Pronunciation

In this phrasebook, the Portuguese has been written in a system of imitated pronunciation so that it can be read as though it were English, bearing in mind the notes on pronunciation given here:

a
as in hat
ay
as in may
eh
as in get
g
as in goat
i
as in it
as in might
J
as in the s sound in pleasure
o
as in not
oh
as in slow
oo
as in boot
ow
as in now

In words such as no nowng and bem bayng , the final g in the pronunciation signifies a nasal sound and should barely be sounded. Letters given in bold type indicate the part of the word to be stressed.

Notes

There are two verbs that translate to be ser and estar depending on whether the verb is describing a permanent or temporary state. For example, sou ingls I am English ; estou cansado I am tired .

Where two words are given as a translation, as in our nosso/nossa , the first is used with masculine nouns, the second with feminine nouns.

The word the before a masculine noun is o ; before a feminine noun it is a . In the case of plurals it is os and as respectively. For example, o livro the book ; os livros the books ; a garrafa the bottle ; as garrafas the bottles .
