    Salt, Bad Luck, and Portugal: Superstitions That Still Live On

    Book a free class 🇵🇹 ⁠⁠https://calendar.app.google/SXfwG9qHrxTE6mNv5⁠⁠ No joking! If you spill salt on the table in Portugal, you’re basically doomed. Unless, of course, you perform the little ritual that’s meant to undo the bad luck. In Portugal, nobody asks “does it work?” — they ask “are you sure you want to risk it?” In this episode, we’re sharing (completely for free) the recipe for how to be rich and have everything go your way… or at least how not to be broke while a soundtrack of constant misfortune plays in the background. No need to thank us. All our other links are here:⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/DailyPortuguese⁠

    Portugal’s Drinking Culture: Where It Comes From

    Book a free class 🇵🇹 ⁠⁠https://calendar.app.google/SXfwG9qHrxTE6mNv5⁠⁠ When doctors used to say that a glass of wine with lunch helps digestion and blood circulation, the Portuguese took it to heart. And it looks like they’ve been sticking to that advice ever since very consistently. On top of that, it seems no one send a memo to Portugal about initiatives like Dry January. In this episode, we talk about Portuguese drinking habits and where such a high level of wine consumption comes from. Of course, we couldn’t leave out a few funny stories from our own lives and we also share some observations about everyday life in Portugal.

    Yesterday, The Day Before Yesterday And The Day Before That – Pretérito Perfeito, The Portuguese Past Tense

    Book a free class 🇵🇹 ⁠⁠https://calendar.app.google/SXfwG9qHrxTE6mNv5⁠⁠ If you want to tell someone in Portuguese what you did yesterday, where you were at the weekend, what you watched or who you met, this is where the pretérito perfeito – the Portuguese simple past – comes in. In this episode, we show you how to use it in practice, when it’s useful, but also when not to use it. We’ll go through the endings, the most important irregular forms and lots of real examples. Is it the easiest tense in Portuguese? Maybe. What we do know is that most people pick it up really fast — so let’s dive in. All our other links are here:⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/DailyPortuguese⁠

    How To Learn Portuguese And Why It Has Nothing To Do With Having A Talent For Languages?

    Book a free class 🇵🇹 ⁠⁠https://calendar.app.google/SXfwG9qHrxTE6mNv5⁠⁠ I feel like we’ve heard this worn-out line a million times: “I’m not talented at languages” as the main reason why someone can’t learn a foreign language. But the truth is, you don’t need a talent for languages to speak Portuguese (or any other language). You need good habits and a smart approach. In this episode, we talk about why so many people study for years without seeing results — and what you can do to change that. Less pressure, more strategy, more real contact with the language. Small changes that, in the end, make a big difference. All our other links are here:⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/DailyPortuguese⁠

    Why We Don’t Live In Portugal?

    This is our most personal episode so far. Book a free class 🇵🇹 ⁠⁠https://calendar.app.google/SXfwG9qHrxTE6mNv5⁠⁠ We share why we don’t live in Portugal, even though we truly love that country. Because, you know – Portugal means ocean, sunshine and wine… but also bills, schools, traffic and plenty of things no one usually talks about. In this episode, we speak honestly about the pros and cons of living there, our attempts to settle into Portuguese everyday life, and why we eventually returned to Poland. If you’re thinking about moving to Portugal, this episode will show you the other side of the story – and the reasons why not only we, but also more people than you might expect, decided not to stay.
