8. Gramática: Gostar, Começar e Acabar

from 🇵🇹 Slow Portuguese With Maria Hosted by Maria Amador

In this episode of we cover three essential verbs in European Portuguese: "Gostar", "Começar", and "Acabar". You’ll learn the rules and prepositions that accompany these verbs in various contexts. We’ll also explore the idiomatic expression "a torto e a direito", used to describe chaotic or disorganized situations. "Gostar de" is always used with the preposition "de". "Começar a" indicates the beginning of an action. "Começar por" is used in a sequence. "Acabar de" means that something has just happened "Acabar por" indicates a decision made at the end of a situation.
