OUR ONLINE PORTUGUESE COURSES ARE PERFECT FOR:
10 REASONS TO LEARN BRAZILIAN PORTUGUESE:
Portuguese is One of the Most Spoken Languages in the World
Portuguese is the sixth most spoken language globally, with over 265 million speakers. The majority around 215 million people live in Brazil, making it the dominant Portuguese-speaking country.
Brazil’s Economic Importance
As the largest economy in Latin America and an emerging global power, Brazil plays a major role in trade, agriculture, energy, and technology. Portuguese fluency opens doors to business and professional opportunities in a growing market.
Brazil is The Only Portuguese-Speaking Country in South America
Unlike its Spanish-speaking neighbors, Brazil is the only country in South America where Portuguese is the official language. If you plan to travel, work, or do business in Brazil, speaking Portuguese is essential.
Spoken Beyond Brazil
While Brazilian Portuguese is distinct, learning it allows you to communicate with people in other Portuguese-speaking countries, such as Portugal, Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde, and Guinea-Bissau.
Travel with Confidence
Brazil is home to incredible destinations, from the Amazon Rainforest and Pantanal wetlands to Rio de Janeiro’s famous beaches and the Iguazu Falls. Speaking Portuguese makes traveling easier and more immersive, as many Brazilians do not speak English fluently.
Experience Brazilian Culture More Deeply
Brazil has a rich cultural heritage, samba, bossa nova, forró, and MPB are just a few of its musical styles. Carnival, Capoeira, and Brazilian cinema also offer unique experiences that are best appreciated when you understand the language.
A Gateway to Other Languages
If you plan to explore Latin America, knowing Portuguese makes learning Spanish easier, as the two languages share many similarities. This can give you a competitive edge in both travel and business.
Connect with Brazilians on a Personal Level
Brazilians are known for their warm and welcoming nature. Speaking Portuguese allows you to make deeper connections, whether in a samba club, a local market, or through friendships and business relationships.
It’s Simply a Beautiful Language
One of the best reasons to learn Brazilian Portuguese? It’s a beautiful language! From romantic song lyrics to expressive storytelling, Portuguese has a melodic and rhythmic quality that makes it a pleasure to speak, listen to, and sing along with Brazilian music.
