You will see tons of MMA fighters on my channel. What type of Brazilian music do you like? Maybe I can incorporate some of the stuff you like in future videos.

Very good. Im brazilian and he is absolutely correct in his analysis.

dude! love these videos! its great to find content that interests me when learning Portuguese. There's many full length podcasts with fighters like Oliveira, Pereira, Teixeira on KZread but They never have Portuguese subtitles. If you could do this on your channel I think it would be awesome!

@DecodingWordswithAndrew

Жыл бұрын

Thanks man, appreciate it! If you want full length podcasts transcribed in Portuguese, I’d suggest finding someone on Fiver to do it (I’ve done it for Italian videos)….it would be pretty expensive though for a full podcast (it’s a LOT of work to do something like that). Even with the transcript, though, it would be hard to explain everything they say since fighters tend to use so much slang and non-standard speech, cultural references, as well as fight-specific terms. It’s hard enough trying to make a 5 minute video like mine 😂 my channel is really first and foremost a Portuguese learning channel, but you’ll see me using lots of figures from the MMA world as examples. More to come!

I'd argue falar is not more or less informal than dizer. Falar often implies you are talking to someone while dizer could be just talking in the sense of conveying information regardless of who the recipient is. This being said it's a very esoteric difference and they can be used interchangeably most of the time. "Falar com" vs "dizer a/para" is like "talking" vs "telling". Anyway, nice video bro!

@DecodingWordswithAndrew

Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the comment bro! Agreed, "falar" in and of itself is not more or less informal than "dizer", but in the context that Charles uses it ("falar para" in the sense of "to tell") it's definitely something you see way much more in colloquial speech. In formal, written contexts like newspaper articles you will much more likely see "dizer a" used to express "to tell"...i.e. "Familiares disseram ao jornal que...."
