By: Jill Norman, Antonio de Figueiredo, Natália Pinazza | Series: The Penguin Phrasebook Library
A stylish, pocket-size phrasebook perfect for business travelers, backpackers, sightseers, and anyone who wants to keep their Portuguese close at hand
Penguin’s Portuguese phrasebook includes a wealth of useful words and expressions essential to travelers of all kinds, spelled out phonetically and arranged in sections to help you deal with specific situations and needs as they arise. After a primer on basic grammar and a quick pronunciation guide, you’ll find statements and questions like:
• Does the hotel have wi-fi? O hotel tem wi-fi? (oo o-tew ten wi-fi)
• My luggage has not arrived. Minhas bagagens não chegaram. (mee-nyas ba-ga-zhayn nown she-ga-ran)

• May I see the menu, please? Posso ver o cardápio, por favor? (pos-soo ver oh kar-dah- pyo, poor fa-vor)
• Does anyone here speak English? Há aqui alguém que fale inglês? (ah a-kee al-gen ke fa-le een-glayss)
Some of the Portuguese phrases are marked with an asterisk, giving an indication of the kind of reply you might get to your questions, and of questions you may be asked in turn. The main focus of the book is Portuguese as spoken in Brazil; many people in Portugal are familiar with Brazilian Portuguese, so if you are visiting Portugal you will be able to speak and be understood.
With an elegant cover and easy-to-read design that are the hallmarks of Penguin Books, this essential reference will have you feeling at home no matter where your travels take you.
