Master winter vocabulary the right way

  • Weather you'll actually talk about. Learn the difference between "está a chover" and "está de chuva," the formal and informal ways Portuguese people describe rain, plus fog, snow, hail, and wind.

  • Winter clothing that keeps you warm. Know your "casaco de lã" from your "quispo" and your "gabardine," and pick up "gorro," "luvas," and "cachecol" for the cold.

  • Storms the way locals describe them. Talk about thunder ("trovões"), lightning ("relâmpagos" and "raios"), hail ("granizo"), and a storm rolling in ("vem aí uma tempestade").

  • Spaced repetition that works. A built-in trainer brings each of the 23 phrases back at exactly the right moment until it's locked into long-term memory.

TESTIMONIALS

From people who tried other things first.

  • I knew my self-taught Brazilian Portuguese might not be so well understood for my trip to the Azores. I wanted the real language of European Portuguese, not just that of limited Brazilian CD courses. It's like Carla and Marlon are in the room with you. There's no pressure, or fear of getting things wrong, just gentle encouragement.
  • I'm the type who gets bored and loses focus very quickly. I moved to Portugal recently and have been really struggling getting my head around the language. I finally came across Portuguese With Carla and decided to give it a try. In just two weeks I'm starting to understand when I hear others speak Portuguese.
