解説 danificado in your Level:

At the A1 level, you should learn 'danificado' as a basic word to describe things that are 'not okay' or 'broken'. Think of it like the opposite of 'novo' (new) or 'bom' (good) when looking at an object. You will mostly use it in simple sentences with the verb 'estar'. For example, if you see a toy with a scratch, you can say 'O brinquedo está danificado'. At this stage, focus on the masculine 'danificado' and feminine 'danificada'. Don't worry too much about technical synonyms yet; just use it to tell someone that an object is hurt or has a problem. It is a very useful word for when you are shopping or receiving a gift that isn't perfect.

At the A2 level, you start using 'danificado' in more specific contexts, like travel and shopping. You should be able to describe why something is damaged. For example, 'A mala está danificada porque caiu' (The suitcase is damaged because it fell). You will also notice this word on signs and in simple emails. You should practice the plural forms: 'Os livros estão danificados'. This is also the stage where you distinguish 'danificado' (physical damage) from 'estragado' (often used for food or things that don't work). You are building the foundation to explain problems to a clerk or a friend using this adjective and simple 'because' (porque) clauses.

At the B1 level, you use 'danificado' in more formal situations, such as writing a complaint or explaining an insurance claim. You should be comfortable using adverbs to describe the degree of damage: 'parcialmente danificado' (partially damaged) or 'severamente danificado' (severely damaged). You will also encounter the word in news reports and more complex digital contexts, like 'arquivo danificado' (damaged file). At this level, you should understand that 'danificado' is the past participle of the verb 'danificar'. You can start using passive voice: 'O carro foi danificado no acidente'. You are moving beyond simple descriptions into explaining events and consequences involving damaged items.

At the B2 level, you can use 'danificado' with nuance and precision. You understand the subtle differences between 'danificado', 'avariado' (common in Portugal), and 'deteriorado' (decayed over time). You can use the word in abstract contexts, such as 'reputação danificada' (damaged reputation) or 'imagem danificada'. Your vocabulary is rich enough to use related words like 'danos' (damages/losses) in legal or financial discussions. You can participate in debates about environmental issues, describing how ecosystems are 'danificados' by pollution. You should be able to write detailed reports where 'danificado' is used to provide objective evidence of harm in professional settings.

At the C1 level, 'danificado' is part of a sophisticated vocabulary where you choose it specifically for its formal and objective tone. You recognize its use in legal statutes and high-level technical documentation. You can use it in complex grammatical structures, such as 'Tendo sido danificado pela tempestade, o navio não pôde zarpar' (Having been damaged by the storm, the ship could not set sail). You are aware of regional variations and can identify when a speaker uses 'danificado' versus more idiomatic expressions like 'nas últimas' or 'em frangalhos' to describe something in poor condition. You use the word to construct persuasive arguments in academic or professional writing.

At the C2 level, you have complete mastery of 'danificado' and its entire word family. You can use it with stylistic flair in literature or high-level journalism. You understand the etymological roots (from Latin 'damnum') and how this connects it to other Romance languages.

Your usage is indistinguishable from a highly educated native speaker.

danificado 30秒で

Danificado is a Portuguese adjective meaning 'damaged' or 'impaired', typically used for physical objects, vehicles, and digital files that have suffered some form of harm.
It requires gender and number agreement with the noun it modifies, changing to danificada (feminine), danificados (masculine plural), or danificadas (feminine plural).
While similar to 'quebrado' (broken) and 'estragado' (spoiled/malfunctioning), danificado is the standard professional term for physical damage in insurance, shipping, and technical reports.
It is most commonly used with the verb 'estar' to describe a current state or 'ser' in passive voice constructions to describe how something was damaged.

The Portuguese word danificado is a versatile adjective primarily used to describe something that has sustained physical harm, impairment, or a reduction in quality due to an external force or accident. While it is often translated as 'damaged' in English, its usage in Portuguese carries specific nuances depending on whether you are discussing a delivery from an online store, a car after a minor collision, or even a digital file that refuses to open. At its core, danificado suggests that an object is no longer in its original, pristine condition, but it does not necessarily mean the object is completely destroyed or 'broken' (quebrado) into pieces.

Physical Goods: In the context of logistics and commerce, this is the standard term used to describe products that arrive at a customer's door with scratches, dents, or functional flaws. If you receive a package where the box is crushed, you would state that the product is danificado.
Technical and Digital Contexts: Portuguese speakers frequently apply this term to technology. A 'damaged file' is a arquivo danificado, and a 'damaged hard drive' is a disco rígido danificado. It implies a corruption of data or a hardware malfunction that prevents normal operation.
Legal and Insurance Language: When filing a claim (sinistro) with an insurance company in Brazil or Portugal, danificado is the formal descriptor for the insured property. It serves as a neutral, objective way to categorize the state of the asset without using slang or overly emotional language.

O técnico informou que o motor do veículo estava seriamente danificado após a enchente.

Translation: The technician informed that the vehicle's engine was seriously damaged after the flood.

Understanding the difference between danificado and its synonyms is crucial for reaching a B1 or B2 level of fluency. While quebrado means 'broken' (often implying it's in multiple pieces), danificado is broader. For example, a phone screen can be danificado (scratched) without being quebrado (shattered). Similarly, estragado is often reserved for food that has gone bad or machines that have simply stopped working due to wear and tear rather than a specific damaging event.

Infelizmente, a pintura original da igreja foi danificada pela umidade excessiva.

In everyday conversation, you will hear this word in shops, at the airport when discussing luggage, or when talking about infrastructure. If a road is full of potholes, people might say the asphalt is danificado. It conveys a sense of loss of integrity. It is less common to use this for people's emotions (where 'magoado' or 'ferido' would be better), though in very formal or poetic contexts, one might speak of a 'damaged reputation' (reputação danificada).

Common Context: Deliveries: "O pacote chegou com o conteúdo danificado." (The package arrived with the contents damaged.)
Common Context: Natural Disasters: "Muitas casas foram danificadas pelo furacão." (Many houses were damaged by the hurricane.)

O arquivo de vídeo está danificado e não pode ser reproduzido.

Mastering the use of danificado involves understanding its role as an adjective and its relationship with the verb ser (to be - permanent/characteristic) and estar (to be - temporary state). In most cases, you will use estar because damage is usually a state that occurred at a specific point in time and could potentially be repaired. For example, 'O carro está danificado' (The car is [currently] damaged). If you use ser, you are often describing the nature of an object in a more definitive or passive voice context, such as 'O prédio foi danificado' (The building was damaged).

Agreement with Gender and Number: Portuguese adjectives must match the noun.
- Masculine Singular: O livro danificado.
- Feminine Singular: A mala danificada.
- Masculine Plural: Os móveis danificados.
- Feminine Plural: As roupas danificadas.

As mercadorias foram danificadas durante o transporte marítimo.

Translation: The goods were damaged during sea transport.

When constructing sentences, danificado often follows the noun it describes. While in English we say 'the damaged car,' in Portuguese we say 'o carro danificado.' However, if you are emphasizing the state of the object, you can place it after a verb. Use adverbs like parcialmente (partially), totalmente (totally), or levemente (slightly) to add precision to your descriptions.

Não compre este celular; a tela está visivelmente danificada.

In professional writing, such as an incident report or a formal complaint to a company, danificado is the preferred term over more colloquial options like 'estragado'. It sounds objective and professional. If you are writing a review for a product that arrived in poor condition, using 'produto danificado' will signal to the seller that you are making a serious claim. Below are more examples of how the word integrates into complex sentence structures.

With Adverbs: "O teto da casa ficou severamente danificado após a queda da árvore." (The roof of the house was severely damaged after the tree fell.)
In Questions: "Você notou se o equipamento já estava danificado quando você o recebeu?" (Did you notice if the equipment was already damaged when you received it?)

O patrimônio histórico foi danificado por vândalos durante a noite.

If you are traveling in a Portuguese-speaking country or living there, you will encounter danificado in several specific high-frequency environments. One of the most common places is at the airport. When you go to the 'Lost and Found' or 'Baggage Claim' (Reclamação de Bagagem) because your suitcase has a broken wheel or a tear, the official form will likely ask you to describe the mala danificada. The staff will use this term to document the extent of the harm for compensation purposes.

At the Post Office (Correios): If you are sending or receiving a package, the clerk might warn you: 'A embalagem está danificada, quer conferir o conteúdo?' (The packaging is damaged, do you want to check the contents?). This is a standard procedure to ensure the recipient acknowledges the state of the parcel before signing for it.
In Real Estate and Rentals: When renting an apartment (aluguel), the 'vistoria' (inspection report) is a critical document. It will list every item in the house. If a window doesn't close properly or a wall has a crack, the report will state: 'Janela danificada' or 'Parede danificada'. This protects both the landlord and the tenant.

Senhores passageiros, pedimos desculpas pelo atraso; o trilho foi danificado pelo calor intenso.

Translation: Ladies and gentlemen, we apologize for the delay; the rail was damaged by the intense heat.

In the digital age, danificado is also the word your computer or smartphone uses in error messages. If you try to open a PDF that didn't download correctly, the system might say: 'O arquivo está danificado e não pode ser aberto.' This context is universal across all Portuguese-speaking regions, from Brazil to Angola to Portugal. It’s also a staple in news broadcasting. After a storm, the news anchor will report on 'casas danificadas' (damaged houses) or 'veículos danificados' (damaged vehicles).

Atenção: não utilize o carregador se o cabo estiver danificado.

Finally, you'll see this word on warning signs. If a piece of playground equipment is unsafe, a sign might read: 'Equipamento danificado - Proibido o uso.' This is a safety-critical use of the word that every learner should recognize immediately to avoid accidents. Whether in a legal document, a software popup, or a physical sign, danificado is the go-to term for signaling that something is not in its proper working or structural order.

News Headlines: "Estrada danificada pelas chuvas bloqueia o acesso à cidade." (Road damaged by rains blocks access to the city.)
Customer Support: "Por favor, envie uma foto do item danificado para processarmos o reembolso." (Please send a photo of the damaged item so we can process the refund.)

One of the most frequent mistakes English speakers make when using danificado is failing to adjust the word for gender and number. Since 'damaged' in English is invariable, it's easy to forget that in Portuguese, a 'damaged house' is casa danificada (feminine) while a 'damaged car' is carro danificado (masculine). Another common pitfall is using danificado when estragado would be more natural, especially regarding food or general mechanical breakdowns that aren't caused by an external impact.

Danificado vs. Estragado: Use danificado for physical harm or structural issues (dents, scratches, broken parts). Use estragado for food that is rotten or a machine that 'just won't turn on' without obvious external damage. You wouldn't say the milk is 'danificado'; you would say it's 'estragado'.
Danificado vs. Quebrado: This is a nuance of intensity. Quebrado usually means something is in pieces or completely snapped. A 'danificado' chair might have a deep scratch; a 'quebrada' chair has a leg that fell off. If you use 'danificado' for something that is in shards, it sounds like an understatement.

Errado: O leite está danificado.
Correto: O leite está estragado.

Explanation: Food becomes 'estragado' (spoiled), not 'danificado'.

Learners also struggle with the preposition that follows the verb form danificar. While the adjective danificado doesn't usually take a preposition, the verb danificar is transitive, meaning it takes a direct object. However, if you want to say something was damaged *by* something, you must use the preposition por (or its contractions pelo, pela, pelos, pelas). Forgetting this 'by' link is a common error in passive sentences.

Errado: As mesas estão danificado.
Correto: As mesas estão danificadas.

A final common mistake involves using danificado for people's feelings. While in English you might say someone is 'damaged' by their past, in Portuguese, using danificado for a person sounds very robotic or clinical, as if they were a piece of hardware. To express emotional damage, Portuguese speakers prefer traumatizado (traumatized), magoado (hurt), or abalado (shaken/disturbed). Using the correct emotional vocabulary will make you sound much more like a native speaker.

Register Errors: Using 'danificado' in a very informal setting like a party to describe a spilled drink might sound too formal. In that case, 'sujou' (got dirty) or 'estragou' (ruined) is better.

Portuguese is a rich language with many specific terms for different types of damage. Choosing the right one depends on the object and the severity of the harm. While danificado is the most general and safe 'all-purpose' word, knowing these alternatives will help you sound more precise. For instance, avariado is a very common synonym, particularly in European Portuguese and in technical contexts involving machinery or vehicles. If a car breaks down on the highway, it is avariado.

Avariado vs. Danificado: Avariado is specifically for malfunctions or breakdowns. A computer that won't turn on is 'avariado'. A computer with a cracked screen is 'danificado'. In Portugal, 'avariado' is used more frequently than in Brazil for general breakdowns.
Deteriorado: This term implies a slow process of decay or worsening over time. You use deteriorado for old buildings, ancient documents, or health. It suggests that time and environment, rather than a single accident, caused the state.
Prejudicado: This word is more abstract. It means 'harmed' or 'disadvantaged'. You can use it for people or situations. 'Minha visão foi prejudicada pela luz' (My vision was harmed by the light). It is also common in legal contexts regarding loss of profit or rights.

O estado do livro estava tão deteriorado que as páginas se desfaziam ao toque.

Translation: The state of the book was so deteriorated that the pages fell apart at the touch.

When dealing with clothing or fabrics, you might use rasgado (torn) or manchado (stained) instead of the generic danificado. In construction, rachado (cracked) is very specific. If you are describing a person's reputation or a relationship, abalado (shaken) or comprometido (compromised) are much more natural choices. Below is a comparison table to help you distinguish between these closely related terms.

A imagem da empresa foi prejudicada pelo escândalo recente.

Finally, for very severe damage that is beyond repair, the word destruído (destroyed) is the ultimate choice. If a car is 'danificado', you take it to the mechanic. If it's 'destruído', you take it to the scrapyard. Using these synonyms correctly will demonstrate a high level of linguistic sensitivity and prevent misunderstandings in critical situations like insurance claims or technical reports.

Context: Electronics: Use queimado if an electronic component has suffered a short circuit or power surge damage. 'O carregador está queimado'.

How Formal Is It?

The word is a 'cognate' with the English word 'damn' and 'damage', all coming from the same Latin root 'damnum'. When you say something is 'danificado', you are literally saying it has 'damnum' (loss) inside it.

元の意味： To cause loss or harm to someone's property or status.

Romance (Latin-derived).

Yes. 'O carro danificado' (masculine) and 'a mesa danificada' (feminine). This is a strict rule in Portuguese grammar.
