Do you speak English?	Fala Inglês?	Fahla Ingle[a]ysh? – Although the ‘ê’ sometimes sounds more open (‘ay’), the circumflex still denotes that it should be a close pronunciation. Listen carefully to a native speaker – the sound is like a cross between the ‘ea’ of ‘ear’ and the ‘ai’ of ‘air’. The same is true of the words ‘Inglesa’; ‘Português’; and ‘Portuguesa’.

I am learning to speak Portuguese	Eu aprendo a falar Português	Ayoo aprendu a falar Portooge[a]ysh

I am English	Sou Inglês	Soh Ingle[a]ysh – only said by males
I am English	Sou Inglesa	Soh Ingle[a]yza – only said by females

I am Portuguese	Sou Português	Soh Portooge[a]ysh – only said by males
I am Portuguese	Sou Portuguesa	Soh Portooge[a]yza – only said by females

I am from England	Sou da Inglaterra	Soh da Inglaterrrra – lit. “I am from the England”

I am from Portugal	Sou de Portugal	Soh de Portugal – they don’t say ‘from the Portugal’ (like they do with England), just ‘from Portugal’ (like we do). Most other countries of the world require ‘from the’ (‘do’ or ‘da’ depending on the gender of the country – see section on nouns below)

Where are you from?	De onde é?	Di-yondi-yeh?

in England	na Inglaterra	na Inglaterrrra – lit. “in the England”

in Portugal	em Portugal	aym[ng] Portugal

I am from London	Sou de Londres	Soh de Londresh

Sorry!	Desculpe!	Deshculpe!

I am sorry	Lamento	Lamentu – lit. “I lament”.
I am sorry	Peço desculpas	Pessu Deshculpash – lit. “I ask for excuses”.

Excuse me	Com licença	Com[ng] lissensa – lit. “with permission”.

I don’t understand	não entendo	now[ng] entendu – lit. “not I understand”.

so then	então	entow[ng] – lit. “then”, but used frequently in places where English would say ’so’, or ’right then’.

you (singlular)	você	vosseh – A formal way of addressing someone (in Brazil they use você informally as well).
	o senhor	oo senyor – lit. “the gentleman”
	a senhora	a senyora – lit. “the lady” Note, the Portuguese generally speak more formally than the English, so although referring to someone as ’the lady’ or ’the gentleman’ would sound rather pompous to us, it is quite common in Portuguese. Senhor/Senhora can also mean sir/madam, Mr/Mrs (‘Miss’ would be ‘a menina’, or ‘Senhorita’), or Lord/Lady.

I	eu	ayu

he	ele	ele - the first ’e’ is very close, almost like an English ’i’, whereas the second ’e’ is barely audible (so it sounds almost like you are saying ’ill’).

she	ela	ela

’Com licença’ is often said as a parting formality – for example, as a polite way to end a telephone conversation. The word ’então’ is a very useful word for linking to a new subject without appearing too abrupt.
