    It's kinda funny how native speakers never pay attention to these things. As a Brazilian a never noticed that i speak like that, but it's true. The process of learning a new language is truly amazing, i remember when i used to have trouble with these little things when i was at the beginning of my journey as an english learner.

    Hi Andrew, it's really interesting how Brazilians use a lot of contractions in their spoken language, almost sounding a bit Japanese to my ears. Here are some other examples I took note of: De + aqui = daqui De + aí = daí Em + isso = nisso Você ê que sabe! ("SEKI SABE!") Espera aí que estou indo ("PERAÍ KETO indo") Você está aí? (CÊTA aí?) - Estou aqui ("TOKI")...na sua casa!" - "Cadê a minha câmera?" -"Está aqui!" ("TÁKI!") - Quando é que você vái? ("Quandé KISSE vai?") - Onde é que você mora? ("Ondé KISSE mora?) Estou com uma...(TOKUMA) - "TOKUMA...fome! Não estou (NUNTO) - "Você está bem?" -"NUNTO bem!" Estou com uma fome! (TOKUMA FOME!) Estou com uma dor.. (TOKUMA DOR..) Você está com fome? (TÁ COM FOME?) Não estou com fome (NUNTO com fome) -Você está bem? - Não estou bem (NUNTO BEM)

Muito sucesso, Deus te abençoe e eu sei que as pessoas só tem a ganhar com seu canal. Parabéns mêsmo de verdade. Não consigo diferenciar se você é brasileiro ou nativo de língua inglesa, sotaque perfeito nos dois idiomas. 🤝🤝🤝

    So much of this is like dominican spanish (which I learned to fluency, vids on my channel!). This video is very helpful. Pru+ is so similar to por/para both becoming pa' and joining the next word ie por adelante (up ahead/upfront) goes to pa'lante in real speech. Or estoy/esta/estamos going to toy/ta/tamo

    This is extremely relevant. I have heard about a lot of the standard contractions in the language, and I even knew about a few of these "person on the street" contractions (i.e., not documented in traditional language books), but it is so good to get a basic explanation like this. Sometimes native speakers simply cannot grasp just how hard it is for us learn a language. Just like most PhDs have a hard time explaining to small children the concepts they work with fluidly day-to-day. Anyway, I will probably re-listen to the many times as I claw my way to some basic fluency in São Paulo.

    Some apps to find language exchange partners (where you connect with Brazilians looking to practice their English and they help you with your Portuguese) are: HelloTalk, Tandem. HiNative is another good app to get Brazilians to answer questions you have about the language, or to give you feedback on your Portuguese. To find online tutors, there's iTalki and Preply. If you're a native English speaker looking to practice your Portuguese, it's super easy to find language exchange partners because there are way more Brazilians learning English than there are English-speakers learning Portuguese. Hope that helps!

    The “é que” literally means “is it that”….kind of like the difference between “what are you doing” and “what is it that you’re doing”. Adding the “é que” to a question is very common in the spoken language
