Portuguese - Continental

Squall Leonhart

Hi,

I am interested in learning Portuguese, as spoken in Portugal, not Brazil - I have been led to believe that the differences aren't negligible.

If anyone knows of the best method of going about this, I'm all ears! (I know that immersion is the best way, but I'm not in a position to move to Portugal just yet!)

Thanks

Hi,

I was trying to see if I could find a link for an Institute that does a good course every year or so, but I couldn't.:(

There are some interesting links here:
http://www.learningportuguese.co.uk/home-page/free-online-portuguese-courses.html

And Instituto Camões have a handy tool for conversational Portuguese:
http://cvc.instituto-camoes.pt/aprender-portugues/a-falar/guia-de-conversacao.html
(just click on the "say in Portuguese" box)

I hope it helps...

This is the link that I mentioned earlier:

It's a pity the course has just started...
