Nice introduction to European Portuguese

This book is great for anyone who is traveling to Portugal. It gives a smattering of important phrases to help the traveler get around and communicate the basics.

Focussed Learning to Get You Talking

I bought 3 beginner Portuguese guides and this is my favourite by far.
It is very relaxing to listen to and the music makes it a bit addictive! . It has adequate repetition so you can get the pronunciation down - I find this lacking in most other formats. The native/non-native combo is ideal. Sentences are broken down into short phrases, so sentences you think are beyond your capability are accessible. Another important quality: the content is perfect for travellers. You use your brain space to learn the important things and, most importantly, get you talking early. I don't need to learn every adjective, noun, verb etc.at this point. Very impressed. I am tempted to try some other languages just for fun.

Great intro to Portuguese

I really enjoyed learning Portuguese this way. The voices are nice and it is really European Portuguese instead of Brazilian Portuguese which is hard to find

Ear Worms

I like the concept of this c.d. learning software a lot. I have used it and can say it definitely helps but to be sure to get the pronounciation correct it is best to have a Portuguese friend online to help verify sounds, and / or other software to listen and compare. It is a cool method to learn and I love the way it sounds music wise and rythmically. I am buying the French one for my 6 year old because she likes the Portuguese one so much and has already taken a couple years of french.
