About This Book

A practical language course that applies a natural, immersion-inspired method to teach Portuguese, beginning with the alphabet, accents and detailed pronunciation of vowels and consonants. It then treats morphology and syntax: articles, gender, plural formation, declensions, adjectives, numbers and a full range of pronouns, followed by vocabulary lists and simple dialogues. A second stage offers an extensive verb system with auxiliaries, regular and irregular conjugations, passive and reflexive forms, plus adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, interjections, reading lessons and common idiomatic expressions for practical use.
