Thanks so much for your clear and sooo useful videos. I have watched some of them, those for the beginners and I'm going to stick to your channel, having fallen in love with Portugal and its nice inhabitants. Trying to settle there soon, so definitely motivated by European Portuguese. Take care of you, and keep on, you're a great teacher❤

Cannot agree more with number 10. Apps did not help me to learn Portuguese. Thanks for the video. ❤ Living in Portugal now, I've learnt a lot in 2 months.

It surprises me that in Portugal they avoid the word "você" and just use the verb. In Brazil is the opposite, as you say we use " você" in any context, but not pronouncing você sounds weird, it seems something is missing in the phrase.

It looks like to me that many 'abstract' nouns are feminine nouns, such as luz, mente. :)

You are a good teacher but go slowly. Sometimes, it is hard to grasp it. I will be in lisbon on 15 July and want to touch with you. Can I call you. I may be moving there after retirement next year. I watch your videos which are quite a helpful.

4:40 mas Duolingo me ensina _"A minha camisa e _*_muito_*_ bonita"_ ... E minha namorada carioca concorda com Duolingo!!

It's twisted things like *_that_* that makes Portuguese incomprehensible for a gringo like me 😭

Nem todas as palavras portuguesas em ção são femininas: Exemplo: cação, coração

[ciprianoneves]

Usually, em Portugues O e masculino e A e feminino.

Yes there are variations.
