解説 aterragem in your Level:

At the A1 level, you are just starting to learn basic words. While 'aterragem' might seem complex, you can think of it as part of the 'travel' vocabulary. You might not use it yourself yet, but you will see it at the airport. Focus on the fact that it comes from 'terra' (land). At this level, you mostly use simple verbs like 'o avião chega' (the plane arrives). However, knowing that 'aterragem' means the plane is touching the ground helps you understand airport signs. It is a feminine word, so we say 'a aterragem'. You can practice saying 'A aterragem é agora' (The landing is now). This level is about recognition. If you hear this word on a plane, it means you are almost at your destination. It is one of the first technical words related to flying that you will encounter. Try to associate it with the image of a plane's wheels touching the ground. Even if you can't use it in a complex sentence, knowing it means 'landing' is a great start for your Portuguese journey.

aterragem 30秒で

Aterragem is the Portuguese word for 'landing', specifically for aircraft touching the ground.
It is a feminine noun (a aterragem) and changes to 'aterragens' in the plural form.
Commonly used in airports and aviation, it is the standard term in European Portuguese.
It is the opposite of 'descolagem' (takeoff) and is related to the root word 'terra'.

The Portuguese word aterragem is a feminine noun that specifically refers to the process of an aircraft returning to the ground. Derived from the root word terra (land/earth), it literally encapsulates the action of 'bringing to earth.' While English uses the word 'landing' for planes, birds, and even spacecraft, aterragem is most frequently associated with aviation in European Portuguese. Understanding this word is essential for anyone traveling to Portugal or reading news about transport and technology. It describes that critical moment when the wheels touch the tarmac, marking the end of an aerial journey. In a broader sense, it can also refer to the touchdown of a parachute or a drone. Unlike the Brazilian Portuguese preference for pouso or aterrissagem, the term aterragem is the standard, formal, and everyday choice in Lisbon, Porto, and throughout the Lusophone world outside of South America.

Aviation Context: This word is predominantly used in airports, by flight crews, and in flight tracking applications. It signifies the transition from flight to taxiing.
Grammatical Gender: As a word ending in '-agem', it is feminine: a aterragem. This is a common pattern in Portuguese for nouns derived from verbs.

A aterragem foi tão suave que os passageiros nem sentiram o toque na pista.

Beyond the physical act, aterragem carries a sense of completion and safety. When a pilot announces the start of the descent, they are preparing the passengers for the aterragem. It is a word that appears on arrival boards and in technical manuals. In figurative speech, though less common than in English, one might use it to describe a 'soft landing' in economic terms, though Portuguese usually prefers other metaphors for financial stability. When you are at an airport like Humberto Delgado in Lisbon, you will hear the staff talking about the 'pista de aterragem' (landing strip) and the scheduled time for the next arrival. It is a high-frequency word for travelers and a fundamental piece of vocabulary for reaching the A2 level of proficiency in European Portuguese.

Devido ao vento forte, o piloto teve de abortar a aterragem no último segundo.

The word also appears in scientific contexts, such as space exploration. When the European Space Agency (ESA) lands a probe on a comet or a planet, the Portuguese news will report it as an aterragem (or alunagem if it is on the moon, specifically). It is a technical term that has become part of the common lexicon due to the prevalence of air travel. In films or literature, a 'forced landing' (aterragem forçada) is a common plot device for survival stories. By mastering this word, you not only learn how to talk about planes but also internalize a key suffix pattern in the Portuguese language.

Using aterragem correctly requires pairing it with the right verbs and adjectives. Since it is a noun, it often follows verbs like fazer (to do/make), efetuar (to carry out), or realizar (to perform). For example, 'O piloto fez uma aterragem perfeita' (The pilot made a perfect landing). Because it is a feminine noun, any accompanying adjectives must agree in gender. You will often hear aterragem suave (soft landing), aterragem brusca (rough/abrupt landing), or aterragem de emergência (emergency landing). This last phrase is critical in safety contexts and is universally understood in Portuguese-speaking aviation circles.

With Prepositions: Commonly used with 'durante' (during) or 'após' (after). Example: 'Por favor, aperte o cinto durante a aterragem.'

O aeroporto foi fechado para permitir uma aterragem de emergência.

In more complex sentences, aterragem can be the subject or the object. As a subject: 'A aterragem foi autorizada pela torre de controlo' (The landing was authorized by the control tower). As an object: 'Estamos a preparar a aterragem' (We are preparing the landing). Notice how the definite article a is used before the word. In news reports, you might see it in headlines like 'Aterragem bem-sucedida em Marte' (Successful landing on Mars). The word is versatile and behaves predictably within Portuguese syntax. If you want to describe the place where it happens, you use pista de aterragem (landing strip/runway).

Vimos a aterragem do helicóptero no topo do hospital.

Another important aspect is the plural form: aterragens. In Portuguese, nouns ending in '-m' change to '-ns' in the plural. 'As aterragens frequentes podem desgastar os pneus do avião' (Frequent landings can wear out the plane's tires). Whether you are describing a single event or a general process, the word remains the standard choice for the descent and contact phase of flight. Using it correctly shows a good grasp of A2-level vocabulary and an understanding of Portuguese noun suffixes. It is also worth noting that in technical flight logs, the word is often abbreviated, but in standard communication, it is always written in full.

The most common place to hear aterragem is, unsurprisingly, at the airport. Listen for the 'Public Address' (PA) system announcements in Portuguese airports like Lisbon (LIS) or Faro (FAO). You will hear phrases like 'Atenção, passageiros, o voo da TAP está a iniciar a aterragem.' Pilots also use this word when communicating with passengers: 'Senhores passageiros, preparem-se para a aterragem.' In these contexts, the word is spoken clearly and formally. It is also a staple of television news, especially when reporting on weather conditions affecting flights or dramatic aviation incidents. If there is a storm in the Azores, the news will report that 'várias aterragens foram canceladas' (several landings were canceled).

News Media: Journalists use it to describe everything from military maneuvers to commercial flight schedules.
In-Flight Announcements: The cabin crew will use it when instructing passengers to stow their tray tables and return seats to the upright position.

Ouvimos o anúncio sobre a aterragem iminente enquanto sobrevoávamos o Tejo.

You will also encounter this word in documentaries about space or aviation history. When discussing Gago Coutinho and Sacadura Cabral (famous Portuguese aviators), historians will describe their aterragens during their crossing of the South Atlantic. In a more modern context, fans of drone photography use the term when discussing the return-to-home features of their devices. Even in video games like flight simulators, the Portuguese interface will use aterragem for the landing phase. It is a word that spans from the highly technical to the completely mundane, ensuring that if you are involved in any form of travel, you will hear it frequently.

A aterragem forçada na praia foi a notícia principal de hoje.

Finally, in literature and cinema, the word is used to build tension. A 'difficult landing' is a classic trope. In Portuguese-dubbed action movies, when a plane is in trouble, the dialogue will revolve around the possibility of a safe aterragem. Because it is a long, somewhat formal-sounding word, it carries a weight that the shorter Brazilian pouso sometimes lacks in a dramatic context. Whether you are at a gate waiting for a friend or watching a space launch on RTP (the Portuguese public broadcaster), aterragem is the word that signals the end of the flight and the return to solid ground.

One of the most frequent mistakes learners make with aterragem is getting its gender wrong. Many English speakers assume that abstract nouns are masculine, or they might be influenced by Spanish where many '-agem' equivalents (like '-aje') are masculine (e.g., el aterrizaje). In Portuguese, however, aterragem is strictly feminine. Saying 'o aterragem' is a clear marker of a non-native speaker. Always remember: a aterragem. Another common error is confusing the noun aterragem with the verb aterrar. You cannot 'aterragem' a plane; you aterras a plane. The noun describes the event, while the verb describes the action.

Gender Confusion: Mistaking 'a aterragem' (feminine) for 'o aterragem' (masculine). This is common for Spanish speakers.
Spelling with Brazil: Using 'aterrissagem' (with double 's' and 'i') instead of 'aterragem'. While understood, 'aterragem' is the standard in Portugal.

Incorrect: O aterragem foi bom.
Correct: A aterragem foi boa.

Another mistake is the over-reliance on the word 'pouso'. While pouso is perfectly correct and very common in Brazil, if you are in Portugal, aterragem is the more natural-sounding term for commercial aviation. Using pouso in a formal context in Portugal might sound slightly informal or regional. Furthermore, learners sometimes struggle with the plural form. Remember that the 'm' at the end changes to 'ns' (aterragens). Don't try to add a simple 's' to the 'm'.

Incorrect: Houve muitas aterragem hoje.
Correct: Houve muitas aterragens hoje.

Lastly, avoid using aterragem for things that don't involve a surface like the ground. For example, if a boat comes to shore, you use atracagem (docking) or desembarque (disembarking). If a plane lands on water, the specific term is amerissagem, though aterragem na água is sometimes heard in casual speech. Being precise with these terms helps you sound more like a native speaker and shows a deeper understanding of Portuguese vocabulary. Focus on the 'terra' root to remember that aterragem is specifically for 'the ground'.

While aterragem is the most common term for an aircraft landing in Portugal, there are several synonyms and related words you should know to enrich your vocabulary. The most significant alternative is pouso. This is the primary word used in Brazil. In Portugal, it is also used, but often in a more general sense (like a bird landing) or in specific aeronautical contexts. Another related term is aterrissagem. This is an alternative spelling and pronunciation that is very common in Brazil and sometimes used in Portugal, though aterragem is generally preferred in European Portuguese for its simplicity and traditional usage.

aterragem vs. pouso: Aterragem is the standard in Portugal for planes. Pouso is the standard in Brazil and can also mean 'a place to rest'.
aterragem vs. amerissagem: Aterragem is on land (terra). Amerissagem is on water (mar).
aterragem vs. alunagem: Alunagem is specifically for landing on the moon (lua).

O hidroavião fez uma amerissagem perfeita no rio, não uma aterragem.

If you are talking about the arrival of a flight in a general sense, you might use chegada (arrival). For example, 'A hora de chegada do voo é às 10:00'. However, chegada covers the whole process of arriving at the airport, while aterragem specifically refers to the moment the plane touches the ground. Another word is descida (descent), which is the phase of flight leading up to the landing. You might hear: 'O avião iniciou a sua descida para a aterragem'.

A alunagem da Apollo 11 foi um marco histórico para a humanidade.

Understanding these distinctions helps you navigate different regions and contexts. If you are reading a Brazilian newspaper, don't be surprised to see pouso everywhere. If you are at Lisbon airport, look for aterragem. In specialized science news, look for the 'terra/mar/lua' prefixes to know exactly where the 'landing' is happening. This family of words shows how Portuguese builds technical vocabulary through clear, logical roots.

よくある間違い

O aterragem → A aterragem
The word is feminine, so it must use the feminine article.
Aterragems → Aterragens
The plural of words ending in 'm' is formed by replacing 'm' with 'ns'.
Eu aterragem o avião → Eu aterro o avião
'Aterragem' is a noun, not a verb. Use the verb 'aterrar' for the action.
Aterragem no mar → Amerissagem
While 'aterragem no mar' is understood, 'amerissagem' is the correct technical term.
Pouso (in Portugal) → Aterragem
'Pouso' is more Brazilian; 'aterragem' is the standard in European Portuguese for aviation.

Don't close your lips at the end of 'aterragem'. The 'm' is just a signal to make the vowel nasal.

Root Word

Remembering 'terra' (land) helps you remember that 'aterragem' is about reaching the ground.

Brazil vs Portugal

If you are in Brazil, use 'pouso'. If you are in Portugal, use 'aterragem' for planes.

Emergency Phrases

Learn 'aterragem de emergência'. It is a vital phrase to understand in safety briefings.

Landing Gear

'Trem de aterragem' is the term for landing gear. 'Trem' here means 'gear' or 'set', not 'train'.

Economic Context

'Aterragem suave' is often used in business news to mean a 'soft landing' for the economy.

Plural Spelling

Always change 'm' to 'ns' for the plural: aterragens. This is a consistent rule in Portuguese.

Pilot Talk

Pilots often speak quickly. Listen for the 'rr' and the 'agem' to catch the word 'aterragem'.
