51 Portuguese Idioms - Speak Like a Brazilian - Book 1

51 Portuguese Idioms presents 51 Brazilian Portuguese Street Smart words & expressions in the context of 102 everyday situations.

* Follow seven Brazilian characters as they go about their daily lives

* Learn colloquial expressions in the context of real-life situations

* Get to know more about Brazil through our Cultural Notes

* Improve your grammar with pointers to our blog posts and video lessons

* Build current vocabulary for personal and professional relationships

Each word and expression is presented in two different situations that mirror daily interactions in modern day Brazil.

The 102 situations are presented in English, so you can focus your attention completely on the Street Smart vocabulary that you are learning. The sentences that contain the 51 colloquial words and expressions are presented in Portuguese followed by their English translation. Through these Portuguese/English examples you will build vocabulary beyond the colloquial expressions that are the primary goal of this book.

Through our more than ten years of teaching Portuguese as a foreign language, we have taught students from all walks of life, different cultural backgrounds, and varying previous experience with the language. One thing seemed to unite all the students: The challenge to bridge the gap between the Portuguese they learned in textbooks and the Portuguese that they were exposed to in real-life interactions with Brazilians.

Our aim is to help you cross that bridge and speak like a Brazilian: 51 Portuguese Idioms brings you the Portuguese that you won't learn in traditional books or classes. With this book you will learn idiomatic expressions, modern day slang, and popular sayings that are pervasive in everyday real-life communication.

â€œWhile editing 51 Portuguese Idioms, I came across roughly 15 phrases that I hadn't seen before. It's not as if I just started learning Portuguese last year or anything, because in reality, I've been doing it for close to a decade. The fact that 51 Portuguese Idioms goes beyond all that I have seen and heard while dealing with aspects of Brazilian culture and the Portuguese language on a daily basis is no small feat.â€ (Adam Lee, Editor of Eyes on Brazil)
