Portuguese irregular verbs in the present: faço, posso, digo, tragoUse the most common irregular verbs in the present tense (ser, estar, ter, ir, fazer, poder, querer, dizer, trazer, ver, vir, dar, sair) with eu, você, a gente, nós and eles, and learn the special eu forms: eu faço, eu posso, eu digo, eu trago, eu vejo
  2. Ser vs estar in Portuguese: traits, feelings, time and where things areChoose ser for traits, origin, jobs, relationships, materials, the time and where events take place, and estar for feelings, conditions and where people and things are now; contrast está cansado with é cansativo, and use ficar for buildings and cities: O museu fica no centro

Gostar de in Portuguese: how to say what you like, love, prefer and what hurtsSay what you like with gostar de plus a noun or an infinitive and the contractions do, da, dos, das; use adorar, preferir, odiar, interessar-se por and gostaria de; and say what hurts with doer and estar com dor: minha cabeça dói, estou com dor de cabeça
  4. Portuguese reflexive verbs and daily routine: eu me levanto, eu tomo banhoDescribe a daily routine with acordar, levantar-se, tomar banho, escovar os dentes, vestir-se and deitar-se; place me, se and nos before the verb the Brazilian way (eu me levanto, eu não me deito tarde, vou me deitar), and notice that Brazilians often drop the pronoun in speech: eu levanto às sete
  5. Portuguese past tense: regular and irregular preterite (fui, fiz, tive)Tell finished past events with the pretérito perfeito in every person: regular -ar, -er and -ir verbs (falei, comi, abri), the irregular fui, fiz, tive, estive, pude, disse, trouxe, vi, vim and dei, and time words like anteontem and no ano passado
  6. Portuguese imperfect tense: quando eu era criança (imperfeito vs perfeito)Describe how things used to be and what was happening with the pretérito imperfeito (falava, comia, era, tinha, ia), and choose between imperfeito and perfeito: Eu estava lendo quando o telefone tocou
  7. Portuguese future tense: vou viajar and falarei (ir + infinitive)Talk about plans with the everyday Brazilian future, ir + infinitive (vou viajar, vamos estudar), recognize and write the simple future for formal texts (falarei, farei, direi, trarei), and use time words like amanhã, semana que vem and um dia
  8. Portuguese commands: the Brazilian imperative for directions and recipesGive and understand commands with você the Brazilian way: the spoken form (fala, vem, faz) and the written form (fale, venha, faça), negative commands (não fala, não fale), street directions (vira à direita, segue reto) and recipe steps (mistura, coloca, espera), with kitchen and street safety lines
  9. Portuguese object pronouns: Eu o vi or Eu vi ele?Replace a noun with an object pronoun in Brazilian Portuguese: o, a, os, as in writing (Eu o vi), ele, ela, eles, elas in everyday speech (Eu vi ele), plus me, te, nos and the formal lhe
