ما ستتعلمه
Hey smart learner! Ready to take a huge step in your Portuguese journey? This chapter is like a magic key that opens the door to the real world of Portuguese speakers. Imagine wanting to ask what time it is, say how old you are, or even find out the price of a delicious coffee – all these are tied to numbers and time.
In this chapter, you'll learn how to count from zero to infinity (well, at least up to 100!) without getting confused. You'll discover that numbers like 1, 2, and even the hundreds have genders, just like people, and need to agree with the nouns they follow! Don't worry, we'll learn how to correctly use e (and) between numbers so everything sounds smooth and natural.
Next, we'll dive into the days of the week. Do you know why Monday is she and Saturday is he? This is another interesting secret that will be revealed here! Months are always masculine and always accompanied by a small o (the), like a good friend who never leaves your side. Finally, you'll learn how to ask and tell the time like a true Portuguese speaker – this way, you'll never miss an appointment or know exactly when your favorite show starts.
With this chapter, you're no longer just a beginner; you'll be able to make plans, shop, and participate in daily conversations with much more confidence. So let's go, lots of new things are waiting for you!

um livro(one book) but
uma caneta(one pen).
dois carros(two cars) but
duas casas(two houses). This is a key aspect of Portuguese Numbers: Counting and Agreement (1-100+). For compound numbers, remember to use
e(and) between tens and units:
vinte e cinco(twenty-five), or hundreds and tens:
cento e um(one hundred and one).

segunda-feira(Monday),
terça-feira(Tuesday),
quarta-feira(Wednesday),
quinta-feira(Thursday),
sexta-feira(Friday). However, Saturday (sábado) and Sunday (domingo) are masculine.
-feira dropped in casual speech for the weekdays.o(the masculine
the), even when just stating the month.o janeiro(January),
o março(March),
o dezembro(December). You'll use this when talking about events happening in specific months.
Que horas são?(What time is it?). To answer, you use
É uma hora(It's one o'clock) for one o'clock, and
São duas horas(It's two o'clock) for all other hours.
São três e quinze(It's three fifteen). For half past, you can say
e meia(and a half), like
São sete e meia(It's seven thirty). This comprehensive approach to A1 Portuguese will have you navigating daily conversations with ease.
