best way to learn Brazilian Portuguese! I have tried to find a good way to learn
Portuguese and this site really won. No other site is so many-sided with all the
grammar, songs etc. Feels I can not get enough of learning! The skills I learn
from this site will definitely help me on my holiday in Cumbuco, Brazil! Merja __________________________________________________ Message sent by Attila (Budapest, Hungary) on Aug 4, 2008 I

Your website is a wonderful support for me to learn Portuguese. The well
organized material and nicely chosen examples along with English translations at
the right places and the examples of common problems remind me of the excellent
grammar book that I used to read when I was studying English. The internet links
to the songs and the lyrics on the website are very useful also. Thank you for
your generosity of offering your website to the World for free. Kind regards,
Attila __________________________________________________ Message sent on Jul 31, 2008 Parabens. Eu sou da Argentina e por trabalho preciso falar em português.

you so much for your awesome website! I'm American, but my boyfriend is
Brazilian. He moved here when he was young, but this summer he's going home to

I'm so excited and I can't wait to see Brazil in all its beauty! __________________________________________________ Message sent by Patricia on May 28, 2008 Parabéns,

try out the recipes and also try to relearn the language. Thanks for the
beautiful website. __________________________________________________ Message received on May 9, 2008 I am Ukrainian but currently I live in Sao Paulo.

Andei navegando pelo seu site, nao so achei facil como
interessante, principalmente a forma como vc ensina o portugues com a traducao
paralela ao ingles. Em todo o meu tempo que aprendi lingua, pensar na traducao
era pecado mortal. Achava um absurdo, me sentia um verdadeiro papagaio,
repetindo sem ter nocao do que estava falando. Mas era assim que tinha de ser, e
eu era obrigada a seguir. Mas hoje a historia mudou. Agora estou do outro lado e me recuso a ensinar os meus
alunos a repetir como papagaios sem entender o que estao dizendo. Um abraco, _________________________________________________

I was searching for Ivete Sangalo's 'Quando a Chuva Passar' lyrics. I got directed by the yahoo search engine to your website.

Nevertheless... your website is what people would need to learn everything about Brazil. I wish U good luck. __________________________________________________

I googled 'free software for learning Portuguese' and your website popped up in the list. I am so pleased that I found it. The audio is friendly and clear. The phrases are very useful for what I am learning in my Portuguese class (Level I). I did not get far in looking through the site before I felt the need to stop and let you know how much I appreciate it. I'm sure it will prove useful in my journey of learning Brazilian Portuguese. I will definitely share it with some of my classmates. Thank You! Sincerely, Kris __________________________________________________

I hope this web page will give me some insight into the language until I am able to start formal lessons. I will visit the page from time to time to hopefully get a head start on learning the language. I also want to visit Portugal one day... Eugene __________________________________________________
