Portuguese books | How to start reading in European Portuguese?

Reading may not be the sexiest skill to improve your Portuguese, yet it can do wonders for your grammar, vocabulary, sentence structure and so much more.
Join me in this video where I share why reading in Portuguese is good for you; how to read, meaning what strategies you can use to read, and finally, what to read.
Don’t expect me to recommend a Nobel Prize winner (yes, we have one). Sometimes reading a receipt can be quite insightful!
If you have been learning European Portuguese for a while, or even just starting out, I’d love to hear about what you’re reading and if the tips I mention are things you’ve tried before.
Stay till the end to hear in Portuguese, with Portuguese and English subtitles, how I improved my Dutch by starting to read after a month and a half into the language.

What have you been reading in Portuguese lately? Street signs, food labels, receipts, books?

[@Linehan23]

Listas de ingredientes nos produtos, por que tudo tem óleo de girassol? Sério, leite de amêndoa?

[@thelanguageunschool]

@@Linehan23 a sério? Vês leite de amêndoa nos rótulos?!! Nunca reparei. E sim, usa-se muito óleo de girassol. And thus you learn that "sunflowerseed oil" is said 'backwards' in Portuguese 😉

You're learning Dutch?! I'm Dutch and I'm trying to learn Portuguese!!

[@thelanguageunschool]

Niet meer, Irene. Ik heb Nederlands geleerd in 2011-2013 ongeveer. Maar ik hoor het elke dag. 😀

Parabéns Catarina! Uma mensagem profunda para todos os que querem aprofundar as suas competências linguísticas. Agir como se não houvesse professores e criar o nosso próprio currículo a partir do que está disponível no nosso meio. Vou procurar o livro da Margarida Rebelo Pinto na próxima vez que for à Bertrand. Também estou a mastigar alguns livros do Vasconcelos. Todos os meses recebo a revista Selecções, bem como o tablóide do Correio da Manhã, às sextas-feiras. Tenho também alguns livros da Enid Blyton em vários níveis. Continuem a produzir conteúdos óptimos e fora da caixa!

Não sei se vale a pena gastar dinheiro nesse livro. Ir à biblioteca seria suficiente, mas pronto. Há quem goste de tirar notas no livro e tal. Parabéns pelo nível da sua escrita!

Catarina, I have been trying children's books. Two I just bought these two books. Are you familiar with them? If so, are they BRPT . . . ?
“A minha mãe é fantastica,” by Shelley Admont, traduzido do Inglés por Margarida Madeira, KidKiddos Books, Ltd., by SA Publishing, 2017
“Adoro dizer a verdade,” by Shelley Admont, traduzido do inglés por Margarida Madeira, KidKiddos Books, Ltd., by S.A. Publishing, 2014, revisão por Dália Rodriques

Olá David, I can't find enough info to say if the versions you got are EUPT, but the titles indicate they are. In Brazil they'd say " Minha mãe..." and "Adoro falar a verdade"

haha, não leves a peito. Claro que é sexy, mas não no sentido mais comum da palavra.
