    Congratulations Carla! Besides being an excellent teacher you have the best standard European Portuguese pronunciation that I have heard in a long time. Your British accent is also very pleasant and clear. I vote that your way of speaking become the standard worldwide versions for Portuguese and English.
    The other day I noticed that you pronounced "frio" in a manner that I did not expect but that I had heard before. This lesson seems to support the most common alternative pronunciation. You may be correct and normally I would not have noticed it, except that nowadays I listen critically to Portuguese in an attempt to restore my former purist knowledge. Only for me. I am fine with Brazilian Portuguese and in many ways it is a more pleasant sounding version of Portuguese. I admit to being biased but no other language is as pleasant, to my ears, as standard European Portuguese when spoken by a good speaker. Keep up the good work!

    For me this is where language starts very important thank you very much Carla. Anymore on the Portuguese IPA would be greatly appreciated. After which if it's possible incorporating verb/noun phrases with these sounds to learn the sound & vocabulary. Sorry I'm needy. Then the little bits that are often used...joining words, pronoun, positioning etc to make sense of the sentence. Maybe you've already done this or maybe this is part of a paid course.. I realize your time is valuable. TY again.

      Olá Bonnie and thank you for your comment 🙂 I guess I didn’t think of it because that was not the element of the language I was trying to teach, but I agree it would help you even more. Saying that, you could create an exercise from it as it’s going to have an even greater impact on your memory if you yourself write a list of the words (nouns) mentioned here; look them up on infopedia.pt, look for “masc.” (masculine) and “fem” (feminine) and then add the correct article to each one of them 🙂

    • @portuguesewithcarla
      @portuguesewithcarla  Před 3 lety

      Co-meu has 2 syllables and because the “u” is at the end we put emphasis on the “meu” part which counts as one syllable. For instance the masculine word for “my” is “meu” and that’s a 1 syllable word (em Portuguese: palavra monossilábica) 👍🏽

      Do Portuguese speakers think of these rules when speaking or do they most often just pronounce the word the way they have heard it pronounced? The rules are useful when a person encounters a word that he or she has not seen before. It reminds me of the idiots who think children learn to read with phonics. People use phonics when they encounter a word they have not seen before, otherwise people use the "look, say" method. Thanks for the video and the rules.

      No, the Portuguese don’t think of these rules when they’re speaking, even because we learn to speak before we learn to read. However as they learn to read and, as you say, encounter words for the first time in the written form, then they may have to pause for a sec and refer back to these rules, even if they don’t actually and consciously know them, the unconscious brain should have a pretty good idea.
      As for those learning to read Portuguese as a foreign language, the tendency, and especially when seen for the first time, is to subconsciously apply the rules of their mother tongue to the reading of words in the target language. Hence the reason for this video 🙂 And thanks again for commenting 👍🏽
