Learning a language can be a bit annoying at times. Imagine just hearing a word in a language that is completely foreign to you and saying, “Wow! I know the meaning of that word.” Then you decide to use it in a sentence after a while and in doing so you get raised eyebrows and pursed lips. Perhaps the word just used was a false cognate.

This is a continuation of the lesson on false friends. In this lesson, the false friends in Portuguese and English will be considered. When languages share a complex history, look out for false friends.

==Actually, atualmente==
In English actually means ‘in the real sense of it’ or ‘really’. Actually resembles the Portuguese word ‘atualmente’ is be translated as ‘currently’.

==Advert, advertir==
Advert is the English word meaning ‘a notice or advertisement’. The Spanish cognate for advert is advertir. Advertir is translated as ‘to advise’.

==Agenda, agenda==
These false cognates look frightfully similar and can be very misleading. Thankfully language learners do not encounter words like these often. In English, agenda means ‘a particular plan’. In Portuguese, agenda translates to ‘a diary’.

==Alias, aliás==
The English ‘alias’ means ‘a codename or nickname’ while the Portuguese ‘aliás’ is translated to mean ‘by the way, besides’.

==Alumni, aluno==
Actually the meanings of these cognates are as close as they get. While alumni means ‘graduated student of’, aluno means ‘a student or a pupil’.

==Attend, atende==
Attend means ‘to be present’ and atende it's the act of "atender" which means ‘to pick up’. In order to say attend in Portuguese, use the verb ‘comparecer’.

==Collar, colar==
Collar in English means ‘an item worn around the neck of dogs’. In Portuguese colar means ‘a necklace for humans’. Okay that was a bit similar.

==Costume, costume==
These very similar words have very different meanings. The English ‘costume’ means ‘an outfit worn mostly for acting’, while the Portuguese ‘costume’ refers to ‘habits’.

==Data, data==
Yet another very similar pair. Data in English means ‘unprocessed information’. The word ‘data’ in Portuguese means ‘a date on the calendar’.

==Deception, decepcão==
To say deception in Portuguese the words ‘fraude’ or ‘enganar’ should be used. And not the word decepcão which means ‘disappointment’.

==Diversion, diversão==
Diversão does not mean diversion nor is it related to it. Diversão means ‘fun’. Diversion on the other hand can be translated to ‘desvio’ in Portuguese.

This list will be continued in subsequent lessons.

2020-02-14T19:19:52Z

Willcstr:

Hello everyone, my name is henry and I am a brazilian who'd llike to dhare with you some informal ways to say good bye over here in Brazil.

==Tchau tchau==

If you are learning portuguese, even if you're in the basics, you probably already knows that "tchau" means goodbye or simply bye. But to sound more like a native you'd like to know that saying only "tchau" may sound like a cold bye, so here are two tips: 1 try prolonging the "a" in a growing way something kinda "tchaAu" and then a smile :) 2nd tip: say "tchau" twice, here in Brazil this is common as much as sand in the desert, and of course don't forget to smile (we are a very afectionated people).

==Valeu!==

This literally means that something had a value, so it means thanks and also a bye. It's common to use that after being helped.

==Falou / Falous==

this is a nice one. the translation is "spoke" but guess what? it means bye as well. It's common using this after a "valeu". PS: you can try putting a S at the end so you can sound even more like a native.

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

In portuguese we say "Te vejo logo" or "Até mais" when you will see someone again in the future.

==Typical breakfast in Portugal ==

The breakfast in Portuguese is called "o pequeno almoço".

The Portuguese take their breakfast quite late (around 9.30 or 10am).
It consists of bread, toasted or not. Most often, it is country bread, spread with jam or jelly of quince, cherries or tomatoes. It is accompanied by a bowl of milk or coffee.

Enjoy your meal!

==Typical breakfast in Brazil ==

In Brazil, each region has its typical breakfast. However, breakfast will be a sweet mix of sweet and savory everywhere.

On the table will be placed fresh tropical fruits such as mango, watermelon, papaya, watermelon or salad ..., jam or honey or cakes with banana, carrot or chocolate. Tapioca and very European foods such as salted butter (always), bread, melted cheese, scrambled eggs, sweet or fruit yoghurt (never nature) and ham are also very popular in the morning. The preferred cereals will be granola.

The Brazilian breakfast specialty is Pão de queijo, a roll made with mandioca flour and cheese.

Drink level, from the classic: coffee, coffee with milk ... the difference here is that the grains come mainly from the country. The consumption of tea is quite low. The fruit juices are exotic: orange, of course, pineapple or caju, depending on the region.

For a quick breakfast, Brazilians will prefer a coffee and pão na chapa, buttered toast or a grilled sandwich with ham and cheese.

Enjoy!
