Hi, just loved the video and recomended it to a very close person :) This is just a theory, Slytherin may also be also related to the Sefirs (population that lived in the north and center of Portugal) and beside theyr tongue sound like a "sssssss"nake they also worship Dragons and Snakes, that inspired many in Portugal until today :D Just a theory

I'm Portuguese and hearing her pronounce every single place with a Spanish accent really made me cringe. People need to understand that Portuguese and Spanish are two different languages, we might have similarities but accent is not one of them. Portuguese and Spanish don't have a good history together so please don't ever mix Spanish and Portuguese because both ethnicities won't appreciate it
@TripleP5 жыл бұрын
Hey Andréa, Firstly thank you for your message. I will take it as constructive criticism and work to improve my accent depending on what I am presenting. It is true that yes I speak Spanish and not Portuguese But at the same time I would like to point out that you did not mention anything except the language aspect. It would be nice if you could've also said something about the content, videography, effort, etc instead of only focussing on the one element you didn't appreciate. But thank you for your input and will look to improve in the future. :)

Of course when it comes to the accent, I don't blame you in particular, most people make the mistake of mixing the two languages. By the way, did you know that if you buy a book at the Livraria Lello, you get your entrance price deduced from the price of the book itself. The library used to be free but many people came and didn't buy anything so the owners are doing this to get a bit of money from the visitors that come and don't buy anything :)

Portimao, Albufeira, Pera). Very excited. Where in Portugal do you stay? And regarding the book at Livraria Lello, I did know about that, but unfortunately I didnt get as much as time as I would've wanted in the place to buy a book.

the Lello bookstore was about to close. with so many harry potter fan visitors, customers were unable to buy books. then the entrance is paid, but if you buy a book, you have a discount equal to the entrance price. so if you want to visit, buy a book and end up paying nothing. the bookstore also has other things worth seeing. as very rare books, one of the first editions of "os lusíadas" the most important portuguese book, from 1600's and the first edition of the "mensagem" another extremely famous book in portugal. in fact, when it was on display, people came from all over the country just to see it. at least that's what they told me.

@Phillipe-sb6ls3 ай бұрын
I'll give a quick rundown of what truly did inspire Rowling, even to a small degree, and what didn't. True: --The robes at universities --António Salazar (Although part the Slytherin founder's name originates here, it is, I think, a bit of a stretch to say that he was primarily based on Portugal's Salazar. It's just that the guy is now seen as a bad dude--being a fascist dictator leads to that--and that his name has an appropriately sibilant kind of sinisterness to it.) --Majestic Café (This is actually the correct syntax, though it does follow the English adjective + noun order. Also, while Rowling has mentioned writing here, the place has always been ridiculously expensive, so it's hard to believe that a humble English teacher, who would go on to live on public assistance when she returned to the UK, would have been a regular there.) Not true: --Well, obviously everything else. And that includes Livraria Lello, a place Rowling noted on Twitter that she had never visited. My source for all this: JK Rowling herself.
