Portuguese of the Week

Hey guys, here's two weeks worth of Portuguese.

Verb Conjugation

A
falar  (to speak)

eu ( I) - falo
voce ( You) - fala
nos ( We) - falamos
voces (they) - falam

e
comer ( to eat)

eu  - como
voce - come
nos - comemos
comem - comem

i
partir ( to come from)

eu - parto
voce - parte
nos - partimos
voces - partem

The key is that most verbs end with the corresponding -ar, -er, and -ir ending conjugate in the preceding ways.There are some important irregular verbs as well. Play with them, learn them, and definitely try to use them. Take the  previous verbs I gave you two weeks ago, and try to apply this to them. Try to get comfortable.

PS I'm sorry for the delay of the week, life's always gets in the way. I'll definitely double up with videos, vocab, and songs this week.

Portuguese of the Week

Comer - to eat
beber - to drink
tocar - to play ( an musical instrument)
jogar - to play
sair - to go out
saber - to know
conhecer - to know of
chamar - to call

So next week I'll start doing verb conjugating and we'll all be a little more Brazilian :-D

Portuguese of the Week

Howdy folks, this week's verb is....

estudar  - to study

For example:

Eu estudo para minha aula de portugues .

I study for my portuguese class.

That's for all you guys taking midterms this week. Good luck everybody and see you in class tomorrow. We'll do a few more verbs and then I'll show you how to conjugate them.

Howdy. I changed the title of the daily. Also, it's about 4 days late...happens. So, without further ado, the Portuguese of the week is:

começar - to start

 

Comecei a praticar capoeira nesta semana - I started to practice capoeira this week. 

I'll introduce a few more verbs, and eventually I'll add in verb conjugation. After that, MORE PORTUGUESE VOCAB! Aw man I'm excited about this news. I haven't been this excited since I learned the official date of the Capoeira Maranhao Batizado (Saturday, April 21,  2012) See y'all next week.
