설명 economicamente in your Level:

At the A1 level, you don't need to use 'economicamente' very often. However, it is good to recognize that the ending '-mente' is like '-ly' in English. You can think of this word as meaning 'with money in mind'. If you want to say you are trying to spend less, you might see this word in a simple news headline or a basic text about a country. It is a 'long word' but it is easy to understand because it looks like 'economically'. At this stage, focus on the root 'economia' (economy) and the adjective 'econômico' (cheap/economic). Knowing that 'economicamente' is the adverb version helps you see how Portuguese builds words. You might use it in a very simple sentence like: 'Eu viajo economicamente' (I travel economically/cheaply).

At the A2 level, you are starting to talk about more than just your immediate needs. You might discuss your job, your city, or basic news. 'Economicamente' becomes useful here to describe how things are done. You can use it to explain why you chose one product over another: 'Este carro é melhor economicamente'. You are also learning to form adverbs. Recognizing that 'econômica' (the feminine adjective) + 'mente' creates this word is a key grammar milestone. You will start to hear this word in weather reports or news snippets about the cost of living. It is a step up from just saying 'barato' (cheap) and shows you are developing a more mature vocabulary. Practice using it to describe actions, like 'comer economicamente' (eating in a way that saves money).

At the B1 level, you should be able to use 'economicamente' to express opinions on social and financial matters. You can use it in debates about the environment, education, or government. For example: 'O governo deve agir economicamente para reduzir a dívida'. You are now distinguishing between 'financeiramente' (related to cash) and 'economicamente' (related to the broader economy or resource management). You can also use the phrase 'economicamente falando' to transition between topics in a conversation. This level requires you to understand the word in more complex texts, such as articles about the impact of technology on the workforce. You should be comfortable placing the adverb correctly in a sentence, usually after the verb it modifies.

Your usage reflects an understanding of the word's role in macro-economics. You can discuss the implications of globalization or inflation using this term. In a job interview, you might use it to describe your management style: 'Eu gerencio projetos economicamente, focando na eficiência'.

economicamente 30초 만에

An adverb meaning 'economically', used for financial efficiency and macro-economic contexts.
Formed by the feminine adjective 'econômica' plus the suffix '-mente'.
Essential for business, news, and formal Portuguese communication.
Commonly used in phrases like 'economicamente viável' or 'economicamente falando'.

The Portuguese word economicamente is a high-utility adverb that translates directly to 'economically' in English. It is formed by taking the feminine form of the adjective econômico (economic) and adding the suffix -mente, which is the standard Portuguese way to transform adjectives into adverbs, similar to the English '-ly'. Understanding this word is essential for anyone looking to discuss finance, business, sociology, or even personal lifestyle choices in Portuguese.

Financial Viability: When a project or an idea is described as being economicamente viável, it means that it makes financial sense. It suggests that the benefits or profits outweigh the costs involved. This is a staple phrase in business meetings and government planning sessions across Portugal and Brazil.
Social and Macro Context: In a broader sense, the word is used to describe the status of nations or social classes. One might say a country is economicamente estável (economically stable) or that a group is economicamente desfavorecido (economically disadvantaged/underprivileged). It provides a formal layer to descriptions of wealth and resource distribution.
Efficiency and Frugality: On a personal level, economicamente can describe the act of living within one's means or managing resources efficiently. While 'poupar' (to save) is a verb, 'viver economicamente' describes the lifestyle of being careful with expenditures to ensure long-term sustainability.

Esta nova tecnologia permite que as empresas operem mais economicamente, reduzindo desperdícios significativos.

Translation: This new technology allows companies to operate more economically, reducing significant waste.

The word carries a neutral to formal register. You will rarely hear it in casual slang, but you will encounter it constantly in the 'Economia' section of newspapers like Público or Folha de S.Paulo. It implies a level of analytical thinking. Instead of just saying something is 'cheap' (barato), using economicamente suggests you are considering the systemic financial implications of an action.

O país está economicamente isolado devido às sanções internacionais.

Furthermore, the term is vital in academic discourse. Students of economics, international relations, and political science use it to qualify their arguments. If you are discussing the impact of a policy, you might distinguish between its social impact and its economic impact by using this adverb. It allows for precision that simpler words lack. In the context of the European Union, Portuguese speakers often discuss how member states are economicamente integrated, highlighting the shared currency and trade agreements.

Using economicamente correctly requires understanding its placement within a sentence. In Portuguese, adverbs of manner typically follow the verb they modify, although they can be moved to the beginning of a sentence for emphasis. Let us explore the various syntactic structures where this word shines.

Modifying a Verb: This is the most common usage. It describes how an action is performed.
Example: 'Eles planejaram a viagem economicamente.' (They planned the trip economically.) Here, it tells us the manner of the planning—focused on saving money.
Modifying an Adjective: It is often used to qualify an adjective, providing a specific context.
Example: 'O projeto é economicamente inviável.' (The project is economically unfeasible.) In this case, 'economicamente' specifies in what sense the project is unfeasible.

Para sobreviver à crise, a família teve que se organizar economicamente.

When constructing complex sentences, economicamente serves as a bridge between a general action and a financial consequence. Consider the difference between 'O governo agiu' (The government acted) and 'O governo agiu economicamente' (The government acted economically/financially). The latter implies a strategic financial decision rather than a political or social one. This distinction is crucial in journalistic writing.

Economicamente falando, não há razão para preocupação imediata.

The phrase 'Economicamente falando' (Economically speaking) is a very common sentence starter. It sets the stage for a technical or financial explanation. This is particularly useful in debates or presentations where you need to pivot from one aspect of a topic to the financial aspect. It signals to the listener that you are now wearing your 'economist hat'. In everyday speech, you might use it when discussing household budgets: 'Economicamente, é melhor comprarmos este carro usado do que um novo.'

In the Lusophone world, the word economicamente resonates through various spheres of life. From the bustling financial districts of São Paulo to the government offices in Lisbon, it is a word that denotes serious consideration of resources. If you turn on a Portuguese news channel like SIC Notícias or a Brazilian one like GloboNews, you will hear this word multiple times an hour during the market updates.

In the corporate world, economicamente is used during quarterly reviews. Managers might discuss how to operate more economicamente to increase profit margins. It is less about being 'stingy' and more about 'optimization'. In this context, it is a positive trait, associated with intelligence and foresight. If a CEO says a department is working economicamente, it is high praise for their efficiency.

O setor de turismo é economicamente vital para a região do Algarve.

In political speeches, the word is often used to describe the state of the nation. Politicians might promise to make the country economicamente independent or to support families that are economicamente vulnerable. Here, the word takes on a social weight. It is used to categorize segments of the population and to justify legislative changes. For instance, 'medidas para ajudar os cidadãos economicamente ativos' (measures to help the economically active citizens).

A China tornou-se economicamente dominante no cenário global.

In academic environments, specifically in universities like the University of Coimbra or USP, you will find this word in the titles of research papers and throughout lectures. It is the backbone of discussions regarding development, trade, and fiscal policy. A student might ask, 'Quais são as consequências de ser economicamente dependente de um único produto de exportação?' (What are the consequences of being economically dependent on a single export product?). This demonstrates how the word is used to explore systemic relationships.

While economicamente is a direct cognate of 'economically', English speakers often make subtle errors in its application and pronunciation in Portuguese. The most common pitfall involves confusing it with the adjective econômico or the noun economia.

Confusion with Adjectives: Learners sometimes say 'O plano é economicamente' when they mean 'O plano é econômico'. Remember that economicamente is an adverb and must modify a verb or an adjective, not a noun directly. You would say 'O plano é economicamente vantajoso' (The plan is economically advantageous).
Misplacement in the Sentence: In English, we might say 'Economically, it works'. In Portuguese, while 'Economicamente, funciona' is correct, learners often forget that the adverb usually sounds more natural after the verb in longer sentences: 'Funciona muito bem economicamente'.

Errado: Ele é um homem economicamente.
Correto: Ele vive economicamente.

Another mistake relates to the meaning of 'economic' vs 'economical'. In English, 'economical' often means 'avoiding waste' while 'economic' relates to the economy. In Portuguese, economicamente covers both. This can lead to confusion where a learner might think the word only refers to the national economy, failing to use it in the context of personal saving. Conversely, some use it to mean 'cheap', but 'economicamente' refers to the process or status, not the price tag itself.

Errado: O país está econômico forte.
Correto: O país está economicamente forte.

Finally, watch out for the 'mente' suffix over-usage. While correct, using too many '-mente' adverbs in a single paragraph can make your Portuguese sound repetitive and 'clunky'. Native speakers often swap economicamente for phrases like 'do ponto de vista econômico' (from an economic point of view) or 'em termos financeiros' (in financial terms) to add variety to their speech and writing.

To sound more natural and sophisticated in Portuguese, it is helpful to know the synonyms and related phrases for economicamente. Depending on the context—whether you are talking about money, efficiency, or global markets—different words might be more appropriate.

Financeiramente (Financially): This is the closest synonym. While economicamente often refers to the broader system or the management of resources, financeiramente specifically relates to money, cash flow, and funds. 'Sou financeiramente independente' is more common than 'Sou economicamente independente' when talking about personal bank accounts.
Barato / De forma barata (Cheaply): If you simply mean that something didn't cost much money, economicamente might be too formal. 'Comprei isto barato' or 'Comprei isto por um bom preço' is more natural for everyday shopping.
Com parcimônia (With parsimony/sparingly): This is a more literary or formal way to describe using resources carefully. It implies a high degree of caution and restraint in spending.

Comparação:
1. Ele vive economicamente (Focus on resource management).
2. Ele vive financeiramente bem (Focus on having money).

In a business context, you might use lucrativamente (profitably) if the goal is to emphasize making money rather than just managing it. Another alternative is the phrase de modo sustentável (in a sustainable way), which in modern Portuguese often overlaps with economicamente when discussing long-term financial health. Using these variations will help you avoid the 'learner's trap' of using the same word repeatedly and will make your Portuguese sound more like that of a native speaker.

어원

From the Portuguese adjective 'econômico' (economic) + the adverbial suffix '-mente'. The root comes from the Latin 'oeconomicus', which originated from the Ancient Greek 'oikonomikos' (relating to household management).

원래 의미: Relating to the management of a household or estate.

Romance (Latin root via Greek).

문화적 맥락

No specific sensitivities, but avoid using it to describe people as 'cheap' in a derogatory way; use 'pão-duro' for that, or 'econômico' for a neutral/positive trait.

English speakers use 'economically' in similar ways, but Portuguese speakers use 'economicamente' more often in place of 'financially' in formal settings.

Used in the 'Lei de Responsabilidade Fiscal' in Brazil. Frequent term in the 'Jornal Nacional' financial segments. Common in the writings of Portuguese economist Mário Centeno.

자주 묻는 질문

10 질문

While often used interchangeably, 'financeiramente' specifically refers to money and financial assets (like your bank account), whereas 'economicamente' refers to the broader study of the economy, resource management, or the efficiency of a system. For example, a person is 'financeiramente estável' (has enough money), but a country is 'economicamente estável' (the whole economic system is working well).

Yes, but it is much more formal. If you are talking to a friend about a cheap shirt you bought, say 'comprei barato'. If you are writing a report about how a company saved money, use 'economicamente'. It implies a smart or strategic way of saving, not just a low price.
