In Brazilian Portuguese there are several words of French origin but it is clear that Brazilians pronounce these words in a very local way.
To help me with this video I invited my student Marie, who will pronounce the words in French and I will pronounce the words in Portuguese.
Marie is French and is a French teacher and has a really cool project on Instagram, where she gives lots of French tips. Check out her profile because it’s worth it: Boost Your French
