Boa tarde Sandra e tudo....if you are not into "novelas" here are two alternative with subtitles on RTP catch up that might be suitable. Momentos Selvagens has ten, 50-minute episodes. It's very visual and they speak with gaps in between sentences which is great for my brain to catch up with what I hear without being overwhelmed with the speed needed to process normal, informal dialogue. The other is Tesouros da Europa, also with subtitles.
Thanks so much for letting me know! I did a video on a list of other shows but didn't include those. Obrigada! th-cam.com/video/nbx4nQsn91M/w-d-xo.html
Wonderful tips. I'd be wary to associate a word like Advocado with avocado. That word combo becomes guacamole in my brain. Advocado/Attorney reminds me of the English word Advocate. I expect both come from the same Latin root. Equating Advocado with Advocate would make more sense inside by brain. I really appreciated your first tool - to speak aloud words and phrases. Nothing points out my holes in learning better than trying and failing. If I was an actor, (I'm not), I would repeat my lines over and over out loud to learn them. It's not hard to see the same results learning a language. Thanks again.
About the last tip. This is why the more languages you know, the easier it is to learn new languages. I know Ukrainian, Russian, English and Polish and it is super easy for me to find associations and shortcuts both in grammar and vocabulary. Learning languages is the most useful thing ever)
Hi - my tip, (maybe more of an aspiration than something I achieve lots) is to carry around a slip of paper with my most awkward vocabulary issues of the day written on it - then throughout the day I can give it a quick peek and try and nail the problem words. Each day a new list, but the key thing is not too many words, but making sure of checking on them regularly. And the other one is learn Portuguese with your husband - we speak Portuguese to each other every day over breakfast, just chatting about our day ahead, thoughts, ideas etc. Might not be accurate but it's fun learning and you find gaps in how to phrase things.
Hi Rachel! Those are 2 great ideas. Taking notes of your struggles is huge! I ask my students to do the same when they watch tv, specially with closed captions. That way you can easily take notes and discuss them. Is a fun and productive way to learn. Thanks for sharing!
Obrigada! Boas dicas, é verdade! Eu também ouço a rádio Antena 1 no RTP. Quase todas as pessoas falam muito claro e aprendo mais sobre Portugal ao mesmo tempo. Nunca acreditava que goste tanto as notícias! Haha
Obrigada Yasir! Glad you enjoyed it. On a side note in case you are learning European Portuguese, we say "Muito fixe" while in Brazilian Portuguese they use "muito legal". Have a great weekend!
Advogado sounds like advocate, which is what a lawyer will do for you. The latin root is extremely helpful recognizing a word meaning. I don't know how avocado relates to lawyer.
Thank you Professor Sandra.The six practical tips are really interesting and helpful. God bless you in your marvellous effort to give the proper guidance. Hoping to see you soon with more practical tips and Advice. 👌👌🙏❤
Thank you Dona Sandra Carapinha, for the six practical tips to learn Portuguese faster. I could call them-- Golden Rules-- because they will definitely help me in achieving my goal.Muitissimo obrigada. May God grant you success in all your endeavours in furthering the Portuguese language 👌🏾👏🙏❤
Hi Roman! Good question! I see myself as a pure bilingual. I lived in the US until I was 9 and until then I spoke mostly English. I would visit the US regularly so never lost touch with the English. However, some people tell me I do have a bit of an accent.
@@learneuropeanportuguese Well, I'm impressed with your Vlog and the Amalgam of style, warmth, expertise and that "je ne sais quoi" (não sei o que or não sei quem, or none of them? 😆 lol). I was born in Serpa to a Luso- American mother ( so, I can run for President 😆) and an Alentejano Pai. I returned to California, circa a year. Yet, my Umbilical Cord was never severed. I returned in '70, '72, and to study in '74 through '76. Then in '81- '82, '85 and lastly 1990. However, if I had your level of Portuguese fluency, it would have made my Portuguese Odysseys easier 😋 😄 😊. My Portuguese is horrible, yet I can't shake my accent and I'm nowhere fluent in Portuguese...more like a Rude Alentejanoese. However, I am going to sit in the front row of your Portuguese Classes.
@@romancruz9231 Thanks for sharing your personal story. It can he hard when you are back and forth. My English get's better each day, thanks to my students but I do feel more comfortable speaking and expressing myself in Portuguese. I am so happy you enjoy my videos. Obrigada e bom fim de semana! PS: My grandfather was from Évora and my last name Carapinha is from Alentejo.
Olá thank you so much for all this wonderful content. I’m struggling trying to find the soap opera on the website you mentioned. I’ve noticed you have mentioned this show on multi videos. Can you help?
Olá Annie! This is the link for the soap opera O Sábio www.rtp.pt/play/p3019/o-sabio Here's my other video with a list of shows th-cam.com/video/nbx4nQsn91M/w-d-xo.html you can access all the links on the description of the video. Hope this helps!!! Bons estudos.
I didn't find subtitles in Portuguese at the rtp.pt when I opened O sábio. Is there something I need to do to see the subtitles? I await your reply. Thanks.
I'm brazilian and, according to Portuguese Newspaper Diário de Notícias, I speak Brazilian. How long do I need to learn and be able to speak Portuguese?
Olá Eddie! O que o Diário de Notícias diz ou escreveu nesse artigo é só para alimentar mal entendidos. A língua portuguesa é só uma, com diferentes variantes é certo, mas é aí que está a riqueza da nossa língua.
Foi até engraçado. Está a acontecer algo gravíssimo em Portugal, há miúdos a dizer grama no lugar de relva. Obrigado por responder, você é uma simpatia. Um beijo.
@@eddiesantos4978 de nada! O prazer é todo meu. A minha filosofia é que juntos nós somos mais fortes. Eu cresci a ver novelas e programas brasileiros todos os dias, até gostava de falar português brasileiro quando brincava com as minhas bonecas. Obrigada pelo apoio!
Hello Sandra, yours is a great site but why " Faster " I think learning should be a pleasure. Why set up hurdles at the start ? What is the hurry ? I think people should go slow to help it " stick ". Slow and easy does the job otherwise you could miss important information.
Hi! Thanks for the comment. Since this video I have been speaking slower. I hope you have noticed the difference if you check my recent videos. Obrigada!
@@learneuropeanportuguese Portuguese from Portugal ( the real deal) is not a dialect, "portuguese" from Brasil can be considered a dialect as they don't speak portuguese, they use portuguese to speak something else. Wrong use of verbs, wrong meaning of terms, silly idiomatic expressions, etc. Following your logic, african portuguese is missing. Quite a few of them! Oh and asian portuguese too!
@TaoDJ I'm so sorry but you're the true and only asshole around here. You seem to be an expert in portuguese language but you're not! Brasilian people disrespects so badly portuguese grammar that they've arrived to the point of not understanding, at all, portuguese from Portugal! I repeat; verbes wrongly used, meanings completely obliterated and even inverted, sily idiomatic expressions, etc and etc. All other portuguese language countries respect correct portuguese whitch is the only way to promote and preserve it. Plus, portuguese DOES NOT have dialects, it has different PRONOUNCIATIONS.
Glad to see you guys like my tips! Do you have any personal tips you would like to share with me?

Exactly! Welcome to my channel!
Excuse me! Where are you from?
From Portugal, Caldas da Rainha. From the USA, Massachussets.
Actually advocate is closer in english to. advocado.
Advocate is another good way to remind you of advogado. Obrigada!

Thanks for watching!
Faça vídeos para hispanofalantes!
Olá Alma! Sim quero muito fazer. Está na minha lista!!! Bom fim de semana.

For lawyers they should know that the same wordexists in English. Advocate. Perhaps your students are American.
Yes, you are right. The avocado 🥑 is just a funny way to remind students because of the ending “ado”. Bom fim de semana!
