🌍

Kultureller Hintergrund

In Brazil, 'café da manhã' is the word for breakfast. It literally means 'coffee of the morning'. Even if you eat a full meal, it's still called 'café'. In Portugal, breakfast is 'pequeno-almoço'. Using 'café da manhã' will mark you as a Brazilian Portuguese speaker, though you will be understood. In Angola, like in Portugal, 'matabicho' is a common informal term for breakfast, used 'de manhã'. The greeting 'Bom dia' is strictly for the morning. As soon as lunch is finished (even if it's 12:30 PM), people switch to 'Boa tarde'.

💡

The 'De' Rule

Always use 'de' for parts of the day (de manhã, de tarde, de noite) when speaking generally about habits.

⚠️

Avoid 'In'

Never say 'em manhã'. It's the most common mistake for English and Spanish speakers.
