@Listen and Learn Portuguese with Maria My pleasure, Maria. Obviously everyone loves your lessons as I do, and heck, IMHO if everyone who liked these lessons even donated $5 or €5, you'd have enough to make 100 more videos with your great EP lessons! You rock!
We are applying for dual citizenship from Portugal until it is too late. I’m the last generation. Recently learned that our family history is amazing. This young lady is by-far the best TH-cam channel to learn Portuguese. We listen to her all day. We must learn Portuguese before we retire and she makes it easy. Love it
Oh my goodness! 😍😅 Thank you so much, dear! First things first- I am super happy to hear the content guides you to your goals and that you find it useful. Then, I am glad to hear feedback from a colleague and finally, this comment really warmed my heart. Thanks a million, you made my day. ❤🌻🌞

This is so far the best and most helpful video that I've found for learning Portuguese. As a person who speaks three languages I can assure you this is the most productive video on the web.
just arrived in Portugal for working. I believe that your channel will help me learning Portuguese from zero, and I think my Portuguese will grow along with your channel.
I found your course by accident, but I am happy because thanks to you I am starting to learn Portuguese! Thank you! European Portuguese sounds beautiful!
Thank you so much, I speak brazilian portuguese but moved to Europe and the cals i get here are from European portuguese speakers and your videos are helping me a lot to train my listening skills and adapting my brain to European portuguese and ito mprove my accent too.
At first I was not confident to learn Portuguese but after watching your videos I'm getting confident to learn the beautiful Portuguese language...thank you so much from the core of my heart for making Portuguese easy for us...your videos are helping me to learn the language...please keep it up and come up with more useful and easy videos...
Sou brasileira e quero aprender o português de Portugal para conseguir ouvir melhor o que a malta fala no trabalho. Estou a tentar desconstruir meu português brasileiro e aceitar que o português europeu, ao mesmo tempo que é tão parecido, é tão diferente 😂🤣😂 Praticamente TODAS as palavras que ensinastes são bem diferentes do meu português. Chocolate, ideia e elefante são as mais difíceis pra eu pronunciar. Uma coisa MUITO interessante que notei, é que no Brasil só há UM lugar onde a pronúncia do nh de "sonho" (como se fosse soniu) foi preservada tal como é no português de Portugal: no Pará! O Pará foi um estado que recebeu poucos imigrantes. Portanto, não sofreu tanta influência de outras línguas se comparado com outras partes do Brasil. Você explica muito bem e gosto da sua vibe! Muito obrigada, Maria! 💯❤
Than goodness! I actually found a video of where to start. I always only run into advanced videos. I don't want lesson 29; I want lesson 1! Obrigado Edit: you make learning easy, and are so helpful with pronunciation
Oh, thank you! The idea is to guide you from the first to the last lesson of the beginner level so that you can continue watching advanced videos! :D Level A1 lessons will be posted on the regular basis twice a week, stay tuned and enjoy your learning process! xoxo
Maria, some of the well-known and expensive language learning options should take a few lessons from your videos. My wife and I are making our first trip to Portugal in April and this is exactly what we were looking for to help us with the basics of the language... Sooooo clear and helpful. I'm looking forward to all your videos. Keep up the great work!!
Oh my gosh, that was great. Now I've found exactly what I've been looking for. You have such a calm and relaxed attitude. I know I'm going to enjoy learning Portuguese. Thank you so much.
Guys, you asked for it, and now you have it- please use the timestamps to jump to the letter you wanna practice. I hope this facilitates the learning. Enjoy, and let me know if you have any questions! Much love! xoxoxo
I love the way you explain the Portuguese accent. First slowly, so we can really hear it. Then faster. This is extremely helpful. I am just beginning and will practice with this video for days, I'm sure before moving on.
Glad it was helpful, Elizabeth, and thanks for the feedback! The best of luck with learning, let me know if you have any questions, I may make a video on it.
I've started to learn Brazilian Portuguese lately.. Already spotted a couple of differences between this and European Portuguese. It's really interesting. I really like your attitude, your smile is beautiful 💖
Thank you for your effort and engagement in explanation so many Portuguese language rules. Please, go on promoting European Portuguese. Wonderful series. Great job!
Thank you so much for this helpful video. I have to learn Portuguese for my school and this shall be really helpful for English speakers like me. Obrigadu ❤
Obrigada Maria. Currently on sick leave for a few weeks with a broken ankle and will use this time to learn. I loved reading the feedback from other students ❤Bless your heart!😘
her lessons helps me sow much as a beginner in eu portugal a really good teacher just get a pen and a note book write her lessons im using pc to learn very helpful 👍
Your lessons are absolutely fantastic! They're just what I was looking for to learn Portuguese so I can chat with my Portuguese friend.... eventually!! She's sooooo excited that I'm learning Portuguese! It gets my brain working again too! I love how you pronounce each word & sound slowly, showing mouth & tongue positions so I can work out how to pronounce each sound accurately! Thank YOU!! 🥰Blessings from South Australia💕🐨
tbh i watched and i believe i will watch this vid aging i repeated 100 time atleast i wrote every word you almost in total of 10 pages you cant imagine how useful your teaching is it really helps by alot you deserve better i had to say what was kept on my heart keep up the good work and take care mam
Hello maria i am thanking you for the effort to help people to learn this language. I am new student but i go through i can't see any class that break the pronunciation like you thank you for that i now subscribe you because you are very well clear on the lessons.
Hi, welcome to the channel and thank you for your feedback, it means a lot. Please let me know if you have any questions about the pronunciation, I may make a video about that. The best of luck! :)
It is an excellent video. Superb job! I am Portuguese and am very pleased of finding something "so Portuguese." I know Portuguese but nicely enjoyed this "time back" to the days I had to learn this, then as a child in Portugal. Pode crer que vou recomendar este vídeo a pessoas que conheço e que estão interessadas em aprender a língua portuguesa. Já agora, depois do elefante, do gato e do tigre, que aconteceu com a zebra? Não pode haver "Z" sem "zebra"! Um abraço, bem haja!
Olá, Domingos! Muito obrigada, é uma honra ouvir um comentário destes dum português. Eu sou sérvia, aprendi português na faculadade. :) Agradeceria a recomendação do canal :D Tem razão, falta a zebra, vou refazer o vídeo um dia incluindo-a! :D Um abraço de coração!
@@portuguesewithmaria Maria, para os meus ouvidos é muito estranho ouvir" Eu gosto de elefante" Eu nao sou um professor qualificado como tu,mas ao meu ver ,o correto seria dizer " Gosto de elefantes, amendoins, castanhas, elefantes, gatos etc. Quando tu dizes " Gosto de leões" estás a dizer que gostas dessa especie de animal, e não de um leão em concreto. O exemplo " Gosto de chocolate" é correto, já que chocolate é um substantivo incontável. Claro que a palavra " Chocolates" existe,mas aqui estamos a falar das categorias de chocolates que há no mercado: O chocolate Nestle, o cholate branco,preto, amargo,doce etc.
It took us like one and half hour to go through the lesson.. yet you was incredibly patient and amazingly educational 😅 can’t wait for morning coffee to see you again 😃 Thank you so very much for this great video🍀
That's exactly how much time it takes me to teach it in a class. :) I know the video is very long, but it literally lasts three times more when taught in person so you did a great job.
Maria, Comecei a estudar a lígua portuguesa há uns oito meses. Há uns dias encontrei os teus videos e eles ajumdam-me muito porque sâo ótimos para aprender a fonética. Muito obrigada.
Olá, Dolors, muito obrigada pelo teu comentário, já falas muito bem! :) Caso não tenhas visto, há uma lista inteira dos vídeos dedicada só a fonética e pronúncia, aqui está... th-cam.com/play/PLeen1bOqKBKSFbTxb9MUNaxI72b2PL9yk.html Boa sorte na aprendizagem e desfruta! 😊🌻🌞
@@portuguesewithmaria Obrigada Maria, pela tua resposta, eu já tinha visto alguns videos de fonética, mas agora tenho a lista enteira. Que maravilha!! Vou ve-los e ouvi-los com muita atençâo. Obrigada também pelos tuos votos de boa sorte, sâo motivadores. Até a próxima!!
Thank you for taking the time to make this wonderful video. The Portuguese language (along with Spanish) has always fascinated me. In fact, I have always associated Spanish and Portuguese with each other and treated them as sister languages.
This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. I started a pretty good Portuguese course online, but their philosophy was just to listen, look, and learn, but I could barely tell the difference between certain sounds and wasn't quite sure what the rules were for vowel and consonant phonetics. It was super confusing, since I had assumed it would be just like Spanish, which I had studied in the past. You really need to understand some basic phonetics ... the spelling and pronunciation....before you delve into these other lessons. Otherwise, you aren't really sure of what you're hearing or how to replicate it! Wonderful youtube! Highly recommend it.
OMG!!! You are so patient and intuitive. Thanks for being such an effective teacher. Continue to make your videos I love your teaching style and repetition to help us grasp the concept.
I'm so glad I found this video! The only pronunciation video I've seen that's the right speed, the right balance of examples, and extremely clear. I actually feel like I'll remember a lot of this from just one viewing! I'll be sure to check out your other videos. Any recommendations for Portuguese (from Portugal) youtubers with everyday content (created for natives not learners)?
Your method is very helpful. Your tone and enunciation are clear and soothing as well as encouraging to the learner. I am sure you lead a busy life, but for many of us, your work is extremely helpful in our quest to learn this beautiful language, Portuguese. Thank you and may the New Year bring health and peace to your and your loved ones.
Moving to Portugal soon and I am so worried about the language. However, I am thankful to God that I am conversational in Spanish, as I noticed that probably more than half of the words you used in the examples are very similar or the same as in Spanish (with trickier pronunciations of course). This will probably make it easier for me to learn the language compared to someone who only speaks English. Thanks a lot for the great video.
Hi Maria! Your explanations are so good and your pronunciation gives me confidence that I can learn this language. You are a wonderful teacher. Thank you so much for your hard work!
BY FAR THE BEST TH-cam video I've seen for learning the sounds of a language, and vocabulary learning!! LOVE the slow pronunciation, the repetition, and the use of words in sentences!! PERFECT!! THANK YOU!!
Thank you very much Maria for having other people interest at heart, such a lovely heart you have. This is a good job you are doing. I always the zeal to speak this language. Waiting for more
Great series. We're making our first trip to Portugal in a few weeks and your lessons are really useful. Just knowing a few of the basics will help a lot while exploring a new place. Obrigado!
Hi Maria! Thanks so much for this. I love how slow and detailed you are in the pronunciations and the usage of the alphabet. The examples are great too. You have such a soft and gentle personality which makes it so easy to listen and learn from you. I wish I could converse with you too. I'll definitively subscribe to your channel.
Hi, Vida, thank you so much for the kind words, I'll do my best to keep guiding you through this Portuguese Beginner Course. Have fun. If you need any help, feel free to drop me an email at portuguescommaria@gmail.com. I'll see you around! :)
Excellent video Maria! I really appreciate your style and the way you help me to practice pronunciation for European Portuguese. As a visual learner the special script really helps me. Thank you so much.
Hi, Angela, I' so happy to hear that you found it useful! It's the longest one, it takes time and nerves to go through it, so thanks for watching, and enjoy your learning journey! :)
So very many thanks to you for your European Portuguese language learning web site in which your devotion to correct and precise teaching (for me) literally has renewed Language. Although, a beginner, Portuguese impresses [me] as being an international language and wherein more than eight other languages are identifiable. Upon my very first hearing of the language, immediately had my attention; as well as my will and interest to learn and to speak the same. One cannot enough thank you. For your efforts, be highly and all-around rewarded.and fulfilled.
Thank you so much for the feedback and your kind words, it really made my day. :) When I started learning Portuguese at University, I felt the same way and fell in love with it once and forever. Enjoy your learning journey! :)
Maria, thank you so much for giving your best to make us best. I live in Lisboa since 2.5 years, I am an IT engineer. I loved Portugal so much that I have decided to live here. I am ok with Português but I need to learn properly. Such a soothing personality and the way you pronounce the words are wonders. Stay blessed 🙌. Thank you again.
Ola Maria! This is Bululu from Macao, I just finished watching the first lesson and I hope I could speak fluent Portuguese one day after going through all your lessons! Obrigada ❤
From a language teacher to a language teacher: Great focus, attention to details, phonetic tricksters, rich in examples, excellent knowledge and pronunciation of both languages, calm and poised, without rushing us, just the right number of repetitions ... I like this and I will continue learning my favourite language, Portuguese, with you. I already speak Italian and it is quite similar in the lexical layer, just the phonetics are bit different :)
Back in 2018, I tried to learn portuguese but just couldn't find the right teacher. now I finally found a the best portuguese teacher on the internet, You teach people the baby babies trying to learn the language are supposed to taught. I am hoping that you can create a lesson series on this particular topic, I will share your channel to all my filipino friends on social media to spread your lesson
@@nshimovermd Olivier, Portuguese recognizes masculine and feminine gender in numbers one and two, so we say: umas casas, uns homens, duas casas, dois homens. Dois- masculine, duas- feminine.
I absolutely loved this video! Thank you Maria! I’m Portuguese (but originally from Hawaii) and I’ve been so excited to start my journey to learn the language. My grandma would speak a little here and there but I never learned it. After a month on Duolingo, I learned from a friend how different European vs Brazilian Portuguese is! I’m happy I found your channel and love the way you teach here. :0)
@@marktheunknown1829 It happens with American English, French Canadian, Mexican Spanish ect. Even in the same country you'll find differences in grammar but that doesn't mean it isn't the same language
Thank you! Helping a friend with our church project in Honolulu to say a prayer in Portuguese & am grateful for this video! Very helpful & great.🥰🙏🕯📿💕🌹☘🕊🤙
My wife is Portuguese and after 30 yrs of marriage i ashamedly have not learned to speak the language, this i am to change - just this first class has been brilliant and has set the wheel in motion, also to say the session was perfectly paced and encouraging.
Thank you so much for having the patience to do this. This was amazing. It may sound weird but I even zoomed in on your mouth in order to better imitate the pronunciation, and it helped a lot!
Thanks!

I am sure you lead a busy life, but for many of us, your work is extremely helpful in our quest to learn this beautiful language, Portuguese. Thank you and may the New Year bring health and peace to your and your loved ones.
Thank you so much, Juan, I appreciate you!
@@portuguesewithmariahello teacher how are you I am need you help me
@@portuguesewithmariafisher possible you help me
Moving to Portugal soon and I am so worried about the language. However, I am thankful to God that I am conversational in Spanish, as I noticed that probably more than half of the words you used in the examples are very similar or the same as in Spanish (with trickier pronunciations of course). This will probably make it easier for me to learn the language compared to someone who only speaks English. Thanks a lot for the great video.
Hi Maria! Your explanations are so good and your pronunciation gives me confidence that I can learn this language. You are a wonderful teacher. Thank you so much for your hard work!
Thank you! I'm so glad to hear that it was helpful, good luck, enjoy the learning! :)
BY FAR THE BEST TH-cam video I've seen for learning the sounds of a language, and vocabulary learning!! LOVE the slow pronunciation, the repetition, and the use of words in sentences!! PERFECT!! THANK YOU!!
Glad it was helpful!
I am almost A1/2 level, but your videos for pronunciation are amazing.......muito obrigada

Hi Maria! Thanks so much for this. I love how slow and detailed you are in the pronunciations and the usage of the alphabet. The examples are great too. You have such a soft and gentle personality which makes it so easy to listen and learn from you. I wish I could converse with you too. I'll definitively subscribe to your channel.

I'm so glad to hear that, Kaushik! Thank you for the comment! Blessings. 😊
@@portuguesewithmaria because am also learning Portuguese and now i learn everyday from your channel now am big fan of yours mam muito obrigado...❣️🙏
So very many thanks to you for your European Portuguese language learning web site in which your devotion to correct and precise teaching (for me) literally has renewed Language. Although, a beginner, Portuguese impresses [me] as being an international language and wherein more than eight other languages are identifiable. Upon my very first hearing of the language, immediately had my attention; as well as my will and interest to learn and to speak the same. One cannot enough thank you. For your efforts, be highly and all-around rewarded.and fulfilled.
Thank you so much for the feedback and your kind words, it really made my day. :) When I started learning Portuguese at University, I felt the same way and fell in love with it once and forever. Enjoy your learning journey! :)
Parabéns professora pelo seu esforço em ensinar o "Idioma Português".
Maria, thank you so much for giving your best to make us best. I live in Lisboa since 2.5 years, I am an IT engineer. I loved Portugal so much that I have decided to live here. I am ok with Português but I need to learn properly. Such a soothing personality and the way you pronounce the words are wonders. Stay blessed 🙌. Thank you again.
You are so welcome, Jaspreet! :)
Ola Maria! This is Bululu from Macao, I just finished watching the first lesson and I hope I could speak fluent Portuguese one day after going through all your lessons! Obrigada ❤
Great, the best of luck! :)
From a language teacher to a language teacher: Great focus, attention to details, phonetic tricksters, rich in examples, excellent knowledge and pronunciation of both languages, calm and poised, without rushing us, just the right number of repetitions ... I like this and I will continue learning my favourite language, Portuguese, with you. I already speak Italian and it is quite similar in the lexical layer, just the phonetics are bit different :)
Back in 2018, I tried to learn portuguese but just couldn't find the right teacher. now I finally found a the best portuguese teacher on the internet, You teach people the baby babies trying to learn the language are supposed to taught. I am hoping that you can create a lesson series on this particular topic,
I will share your channel to all my filipino friends on social media to spread your lesson
I’ve just completed this. Congratulations on such a well-planned and well explained course. Enjoyed it.
Hi, thank you so much for the comment! The best of luck and enjoy your learning journey! 😊
Hi!!
You are a magnificent teacher, I am a Spanish speaker and with your classes I learn Portuguese and review English. Thank you!!
Explicação brilhante! Muito obrigado, Maria! Você é uma pessoa muito interessante e ótima professora!
Muito obrigada, Vasiliy! :)
Maria, I'd like to know the difference between those two words dois and duas! When to use Dois(2) or duas(2) ain't the same!??
@@nshimovermd Olivier, Portuguese recognizes masculine and feminine gender in numbers one and two, so we say: umas casas, uns homens, duas casas, dois homens. Dois- masculine, duas- feminine.
@@portuguesewithmaria muito obrigado!!
It's a very useful, I really love your way of teaching.
Plz upload regularly. One of ur big fan from algrave

Your way to teach is as attractive as your smile after every detailed word.
Thank you, Racheel, you're so sweet! 🌻
Thank you for your teaching. This is exactly what I have been looking for! I love your channel! I will be your fan always!
Hi, I'm happy to hear that you find the content useful, thanks for the feedback! :)
Thank you so much for your video. I found your teaching style to be exactly what I needed as someone new to Portuguese
I absolutely loved this video! Thank you Maria! I’m Portuguese (but originally from Hawaii) and I’ve been so excited to start my journey to learn the language. My grandma would speak a little here and there but I never learned it. After a month on Duolingo, I learned from a friend how different European vs Brazilian Portuguese is! I’m happy I found your channel and love the way you teach here. :0)
That's awesome! Welcome to the channel, and the best of luck in learning! :)
It's not that different, is just the accent that sounds different.
@@SirCasticoo Not only the accent, but also some grammar is different
@@marktheunknown1829 It happens with American English, French Canadian, Mexican Spanish ect. Even in the same country you'll find differences in grammar but that doesn't mean it isn't the same language
@@SirCasticoo nobody said they are different languages
Thank you! Helping a friend with our church project in Honolulu to say a prayer in Portuguese & am grateful for this video! Very helpful & great.🥰🙏🕯📿💕🌹☘🕊🤙
My wife is Portuguese and after 30 yrs of marriage i ashamedly have not learned to speak the language, this i am to change - just this first class has been brilliant and has set the wheel in motion, also to say the session was perfectly paced and encouraging.
Iºm so happy to hear that, Crimp, keep up the good work! :)
excellent lesson. Thank you very much
You're very welcome, thanks for the comment!🌻🌞
Thank you so much for having the patience to do this. This was amazing. It may sound weird but I even zoomed in on your mouth in order to better imitate the pronunciation, and it helped a lot!
a sure thing, that's why learning with a video is always a plus. You can also adjust the speed of the video in the settings.
