Obrigada, Liz! :)

I've been really enjoying using drops. Thanks for all these other app tips Liz 🙏

thank you I am planning on visiting my friend in Portugal this summer 🙏🙏 ❤️

Another useful video! Thanks Liz! I really love Drops for vocab.

Vídeo excelente e muito importante! Parabéns pelo profissionalismo!

Linguno! One of the biggest difficulties I have is with conjugation and this helps me practice conjugating verbs. It’s web based but I think they plan to make it into an app in the future.

Wow this is wonderful, i had really passed Over many videos you had posted on your channel and it's was really amazing, i loved to learn more about, currently am in Angola we all the people are focused on português and no any other languages, infact I could have requested your address so that I learn more about you.thanks

Thanks

I actually really like Duolingo. Obviously it's not enough to teach you a language from scratch, but the lessons are so short and easy that there's really no excuse for not doing at least one every day. This feeling of continuing success is SO important for morale when undertaking a years-long process such as learning to speak a foreign language

Muito bom! Obrigrado!

I've been away for month and just catching up. I've been learning Portuguese since 2019 as preparation for a holiday. Yes, I started with Duolingo as there was very little around. My other half also embarked on this. I used the BBC Talk CD and books, as I used them for Spanish, French and Italian. The local college, which I attended on Saturdays, used the Bbc French as the basis of its courses. APPS, we both like using the Reverso. I use the RTP Estudo em Casa APP, in particular the one for non native speakers. I use one lesson of 30 mins everyday. 2 levels and I know it is for schoolkids. I did use the French one as well for a few weeks was considering going to France for a holiday. Better than my own UK school lessons. When my Portuguese is better may go for the History lessons. . My hubby and I have different learning styles and language experiences so we learn apart! He also uses Duolingo but hates the translations on his French! He has completed language courses at school; Latin, French and Spanish. He picks languages very easily. He likes Memrise for his Portuguese and Michel Thomas learning packages. We're planning on a move to Portugal in the future but we have caring responsibilities so even coming for intensive courses are out ftm. Online are an issue as our internet in the Highlands of Scotland is not always supportive of zoom etc. So I am battling away with Text books, CD's and downloadable audios. The Portuguese Bookshop in Cheltenham have been great and also their Bookshop in London has been visited one when visiting. I used Reverso sometimes to help me with Rubric. Also worth checking second hand bookshops, I bought some textbooks in Wigtown, BookTown of Scotland. We plan to visit Portugal for a few weeks and sign up for an intensive course 3 to 4 weeks at Coimbra, Oporto or any of a similar type. I put in about 2-3 hours per day, except on holidays when I do 1 hour.

Lyrics is my new obsession! It’s so addictive ❤❤❤

Practice Portuguese app is the best. The UX of the app itself is not the best, but the content is amazing, you get everything from grammar, vocabulary, listening, smart practice. Highly recommend.

Gosto muito de tuas flores.

In the UK there’s TEFL courses what’s the equivalent in Portugal? ou que curso posso tirar para ensinar portugues em Portugal? Obrigada

Thanks Liz! I have always given myself a hard time with Portuguese and that's quite embarrassing if you consider I am living in Lisbon for almost 7 years by now. And, actually, I got nowhere with it. I promised myself to get better with it at the beginning of 2023 and guess what − didn't work out. So, I gave the same promise for this year, stumbled "by chance?" upon your channel and I am already into it after watching some of your videos. Right now I installed the apps you recommended on my phone, did a brief check and yes, they're quite useful! This will make a change, I feel it already. Again, thanks for bringing the words to us and have a wonderful, happy, healthy and exciting new year in 2024 🙏

I often use DeepL, because I let translate longer articles in Portuguese for my German friends. Though I would be able to translate it myself, it goes a lot faster with that tool. Thank you for you video, I didn't know the other links you mentioned, I will prove them.

I use mem rise

Nice

Hello, thanks a ton for all your videos, which I truly enjoyed. Can I schedule an hour of your time (I’ll pay of course) so that I can ask you questions about relocation from France to Portugal? I have tons of them

The umlaut was used to differentiate the kee sound from the kwee sound for qui words like quiser and inqüidade. With the elimination of the umlaut, does that change the pronunciation of inquidade from “ee nee kwee dahd” to “ee nee kee dahd”? Please advise. Thanks.

Say Hi

I have and use both the Portuguese verb conjugation and deepl on my IPhone, but this year TO MY HORROR, I found they only responded in Brazilian Portuguese. Anyone experience the same? Or have a solution? I’ve tried multiple times to switch the verb conductor back to European Portuguese, even contacted the developer, who did respond, but still can’t get the European voice back☹️

0:06 Oh, trust me, I know! I'm a die-hard Memrise fan; brownie points for the European Portuguese course!

thanks for the video! just wondering if you have any websites/apps that i can watch shows in european portuguese, with both EU PT and english subtitles?

Hi Talk the Streets👍

Hi Liz , love your videos, I have taken your Free class, amazing! I was wondering about the Linguee app, for the post it notes , I couldn’t find a spot on the app for European Portuguese, am I missing something?

Have you ever considered creating a Talk The Streets app?

Reverso is impolite. I said "hello Sir, do you speak English" and it used "Voce" : )

Hi where is the link for the flashcards, cannot find in bio. Obrigada!

I moved to Portugal from the US 2 weeks ago with my husband to take care of his grandparents, I knew the move was coming so I started watching your videos and trying some apps... but do you know of any schools or classes I can take to learn more? I'm about an hour from Lisbon

Any apps that can record my pronunciation and give me comments like Elsa speak?

Hi, I love your videos but the Portuguese Verb Conjugator does not seem to have the correct pronunciation. (Ex. Listen to the conjugations for "abaixar")

How much Portuguese people and Brazilians understand each other? Is it mainly because of the pronunciation?

Where do you find Membot? Where may I download it from? I use Memrise but I can't find it in the app. (BTW, I use also the Portoguese verbs app, but I noticed that the translations in italian - as I am - too often make no sense, so I had to switch back to English...). Thanks and ... Ciao a tutti!

How noticeable is the difference between Brazilian Portuguese and European. I think I should learn European but my aunt and cousins are Brazilian. Would I still be able to communicate fairly well with them if I learnt European or is it completely different

I tried to download the flashcards but it gave me a message - this value seems to be invalid!!

Hi Liz. I've downloaded Reverso but can't find exactly where to choose European Portuguese. I've chosen Portuguese but there is no confirmation that it's European. Is it automatically European? Jackie

Duo lingo is only Brazilian Portuguese

But nothing useful as Duolingo😂😂 I have unlocked 75th Unit in Dualoingo

Are you familiar with one called Practice Portuguese ? It’s strictly for European Portuguese. If so, what do you think of it?

I have Babbel, but was told it offers only Brazilian Portuguese, not European Portuguese 😡
