Portuguese from Brazil and Portuguese from Portugal. Are they that different?
Hi everybody. Someone got me an Assimil Portuguese (from Portugal) and I've been doing the Pimsleur brazilian Portuguese. The thing is I'm interested in the culture of both countries and I would like to be able to comunicate in any of these countries. My question is, if I learn Portuguese from Portugal, will I be able to comunicate in Brazil also? Are they too different? Will I be able to read things from both countries? What do you recomend? Thank you guys

Hey Nicolas, you are an Argentine and my understanding of the Portuguese is that the accents are different as they are in different Spanish speaking countries. The differences are more pronounced between the Brazilians and the Portuguese though.

Realmente são muito parecidos, mas há palavras que têm significados diferentes. Deve-se ter cuidado!

O que tem mais diferença é o sotaque e as expressões idiomáticas, mas falando português, você consegue se comunicar com pessoas dos dois países

Quanto a gramática, são similares. A grande diferença está no sotaque , palavras palavras homônimas e cultura. Eles (Portugueses), falam muito rápido em relação ao modo de falar dos brasileiros. Você terá que aprender os dois idiomas. Português de Portugal e o Português Brasileiro.
