# Portuguese phrasebook

    This article is about Portuguese as spoken in Europe, Africa, and Asia. For Portuguese as spoken in Brazil, see Brazilian Portuguese phrasebook
Portuguese (português) is a Romance language. It is spoken as the official language of Portugal and Brazil, with some differences in pronunciation, spelling, vocabulary, and use of pronouns. It is also the official language of Angola, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique, and São Tomé and Príncipe. It is co-official in East Timor, Equatorial Guinea, and Macau. It is spoken in the Indian state of Goa and the union territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu, mainly by the elderly. Portuguese-based creoles are still spoken in various former Portuguese colonies in Africa and Asia. There are around 250 million Portuguese native speakers, the vast majority in Brazil, and 24 million second-language speakers.
If you know a Romance language, it will be easier for you to learn Portuguese. It is closely related to Spanish, and even more closely related to Galician, which descends from the common ancestor tongue of Galician-Portuguese (also known as Old Portuguese, Medieval Galician, or galego-português). However, people who know a little Spanish may hastily conclude that Portuguese is close enough that it need not be studied separately. While they may be able to figure out the meaning of some signage, items on a menu, etc., understanding of verbal communication will be very low to nothing. Words such as "gente" (people) are pronounced so differently in either variant of Portuguese, that you would hardly recognise them. Also, some personal names such as "Jorge Ramos," for example, will be pronounced quite differently as well. If you speak Spanish fluently, invest a few hours getting used to the sound differences and some common words—after that you'll be able to make rapid progress understanding what people are saying to you. If you know Spanish, watch for a lot of new vowels, a large number of contractions (comparable to del and al) and irregular plurals. Some pronunciation differences can be easily missed, such as año (year) becoming ano. If you speak good French, you may find Portuguese pronunciation to be fairly easy, though much of the vocabulary will have changed substantially.

## Pronunciation guide

The pronunciation in Portugal differs significantly from that in Brazil. The difference is basically in pronunciation and a few vocabulary differences, which make it tricky even for Brazilians to understand the European Portuguese accent. Speech rhythm differs between the countries. European Portuguese is what linguists call "stress-timed", which is the same speech rhythm used by English speakers. This leads to unstressed vowels being reduced or omitted altogether by speakers in Portugal. Depending on circumstances, Brazilian Portuguese varies between stress-timed and "syllable-timed", the more "musical" speech rhythm found in languages such as French, Italian, and Spanish.

Words that are stressed on syllables not according to these rules will have a written accent on the accented syllable.

### Pseudo-phoneticization

Wikivoyage provides pronunciation help in certain contexts such as phrasebooks and destination names. Wikivoyage's pronunciation help mainly uses pseudo-phoneticization, for which readers can find a simplified pronunciation guide.
Beyond this preferred standard, you may also find:
* IPA, the International Phonetic Alphabet
* recorded sound files
This section serves as a bridge between Wikivoyage's pseudo-phoneticization, IPA symbols, and the sounds specific to the Portuguese language as spoken in Portugal. This article should not be used for Brazilian Portuguese, but it will provide some guidance for other Portuguese-speaking countries.

#### Vowel sounds

## Grammar
### Gender

Portuguese nouns, pronouns, adjectives, and articles have a grammatical gender–either masculine or feminine. Humans and animals use the gender that matches their real-world gender. Inanimate objects and concepts require memorization. Generally, the endings on these classes of words will reflect the gender. Nouns ending in -o (singular) or -os (plural) are masculine, while those ending in -a or -as are feminine. However, words ending in -ção or ções are usually feminine with some exceptions. Nouns ending in -r, -e, or -u vary.
The most important gender difference that travellers need to know is "thank you". Men say obrigado, and women say obrigada. (Obrigado/a is an adjective which literally means "obliged".) Learning other adjective differences can also come in handy. "I am tired" is estou cansado for men and estou cansada for women. Most adjectives follow this pattern.

### Articles

Portuguese has definite and indefinite articles, with different forms according to the gender and number of the noun to which they refer:
Articles in Portuguese :
| | singular | singular | plural | plural | meaning |
| | masculine | feminine | masculine | feminine | meaning |
| definite article | o | a | os | as | "the" |
| indefinite article | um | uma | uns | umas | "a"/"an"; "some" (in the plural) |

### Plurals

Plurals are formed by adding an "s". In most cases, it's just added at the end of the word with no further fuss. "The house" is a casa, and "the houses" is as casas. "The car" is o carro, and "the cars" is os carros. Note that "s" is added to both the article and the noun.
In some cases, the root word changes slightly. "The television" is a televisão and "the televisions" is as televisões, with "ão" changing to "õe" before adding the "s". "The hotel" is o hotel and "the hotels" is os hotéis, with the "l" changing to an "i" and the "e" gaining an acute accent before adding the "s". "The man" is o homem, and "the men" is os homens, with the "m" changing to "n" before adding the "s".

### Pronouns

The personal pronouns of Portuguese have three basic forms: subject, object (object of a verb), and prepositional (object of a preposition).
Portuguese pronouns :
| number | person | subject | object of verb | object of preposition |
| singular | 1st | eu | me | mim |
| singular | 2nd | tu | te | ti |
| singular | 3rd | ele, ela | o, a; lhe; se | ele, ela; si |
| plural | 1st | nós | nos | nós |
| plural | 2nd | vós | vos | vós |
| plural | 3rd | eles, elas | os, as; lhes; se | eles, elas; si |
Note that for third person pronouns, the object of verbs use <o, a> for direct objects (masculine and feminine), <lhe> for indirect object, and <se> for reflexive or reciprocal, direct or indirect object. <Si> is used as an object of preposition for reflexive or reciprocal, direct or indirect object.

### The pronoun "you"

In Portuguese, there are different words for the second-person singular pronoun "you", depending on level of formality and politeness. It basically boils down to how well you know the person you're addressing. Travellers can get by using você with the third-person singular verb. "How are you?" would be Como é que você está?. However, in most contexts, including this one, the pronoun can be—and usually is—dropped, so you would say Como é que está? or simply Como está?. More formally, you can say o senhor ("sir", "the gentleman") or a senhora ("madam", "the lady"), as in Como está o senhor? and Como está a senhora?, but this would not be expected of tourists. If you get to know someone well enough to be on a first-name basis, you can use the second-person singular pronoun tu—Como é que tu estás?, or more typically Como estás?.
For the second-person plural "you", the Portuguese use vocês with the third-person plural verb. The traditional form of second-person plural "you", vós, has fallen into disuse and nowadays is found only in literature, scripture, or highly formal contexts.
The use of pronouns in Portugal is one of the major differences from Brazilian Portuguese.

### Verbs

Portuguese has a complex verb conjugation system compared to English, but it's simpler than some other languages. There are three classes of conjugation, based on the ending of the infinitive:
* First conjugation: ending in -ar
* Second conjugation: ending in -er
* Third conjugation: ending in -ir
There are also several verbs with irregular conjugation. As a traveller, having a quick overview of the present tense of each verb class and a few common irregular verbs should suffice. For the regular conjugations, remove the -ar, -er, or -ir ending from the infinitive and add the letters in bold from the tables below.
Like Spanish and Italian, but in contrast to English or French, Portuguese is a "pro-drop" language, where you can leave off the subject pronoun if it is clear from context. For example, eu canto and canto both mean "I sing"; tu comes and comes both mean "you eat".
First conjugation: cantar ("to sing") :
| English | Portuguese |
| I sing | eu canto |
| you (singular informal) sing | tu cantas |
| he/she sings | ele/ela canta |
| you (singular polite) sing | você canta |
| we sing | nós cantamos |

| you (plural) sing | vocês cantam |

| English | Portuguese |
| I eat | eu como |
| you (sing. inf.) eat | tu comes |
| he/she eats | ele/ela come |
| you (sing. pol.) eat | você come |
| we eat | nós comemos |
| they eat | eles/elas comem |

| English | Portuguese |
| I am | eu sou |
| you (sing. inf.) are | tu és |
| he/she is | ele/ela é |
| you (sing. pol.) are | você é |
| we are | nós somos |
| they are | eles/elas são |
| you (pl.) are | vocês são |

| he/she is | ele/ela está |
| you (sing. pol.) are | você está |
| we are | nós estamos |
| they are | eles/elas estão |
| you (pl.) are | vocês estão |
Irregular: ter ("to have") :
| English | Portuguese |
| I have | eu tenho |
| you (sing. inf.) have | tu tens |
| he/she has | ele/ela tem |
| you (sing. pol.) have | você tem |
| we have | nós temos |

#### Writing time and date

Portugal uses the 24-hour clock, so 8AM is written as 08:00 or 08h00, noon as 12:00 or 12h00, 8:30PM as 20:30 or 20h30, and midnight as 00:00 or 00h00 (sometimes 24:00 or 24h00). This is what you will find in timetables and business hours. In casual conversation, the Portuguese do use 12-hour time.
In Portugal, the month is written after the day, so Christmas Day, the 25th of December, is 25/12.
