This episode is a phone call that I made to Rio de Janeiro to talk to a person born and bred in this beautiful city, which mesmerizes foreign tourists. My purpose is not only to ask her to speak about the Carioca food, slang, places to visit, Carnaval time... but also to give you the opportunity of listening to her accent, which is considered by all of us Brazilians the most pleasant accent found in Brazil. It is also interesting to listen to it, attentively, to enable you to know when you are talking or overhearing a Carioca speaking to somebody. I hope you enjoy it and let me know on my Instagram if you have had the chance of visiting Rio de Janeiro. If you haven`t, I strongly recommend visiting it.   Visit my facebook channel Aprendendo português com os Nativos.

This podcast is about the different personalities of different people. In Portuguese, as well as in English, we have several ways to describe somebody`s personality.  Firstly, I will explain in English the adjectives that describe personalities. Once you know what I am speaking about, you`ll be able to understand the examples in a context, ( if you are an intermediate language learner) easier than if the adjectives were loose, and not in sentences. In order to improve your listening, and vocabulary, listen to it twice and repeat it out loud for yourself. Record your voice, to compare it with my pronunciation.

Diagraphs are a combination of 2 letters with only one sound, it can be at the beginning, middle, or end of words. 1- words written with LH, -  toalha, orelha, mulher, olho, milho, bilhete, telha. Try using the word Lea(name of woman), it sounds the same. 2-words with CH - chave, cheiro, chinelo, mochila, cachorro, chuva, sanduíche. To be able to pronounce them say sheeee. Now try each of them. 3-words with NH - cunhada, aranha, sonho, dinheiro, caminho, banho, banheiro. try saying "in a". Now apply this sound to be able to pronounce them.
