The course begins with the essentials, introducing you to basic words and common expressions that serve as the building blocks of your newfound language skills. Through engaging lessons, you'll master the pronunciation of consonants and vowels, helping you sound more like a native speaker and less like a tourist. Special focus is given to tricky sounds like 'ão' and 'G,' making sure you get these correctly from the get-go.
You'll then delve into the fascinating world of articles, nasal sounds, and the gendered nature of nouns, crucial for forming accurate sentences. Understanding how to use personal pronouns will further aid in constructing sentences, while lessons on forming negative sentences and the present tense of the versatile verb 'to be' lay the groundwork for effective communication.
As you progress, the course guides you through regular verbs in the present tense, time-related vocabularies like numbers, days, months, years, and seasons, and how to ask and tell time accurately. Forming plurals, using adjectives, and managing irregular verbs in the present tense are also thoroughly covered.
Moving beyond the basics, you'll explore how to ask questions, discuss possessive forms, and comprehend common irregular verbs in the past tense. The course includes a simple story, delivering a contextual understanding of complex grammar points such as the imperfect tense and personal pronouns. Special attention is given to the often frustrating, yet essential verb 'haver.'
Lessons on the future tense, demonstrative pronouns, and continuous actions prepare you for discussing upcoming events and ongoing activities in Portuguese. The more advanced sections tackle the perfect continuous verbs and the conditional mood, enabling you to express hypothetical and future scenarios fluently. You'll also learn about positional words, the passive voice, and the nuanced conjuntivo mood.
Your vocabulary will expand significantly as the course includes dedicated sessions on 100 common nouns, 45 sentence connectors, 30 supermarket words, 20 beach-related terms, and the 50 most used words for beginners. Additionally, familiarizing yourself with the entire Portuguese alphabet is made simple and fun.
With insights into the culture, like the quirks and dislikes of Portuguese people, this course provides a holistic view of the language and the people who speak it. By the end, you'll not only communicate more effectively but also gain a deeper appreciation of European Portuguese as a living, breathing language.
