Although most people in Portugal understand and speak English, it is nice to be able to make the effort to try and speak even a few words of Portuguese. If you don’t get the pronunciation right, don’t worry! The Portuguese people would still rather that you try, whether you are simply saying hello or are asking for a return ticket on the bus! Here are a few phrases to get you going!
