There is nothing that warms a Portuguese heart more than foreigners trying to learn Portuguese! And yes: we always find your accent cute! 🥰

[@andrepereira744]

"we" ? Speak for yourself!

Great teacher you are, you were born for the Job. as a Portugues I would like to thank you for making Portugal Home and teaching my language to others. I love what you do, you are a blessing to my Country . Your Country too. God bless you .

[@terrirojas]

i too am Portuguese and I love that your id has the word "cleaning" in it. ha ha ha. If we're not cleaning something we don''t know what to do with ourselves! ha ha

You are the best teacher of European Portuguese out there! Keep up the good work!

[@TheMpcav]

I'm Portuguese and I still watched this video until the end ahaha. Very good XD

[@tiagocoelho7642]

Another quick tip: just like "You're welcome" is slowly been replaced in colloquial speech by phrases like "no problem" or "no worries", I've found that there's 2 pretty common expressions, mainly used amongst the younger generations, that also replace the portuguese counterpart of "You're welcome", i,e. "De nada": "Sem problema" (which roughly translates to "no problem" or "no worries") and "Na boa" (a less formal option that means something along the lines of "it's all good" )

[@dudanunesbleff]

Na boa is only used among young people, it's slang.

[@tiagocoelho7642]

@@dudanunesbleff I did say "mainly used amongst the younger generations" and I also mentioned that it's colloquial speech. I even mentioned that it's "less formal" than "sem problema". I don't know what more do you want from me.

Honestly u sound and look like a native. Great obversation. Even though I'm a Portuguese living in UK I never realized many things about Portugal in general until u've point them out, as to me them just come out naturally 😅 and I'm used to them! So great job and keep it up.

Best teacher on KZbin and far beyond.

You're a brilliant instructor; your clear enunciation makes this sooo much easier!!👍

[@matinalarsson4149]

Obrigado pelas dez dicas .. Thanks Liz Greetings from Sweden !

[@SimpletonPortuguese]

The "cedilha" is crucial when saying "força". Because people wouldn't feel as much at ease if you went around saying "forca" (gallows) to them.

[@HMartins-351]

Perfeito.

[@northofyou33]

I am enjoying your videos. One suggestion. I know my memory only works with lots of repetition. I'd love to see you do the same sort of thing you're doing now, only with less English, and more repetition of the Portuguese phrases in different contexts. Thanks!

[@Becky_Cal]

I love the “posso?” tip. I lived in Mexico City and it’s a society of extreme politeness. Many of the tips here translate to how daily life is lived there. For example, it’s common before stepping into someone’s house or if someone is blocking an entrance to smile and say “Puedo?” Same meaning, may I (please is inferred)? Another example is Obrigada, Eu. If you buy something at a shop and tell the owner or person who works there “Thank you” they say, “No (please), on the contrary.” Gracias…no, al contrario. Same sentiment as “Obrigada, eu.”

[@Sekhonnavjot]

Thanks

[@aiTraderCoach]

Great content by beleza Liz! I am on the way B2+ and I am astonished how helpful this phrases are in my daily life ... My favourites: obrigado/a eu and não faz mal | ótimo 💫

[@changeperspective-followth2610]

Excellent, thank you. So easy to understand your accent. Look forward to viewing more of your lessons.

[@vkyamen5788]

Thanks, Liz

[@louisedavey3603]

thank you 🙂

E Então is more like a question.It's like Afinal? or Como é que é? or Como é que fica? E Então? Can also be a salutation when you meet a friend or someone you already know.It's implicit in the expression E Então(está tudo bem or estás bem)? Portuguese is a vast Language with many, many, many options for the same words or expressions. But you are doing very well in Portugal. Bôa Continuação!

[@AtrolleynaTrain]

The string of ways we can express instant perception of something (or pretending we do) is rather abundant; so, alongside 'percebi' and 'entendi', you might try 'compreendi' or '(es)tou a ver'. The last one translates to your very much common 'I see...'

[@lucyheartfilia1819]

I am a native Portuguese and only now have I understood that we do "swallow" so many syllables 😅🤣I'm sorry if we are difficult to understand. I guess that because we hear words that already have "swallowed" syllables since we are very, very little, we don't really realize it when it happens.

[@rejoalgarve5105]

Also a good one, and useable to use when ever, is: pois 😉

[@LHollan]

Em ambientes formais percebo que é mais usado “entender” em vez de “perceber”. Mesmo no vídeo que a federação portuguesa fez com a federação espanhola de futebol, o verbo usado em português é entender, também em publicidade na televisão é mais comum encontrar o verbo entender. Então acho que em Portugal usa-se entender e perceber e no Brasil usa-se perceber apenas para situações específicas

[@fernandocosta7784]

Sim na mouche e não na mosca ... quero dizer com isto, que a colonização pelas telenovelas brasileiras da SIC ... continua a fazer o seu caminho, meio tortuoso, para ajudar os macacos de imitação na procura da originalidade televisiva Global ...que é enorme, ou paroquial, conforme os gostos ...

[@Evaristo_YT]

No Brasil, não é comum o uso do verbo perceber para indicar a compreensão de algo, seja em um ambiente formal ou informal. Cá usamos: ter ciência, compreender e entender. Ademais, julgo que se usar perceber, as pessoas não entenderão de imediato o que está a dizer.

[@StrawberryPrincess6]

[@TheExpeditionUK]

In Madeira I hear "ta log" or "te log" a lot, which I think is something like the Spanish "hasta la luego" -- but of course with the usual 90% of letters missing.

[@TalktheStreets]

Yes, all around Portugal people say "até logo", but because it's so fast and locals drop off letters, it sound like "té log" ☺️
