Steemfest has arrived in Lisbon! Unfortunately I can't be with you, so instead I have done a Portuguese phrase video for you. I have tried using phrases that you won't read in the books, in the hope that you come across even more interesting and crazy than you already are!

You may notice my accent is quite Brazilian, that's because even though I can't actually speak Portuguese, I have taken the accent from the wonderful film Ciudad De Deus otherwise known as, City Of God.

Unfortunately dtube is messing me about so I have posted the Youtube video instead. Enjoy!

Bear with me...

As a Floridian it is really messing with my head. It sounds like an off spanish.

Or Spanish with your mouth full :-) It looks very similar when written down, however it has a far greater range of sounds, so can be harder to pronounce.

I find the South American style easier to understand, because they speak it in a more Latin way, as opposed to the Portuguese who sometimes to my ear sound a bit Slavic.

Get a phrase book, if you speak Spanish it will help you to read the phrases as well as hear them :-)

I am better at reading spanish versus speaking. But I would love to be fluent :D.

Me too; and you will find that will translate somewhat to Portuguese, in fact you'll find that phrases you just didn't understand when you hear them will make sense when you read them.

My Spanish is OK, by definition I'm fluent, however I'd love to get super fluent at it, where I can switch effortlessly without thinking and understand most accents :-)

Look, I'm going to be nice and not flag you, but please listen to this @maliksaqib123.

Your rep is 11 because people keep flagging you because you're spamming posts with your links. Nobody will see your posts if you keep doing this and you won't get votes, which is the opposite of what you want.

Lol. Have fun learning language. I remember when I was learning japanese, I got lazy to even continue cuz I always forget. Hahaha
^_^

Thanks, I'm thinking of starting Portuguese at the same time as Chinese. Maybe they are different enough not to get confused.

Practice, practice, practice! :-)

Yeah will be hard for you. I can't do that. It will confuse me. I'm 1/4 Chinese but don't know a single language lol. Good luck 🤗
