Portuguese and Spanish are so alike, however i'm learning Portuguese from English because there's lot of more material than in my first language (Spanish) isn't it ironic?
As with everything actually. Everything on the internet is more abundant in english and if that happens to not be the case sometime, someone somehow will make it in english. I'm learning French, Japanese and German through English videos & material.
@@cabal4171 They can also all be pronouced as the rolled r like in spanish in the Northeast of Brazil, the epiglottal H sound, the glottal H sound, and the "english R", so... Ye, the H are almost the same, but there's a difference
Eu Falo Portugues mas esse video está sendo muito util pra mim no Ingles pois ele contrastou bem os fonemas do portugues e do ingles. E era exatamente isso o que precisava ouvir. Por favor poste mais videos assim. É muito util pra ambos os idiomas.
Actually, in Brazilian Portuguese, the most common sound for the letter "o" at the end of words is something close to the short "u" as in "push". And the sound of the letter "r" in the beginning of a word usually makes a VOICED "h" sound (as in "aha", when you agree with sb) but, since there's a large variety of accents, it can make the fricative sounds that we find in the Spanish "j" or (in some southern accents) even the Spanish /r/.
Love your videos on pronounciation and phonetics, excellent! Be aware though that the 'R' sound (not the trilled r) is more of an uvular /R/ rather than the glottal H you have suggested. Thank you again for your brilliant channel. /P
I live near the border of Portugal, in Spain. I don't know many Spanish who speak Portuguese and those who do tell me they found it difficult. On the other hand my Portuguese friends find Spanish pretty basic. It helps that Portugal shows TV and films in their original languages whereas Spanish doesn't. That's a big drawback for Spanish people not accustomed to hearing other languages.
waiiiit you said don't worry about memorizing...(i have a horrible memory and i worry too much!!) ....if you're using a pronunciation trainer--what's that I wnat one!!! please help me how do I get that? I'm so hapoy I found this video I really need help thank you!!!
You have forgotten to mention the /χ/ sound, which is pretty common in standard pronunciation of Belo Horizonte, Rio de Janeiro, Bahia, and other places in words such as porta /'pɔχ.tɐ/ (door) and mercado /meχ.'ka.du/ (market). You didn't either mention that in those regions and others the final R in verb infinitives and some nouns is completely silent.
Are you sure the R phoneme really doesn't exist in English? The American pronunciation of the T in 'better' or 'letter' sounds exactly like the Portuguese R to my Brazilian ears.
@@vinicius7179 I think "better" and "caro" have identical flaps because of the R at the end of "better". When there's no R at the end the sound is different. Its a shorter sound: "that I", "but I" "wait a minute" etc.
The R has, in some accents, difference before a consonant and as final letter of the word. In mine(caipira), as example, we use the /ɹ/ sound in this cases, and in São Paulo city and the South of country, these cases are a /ɾ/ too.
Excellent pronunciation course. I wish I found this when I started. Total beginners: Fluent Forever and Fun with Portuguese a Udemy course. Then: Semantica Portuguese video course combine with Glossika Brazilian Portuguese.
Fun with Portuguese is no longer available on Udemy. Do you by chance know of an alternative? I have lifetime Semantica membership so I have that covered and I'm here. I was thinking of getting the mimic method but it's very expensive and I don't know if the guy actually honors the 60 day satisfaction guaranteed refund policy. Found this video series since I'm not willing to spend $200 US on the chance that Mimic method is actually that good, or if not I could get a refund.
This is a very helpful material for foreign students to study and learn Portuguese. Excellent! However, I would like to share some features of the Brazilian Portuguese language since I'm a native speaker. The affricate sounds, phonetically represented by 't' [tʃ] and 'd' [ʤ] before [e] or [i] are phonetic models for a "standard" Brazilian Portuguese which is used to study the language, but in several other regions 't' and 'd' are, respectively, [t] voiceless alveolar plosive and [d] voiced alveolar plosive in any case. For example, 'tomate' [tomatʃi] and 'bonde' [bonʤi, they sound [tomati] and [bondi]]. Other interesting feature is that 'nh' and 'lh' don't sound, respectively, exactly as [ɲ] and [ʎ] in Brazilian Portuguese, but as [n̠ʲ] and [l̠ʲ] The sound /ɲ/ in 'conhecer' [kon̠ʲesex] sounds a little bit softer than, for example, 'año' [aɲo] (Spanish) and 'montagna' [montaɲa] (Italian). The sound [ʎ] can sometimes sound different, as in 'alho' [al̠ʲu] instead of [aʎu]. If you compare to 'família' [famil̠ʲɐ], you can see that they sound the same, but they are written differently. But, in a general way, it's a great content. I find all the videos really useful for my studies! 👏👏
hey you all viewers pay atenttion to the "h" sound. because it is not a glottal voiceless fricative like in english. I think its a epiglotal voiceless fricative. (not the same shit) they both sound alike but they are not the same. pay attention to that and comment if you find info about it. great video by the way.

Also it’s smart to learn other languages with your second language
The R sounds can differ a lot by region though
How so? I've noticed(at least I think I have) that sometimes it sounds like a mix between h and r

The tapped R is a bit like the sound of T in english in the word battery.

You can also say 'bõ.dʒ' instead of 'bõ.dʒi'. We won't even notice the difference. Some people say 'bõ.de' instead.
This is so good!!!! I hope this gets 1M views!

@llort eht deef t'noD They're definitely the same in International phonetic alphabet:
Pt - Caro /ˈka.ɾu/
AmEn- Better /ˈbɛɾɚ/
@@vinicius7179 I think "better" and "caro" have identical flaps because of the R at the end of "better". When there's no R at the end the sound is different.
Its a shorter sound: "that I", "but I" "wait a minute" etc.

What is wrong? BonDE in PT sounds like JEEp, just like he said. "Bonjee"
@@machado.r no
@@machado.r only in a few dialects, most of the world pronounces It as /bõ.di/, /bõ.dɪ/ or /bõ.de/.
@trains and trams no.
@stanley I already said NO. In the south and southeast region, it's also d.
Ugh it's Brazilian
brazilian portuguese
Probably because way more people speak Brazilian Portuguese
