Steps

Part 1

Learn to say hello. Perhaps the best way to start learning Portuguese is with greetings. Learn them and you'll be able to say hello and goodbye to native Portuguese speakers! Below are the most common examples:

1. Learn greetings related to the time of day. As in other languages, in Portuguese you can say hello in many ways, including mentioning the time of day at which the meeting took place:

   • good morning bom dia( Boh-n dih-ah or Boh-n djih-ah in the Brazilian version) - literally translated as "good afternoon," but most often this phrase is used in the morning.
   • Good afternoon: Boa tarde ( Boh-ah tahr-jia) - used in the afternoon, before dusk.
   • Good evening / good night: Boa noite ( Boh-ah no-ee-tay) - used from dusk to dawn.

2. Learn to ask how things are going. After saying hello in Portuguese, it will not be superfluous to ask how your interlocutor is doing. The following phrases can be used for this purpose:

   • How are you?: Como está? ( Coh-moh esh-tah? or Coh-moh es-tah? in Brazilian version)
