6. Gramática: Ir a, Ir para e Ir em

from 🇵🇹 Slow Portuguese With Maria Hosted by Maria Amador

In today’s episode we look into the differences between these three tricky constructions in European Portuguese: "ir a", "ir para", and the rarely used "ir em". You’ll learn when to use each one, whether it’s for a short visit, a more permanent move. Fui ao supermercado: I went to the supermarket (a short visit). Vou a Lisboa amanhã: I am going to Lisbon tomorrow (a short visit). Vou ao médico: I go to the doctor (a short visit). Vou para casa: I am going home and I will no come back (permanent visit) Eu vou a casa: I am going home and I will come back (I forgot my jacket and it’s cold) NEVER NEVER NEVER Eu vou no restaurante Eu vou no médico Exciting News!
