I had not read the comments, or description and was therefore not aware that most of the video is just about a dozen irregular verbs. Please kill me now. That being said, having all this information in one clear package is very useful. Thanks!

This is sooo amazing plus you also gave us a PDF file🌟 thank you so much🎊 muito obrigado!!!

❤ 7/3 edit: 5th time watching. Took notes on flashcards. Narrowed down to just 8 tenses, focused on EU present tense AR verb falar. THIS is really happening...IF YOU are reading this, hungry to travel to fluency...This video is your ticket to success...im actually understanding now (6 months of exposure time with dubbed movies as well)! I cant speak yet, jaja. Good luck, and really really study, okay? ❤❤❤

Thank you for this!!! Great job!!

Phantastic... ótimo... what a great techer you are, Andrew querido. Parabens pra vc 😊

Kudos to you sir for find real-life clips from different media!

Great course, presently anchored in Salvador, learning Portugues, supplementing school with your course. Thanks!

Thanks Mr. Andrew, you really assisted me in building a solid foundation understanding the variations between tenses, which in my opinion serve as backbone not only to learn portuguese, but other languages too. Hearted thanks.

One of the best language explantions I've seen I'm on my 5th language!

I love your teaching

Such a Great Video Thank you

Awesome job. liked and subbed

Parabéns! I'm jumping back in after a few years and I needed a quick refresher on *everything* without a lot of fluff. This was perfect. Gostei dos pedaçinhos de prática espalhados pelo vídeo. Valeu!

THANK YOU FOR THESE VIDEOS

God bless you thank you so much for your incredible classes

Ensino inglês a vida toda, mas nunca tive coragem de ensinar português, porque acho a gramática muito difícil. Mas você ensina com uma maestria incrível! Seu vídeo é muito organizado. Quanto tempo você viveu no Brasil? Onde? Pela sua pronúncia do "ti..." acho que foi no sudeste. Estou realmente impressionado!

Obrigado, tus videos son muy serviciales!!!

Por que que eu comi tanto - without context was way toooo funny omg thank you so much for this video

Perfect timing amigo

Left off @ 1:05:04 "Poder" . Great video btw. Very helpful and organized. ✨ Obrigada

Thank you 🙏🏼

incrivel video, obrigado!

thank you for doing gods work

Obrigado pelo lição 🙂

I struggle so much with subjunctive, like it doesn't want to enter my brain. I need to watch that section about 60 times I guess.

Obrigado!

Wow. You've covered the most important aspects in just one video! Thanks, this goes directly to my learning playlist. Do you also teach online? I am in the process of understanding verbs better, memorising is hard!! And without a partner to speak to, it's challenging. If someone is interested in starting a Brazilian Portuguese learning community, please reply!

Hey man thanks for the video,. I really enjoy your learning "Portuguese with ..." videos and I was wondering maybe if you could do more of them, like Alex Pereira. Also Neymar has some videos where he played among us with his friends and I like them a lot because he uses a lot of slang in them. However the audio quality is a bit tough and makes things harder to understand.

Thanks!

excellent.

Muito obg

Eu gosto de ur videos

Thank you one more time Andrew for your time and commitment to helping us with Portuguese. I have a question regarding past tense of a regular verbs regarding "We" . For example with the verb Ter in the past tense regarding the We form can I say Gente tives. My question is really if I can use Gente for the we form for ter or other irregular verbs in the past tense Thank you

As a native Spanish speaker I find the verb conjugation very similar to Spanish, which makes it very easy to understand and learn.

Wow, thank you so much for this video. This must have taken you forever. I’m sure everyone who sees this is grateful for your work. One question I had was about hypothetical sentences in the past. For example, how would you say in Portuguese, ‘If I had known, I would have bought the house.’ I’m particularly interested in how you would translate ‘If I had known’. Theoretically speaking, I would say ‘Se eu tivesse sabido, eu teria comprado a casa.’ That said, my understanding is that ‘tivesse sabido’ sounds super weird and unnatural to a native speaker. I also understand that with other verbs, it is okay to use the ‘se tivesse + past participle’ formulation. Do you know why it is different for saber? Thank you in advance.

Grazie Mille, molto utile mermão

very cool

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: Learning verb conjugations in Portuguese, especially for everyday conversations, can be simplified by focusing on spoken language context. Verbs in Portuguese often end in AR, ER, or IR, and their conjugations vary based on the subject pronouns. In the present tense, AR verbs like "falar" (to speak) are conjugated as "eu falo" (I speak), "ele/ela fala" (he/she speaks), and "você fala" (you speak). The colloquial form "a gente" is often used for "we" instead of "nós", and its conjugations follow the same pattern as "ele/ela" and "você". ER and IR verbs also have specific conjugation patterns in the present tense, with variations in endings like "eu vivo" (I live), "ele vive" (he lives), "eu decido" (I decide), and "eles decidem" (they decide). Some verbs have pronunciation changes in the present tense, indicated by open or closed vowel sounds, affecting words like "comer" (to eat) and "correr" (to run). Verbs in Portuguese have two main past tenses: preterite (preterit) for completed actions and imperfect for ongoing or repeated past actions. The preterite tense is used for actions with a clear endpoint, while the imperfect tense expresses continuous or habitual actions in the past. The preterite tense can also be used to express English present perfect tense, often with the use of "já" (already) or "ainda" (yet). Future Tense in Portuguese: - In conversational Portuguese, the true future tense isn't commonly used. - Instead, the future can be expressed using the simple present tense when implied by context or by combining the present tense of the verb "IR" (to go) with the infinitive form of the main verb. - Examples include "eu vou falar" (I'm going to speak) and "você vai amar" (you're going to love). Conditional Tense in Portuguese: - Formed by adding "ia" or "iam" to the end of a verb to express hypothetical actions. - Examples include "Eu falaria" (I would speak) and "decidiria" (would decide). Subjunctive Mood in Portuguese: - Used to express uncertain or hypothetical situations. - Present subjunctive formed by changing AR verbs to "E" or "E-M" and ER/IR verbs to "A" or "A-M". - Examples include "Eu espero que ele fale inglês" (I hope he speaks English) and "Eu queria que você falasse com ele" (I wanted you to speak with him). Special Verb "ter" (to have) and Its Conjugations: - "ter" is used as an auxiliary verb in compound tenses. - Its conjugations include "tenho" (I have), "tinha" (I had), "teria" (I would have), etc. - Examples include "Eu tenho falado" (I have been speaking) and "Se eles tivessem mais tempo" (If they had more time). The past subjunctive is used for general hypothetical or contrary-to-fact statements. When referring to a specific action that could have happened but didn't, use "tivɛsse" with the past participle, as in "Se você *tivɛsse* falado inglês" (If you had spoken English). In spoken language, verbs like "estar" are often shortened, for example, "Eu tô" instead of "Eu estou" (I'm). To form the gerund in Portuguese, replace the final "r" with "n-d-o". For instance, "falar" becomes "falando" (speaking). Verb "IR" (to go) in Portuguese has present tense forms like "vou" (I go) and past forms like "fui" (I went). Verb "ser" (to be) describes more permanent states or longer-lasting characteristics, while "estar" describes temporary states. Verbs like "dar" (to give) and "vir" (to come) have various forms in different tenses and moods, such as present, past, future, conditional, and subjunctive. The video provides conjugation examples for Portuguese verbs, focusing on present, past, future, and conditional tenses. It covers irregular verbs, such as "poder" (to be able to), "querer" (to want), "saber" (to know), and "ver" (to see), among others. Different tenses and moods are explained, including present subjunctive, past subjunctive, future subjunctive, and conditional. The imperative form, used for commands, is discussed, both in standard Portuguese and in everyday spoken language. The concept of personal infinitive is introduced, showing how a verb can have its own subject. The concept of the personal infinitive in Portuguese is explained, where the infinitive is conjugated to agree with the subject. In the personal infinitive, verbs maintain simplicity except in the 3rd person plural, where "E-M" is added to the end of the verb. Examples are provided, showing how verbs like "falar" (to speak), "comer" (to eat), and "decidir" (to decide) are conjugated in the personal infinitive. No irregular forms exist for the personal infinitive, and it applies to all verbs in Portuguese. Examples illustrate how the personal infinitive is used in sentences to convey specific actions related to the subject. Made with HARPA AI

Holy shit I love the video examples 😂

Great video!!. Is the “nos” version of “we” conjugated verbs pronounced open or closed?

The “dirty dozen” is cracking me up 😂

Hello and thank you very much for your videos. I am working very hard to get through this video to prepare myself for live classes with Brazilian Portuguese teacher. I'm not sure and I could be wrong but II notice when you are describing present tense verbs I hear you describe the last letter is n but it appears as m. I think you want us to see the last letter as m and not an n. In one example we use ashar for they as asham but I thought I heard you say the last letter was n. Just curious about what your thoughts are Thank you

I have been slowly working through this video for a month or so and finally have an understanding of everything leading up to the 'dirty dozen'... I have a question... with Ter in the past preterite why is the sentence "Eu vou ter 'que' estudar mais" instead of "Eu vou ter estudar mais"? How do I know if I need to add the que in a sentence? Does it work like a "to" or is it something completely different?

Hello. I'm confused between vinha and viria well actually I'm not that confused I kind of know the difference but I want you to explain if they're both used for "Would" thank you

It’s the first time that I discover that Arabic too has a personal infinitive.

Olá Andrew Eu assisto os seus vídeos. And I always wonder, What is your background, and did you grow up with parents that spoke Portuguese and it’s basically a Native language to you just like English? Or did you learn by Visiting or living in Brazil and Intense studying? I think you know what I’m trying to say, Just pretty curious

One question for estar do you drop the "es" for every conjugation when speaking or just the ones you mentioned it for?

I am appalachian, so I pronounce the open and closed e the same way. Easy habit to break.

Do you know of any books 📚 that have this these rules listed?

What’s the difference in meaning between these two verbs? andar and Caminhar

When do you use pensar vs achar?

Hey Andrew, how do I access the pdf of this lesson? Obrigada❤
