Lesson 4 – Portuguese With Carla Podcast
The 4th lesson in our free Portuguese audio course is here. We continue following our imaginary friends on their Portuguese holiday. This week they venture into a hotel. What common Portuguese expressions will they hear and use? I also introduce you to cardinal numbers.
Also in this lesson: Research shows that humans store vocabulary in the brain more in the form of a complex web of interdependencies than in the commonly accepted “storage box” fashion.
Enjoy

Hi there,
these are design for complete beginners. Later podcasts are perhaps a better fit for you.
Best Regards

Thank you so much. I’m really glad to start my Portuguese journey with you Carla
Thanks very much for these podcasts, they are really helpful for hearing and learning the rhythm and pronunciation of Portuguese.
Hi Carla and Marlon, could I ask you to write the numbers into your pod casts please, with numbers in brackets perhaps. I’m really enjoying your podcasts, thank you.
Hi Briege, sorry for the really late reply. We’ve been crazy busy building our new online program. Anyway…
Glad you’re enjoying them 🙂
I see what you mean. Sure, that makes sense. I’ll add that to my to do list. I can’t promise when it will be done, but… it will.
Thanks
Hope that helps
