I dated a Brasilian from Goiania, Goais, BRASIL. So I know some words from him.
I also have his friend to talk to who lives in PA. We talk through texting and on facebok so if I get a Rosetta Stone or a program similar to that, I can practice with Douglas. It is very exciting and I’m glad that I have a native speaker to talk with.
I already know a lot of Spanish…I can start a conversation and read articles since I’ve dated some Mexicans who couldn’t speak English.
So, I think that Portuguese will be very easy for me to learn, since I took up Spanish in a snap.
I also plan on moving to Rio or Sao Paolo someday soon, possibly after grad-school or something.
I have started listening to Portuguese artists such as:
Jorge Ben Jor
MCs HC
Gal Costa
Banda Beijo
and even though they talk so fast, I can kind of understand them since some of their words are really similar to Spanish.
