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.
â The hidden nasal sounds - muito, pĂŁo, tambĂ©m and viagem, where the M disappears and the vowel goes through your nose
â The tapped R vs the strong R - why caro (expensive) and carro (car) are not the same word
â The S that keeps changing - queria, portuguĂȘs and coisas, where one word holds two different S sounds
â The two-letter sounds - LH in melhor, NH in vinho, and the X in prĂłximo that isn't "ks"
â The accent that separates avĂŽ from avĂł - 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.
Grab the free guide from the first link and keep it beside you while you watch. Which word catches you out? đ

Some of them mean it has to be stressed, and others mean it has to be an open vowel sound.
It's not consistent, like in Spanish!
Por eso nunca sé exactamente qué significa cada uno y cómo pronunciarlos correctamente.
It drives me mad! đ đ

Now we would only need to add the IPA transcription at the very end of each example.
