The Portuguese language, known as "Língua Portuguesa," is a beautiful and melodic Romance language. Originating in Portugal, it has spread to various countries, including Brazil, Mozambique, Angola, and Cape Verde, among others. We'll start with the basics: everyday phrases, simple conversations, and essential vocabulary. Then, we'll move onto more complex grammatical structures. By the end of the course, you'll be using past tense and ready to have real conversations in Portuguese (with some help).
