“[EN] An absolutely vital podcast for anyone trying to learn Brazilian Portuguese as it's spoken in everyday life by Brazilians. Each episode consists of a monologue that the teacher reads super slowly, before then explaining the different expressions he used. At the end, he rereads the monologue at a much more natural speed, even a little fast.
What I like about this podcast is the diversity of subjects in each episode. It varies between the type of topics you would expect, like describing illnesses and getting medical help, to more niche topics like cosmetic surgeries.
I also like the diversity of the expressions he teaches. He teaches expressions from varying linguistic registers, from more formal to informal to super informal phrases and words.
The third thing I like about this podcast is the diversity of the perspectives presented in the monologues. Portuguese has grammatical gender, and i was pleased to hear that at least one of the episodes is from a woman narrator. Eli doesn't assume we are all white straight men.
Podcast essencial pra quem quer aprende português brasileiro como fala-se no dia a dia dos brasileiros. Cada episódio consiste de um monólogo que o professor conta muito devagar, antes de explicar as significações das expressões que acaba de falar. No final, ele lê o monólogo outra vez, mas desta vez numa velocidade mais rápida, mais natural. O que eu gosto nesse podcast é a diversidade dos assuntos dos episódios. Variam entre assuntos típicos como descrever as doenças e conseguir ajuda medical, até assuntos mais especializados como as cirurgias cosméticas.
Também gosto a diversidade das expressões que o professor nós apresenta. Ele ensina expressões de diferentes registros linguísticos. Tem expressões e palavras formais, ou informais, ou muito muito informais.
E a terça coisa que eu gosto no podcast de Eli, é a diversidade das perspectivas nos monólogos. O português é língua que faz distinção gramatica de gênero, então eu fiquei contente de ouvir que ao menos um dos monólogos era da perspectiva de uma mulher. O professor não presume que somos todos homens brancos heterossexuais.”Read full review »
