Este vídeo foi muito útil! Mesmo se aprendo português faz alguns anos, este assunto sempre me dava dúvidas.

Love your videos! This is so helpful!
Question: Este é o meu cabelo. Esta é minha cabeça. Why does the first sentence use the article o and why doesn't the second sentence use the article a? Esta é a minha cabeça?

[POLSKAdoBOJU]

Muito bom... How do these work with non physical items, for example time? That day, this month, that year etc...

[thethirdenergy]

Muito bom ! Mas tenho uma pergunta sobre pronunciamento de ESTE, Esta e Isto : should we pronouce the T here? Someone told me that este and esse are pronounced in same way 🤔

[ceedeedon]

This was wonderful. I have an online class and the book hardy explains this information. I am a bit confused about when to use Deste, desse, deaquele? Neste, nesse, naqula. Aquele. Again my book just puts examples with no explanation of why I would contract these. If you could help I would be so appreciative. I’m an older student and need this to graduate and go on to grad school. 🙏

[samstagskindfebruar]
