Another comment on tipping. I took my hosts out for a meal in February and went to pay the bill, and told the staff to keep the change. "What's that for?" the man asked with incomprehension. This was in the backwoods of the north east, so it may be that tipping is more common in the Litoral or Algarve.
Liz, we love the practical tips that really stick! So cute the "inho" tips. In Swabian German, we like go put a "le" (pronounced "leh") on the end of things. I love that the Portuguese do it this way. Tschuessle! Tchauzinho!
My husband is Portuguese & we have been together 7 years & will move to central Portugal next year. I am at the point where I understand quite a lot & know many words. Linking the words together to make conversation is another matter & the whole idea of trying fills me with nerves & dread😢
Olá Andrea, exciting move! I'd love to help you out with Portuguese 😊 I have an online beginners program that you might be interested in. The best way to learn more is to check out my free lesson for beginners here: www.talkthestreets.com/speak-portuguese-like-a-pro here is the link, I hope it's helpful!
This is a few years back now, but I remember often leaving the change as a tip in the cafe, maybe like 83c and my Portuguese friends being scandalized - It's FAR too much, take those coins back, 13c will be plenty! 😂
Hi! It depends on your goals: are you going to visit Brazil or Portugal? Where will you be spending more time? Do you have connections in these countries?
@@33nguyenhuuthang31If I were you, I would just listen to both languages from native speakers and decide according to which one sounds nicer for me. Because writing is quite similar, pronunciation is different. By the way there are lots of content for brazilian portuguese however limited for european.
@@33nguyenhuuthang31it depends… if you want to come to Portugal you have to learn the European Portuguese… It depends on your goals. In Portugal we speak European Portuguese… you can always learn both.
There no such thing as European Portuguese of indeed Brazilian, Angolan, Mizambique Portotuguese, there is ONLY PORTUGUESE! It's as stupid as saying American, Canadian or Australian English.
no one said they are separate languages. they are different dialects and accents that appeared due to historical, cultural, and geopolitical influences. same with English. so no need to be rude, you surely know that there are differences between Brazilian and other variations of Portuguese.
@@lmxtn1what he’s saying is that it makes no sense to distinguish the language from its place of origin. This would be Portuguese, and the one spoken in America would be Brazilian Portuguese. The ones spoken in Mozambique and Angola would be Angolan Portuguese and Mozambican Portuguese. Etc.
Makes sense to distinguish as other platforms don't and then you find out its Brazilian Portuguese when your girlfriend says you've learned all the wrong dialect 😅😅
@@hannahwalmer1124 The one Portuguese spoken in America would not necessarily be Brazilian Portuguese. There are some Brazilians who speak Brazilian Portuguese here in the Northeast section of the USA. However, in area, there are many immigrants from continental Portugal and from the Azores and these people do not speak Brazilian Portuguese. David Franco-Rocha

Can have a guess as to where Portotuguese is spoken?
