Great vid.

When you demonstrate the pronunciation, you should repeat it 10 times, not just once. It is important for beginners.

Thank you for your feedback! In the interest of keeping the videos short, we did not repeat the pronunciation several times. However, we can definitely understand how this is important for training your ears! Do feel free to replay the parts you need as many times as you need 🙂

Another thing you can do is write the timestamp in your comment for the sound you want to repeat, then click it to replay from that moment, which you can do as many times as you like

3:41 avô - the IPA for the a should be an upside down a, no?

[@karaiwonder]

Exactly... in Portuguese from Portugal (the one being spooken here) you have that sound. In Brazilian Portuguese is /a/

[@ivomoreira42]

In Brazilian Portuguese is [ɐ] and in European Portuguese is slightly higher approaching [ɜ]. You can think of it as the English schwa, when it's in a stressed word it's going to sound more like the Brazilian version as in "nut", but in "again" the first "a" is like the European one. I hope it helps!
