Posts: 1You need to speak more Portuguese. Or try to draw an analogy between one or another word in Portuguese and in Spanish. So it will be easier to remember the translation in 2 languages at once. I learned French from English. Of course, I used an online translator (if you need it, here's a resource https://www.translate.com/). In it, the plus is that you can record the text with your voice and the site immediately translates, also provides the voice acting of the translation.

Posts: 2860Help with Bar Etc Conversation.
Trying to learn basic Portuguese for say a Scandallo or Fazendinha interaction. I have a few of the basics, but appreciate your learned tips in improving any of the "book learning" below and ways to say certain things not covered in my specific course needs. Here are a few that I could use help with:
Voce esta optima (is that the best way to tell a girl you like how she looks?
Voce gostaria (bebida?
You have beautiful eyes.
You have a beautiful smile.
Por favor, Eu gostaria (a rum and coke).
Cum in mouth, Beijous na boca are included in price (this is Ok to ask in a negotiation I believe?
That will probably do for now. Let me know others you think are handy besides the usual what's your name and where are you from. Really appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks!

Falar besteirinhas no ouvido.
Which is basically "talk little bullshit things in the ear" - besteira = bullshit, but here it appears to be used as little dirty things. (ouvido = (inner) ear).

Posts: 347Memrise.com has a good language course which helps pick up the basic words. I was at it for roughly a month and could find mu way around, basic greetings, negotiations and some more in Portuguese was added to my vocab.
Having a translator app is helpful too. Google translate works quite well.

Posts: 1556Nothing in return?
My aunt used to say "You come to me with empty hands" when she was talking about people who ask for favors but have nothing to offer in return. Is there a phrase or expression in Portuguese when someone asks you for a big favor but do not offer anything in return? Or they do nothing to motivate you to do a favor for them?

In Rio and São Paulo I have only heard cachoeiras. Curious what terms the locals in Foz do Iguaçu use.

Posts: 1029Translator app
Just wanted to share that I found a great translator app on iTunes which allows you to speak in your native language and have it translated into the desired language (including Brazilian Portuguese), both through audio and text. You can also change the voice to female or male depending on preference. You are able to erase your conversations with a swipe! The app is called Speak and Translate.

Great feature of this online paper is its built-in reading app (ReadSpeaker).
Select a story and click on OUVIR o TEXTO and the story will be read to you as the related text is highlighted.
You can even download the audio in. MP3 format.
Wonderful learning tool.
