This Week’s Portuguese Challenge: Colors! 🎨 Great job to everyone who completed last week’s challenge! 👏 This week, we’re building on what you already learned. Remember: - Eu gosto de… = I like… - Eu não gosto de… = I don’t like… Now, use those same sentence starters with colors! For example: - Eu gosto de azul. (I like blue.) - Eu não gosto de marrom. (I don’t like brown.) I’ve added an English-friendly pronunciation under each color to help you read the words more confidently. It’s not perfect Portuguese pronunciation, but it’s close enough to make speaking much easier when you’re just getting started. I’m also sending you an audio recording so you can hear how each color is pronounced. 🎤 Your challenge: 1. Repeat all of the colors out loud. 2. Record yourself saying: - Eu gosto de… + one color. - Eu não gosto de… + a different color. I’d absolutely love to hear your recordings! Don’t worry about being perfect; just focus on practicing. Every time you say the words out loud, you’re getting closer to speaking Portuguese naturally. 🇧🇷❤️

My theory when teaching Portuguese is simple: If you can create one sentence, you can create ten. If you can create ten, you can create twenty. Today, let’s learn one of the easiest and most useful sentence structures in Portuguese: Eu gosto de… = I like… Eu não gosto de… = I don’t like… For example: ➡️ Eu gosto de futebol. (eh-OO GOHS-too jee foo-chee-BAWL) = I like soccer. ➡️ Eu não gosto de futebol. (eh-OO now GOHS-too jee foo-chee-BAWL) = I don’t like soccer. Now think of other Portuguese words you already know! I’m leaving you a list of common verbs and nouns to help you. Try creating at least two sentences using this structure, then post them in the comments. Want extra practice? Record yourself saying your sentences and send me an audio! I’ll personally review it and give you feedback. 🇺🇸🇧🇷
