Brazilian Portuguese is very different from other languages, but there are some aspects of the language that make it easier than others. There are many recommended ways to learn Brazilian Portuguese.
Tackle Portuguese grammar:
Listen to lots of Brazilian Portuguese audio:
Português do Brasil, or Brazilian Portuguese is spoken by about 200 million native speakers in Brazil. Spoken Brazilian Portuguese differs significantly from European Portuguese, but the written language, especially formal written language, is similar.
Part of what makes Brazilian Portuguese different from European Portuguese stems from the other languages it’s come into contact with and the resulting borrowed vocabulary--namely the Amerindian languages. Brazilian Portuguese has many words of Tupi-Guarani origin, African origin, and even English origin.
How to learn European Portuguese? Focus on the most important part of the language -- words. Words are the building blocks to your new language skill. With Drops, you get to spend time with what matters most.
