- Hi! In this video you'll learn how to pronounce the letters R and H in Brazilian Portuguese.
Get to know PORTUGUÊS FLUENTE, my complete course:
www.portuguesdobrasil.com.br/...
Different from English, the letter H is not pronounced in portuguese, and here there’s no exception.
If R is in the begining of a word, we pronounce it as the letter “h” in English.
This sound also happens in the end of syllable or word: Porta, Carpete.
Learn also the sound of the letter R, that many English speakers struggle to make. It always happens between vowels and it sounds like a flap D or T. Examples: ladder and better.

My wife from São Paulo overheard the lesson and noticed how accurate it was abrigado!
you misspelled the Portuguese thanks
it’s “Obrigado” not “abrigodo”
not to be confused with “Arigato” which is thanks in Japanese
Just a note about the letter R in the middle or the end of a word. It varies depending of the region in the countrry. There are 3 variations: the caipira, the soft one like those in Sao Paulo capital, and the one from the throat like in parts of Minas, Rio North/Notheast.

@@lisastephens3692 Thanks!
Hello again! I have been practicing with your videos, and I must say that they are the most straightforward and clear help I have come across so far. Keep up the great work and thank you for the information.
Your explanation how to pronounce the letter "r" is excellent but I wonder now if anyone will actually understand me if I speak with the tongue up on the alveolar ridge, lol... I think I'm getting there though, will need a lot of practice.
Exactly! The secret is practicing. Thanks for watching. And if you have other dout about pronunciation, please, tell me. Who knows, I can make a video on that...
@@aboutbrazil I've just come across an explanation on some Brazilian website where they say the "r" is pronounced the way you explain it ("r caipira") in the Southern part of Brazil, ie especially around Sao Paulo and Minas Gerais, and that in the North East and in Rio de Janeiro they always pronounce the "r" in a guttural way, ie like in the beginning of a word or when two "r" are together ("rr"). Is that true?
To me, it comes more natural to pronounce it in the guttural way as I pronounce it in English that way too, which is why a lot of people assume I'm French. I'm actually Egyptian but speak English as my first language so no idea where that comes from.
Also, since the r caipira is pronounced with the tongue on the alveolar ridge, how does one pronounce the word "extra" (the Portuguese word) since the tongue is already at the front teeth from pronouncing the "t"?
Don't worry if you can't make this sound for now. It takes time to make it naturally. If you pronounce the English R, it's ok too. 😊
Brazilian Portuguese R pronunciation is very gentle than European Portuguese pronunciation
@@barbaraa011 ehi
Helpful observation.
Estou estudando português
How could Kalanga be prounouced
So “r” is sometimes pronounced as the r sound in French 😉?
I would like to know if there are rules for stress on syllables in Brazilian Portuguese
Yes. Most words have their stress on the next to the last syllable: altura, vermelho, dentista etc.
All theword ending in R have the stress on the last syllable: falar, devagar, invadir, calazar... The exception is if the word has a acento: caráter, repórter etc.
@@aboutbrazilThanks
Should I be trying to learn Brazilian Portuguese first or Spanish? I am trying to communicate, with a female that speaks brazillian Portuguese. Thanks.
Hi, jay! Brazilian Portuguese has many more sounds than Spanish, French or Italian. Learning Portuguese will make learning other Latin languages much easier.
@@aboutbrazil I see. I'm watching the butterfly Spanish on TH-cam. However she doesn't have any Portuguese tutorials, that's why I'm here. Portuguese words are harder for me to memorize, than they are to pronounce since you just rest your tongue from what I seen and the fact that the alphabet doesnt even look or sound anything like the letter. Especially since I'm americano.
Your explanation is very good I appreciate you but please I am confused about something! Why at the last of your lecture you said the letter R as an R just with a different pronounce
Hi, Adam. Which words are you talking about?
At first I would like to thank you for your concern! about the letter R it’s easy when it comes at the beginning at least I know I should spell it as an H, also the RR=H easy! But I wanna know when I should spell it as an English R and whenI should spell it as an English H! Obrigado 💐
About Brazil Ola Mr Ricardo, also about the letter H I noticed When it comes in the middle of a word some pronounce it as an English Y!! Such as maravilhoso!! Which means it’s not totally Silent!! Is it right or not?
R is pronounced as the English H in the beginning or ending of a syllable. Eg: Rápido, Rua, CaR-ta, fa-laR. we rarely pronounce R as the English R, as in car, door. This happens only in few regions of Brazil.
Does the word (Rede) mean net like a internet or fish net. Cus in my language there are different meaning for Rede. So can you please tell me what is the exact meaning for (Rede).
Yes, Hamad. The word REDE in Portuguese has many meanings: rede de computadores
Paulo dorme na rede
, rede de rádio e televisão, a rede está cheia de peixes.
Thank you teacher Ricardo.
The example of 'ladder' is only true for USA English, not British English where the D is hard
Yes, @jazura2, I am explaining from the point of view of American English.
Thanks, I needed that explaining!
The middle and end sounds are the same as non-rhotic forms of English
Hi!
2 tips are enough for standard accent (Jornal Nacional):
- like flap T: either single between two vowels or right after other consonant
- otherwise, like "h" for Hilton
me who speaks portuguese already:
