Maria, I just got back from a week's worth of vacation in Portugal and although I ended up conversing more in English than Portuguese I did step into a padaria and ordered a cafe and a meia-de-leite to go (para levar) quite confidently. The problem arose when the barista spoke fast Portuguese back at which time I threw up my hands and said 'Meu portugues e mau'. But glad I tried. I will keep watching your videos but please include videos on how to comprehend fast Portuguese

It helps your Portuguese teacher, real or imaginary, in my case real, sets you homework of only speaking in Portuguese. I took up her suggestion with enthusiasm, getting her to agree that, in my case, the homework, should never finish. Even if they insist upon practicing their English with you, carry on in Portuguese. Allow them and yourself to use Google Translate or whatever other translation app you use, on your phone for anything you're not sure about, but keep sticking to your homework! Write down and save copies of your new words and phrases as you go. I'm an immigrant in Portugal, but have found this to be helpful as a tactic in Portuguese and in other languages I've learnt (Greek, Italian, French, Spanish (and even tiny smatterings of German and Serbian). You could also target Portuguese cafés and community centres for your homework when not on holiday, saying it's your homework!

"meia-de-leite to go" I never seen my padaria serving meias-de-leite even less to go (takeaway????) there aren't even chairs to sit down. There is a company called "Padaria Portuguesa" but that's more like a Café/pastelaria, I didn't know you could takeaway liquids.

@@lxportugal9343 Ah well I might have left out a minor detail about the establishment where I got my meia-de-leite. It was, as you pointed out "Padaria Portuguesa" in Foz De Douro, Porto. I did have trouble getting a takeaway coffee at an unassuming cafe deep in the heart of Alfama but I took that as an opportunity to have a sit down cafe surrounded by history.

A lot of accumulated passive vocabulary. The only way to fix it is to go out and put in practice. Don't think about the mistakes, just rest assured that you are capable of expressing everything you want. If you make some mistakes today, it will be better tomorrow. There's no other way to become fluent. Also, practice speaking on your own at home, or at least, read out loud. That helps up overcome the fear of hearing our voice in another language.

@portuguesewithmaria Жыл бұрын
It's always welcome, but not obligatory. Normally, you would just round up the bill, so we're talking cents. It also depends on the bill. The higher the bill, it's common to leave a bit more. The waiters' wage does not depend on the tip, that's something extra they receive, and it's nice to leave a little something. If you want to say- keep the change that's: "isso é para si"- that is for you (literally).

And also: sometimes two words are pronounced as one. Thank you for your lessons. I keep studying.

Hi, I'm sorry, I know nothing about Dutch phonetics so I can't follow your comment either. That's actually why I always insist on the IPA as it's internationally accepted. The only thing I tell for sure is that 18 is never reduced to /zoit/ but /dzojtu/ if you want to shorten it as much as possible. The same with 17... I can't follow your pronunciation because you're referring to your native language, but it is for sure not reduced to /zasete/, it's /dzaset/

Хвала на коментару али ништа нисам разумела, као што верујем ни ви не разумнете када ја пишем на мом матерњем језику, српском. :D

Very useful info. I don't know if it's true all over Portugal, but the word "cappuccino" has a different meaning compared to the rest of the Europe. Just ask for "chinesa"

Honestly, I've never heard of that word in Lisbon, in a coffee context, lol. One of my learners from Madeira told me they use that word there...

Hi, thank you for your feedback. I'll do my best. In the meantime, you can also slow it down in the video settings. :)
