5 Slangs I Learned in Porto Alegre
One of the coolest things about traveling around Brazil is learning about regional differences in Portuguese. Each state has its own distinct flavor of Portuguese with its own accent and slang. The differences between some regions are so pronounced that sometimes Brazilians can’t even understand each other.
Recently I got to experience the dialect spoken by the Gaúchos, the people from Rio Grande do Sul. On a short trip I made to Porto Alegre I learned several regional slangs that I want to share with you today.
