🗣 *FREE Pronunciation Guide with audio (the 7 essential EP sounds)* 👉 https://www.talkthestreets.com/pronunciation-guide/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=pronunciation-guide&utm_term=20-words 🎁 *FREE Workshop: Speak Portuguese Like a Pro (for beginners)* 👉 https://www.talkthestreets.com/speak-portuguese-like-a-pro/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=webinar&utm_term=20-words The words you already use every day are the ones giving you away. They look simple written down, but each one hides a sound English speakers almost always get wrong. I test your pronunciation on 20 everyday Portuguese words, show you how we actually say them in Portugal, and give you a sentence for each one. → The hidden nasal sounds - muito, pão, também and viagem, where the M disappears and the vowel goes through your nose → The tapped R vs the strong R - why caro (expensive) and carro (car) are not the same word → The S that keeps changing - queria, português and coisas, where one word holds two different S sounds → The two-letter sounds - LH in melhor, NH in vinho, and the X in próximo that isn't "ks" → The accent that separates avô from avó - grandad wears the hat, grandma wears the hairpin Plus the stress rule that decides where every word lands, and the R-U-L-Z-I exception to it.
