Are you planning a trip to Brazil, Portugal or another Portuguese-speaking country? Do you live next to Portuguese speakers and would like to communicate with them? Or are you simply in love with the sounds of this interesting Romance language and would like to learn the basics of it?<\/span><\/p>\n

If you’ve said yes to at least one of the questions above, it’s a good idea to learn some basic words in Portuguese, right? If you’re intimidated by the language, don’t be because you have come to the right place! In this article, I’ll go over essential words and sentences in Portuguese to get you started.<\/span><\/p>\n

Greetings and goodbyes in Portuguese<\/h2>\n

Whether you are meeting someone new or saying hi to an old friend, these are some of the first words you will definitely use when talking to a Portuguese speaker:<\/span><\/p>\n

Oi! \/ Ol\u00e1!<\/b> – <\/span>Hello!<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Bom dia<\/b> – <\/span>Good morning<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Boa tarde<\/b> – <\/span>Good afternoon<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Boa noite <\/b>– <\/span>Good evening \/ good night<\/span><\/i>
\n(That\u2019s right, Portuguese doesn\u2019t distinguish the periods of the night like English does, so just by learning Boa Noite you are ready to go!)<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Bem-vindo<\/b> – <\/span>Welcome<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

If you want to say goodbye, here are a few possible options:<\/span><\/p>\n

Tchau<\/b> – <\/span>Goodbye<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

At\u00e9 logo<\/b> – <\/span>See you soon<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

At\u00e9 amanh\u00e3<\/b> – <\/span>See you tomorrow<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Tenha um bom dia<\/b> – <\/span>Have a good day<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Cuide-se <\/b>– <\/span>Take care<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\"Learn<\/a><\/p>\n

Being polite<\/h2>\n

Being polite is a language understood all over the word, so how about learning a few words that will help you go a long way in making new friends?<\/span><\/p>\n

Obrigado(a)<\/b> – <\/span>Thank you<\/span><\/i>
\n(Unlike English, Portuguese differentiates many words by gender so it has <\/span><\/i>two different ways of saying Thank You<\/span><\/i>. It\u2019s quite simple: if you\u2019re a man, say Obrigado, but if you\u2019re a woman, say Obrigada)<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Muito obrigado(a)<\/b> – <\/span>Thank you very much<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Valeu<\/b> – <\/span>Thanks (informal)<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

De nada<\/b> – <\/span>You\u2019re welcome<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Por favor<\/b> – <\/span>Please<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Com licen\u00e7a<\/b> – <\/span>Excuse me<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Me desculpe<\/b> – <\/span>I\u2019m sorry<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Senhor \/ senhora \/ senhorita<\/b> – Sir \/ madam \/ miss<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Learn<\/a><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Introducing Yourself<\/h2>\n

Well, if the purpose here is making new Portuguese-speaker friends, let\u2019s see how we can introduce ourselves and asking other people\u2019s names.<\/span><\/p>\n

Como voc\u00ea chama? \/ Qual \u00e9 o seu nome?<\/b> – <\/span>What\u2019s your name?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Meu nome \u00e9 \u2026<\/b> – <\/span>My name is \u2026<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\u00c9 um prazer te conhecer<\/b> – <\/span>It\u2019s a pleasure to meet you<\/span><\/i>
\n(It\u2019s common for Portuguese speakers to abbreviate the sentences. In this case, you can simply say Prazer and you will be understood.)<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

O prazer \u00e9 meu <\/b>– <\/span>The pleasure is mine<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Starting a conversation<\/h2>\n

After greeting the person and introducing yourself, you\u2019re ready to start chatting! Here are some things you can say to break the ice and start a conversation:<\/span><\/p>\n

Tudo bem? \/ Como vai?<\/b> – <\/span>How are you?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Tudo bem, e voc\u00ea? <\/b>– <\/span>I\u2019m fine, and you?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Estou\u2026<\/b> – <\/span>I\u2019m\u2026<\/span><\/i>
\nmuito bem<\/b> – <\/span>very well<\/span><\/i>
\nfeliz<\/b> – <\/span>happy<\/span><\/i>
\ntriste<\/b> – <\/span>sad<\/span><\/i>
\nmais ou menos<\/b> – <\/span>so-so<\/span><\/i>
\ndoente<\/b> – <\/span>sick<\/span><\/i>
\ncansado(a)<\/b> – <\/span>tired<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

E a\u00ed?<\/b> – <\/span>What\u2019s up? (informal)<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

De onde voc\u00ea \u00e9?<\/b> – Where are you from?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Que horas s\u00e3o? <\/b>– What time is it?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Voc\u00ea fala ingl\u00eas?<\/b> – <\/span>Do you speak English?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Quantos anos voc\u00ea tem?<\/b> – <\/span>How old are you?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n
