Brazilian Portuguese Alphabet

Well, before I start I have two important warnings to make:

First of all, I’m from Rio de Janeiro, so I have a traditional accent here in Rio de Janeiro. Brazil is very big and we have different accents. And maybe you’ll hear a letter with a slightly different pronunciation than you might have seen in another video, ok?

Secondly, the letters “k” “w” and “y” traditionally are not part of our alphabet. They were incorporated later. And so they are used only for: proper names (Wagner), words of foreign origin (Milkshake, Show!) And units of measures (km = kilometer, Kg = kilogram, W = watt).

If possible always try to repeat the letters aloud because speaking is important when learning a new language.

So let’s go!

Improve your pronunciation

Now I’m going to speak each letter again giving examples of words that start with that letter.

Try to repeat each letter and word again, as this will help to improve your pronunciation and also expand your vocabulary.

A – abelha

B – bola

C – coração

D – doce

E – estrela

F – família

G – gato

H – hospital
