Your native language (Português) quietly pushes you into specific Irish errors. Here are the ones to watch — and the fix for each. This is exactly how WordSlick coaches you, every day.
See my full report & start free →"Estou cansado" → "Tá mé tuirseach"; "sou médico" → "Is dochtúir mé". Portuguese already makes the split Irish needs — port it across directly.
"Tenho um livro" → "Tá leabhar agam"; "estou com fome" → "Tá ocras orm". Route possession through ag and feelings through ar.
Portuguese nasalises freely (pão, mãe); Irish does not. Keep the air out of the nose and put the effort into vowel length instead: "bán", "mór".
The rasping r of "carro" in Brazilian Portuguese sits near the /x/ of "loch". Borrow it, and spend the saved effort on slender consonants.
"An bhfuil tú réidh?" is answered "Tá" or "Níl" — the verb comes back to you, never a yes-word.
Irish opens the sentence with the verb: "Ólaim tae" = I drink tea, "Itheann Seán arán" = Seán eats bread. Action, then who, then what.
