Learn Portuguese with Pelé

Learn Portuguese with Brazilian soccer legend Pelé. In this video, I'm going to break down some clips of Pelé speaking in Portuguese about his experiences living abroad.
Being able to understand famous Brazilian figures speaking in their native language can be a powerful motivational force in learning Portuguese. Watch this entire video and you'll not only be able to understand one of the greatest Brazilian athletes of all time!

1. I must pronounce Pelé correctly in future. Stress on second syllable.
2. Interesting accent. Pelé pronounces words ending -ade and -mente different from Andrew.

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Good point on # 2...the way he pronounces certain words isn't the most common way...very specific to certain regions. The way I teach it is the more of the "standard" way (for lack of a better word) that you'll hear on the news, audio books, dubbings, etc.

Why is it that Brazilians often drop the pronouns when speaking? Like is it a matter of only doing this when speaking informally? When am I allowed to do this ?

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

it's optional, there's no rule...you can drop the pronouns because the subject is implied by the conjugation

Good breakdown Andrew! This sounded so fast for me! Thanks for being so helpful to us beginners. You are so intentional not moving to advanced but challenging us at the same time. I’d love to hear about your own personal language learning and teaching journey !
