Master the 2,000 most common Brazilian Portuguese words. Real vocabulary from real usage — the words you'll actually encounter in conversations, books, movies, and music.
The 2,000 most common Brazilian Portuguese words — the essential vocabulary that covers over 90% of everyday speech, reading, and listening comprehension.
Whether you're planning a trip to Brazil, connecting with Portuguese-speaking family, preparing for work abroad, or passionate about learning one of the world's most beautiful languages, this frequency dictionary gives you exactly what you need: the words that matter most, organized by how often they appear in real Brazilian Portuguese.
WHY FREQUENCY MATTERS
Most courses teach vocabulary in arbitrary categories — colors, animals, furniture. But research shows that a small number of high-frequency words make up the vast majority of everyday communication.
The top 100 words typically account for 50% of all speech. The top 1,000 cover about 85%. With 2,000 words, you understand over 90% of conversations, books, movies, music, and online content.
This app puts those essential words at your fingertips, ranked by actual frequency. Start with word #1 and work through. Every word you learn has maximum impact.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
◆ REAL BRAZILIAN PORTUGUESE
Every word, definition, and example reflects how Portuguese is actually spoken in Brazil — not European Portuguese, not textbook Portuguese.
◆ MULTIPLE MEANINGS
Many words have several meanings depending on context. This dictionary shows all common meanings, ranked by frequency.
◆ CONTEXT THROUGH EXAMPLES
Every meaning includes 3+ example sentences demonstrating real usage. See how words work in natural Brazilian Portuguese sentences.
◆ ORGANIZED BY FREQUENCY
Words ranked by how often they appear. The most important words come first. Build vocabulary strategically.
◆ VERB FORMS INCLUDED
Unlike traditional dictionaries listing only infinitives, this includes conjugated forms as separate entries. Learn "foi" (was/went) and "está" (is/are) as distinct words.
◆ CONTRACTIONS COVERED
Brazilian Portuguese uses many contractions — "do" (de + o), "na" (em + a), "nele" (em + ele). These appear as their own entries.
