\"\"<\/a>Ol\u00e1, pessoal! Tudo bem?<\/p>\n

Today we start a new series of posts with irregular verbs in the main tenses in Portuguese. I’m pretty sure you already know all the persons in the conjugations so I am going to give only the verb forms. I used the Brazilian form pronouns eu<\/em> (I), voc\u00ea<\/em> (you), ele<\/em> (he), n\u00f3s<\/em> (we), you<\/em> (voc\u00eas) and eles<\/em> (they).<\/p>\n

Make sure you know these conjugations by heart because they are extremely important on your path towards fluency.<\/p>\nhttps:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/portuguese\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2013\/01\/first-conjugation.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n
