[edit] Portuguese

Just put a watch on my user page and talk page. I hope I am helping more than hurting Wikipedia.

I was confused when you said about differential accents. What did you mean? learnportuguese 21:20, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
This was amazingly helpful. One other confusing concept for me about the Portuguese language is that some words can mean the same thing but have two spellings: for example, internacional/internacionais, atual/atuais, and a lot of other like these. They are patterns, but this concept still confuses me. Of course I'm still a beginner; I've got a long way to go before I consider myself intermediate, and an even longer way to go before I consider myself fluent. The one thing holding me back from progressing is my perfectionist attitude about my pronunciation. I figure since I want to be a radio journalist, I should speak as clearly as possible. I also want to be well understood by the native Portuguese speakers across the Portuguese-speaking world. learnportuguese 10:27, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Well then, if I get this write, obrigada para seu ajuda. :-) That's interesting that to say thank you in Portuguese, you are saying that you are obliged to that person. I think it's a really friendly way to say it. learnportuguese 10:10, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] dropping a line to you

Olá. I was just dropping a message because I haven't see any posts from you on my talk page for awhile. Be assured that my talk page is a friendly and dynamic environment with discussion on many aspects of the beautiful and fascinating Portuguese language. Just scroll to any section or the end of anyone's comments and type away. :-) learnportuguese (talk) 21:19, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] college

Olá. College term starts January 10 and so I won't be on Wikipedia nearly as much. I thought I'd let you know. Just put my pages on your watchlist and you can start new discussions if you want. I think it's excellent what you have contributed so far! :-) User:Learnportuguese 04:54, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] special Portuguese characters

Bom dia Cotoco. Como está? Well, your discussion of the special Portuguese characters (under the section in my talk page titled special characters in Portuguese) was very helpful. I know you're very good at English, mas se precisa ajuda estarei ao seu dispor. :-) learnportuguese (talk) 13:06, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
