How to Reply in Common Situations – European Portuguese
FREE MEMRISE LESSON – https://portuguesewithcarla.com/replies
On this lesson I will teach you what expressions the Portuguese use in common situations. I will also put each one in a sentence to help further with memorisation and pronunciation.
Enjoy!

Ready to become fluent in European Portuguese?
For the last decade, we’ve been working on putting together the best possible European Portuguese course. After much research, feedback from our students, and a number of iterations, we think we’ve got it! ๐
As a base, we used scientifically proven techniques to help with master pronunciation, phrase construction, oral understanding, grammar, and all the necessary bits to get you to fluency. At the same time, having learned foreign languages ourselves, we know the process needs to be engaging, varied, and enjoyable. The whole thing is presented as an adventure. It’s a course like no other, trust us!

Legal !! Saudaรงรตes do Brasil ๐ง๐ทestou aprendendo inglรชs,muitas frases interessantes para aprender
Very helpful, thanks!
Great video! Can’t wait to use my new skills in my future holiday in Portugal! ๐
Wonderful I had been confused about when to use the feline of a word, when speaking to a woman or always because I am a woman. I thought I would post my question in The Journey forum but never got around to it.
I do have a question about the o at the end of obrigado and posso, it does not sound as of you are pronouncing the o but I donโt remember from your lesson about O sounds learning about a dropped sound. Can you tell me if this is a dialect or colloquial thing to drop the o sound at the end of some words?
Olรก ๐ Im glad this video has helped you with a question you had.
In regards to the โoโ at the end of words Itโs a very subtle and short one, but we may drop it when speaking at a normal speed and when itโs followed by a word that starts with a vowel. There are Portuguese people who always drop the end โoโ, but thatโs more of a regional thing.
This video might help you further with the pronunciation of the โoโ at the end of words: https://youtu.be/WxjDC6yt_3c
Thanks for another great video! Would you guys ever do a video on Angolan Portuguese? There’s loads of content on the differences between European and Brazilian Portuguese out there but very little on African dialects.
Working on it ๐

Muito obrigada
Wow! I really love it my skills are in level maximum ty Carla love from joudโฅ๏ธ
gosto de este episoido muito muito
muito obrigado pelo episรณdio. Podiam explicar me o melhor forma para responder neste situaรงรฃo – num corredor no supermercardo, alguem disse “Com licenรงa” para passar – como devo responder? Forรงa ou desculpe? Nรณs ingleses gostamos de pedir desculpa toda a hora ๐ Really useful having a lesson on figures of speech – these are fiendishly difficult to acquire or even come across without being taught by native speakers.
Olรก Rachel ๐ numa situaรงรฃo semelhante ร descrita no seu comentรกrio, os portugueses dirรฃo: โfaรงa favorโ (or: โfachavorโ) ou simplesmente, โdesculpeโ ๐๐ฝ
Please make a video on ”pretรฉrito perfeito simples do indicativo”(p.p.s.) and ”pretรฉrito perfeito do indicativo” with some verbs and examples
In detailed information
Thanks ๐๐
Olรก Sanjay. Did you mean to say PPS and Pretรฉrito IMPERFEITO do indicativo? If so, watch this one: https://youtu.be/vAHIEGEvaQQ
Amazing and helpful video series with Carla and Marlon. Thank you.
So glad I’ve found your channel! I find your videos very clear but also fun. Looking forward to following your Journey ๐
I learn many words thanks very much
Hey guy’s you’re awesome many thanks !! If you’re in Portugal next time come and visit our Quinta ( Quinta do Farfalho) in the North
I want to do something in return. cheers
Thank you Christophe for your kind offer โบ๏ธ
Gostei muito do seus vรญdeos! mas sรณ tenho uma pergunta: seus vรญdeos sรฃo feitos apenas para falantes de inglรชs?
Nรฃo, mas se falarem inglรชs ajuda bastante – pois explicamos muita coisa em inglรชs, jรก que รฉ uma lรญngua franca ๐๐ฝ
โ@Portuguese With Carla Obrigado por sua resposta! mas acho que provavelmente hรก mais pessoas no mundo que querem aprender portuguรชs que nรฃo sabem bem o inglรชs. Eu pessoalmente prefiro que vocรช explique tudo em portuguรชs, para que pessoas que falam outras lรญnguas nรฃo tenham que aprender inglรชs antes de aprender portuguรชs, ou passar mais tempo descobrindo o que o inglรชs significa antes de entendรช-lo em portuguรชs. Mas esta รฉ apenas minha opiniรฃo pessoal, e vocรช tem a liberdade de escolher a qual pรบblico se direcionar para seu canal. Eu sรณ queria que houvesse mais recursos de aprendizagem de portuguรชs europeu para nรฃo falantes de inglรชs, ou pelo menos, nรฃo direcionados especificamente a eles.
@Z Zero obrigada pela sua sugestรฃo ๐ no nosso website The Journey cada liรงรฃo tem uma explicaรงรฃo sรณ em portuguรชs. Talvez queira experimentar ๐๐ฝ
Fan of carla๐โฅ๏ธ
Amazing!!!Very helpful indeed. I want to learn a more formal Portuguese language, please!! Thank you so much both of you guys.
Pode ser brasileiro mas eu entendi ‘a gozar’ como um outro coisa… ๐
Sim, a palavra โgozarโ tem significados diferentes em Portugal e no Brasil. Em portuguรชs de Portugal pode significar 2 coisas diferentes. 1. To make fun of or to tease someone/ to joke
2. To enjoy (a holiday, for example)
Itโs challenging to learn a new language for the sake of โknowingโ it, but it actually takes on a level of enjoyment when you can learn a language for the sake of โunderstandingโ it. Your approach makes it easier to understand the โwhyโ behind Portuguese. Knowing + understanding is the best kind of learning for me. My wife and I love to travel internationally and are planning our first trip to Portugal in April. This should help :-). Thank you!!
Youโre very welcome ๐ค and weโre sure youโre going to have a great time in Portugal!
Great video! As somebody whose native language is Spanish I’m amazed at how similar most of these expressions are.
You are a brilliant teacher. Love your videos. Obrigada.
This one and this kind of thing will be very helpful for the “Portuguese for tourists” stage that I am at, and I hope to see more of this kind for my upcoming trip.
Thank you! Well done and very helpful.
I am following your videos .Thank you ,very helpful.โค๏ธ
Sua explicaรงรฃo รฉ absolutamente legal, รณtima, beleza, bem bacana โค
Sou Portuguรชs e apesar de nรฃo estar ร procura de vรญdeos que ensinem a minha prรณpria lรญngua materna, devo dizer que os vรญdeos deste canal sรฃo excelentes! Muitos parabรฉns pela qualidade e por explicar tรฃo bem o Portuguรชs Europeu.
If someone says forรงa, how do you know if it is being said begrudgingly or willingly? In Brazil they say claro which implies permission.
Tone of voice, facial expressions and body language play a huge part in the way we communicate with others, you just have to watch for those as well as the actual words being used ๐๐ฝ Saying that, more often than not โforรงaโ is used willingly and not begrudgingly.
Estou tรฃo feliz por ter encontrado este canal. Muito obrigada por estes vรญdeos brilhantes! ๐
Obrigada, Tomoyo ๐ค o teu portuguรชs parece-me muito bom! ๐
โ@Portuguese With Carla I have to thank you for that! ๐ค Ajudam-me muito! โบ

Let us know if you have any further questions ๐ – Carla
Hi Carla, muito obrigado for these videos, I just started learning Portuguese for my travels. Would you use adeus/tchau when leaving a shop, bar or cafe for example, or would com licenรงa be more fitting?
Olรก, AbXorb๐๐ฝ in those situations and when leaving itโs best to just say: obrigada/o, bom dia.
Of course it will depend on the time of day, but any of these will be fine – Bom dia/boa tarde/boa noite/ bom fim de semana ๐๐ฝ
@Portuguese With Carla Super, that makes sense. Thank you so much for your quick reply, and keep up the great videos! ๐
great video, thanks!
Bolas – balls – bollocks ? ๐คฃ
This is so useful for me as I move to B level Portuguese! Muito obrigada ๐
Also – Marlon’s facial expressions and acting give me life…
Iโm glad our material has been helpful to you ๐ค hope you continue to make good progress ๐๐ฝ
I know ๐ sometimes itโs hard for me to concentrate on what I have to say when Marlon is so expressive ๐
Wow, ๐
I watch this video every morning to get used with the words and pronunciation. This is baby steps but I enjoyed it so far.
Well done, Maria, for doing it regularly- thatโs key for a quick progress. Make sure to continue to have fun with learning Portuguese ๐
