
I'd love to help you out with your Portuguese if you move here!
This is exceptionally well made. Parabens!
Thank you very much!
Muito obrigado.
de nada
Thank you
You're welcome!
I like your english and i think you are a great english speaker.
I moved to portugal henec i want to learn Portuguese. Thanks for your lessons all are very helpful....
Thank you! 😃
I am learning Portuguese because i work at the border with Mozambiquans and it’s a challenge communicating with them so that’s why i am learning.
South African? Because I'm in a similar situation as you. Good luck hey.
I am learning Portugese so I can communicate with my new girlfriend's family when in Portugal. I will feel accomplished at first when I can understand enough in a conversation.
That's awesome! I highly recommend watching my free 60-minute lesson “Speak Portuguese like a Pro”, it’s a quick start guide for total beginners covering pronunciation, real-life Portuguese & essential grammar! You can sign up for it here: www.talkthestreets.com/speak-portuguese-like-a-pro - let me know what you think!
Here's mine: Portuguese study is the key that will open the door to a whole new world of new cultures, and hundreds of millions of Portuguese speakers. I want to fully participate in the community I will live in.
And as James Brown put it, 🪅🎶I'LL FEEL GOOD🎶 🪅(when I can)!
awesome!!
😊😊
Thanks for this latest video of yours - it's given me plenty to think about and decide where I need to focus my attention. It's also triggered a couple of questions.
I'm never happier than when flicking through a book, and I'm most comfortable with paper as my preferred learning medium. Can you recommend a good printed Portuguese-English, English-Portuguese dictionary? Something that would see me through from basic to intermediate/advanced?
Secondly, does the Portuguese Government operate overseas language learning centres? London already benefits from the Goethe-Institut, l'Institut Français and the Instituto Cervantes, all of which provide resources for learning languages, and it made me wonder if the Portuguese Embassy in the UK offered something similar. (Trying to follow your advice and find a community you see!)
Muito obrigado, Simon
Hi Simon! Portugal has the Instituto Camões, yes. Re. a dictionary I haven't used a paper one for a long time but the big publishers Collins and Oxford certainly have them.
@@TalktheStreets Thank you Liz.
@@MrSHG66 Just be aware that the phonetic transcriptions used by those dictionaries may not match the portuguese variety.
@@jandeolive6007 Thank you for that note of caution Jan. Yes, it's always best to combine dictionary use with practiced conversations where you try out newly learned vocabulary with native speakers, mostly to make sure you are on the right track. Out of interest, do you have a preferred dictionary you like to use?
@@MrSHG66 My pleasure Mr.
I must confess that I use the 'plain' online dictionaries available everywhere... 🙂and when I wish to 'refine' my search I use websites like "stackexchange" or "wordreference".
The reason I brought this matter to attention, is because I never see the Euro-Portuguese (EP) phonetic transcription in those dictionaries but rather the brazilian one (BP) which differs a bit more than, for instance, UK versus US. You can use "Youglish" or "Forvo" to have a grasp of the pronunciations or even use the 'translators' Google or DeepL provide.
I have some 'physical' dictionaries, possibly a bit outdated.
May I know what kind of dictionaries would you be interested in so that I share my experience (or rather lack of it!)?🙂
Is the "say it out loud" google translate any good for pronunciation in Portugese? (the little speaker button below the written translation)
Hmmmm I don't tend to recommend google as it usually goes for Brazilian Portuguese, DeepL has this function and is my preference!
@@TalktheStreets Just got DeepL on my phone. Will use that. Thank you!
Google have both accents, I think it will present you one accent over the other depending on your account stettings. Actually the Portuguese-Portugal pronounciation is not bad at all.
However there are mistakes and the translation tends to use forms of speaking use in Brazil
It's quite anoying seeing the word "esse" being translated to "this"
@@nerdinium I have found that the first google link uses an EURO-Portuguese pronunciation, while the second, a Brazilian one (I believe you'll find it elementary my dear nerdinium - pun intended😉)
Listening practise is such an important step in language learning. Tuning your ear to hear where one word ends and the next one starts is a flag that you are at a place where you can truly start to make progress.
How I managed this with Finnish was listening to bands that I liked - I would get the lyrics for a song and listen and try to follow along. Repeat a few hundred times and you can 'suddenly' sing Vieri Vesi Vieri (by Haloo Helsinki) all the way through :D
One downside I did find was that to retrieve a word from memory I sometimes had to sing a whole verse to get to it *and* I developed a singing tone to my speaking which was counter-productive. Plus you can sometimes pick up phrasing that is only used in song or poetry. It is still a very useful tool tho' and I am saddened that it seems Portugal does not have rich vein of rock music for me to mine :(
Totally agree and I LOVE to recommend music to my students! Thanks for your comment!
What type of rock do you like?
@@lxportugal9343 I am fairly Old School, being, well, fairly old :) My core bands are the likes of Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Rush, Iron maiden, Heart, Yes, Genesis etc essentially 70's Heavy Rock and Progressive. But the Finnish stuff I found that I liked was primarily Haloo Helsinki, Indica and a variety of singers such as Jenni Vartiainen.
Watch this one:
Xutos & Pontapés - Dia De S. Receber (the oficial channel has the lirics in the video)
And these ones:
Peste e Sida - Vamos ao Trabalho
Peste & Sida - Sol da Caparica (cover)
Peste & Sida - "Bule Bule"
Peste & Sida "Carraspana"
Going to Portugal in few weeks, how much does a tourist really need to know. Is basics ok for first time?
Hi! If you're only going to Portugal for a short visit, then basic words and phrases is totally ok! The majority of Portuguese people speak great English though 😊
Decidimos aprender uma língua estrangeira. Por razões diferentes. Precisamos de falá-la por causa do trabalho ou da escola, ou “essa língua” soa-nos fantástica. Temos a namorada ou o namorado num país onde o povo fala a língua do nosso interesse? Não é importante, já tomamos, com um grande entusiasmo, a decisão de aprendê-la.
Estamos felizes como se estivéssemos em pé à frente do inicio de uma bela estrada cheia de milagres e surpresas, preparados para dar os primeiros passos em direção a um objetivo divino.
No entanto, logo depois de termos iniciado, percebemos que o nosso caminho era como todos os outros, cheio de curvas, subidas e declives, cruzamentos e lugares perigosos.
No entanto, caro amigo, se já decidiu começar o seu caminho, não fique desencorajado com a minha tagarelice aqui, e não desistas de dar o teu primeiro passo no caminho do teu novo conhecimento. Sem dar esse primeiro passo nunca chegarás à tua meta. Ao chegar a ela pode ser puro orgasmo.
❤
Thankyou
I want to learn because I don't want to be a ignorant English man obrigado
De nada! 😊 you're in this right place!
Hi there, don't you think that knowing alphabets and their sounds are more important for beginners?
Hi there! I do have a video about the alphabet, here: th-cam.com/video/1cmD6KRwxOY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=aXBbz968bTAUEGuO
