Fruits in Portuguese: 40 Flashcards– Portuguese lesson

Fruits in Portuguese: 40 Flashcards– Portuguese lesson

posted on May 3, 2011

fruits in portuguese - portuguese lesson - 40 flashcards

Brazil is big on fruits and fruit juice. In Rio de Janeiro you see juice bars everywhere. It will be useful and fun to learn the fruits in Portuguese so you can enjoy fresh fruit and juices in Brazil.

One of the things I miss the most is suco de cajá. Cajá is a delicious, small, oval-shaped, yellow fruit that makes refreshing juice and ice cream. I’ve done  some research and found out that in English cajá is called hog-plum. The cajá picture below is from ice-cream maker Kibbon:

If you have ever been to Brazil, you probably had the opportunity to see, smell, touch, and taste some tropical fruits, including some you cannot find in the US, such as caju.

You will also get some great suggestions from Luciana on her post about fruits you must try in Brazil.

So, to make sure you will be able to enjoy cajá, caju, and your favorite fruits when you are in Brazil, check out my flashcards below with fruits in Portuguese. The flashcards have sound.

This set also has flashcards to teach you how to say that a fruit is ripe, green, or spoiled. Useful, right?
