[@marioc.7714]

I’m Portuguese. From the Azores. I love the way you speak English. And the way you speak Portuguese is really outstanding. Keep up the good work.

[@TalktheStreets]

Muito obrigada!

[@azevedoplumbing]

Both my parents are from Pico . I was born in California but I visit in the summers . My soul belongs in the Azores

[@DoneSonjaMiguel]

Left sao miguel a year ago, the language on the islandês .....good luck😂 ​@@azevedoplumbing

[@janetrevellbarrett6031]

I am traveling in Portugal at the moment. Before I left the states, I practiced these 30 phrases and listened to your terrific video multiple times. I am having such fun rolling these out, and watching the look of surprise when I am actually understood. Thank you for these useful videos, which I will recommend to others.

[@TalktheStreets]

Wonderful, I'm so glad!

[@fernandotavares1337]

Obrigado! I was born in Portugal but immigrated to U. S. 60+ years ago and I am ashamed that you speak better than I. Continue the good work!

[@TalktheStreets]

Muito obrigada!

[@bikramthapa480]

Nunca vi um professor no KZbin que falasse inglês puro, português como você. Muito obrigado senhora por me ensinar tanto. Regards from Bikram Thapa all the way from South Eastern, Barahakshetra Municipality, Sunsari district Nepal. Tenho observado você desde os últimos quatro anos no KZbin. Você é meu melhor professor.

[@kevinmurphy5682]

Just a note to thank you Liz for the time and obvious effort you've put into making these videos. We have just returned from our first (most certainly not our last visit) and your videos, my dreadful pronunciation, and willingness to engage the local folks made our vacation. The 30 day challenge, numbers and survival Portuguese all added to our enjoyment of a brilliant country! Thanks again

[@TalktheStreets]

Thank you so much, I'm so glad!! :)

2:29 No Brasil, alguns vendedores podem desejar brincar quando usamos “queria um café”. Eles podem dizer brincando “não quer mais café então?” Mas funciona. Queria um café, um pão com manteiga…

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

7:20 No Brasil você pode dizer “que horas são”. Isso soa como “oração”. Alguns engraçadinhos podem responder dizendo “Ave Maria”, como referência à “Oração”. Se acontecer, não ligue, logo depois dizem a hora certa.

[@afrocyberdelia]

Ora pro nobis = pereskia😂

[@louiselamoureux8688]

yes thanks

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

3:20 No Brasil podemos usar também o “eu que agradeço”.

[@claudiasantos7491]

I am from Brazil and just found your channel, I am learning portuguese dialect/accent, thank you, your portuguese is marvelous, I love it. Obrigada!

[@TalktheStreets]

You're very welcome!

[@nargisalmas2359]

obrigada eu for teaching in such a nice way

[@zeynepela9762]

Once again great content presented brilliantly! Muito obrigada Liz.

[@TalktheStreets]

You're so welcome!

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

E aí? Tudo bem? Tudo certo? Beleza? Também se ouve no Brasil.

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

3:55 No Brasil quando o pedido de licença é apressado, você pode ouvir somente a palavra “licença pfv”. Pfv=por favor.

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

13:26 que legal, que jóia, que bacana, da hora, também se ouve no Brasil.

[@yogainfo]

That was amazing! Obrigado.

[@adrianwhyatt1425]

Great for revision! For some of us there's no metro nearby....so will need to substitute a estaçāo de comboio (the train station) or a paragem (de autocarro) (the bus) stop.

[@TalktheStreets]

Good idea!

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

6:35 Brasil você pode dizer também “fecha a minha conta” ou “a conta pfv”.

[@HelenFyles]

Obrigada❤!

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

8:06 No Brasil você pode dizer, “como se fala em português?”

[@srgtv9705]

é realmente um vídeo muito informativo

[@MamadouSylla-e5d]

Hi , I just moved to portugal lisboa and your videos are so helpful.

[@johncanter6584]

I have many Brazilian in Japan, apologies early because. They all will all listen to me practicing with them.

[@stephencollinge976]

Thank you Liz, hopefully some of these phrases will stick in my head.Repetition is the key i think.

[@TalktheStreets]

Absolutely!

[@ogator8642]

I am just about to get on a plane from Toronto to Ponta Delgada. I will use all of these phrases and many more. Obrigado, Liz.

[@TalktheStreets]

So exciting! Let me know how you get on!

[@chrisboa]

Thank you for this one, Liz. I really enjoyed it and have a good feeling to make progress finally 🙏

[@TalktheStreets]

You're so welcome!

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

12:45 “Não tem problema” ou “sem problema” também se houve no Brasil.

[@afrocyberdelia]

"se ouve". O "H" não é usado nessa palavra ALICANTE SPAIN

[@dereckwainwright3965]

Thanks for a fantastic tutorial.

[@pedrosousa3563]

I'm fascinated by this video. Rarely someone does portuguese pronunciation. Of course there are some details to work on but you are almost Portuguese. Many congratulations on your work. You have a fan. Finally someone knows that "João" is pronouced like "awn" and not "Aw". Very good indeed. Keep up the good job! Anything you need, feel free to ask!

[@TalktheStreets]

Muito obrigada pelo comentário! Fico muito feliz 😊

[@leonardocosta730]

Muito obrigado por trazer o café. Onde fica o banheiro. Pode trazer o cardápio por favor.

[@TalktheStreets]

Frases muito úteis! Just a couple of small changes: banheiro should be casa de banho, and cardápio, even though it is correct, it's not so popular - so I recommend "carta" or "menu" :)

[@leonardocosta730]

Obrigado. Trabalho em uma empresa de Portugal, a EDP.

[@costagodwin1436]

How much for the course?

[@nurealam-q9y]

vídeo muito útil para aprender a língua portuguesa

[@TalktheStreets]

Obrigada!

[@Travelers32]

Obrigado Senhora❤

[@ErhanŞimşek-c2f]

we just started to learn Portuguese and it is good fun to follow your lessons

[@TalktheStreets]

I'm so glad!

[@DagmarMetzler]

Yes!

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

Muito legal Liz, conheci você com o Léo. Obrigado!

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

No Brasil você poder ouvir simplesmente “quer sentar?”. É comum no metrô de São Paulo, quando alguém oferece o assento a um idoso.

[@RodrigoFlrSouza]

Meu amigo, não me leve a mal mas, aparentemente você gostou muito do vídeo da professora, respondendo a todas as questões com o "jeitão" brasileiro, não faça isso em excesso, pode confundir quem está aprendendo pois o foco é o Português Europeu

[@chanitasusewi7960]

You're fantastic! I absolutely loved this video! muito obrigada!!

[@TalktheStreets]

De nada!! :)

[@riodacruz]

Thank you for your explanation and your explanation was helpful i feel understand. Keep going do it more

[@nargisalmas2359]

love your way of teaching i saw this vedeo so many times

[@TalktheStreets]

Glad to hear that!

[@kennedwardtenorio]

All these restaurant phrases are the most helpful! Obrigadíssimo, Liz! 💯

[@TalktheStreets]

Glad it was helpful!

[@OphirYahav]

Muito obrigado pelo video muito util. Feliz e Próspero Ano Novo.

[@TalktheStreets]

De nada! Bom Ano! 😊

[@chipandmargerandall1813]

Just found your site. Perfect for my upcoming trip to Portugal in September. Thanks, Chip

[@TalktheStreets]

Awesome!

[@asmithmdskate]

Thanks for this video - as this morning I was trying to find where I'd printed the 30 phrases! Your course is great, and I'm still learning and reviewing!

[@TalktheStreets]

Fantastic! Thank you so much!

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

8:23 Gostei muito! Gostei demais!

[@sangeetaS7]

Obrigada, I now try to talk to myself.

[@Iamamber777]

This is nini I like the way you speak English and the way you translate to Portuguese ❤

[@TalktheStreets]

Obrigada!

[@DianeMacartney]

Hi Liz - In October I'm going to visit two of the Azore Islands, Sao Miguel and Pico, so I"ve been watching a couple of your videos to learn basic Portugese phrases. Really enjoying them, and will practice, practice !

[@TalktheStreets]

That's awesome!

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

10:46 Brasil = Pode me deixar aqui. Fico aqui mesmo.

[@aeb3598]

Really super elucidation with phonetics & I love it to watch & comprehend

[@TalktheStreets]

Thanks!

[@mahmudhosan9593]

Obrigado ❤❤❤

[@magbstyle]

[@FarahAshokaYogAshoka]

Hi! These are so helpful! Thanks!! Unfortunately I couldn’t find the downloadable document.

[@TalktheStreets]

I'm so glad! Everything you need is in the description :)

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

2:24 Aqui no Brasil, se você disser, “me vê (verbo ver) um café”, também vão entender. Ou, “você pode me ver um café por favor”?

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

16:50 🇧🇷 Estou aprendendo português.

[@davesylvia1162]

yes, especially with my pronunciation. People think I'm a native and start rattling off rapid conversation! Scary for me.

[@ginabee1212]

This video makes me want to learn more Portuguese. I like your style!

[@TalktheStreets]

Awesome, I'm so glad! My free lesson for beginners is a great place to get started: www.talkthestreets.com/speak-portuguese-like-a-pro

[@lorimagnificent8329]

I’m looking forward to trying to learn some of the phrases. Thank you so much!

[@TalktheStreets]

You're so welcome!

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

4:21 No Brasil, você pode dizer: onde fica o banheiro? Onde é o banheiro?

[@afrocyberdelia]

Portuguese, much like English, offers great freedom in the choice of accent. If someone wants to learn this language, they can choose to focus on European Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese, or African Portuguese, reflecting the diversity of the Lusophone world. This freedom is similar to what we find in English: it’s possible to learn a British, American, African, Australian, or even Indian accent. Today, thanks to the internet, everyone has access to this rich variety of pronunciations, making language learning even more exciting and personalized. French doesn’t offer as much variety - does that perhaps feel frustrating for you?

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

5:06 até logo ou até mais, também podem ser ouvidos no Brasil.

[@skurinski]

mas estamos a falar de Portugal não do Brasil, portanto não sei porque está a responder...

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

Só porque eu posso. Ou não posso?

[@vkyamen5788]

Obrigada

[@parvez007vhora7]

Your learning awesome Portuguese language ❤

[@mdbahermerchantuddin6881]

I watching and surprised how to teach nickey. WOW❤

[@lucioflaviodemagalhaesbrito]

8:55 No Brasil você vai ouvir “sacola”. Quer sacola? Sim, duas sacolas!

[@ahmadwaqas334]

I really appreciate your work obrigada

[@TalktheStreets]

You are so welcome!

[@lilimello1643]

No Brasil: Onde fica o banheiro/toilette? (Where is the loo/restroom?)

[@PlanetImo]

Obrigada, Liz!

[@TalktheStreets]

De nada!

[@dylancarvalho-tb7ih]

[@TalktheStreets]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@caterinazeni1673]

I'm very interested in your methods. Keep in touch

[@TalktheStreets]

I'm so glad! My weekly YT lessons return next Tuesday!

[@andrearapp47]

This is kind of a random comment, but I've been writing my grocery list in Portuguese and it's really helped my vocabulary

[@TalktheStreets]

That's a great tip!

[@94503poizon]

Que giro! I loved that one. LOL - I already used that one 3 times in the last hour. Seriously, you always provide wonderful commentary and practical application on how to use phrases.

[@TalktheStreets]

Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it!

[@rachitjames5100]

yes

[@dahianaotano1496]

Olá boa noite eu estou morando em Portugal e já tenho um ano aqui, mais preciso muito mais vocabulário para poder falar melhor, o que acontece comigo é que sinto-me um pouco com vergonha para falar. Já também posso ler livros 📚 eu já lei abitos atómicos em português e vou comprar mais livros. Estou aqui a aprender consigo 😅 muito obrigada por seu trabalho. Beijinhos

[@TalktheStreets]

You can do it!

[@qamaruddin9352]

[@TalktheStreets]

That's awesome!

[@sunniesesay2271]

Yes it is true

[@metaswo4795]

Lovely lesson.

[@TalktheStreets]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@robbarker6881]

Yes, yes, yes,

[@CeliaCohen-t7t]

Yes

[@bri_____1970]

Thanks for the video. I question the approach of memorising phrases though. Not sure how they help when you can't keep the conversation going. You get this a lot with tourists, they open the conversation, sounding super proficient in Portuguese but when you reply to them, all you see in a blank look on their faces.

[@TalktheStreets]

Of course! This is just to get people started and should be used as a complement to a comprehensive program. :)

[@muiliechan2233]

Quero aprender..

[@AnnaAdventuring]

Brilliant! I’m aiming to complete the challenge 😊

[@TalktheStreets]

You got this! 😊

[@AnnaAdventuring]

@@TalktheStreets❤

[@RickLasota]

Once I figure out how to down load the "Challenge", I'll do it. I'm aged challenged. oh, I think I just figured it out. Thank you.

[@tommelling8177]

Brilliant yet again!

Obrigada!

Thanks this was helpful,but I can’t find the download checklist

[@TalktheStreets]

I'm so glad! It's in the video description :)

[@kirstystewart2570]

These are fab, I have learned most here but some of my pronunciation has been off! Ugh…..I know now!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Obrigada!

[@TalktheStreets]

Thank you!

[@juliotilman5503]

Yes❤

[@mdbahermerchantuddin6881]

Very muito apender

[@JacyOnTheFly]

I’m thinking about taking the challenge! But how do I say, “I’m just browsing” when I’m in a shop? Thanks for all of these lessons! Looking forward to my first visit to Portugal!

[@TalktheStreets]

You've got this! You can say "Estou só a ver, obrigada!"

[@zakkassem9760]

cheers liz

[@jackcarew1992]

This is such a great video! Which excuse me is better for getting a waiters attention? Or is there a better phrase for this? Obrigado!

[@TalktheStreets]

Muito obrigada! For a waiter's attention you can simply say "Desculpe" or even "Por favor". "Com licença" is not used in this context. :)

[@louiselamoureux8688]

yesthx

[@ann61610]

Mam i really like the way you teaching its just awesome god bless you 😊

[@TalktheStreets]

It's my pleasure!

[@niloofarbavarsad1490]

you are rock as always....!

[@TalktheStreets]

thank you so much!

[@afrocyberdelia]

Unlike French and Spanish, often perceived as deeply rooted in their lands of origin, Portuguese, especially in its Brazilian variant, shines far beyond its borders. Brazil, with its rich history of cultural blending and vibrant dynamism, offers a more open and inclusive vision of the language. The influence of its Afro-descendant population has deeply enriched this culture, giving it a unique identity. Lusophone Africans find a powerful resonance in this Brazilian Portuguese, which mirrors a shared multicultural experience. Portuguese has thus transcended its European roots, becoming the quintessential language of the Global South, standing apart from other European languages still tethered to their metropolises. Brazil, by integrating diverse heritages (African, Indigenous, European, Japanese), has transformed Portuguese into a living symbol of diversity. Today, Portuguese has become the most spoken language in the Southern Hemisphere, and the third most spoken European language in the world, positioning Brazil as the vibrant heart of a thriving lusophone world.
