If you’ve just started learning Portuguese, you’ll need to arm yourself with a wide array of words and phrases<\/a>\u00a0in order to communicate, and verbs are an important component of that essential vocabulary.<\/p>\n

In this post, I’ll share 50 of the most<\/strong> common Portuguese verbs<\/strong>, along with their\u00a0present tense conjugations and example sentences.<\/p>\n

Note that “you” varies by country. In Brazil, voc\u00ea\u00a0<\/em>(singular) and voc\u00eas<\/em> (plural) are more commonly used. In Portugal, tu <\/em>(singular) and v\u00f3s <\/em>(plural) are more common.<\/p>\n

Why the Right Portuguese Verbs Are Important<\/h2>\n

Using the best possible verb adds clarity to your communication<\/strong>. Whether you’re speaking Portuguese<\/a> or writing, you probably want to be understood. While you might be able to fumble through with just a few verbs, having more verbs in your vocabulary allows you to communicate much more clearly.<\/p>\n

Additionally, learning common Portuguese verbs will help you understand what others are saying<\/strong>. Even if your Portuguese listening skills<\/a> are on point, you can’t always deduce verb meanings based on context. Familiarizing yourself with common verbs will make it much easier to recognize them when you hear them.<\/p>\n

Finally, knowing an array of verbs will help you sound more like a native speaker<\/strong>. Even tourists who haven’t studied Portuguese will probably know a few basic verbs. However, if you want to sound more like a native speaker, you’ll need a lot more verbs than the standard tourist!<\/p>\n

How to Practice Portuguese Verbs<\/h2>\n

Conjugate!<\/h3>\n

Conjugating verbs is a terrific way to practice. Not only can it help reinforce the word, but it can also help you memorize tricky conjugations.<\/p>\n

To practice conjugating, you might make conjugation tables<\/strong>. Not sure if your conjugations are correct? Check them with a tool like Reverso<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Immerse yourself in Portuguese content.<\/h3>\n

One of the best ways to practice Portuguese verbs is by immersing yourself in authentic Portuguese content<\/strong>. For example, you could watch Portuguese movies<\/a> and TV shows<\/a>, or you could also try using an immersive language learning program like FluentU<\/a>.
