[@andrecastanho3186]

I only desagree about one sound, the open "o" (/ɔ/). I don't think comparing it to the word "hot" was the best option. The "o" in "hot" in British accent would sound more like this sound in Portuguese, however, in the United States many speakers pronounce the "o" in "hot" just like the "a" in "father". And that's not me saying, Cambridge Dictionary brings the phonetic transcription for these words and they are /ˈfɑ·ðər/ for "father" and /hɑt/ for "hot". I think a better comparison would be with the word "law" (/lɔ/), that has the sound /ɔ/, which is a match for the Portuguese open "o". Another thing, in the word "oliveira", it's not that the "o" isn't pronounced as the video showed, but as this "o" is in unstressed position, it may vary in Brazil. Southern dialects tend to pronounce it just like the video showed, however, northern dialects tend to pronounce it as the open "o". Vowels in stressed position, however, do not change from one dialect to another. Besides that, I think this video was really helpful for learners of Portuguese!

[@matthaios_]

Even in the UK most people don't pronounce the O in hot like the Ó in Portuguese. Most people nowadays realise it as [ɒ], which sounds more like /o/ in Portuɡuese, rather than /ɔ/

[@amandavargas4296]

Im glad you observed this, I'm from the US and "hot" didn't quite seem to match the sound....the "awe" in awesome was what came to mind when I heard it....

[@Alkis05]

@@amandavargas4296 the open "o" is more like "awe". There is no equivalent to the vowel in "hot" in portuguese. Actually, it took me a long time to even notice the difference. We are the ones that pronounce the 'o' in hot as our open "o".

[@planetalingua8276]

For me the hardest vowel sound to pronounce was probably the nasalized u, but I did have some prior practise with Yoruba ;) I still find it difficult to systematically include closed/open vowel as part of the important information to remember when learning a new word. Thanks for the lesson!

@@lucasdepaula705 kkkkk nós temos cinco letras ( a, e, i, o, u). Letra não deve ser confundida com som/fonema. Letras são apenas sinais que usamos pra representar os sons na escrita. A parte interessante é que o "nome" dessas cinco letras são sons que pronunciamos em muitas palavras. Porém não temos só cinco sons/ fonemas vocálicos no português. Uma mesma letra pode ter diferentes sons. Preste atenção na letra O no começo das palavras Obra e Olho. Em Obra ,O, tem o mesmo som da palavra avÓ, e em Olho, O, tem o mesmo som da palavra avÔ. Agora preste atenção na letra E no começo das palavras Ele e Ela. Em Ele, E tem o mesmo som final da palavra vocÊ e em Ela, E tem o mesmo som final da palavra fÉ. E por último preste atenção na som da letra A , nas Palavras LÁ e LÃ. No caso da palavra LÃ, a gente tem o sinal gráfico til sendo usado pra indicar que essa letra tem uma pronúncia diferente, nesse caso uma pronúncia nasalisada, indicando que é um som nasal , ou seja que o som sai tanto pelo nariz quanto pela boca. Se você colocar os dedos no nariz e apertar de leve e falar /a/ como em já , não vai sentir o nariz vibrar. Agora quando você fala /ã/ como em Là ou maçÃ, você sente o nariz vibrar. Se não colocássemos o Til sobre o A na palavra pão, a pronúncia ia ser /pau/, kkkk.

[@alexarnl]

This video is very helpful, especially for people who have a lot of trouble with open and closed vowels, the most difficult sound for me is the "ó" sound.

[@johnpjcoyle]

I agree with you, Alexis. Please see my reply above where I deal with this aspect of the pronunciation of Portuguese. Many of the books on Portuguese tell us the open "o" sound is like the "o" in hot, but that is not true. I'm surprised that this lesson would make the same mistake.

[@armandoalmeida4414]

+John Coyle This is Brazilian Portuguese, not European portuguese from Portugal.

[@alexarnl]

Olá, obrigado por me dares mais exemplos, já consegui identificar o som desse 'o', mas ainda é difícil para mim incorporá-lo a certas palavras porque sou falante nativo de espanhol e no meu idioma também existem palavras como "historia" ou "famosa", mas pronunciamos o 'o' sempre fechado, por isso acho muito difícil pronunciar palavras como essas com sons abertos.

[@mapasinterativos2796]

John Coyle O in Brazilian Portuguese spelled like O of the Hot is the O of the words Roça and Carroça for exemple.

[@Drible_curto]

it depends of the accent, you choose how you want to pronounce

[@johnpjcoyle]

Regarding the open "o" sound, I disagree that it has the same sound as the "o" in "hot." I have been studying Portuguese for about 5 years now, and believe me, it took me a long time to realize this. It sounds more like the sound you use when you pronounce the words "awe" or "bought." If you listen closely to Jade, you will notice that she uses that sound when she pronounces the word examples that you give, such as the word "famosa."

[@alexarnl]

+John Coyle Thanks for the clarification, I looked it up and it turns out you are correct, the words "awe" and "bought" do have that ɔ sound which is supposed to be mid-open, whilst the "o" in "hot" produces a sound that is slightly more open.

[@johnpjcoyle]

+Alexis Perales Thanks for your reply, Alexis. The "o" in "hot" is exactly the same sound as the "a" in the word "cama," the word for bed. For that reason, I cannot understand how any syllable in Portuguese with the open "o" could be said to produce that sound. It would have to be spelled with an "a" rather than an "o." Perhaps in some parts of Brazil they pronounce the "o" that way, but I doubt it.

[@armandoalmeida4414]

+John Coyle We from Portugal, we don´t pronounce the " o " in hot, or " a " from Cup or Hat . We pronounce the open " o " as awe or more.

[@andrecastanho3186]

+John Coyle I think you are right. I am Brazilian and I think the "o" in "hot" isn't the most accurate for open "o" in Portuguese. The "o" of "bought" is indeed closer, and another example could be the "o" in "cost". In both cases I think the "o" is more similar to that we have in Portuguese. Even so, for a matter of accent, European Portuguese tend to have closer sounds than those we have in Brazil. I don't mean that European Portuguese doesn't have open sounds, just like the "o" you pointed, I just mean that in Brazil they're more open in general.

[@matheussilva8194]

For nasal vowels, you can add "ng" sound to them, but it's relaxed, you don't need to force the sound, .For example, if you want to say floor, "chão", pronounce it like " shang- oo", but the g is silent. In Portuguese, when the letters n and m come after a vowel, it also creates this sound. I know it's hard, since in English, you would go all the way with your tongue ( n) and lips (m), but just cut the g sound in that "ng".

[@Baiev]

You can know it when you hold your nose on midle part and you feel the vibration in your nose during you speak the words like: pÃo, cÃo, limÃo, tambÉm, mÃe...

[@viniciusaguiar1845]

Leave your index finger horizontally between your nostrils and the upper lip, that way you can feel the air flowing out of your nose. The diference between oral vowels and nasalized vowels is that when you nasalize correctly, air flows both through your mouth and nose, whereas an oral vowel would make the air flow completely through your mouth. Give it a try, speak a normal oral vowel and you won't feel any air/warmth with your finger :) But when speaking ã/em/im/õ/um you should!! (sorry I don't have the IPA signs for all of the vowels so I used an M to indicate nasalization)

is there a rule for knowing how to pronounce the a's (the first two ones except the nasal one which obviously before n or m)??????

[@Joao-cm6uv]

that's exactly why the accents in Portuguese exist (although most of the times they doesn't show) the open sounds receive a ´ (acute accent) so "á, é, í, ó and ú" always have an opened sound the closed sounds receive a ^ (circumflex accent) so "â, ê and ô" always have a closed sound the nasal sounds receive a ~ (tilde)... so "ã and õ" always have a nasal sound ...or it'll show up when the vowels are next to the consonants "m" and "n", that's the reason why even though the vowels "i", "e" and "u" can not receive a tilde (~) they are able produce a nasal sound too

[@joaoandrade2828]

It's brazilian portuguese.

[@debruyne809]

There is no such language as Brazilian. The difference that exists is just like British and American pronunciation

[@andraslang96]

i could not see difference between grandfather and grandmother :(

[@matheussilva8194]

Avó ( grandmother) is pronounced "a h-vaw" (in english), avô ( grandfather ) is " ah- voh". Notice you need to cut the w sound in the end.

[@skylight0656]

Aprender inglês é muito fácil, mas eu que não nasci lá, simplesmente não sei português! What's your country?

[@thisis5583]

It is not clearly explained.

[@sannkettambe]

U is sound difficult

[@nursultanissayev6644]

Those "ã, ú, õ " letters pronounced by Brazilian chick creates some dirty minds in my head 😋😋😋

[@jhyz84]

Honestly, for people who struggle with that nasal sound, that's actually a helpful way to get it.

[@djacidkingcidguerreiro9780]

That is NOT how Portuguese sounds. It is how Brazilian sounds. Not the same thing. Brazilian is to Portuguese what Haitian is the French or Scottish and Jamaican are to English. They are variants, not the "real" thing. I'm a native Portuguese speaker and I can't understand what most Brazilians say.

[@cleitondecarvalho431]

When the learners will find out that the closed o can turn into the open o just by changing number and gender, they will cry Mwa ha ha Ha ha ha ha. ☠️

[@AnakinMSMP]

I cried already, there is avó and avô here already
