. It was
firstly conceived as an appendix to another ebook: ‘My
Journey on Language Learning’.
B-U-T...
The number of visitors at
www.learn-portuguese-now.com
showed me that the Portuguese Phrases page was the 2
nd
one most visited on the whole Web site!
So, why not going straight to the point and provide these visitors with exactly what they
are looking for?

Here they are, in 5 main categories. Have fun!

100 Portuguese Flash Cards: The Memory Back Up
On the first unit you will learn how to book a room, get a taxi, order a meal – and make
yourself understood in 15 other occasions.
On the next, there are 20 classes of
Cognates
– English and Portuguese words that
have the same origin or that are related and similar in some way. There are about 1600
of them within both languages, and you will be able to recognize them in a wink of an
eye!
The third unit brings The 100 Most Common Portuguese Verbs into the scene, with one
example for each case.
Following, the 100 Most Common Portuguese Words – a short sample of the ebook ‘365
Common Portuguese Words’. Grab your free copy at

Finally, 100 Portuguese Flash Cards will help you contextualize the verbs from Unit 3.
Each verb comes with two related words for its quick use, as well as a number from 1 to
100.
Print them out, cut them and keep them always at hand. (The bathroom is my favorite
classroom! J) You will realize that learning Portuguese is
not
rocket science!
These can make it easier and faster for you to learn the Portuguese language. They
represent more than 50% of the vocabulary used in every-day speech. I sincerely hope
your ‘language journey’ may be much easier than mine was.
Now it’s your turn:
Grab your favorite beverage and a highlighter (if you’ve already printed your copy!J),
throw yourself on the sofa... and join me in this learning adventure!
Unless your house gets on fire or the landlord requests it back, read this Ebook in full.
Later, choose any unit you want, take a deep breath and dive in.
As you know, every meaningful thing in life has a price – and its own value. When I
started studying English, I faced several challenges (except a fire or an impatient
landlord!) However, true friends enabled me to push forward with my studying plans.
That’s why I must care about your progress. Someone has done it for me first.
Let me emphasize that I am not the author of the words, sentences or techniques here
presented. I am just a daily user. So, if anyone blames me that I’ve used other peoples’
ideas, never mind...
...I surely did.
