    House (as in the verb to house) and house (as in a building) have slight different pronunciations. The first one is pronounced with a “z” sound and the second with an “s”. Sorry I didn’t highlight that in the video.

    Thank you, Carla, for this very helpful video. We, my husband and I, have extensive experience with Spanish (my husband) and Italian (me), but English is our native language. We are are contemplating a move to Portugal in the next few years. Thus, we have decided to learn European Portuguese and we found your channel and your website through research. I am impressed with your and your husband’s website. I also enjoy your sense of humor regarding your husband. It’s refreshing to laugh a little after such a stressful time for us in the USA. Thank you again. I’ve visiting your site momentarily to begin our JOURNEY with you and your team of colleagues, including your funny husband. 😊

    Excelente video, Carla! Esta assunto da mudança na pronúncia do S por via da assimilação é um fenómeno que acho super interessante visto estar presente em praticamente todas as línguas de uma forma idêntica.
    (Ex: Italiano- spiegare S vs Z sbagliare)
    Em Português gosto de dar o exemplo:
    Casas pretas - x (antes de consoantes surdas)
    Casas amarelas - z* (antes de vogais)
    Casas verdes - j (antes de consoantes sonoras)
    * também j em algumas pronúncias regionais de portugal
    Excelente trabalho, Carla e Marlon!
    Abraço

    Hi. Love your videos, especially with the subtitles 😍
    I did want to say that I think the word "house" as an example of the use of the S being pronounced like a Z could be confusing because house (casa) is pronounced like an S and the verb to house(abrigar) is where you get that Z sound. As a native English speaker I automatically see the word "house" and think casa not abrigar. In your other example using the word 'close' (Perto OR Fechar) I would need context but wouldn't necessarily assume one or the other. Anyway, just my 2 cents. House on its own means casa, para mim, vs the very TO HOUSE onde o S tem o som Z. Obrigado

    Olá Carla! Obrigada pelo ótimo vídeo. Uma observação: acho o vídeo muito agitado/agitador por causa da cor de laranja que destaca a palavra pronunciada. Seria muito melhor sem esse efeito. 🙃

      @@portuguesewithcarla yes, but in your first example it sounds like you said house with an SS (noun). It might be influenced by Brazilian phonology which rarely has a word-final Z.
