    First notebook entry: Introducing myself

    Hi, I'm Alex, 42 and single. I would like to improve my English skills; mainly in listening and of course improving vocabulary. 
    I have some problems with prepositions. 
    My mother language is Brazilian Portuguese. I grew up in Brazil but I have already lived in Germany for four years. I use to travel a lot around Europe; mainly Austria, Switzerland, Italy and Germany. 
    My hobbies are reading (I'm reading the 5th book of 'Game of the Thrones - A Dance with Dragons'. It is quite hard to read it in English!), playing games on computer, jogging and of course doing nothing at the beach. :) 
    Feel free to ask any questions if you want something else. 
    Greetings from Brazil. 
    Alex

    Primeira Aula

    Eu gostei da primeira aula de Português.

    I practiced several phrases, such as:
    Prazer em conhecê-la.
    Qual é seu nome?
    Falo algumas palavras de Português.

    I learned a long list of palavras:
    cachorro = dog
    acento til = ~ (a palavra acento escreve-se com apenas um c)
    acento circunflexo = ^
    acento agudo = ´
    estado = state
    cidade = city
    país = country (not to be confused with pais = parents)
    irmã = sister
    irmão = brother
    mãe = mother
    pai = father
    ...
    Too many to list! Eu vou escrever no meu bloco de notas.

    O nome da minha universidade é DePauw. O nome da minha gata é Kiko. Eu moro com minha gata Kiko em meu apartamento. Eu tenho 27 (vinte e sete) anos. Eu moro na cidade de Indianapolis em da Indiana nos Estados Unidos.

    Eu tenho uma irmã e um irmão. O nome da minha irmã é Alexis. O nome do meu irmão é Derek. O nome da minha mãe é Sheila. O nome do meu pai é Jim.

    Agora no Brasil é verão e está muito calor. Agora no Estados Unidos é inverno e está muito frio.

     

    As preposições em Português podem ser combinadas com artigos:

    eu moro na (em+a) cidade de Indianápolis

    eu sou de Indianápolis

     

    eu moro em Indiana

    eu sou de Indiana

     

    eu moro nos (em+os) Estados Unidos

    eu sou dos (de+os) Estados Unidos
