Olá Andrew, sou brasileira e professora de portugues para estrangeiros. Um aluno me indicou os seus vídeos e desde então eu tenho acompanhado o seu canal. O seu conteúdo é excelente e agora eu recomendo para todos os meus alunos. Obrigada!
I’m here trying to learn the Brazilian Portuguese but the real street Portuguese that every Brazilian speaks in podcast like ufc Brazilian fighters and I really support you and hopefully learn from you a lot
Great to have you here! Yes, the real street Portuguese that you hear UFC fighters is very different from what you learn from textbooks and apps! Thank you for your support and I will continue strive to make my channel better and better for you.
In the past, some Brazilian friends (all Cariocas and not linguists) have given me confusing and inconsistant guidance on this subject. Your video is clear and makes sense. For a foreigner, there is an attraction to just using você (and a gente) for simplicity - not just for conjugations but, if you speak a language which no longer uses formal and informal pronouns, not worrying about which to use.
Appreciate it! Was there something in particular about "nós" and "a gente" that you don't understand? It's pretty straightforward, "nós" is the standard form which you see more in the written language & "a gente" is the colloquial form and more common in everyday speech. "Nós" has its own set of conjugations, while "a gente" uses the 3rd person singular.

One great thing about your lessons is I can delve into any one of them at random and learn something significant that helps me.
So glad you're finding them useful!!!

Awesome videos, Andrew!. Looking forward to your video comparing "nós" and "a gente" in Brazil.

This was very helpful. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
In Urdu/punjabi we use Tu, means the same. It’s in many Indo European languages
Yes! I get to ignore grammar completely! 😂😂😂

Very useful 🎉
