(Free) Brazilian Portuguese Beginner Resource Masterlist
I've seen a lot of posts for European Portuguese, but none for Brazilian, so here we are! All resources are available for free (or at least have free trials.)
The items highlighted in yellow are what I, personally, use and recommend.
The items with asterisks are closer to intermediate level.
I will continue to update with new resources as I discover them. If you have any suggestions, comment or reblog!

the feminine urge to learn a new language every week

salut, salut~! i’m back, and today I thought I’d share with you my usual study routine when it comes to french! before we begin though, please remember that everyone is different and what works for me might not be the best for you <3 ok, c’est parti!!
no. 1 - reading! (10-15 min)
i usually start my study with some reading to get my head into the gear of another language. i’ll pick an article or page from a book that i’m interested in and read it through, seeing how much i can understand and summarising it as best i can once i’m done. then i’ll reread it, and highlight the words i don’t know or can’t remember. i’ll look up the meanings, and these go in my set of flashcards on zorbi. from there, i like to translate about 5-10 sentences or so, thinking carefully about how my word choice can best convey the meaning.
no. 2 - flashcards! (5 min)
now that i’ve done some reading, i’ll review my flashcards. these i’ve compiled over a little while, picking out words i don’t know yet or frequently forget and studying them to make sure i can recall them confidently. i don’t spend too long on this, and rather do short sessions often because i find it helps me remember them better.
no. 3 - writing! (10-15 min)
next up, writing! most of the time i’ll either go with a diary entry about my day, a bit about the topic i just read up on or anything generally interesting that i’ve encountered in the last few days. because the things i write about are so relevant to my life, i find it has helped me to be able to comfortably express myself quicker than other methods i’ve tried. i’ll write without looking at any grammar notes or vocab, just remembering everything i can off the top of my head and correct after i’m done. sometimes i don’t have any mistakes, but more often than not i’ll have made a few small errors such as ‘un’ instead of ‘une’ or a misspelled adjective.
here i have a 5 minute break :D
no. 4 - grammar! (10-15 min)
grammar is something i struggle with in french, so as much as i hate it, i have to include it in my usual routine to get it to stick. i’ll either practice bits of grammar i made mistakes on during my writing, or look for something new to learn on YouTube and make notes. most of the time this is the slowest part of my session - since i like to write quite fast and freely, i often forget simple things when it comes to grammar, so here i have to really slow down and take my time.
no. 5 - speaking! (10-15 min)
to finish up, i’ll practice speaking. i do this in a number of ways - sometimes i’ll chat with a study buddy on zoom, call up a few of my friends who are native speakers or record myself speaking on my phone and go back and review my pronunciation. i like to work on making my words clear and precise, and try to talk about things out of my comfort zone. because i’m not based in france or another french speaking country, i don’t get much chance to speak, so i usually have a lot to say here!!
well, there you go! this is what a typical study session looks like for me. obviously there is always variation where i’ll try different techniques, switch up the order/types of stuff i do or work for a shorter or longer period depending on my energy levels, but this is more or less it! thanks for reading, et je t’aime! <3

so I was watching a TED-Ed vid that said that multilingualism might improve executive functioning skills, esp if the second language is acquired later in life
As someone who struggles w executive dysfunction bc of my adhd, I find this quite fascinating. I know 3 languages proficiently atm bc I was raised in a desi household - but I learned all of them during my childhood
I've always wanted to learn Spanish so I'll do that on Duolingo. This is gonna be the first of my 4 activities. Imma try this for 30 days and see if it makes a difference
if Duolingo the owl doesnt kill me I'll come back to report my progress

Bilingual people, how do you it!!!
How do you sustain a full conversation in English….
Growing up in a bilingual (English/Spanish) city with bilingual friends really messed me up for interacting with people outside my city.
I have recently made monolingual English speaking friends and I CAN’T DO IT MAN!
Fuck, staying home for college+COVID really did make me reliant on Spanish/Spanglish
I can text/write in English with no problems… but SPEAK… over for me! I didn’t even speak this much Spanglish growing up!!! I’m sure I did speak more than I realized, but fuck, having casual conversations fully in English is rough. I totally have the vocab(honestly my English is better than Spanish), it’s just, I slip into assuming people know Spanish when they don’t. And then my brain’s already in Spanglish mode, which is hard to turn off. I’ve started responding to my teachers in Spanish when asking questions or answering small things, WHICH I CERTAINLY DIDN’T DO BEFORE. So uh yah… speaking hard, props to all my multilingual folks out there.

Rhymes not working in other languages is truly a tragedy
But at the same time, it means new rhyming possibilities when I'm speaking another language
So mixed feelings
Also is this just a me thing or are signs that are really similar the equivalent of rhyming in sign language? Just the same vibes to me
