Looking at an article on the decline of the Airbus A380.

It's not "Nao"... it's "Não" that's tricky to say... that ão is not exactly a sound that is heard in the English language.

Yeah, I'm not sure how to do that symbol on my keyboard Tongue

It's almost like a soft "n" sound at the end of the word? My ex was from (sorry, gonna do it again, no symbol haha) Sao Paulo and he would say it like "Saun Paulo"

ETA - Ohh I thought he was saying he "couldn't" say it like he was trying not to out of habit or something

yeah... it's a nasal sound... more so in Brazilian.
All nasal sounds carry a bit of that 'gnnn'

Also hold the Alt key and type (on the numpad) 0227... you'll get: ã

Omg this friend, I'm at my fucking wits end with him

"I've literally fallen head over heels for this guy and it makes me sick that I can't say how much because I don't want to scare him off"

You've known him a FUCKING WEEK. Ffs this is just old now, over and over again this happens.

Oh, they're definitely sexy. I'm instantly 50x easier if you speak Italian, Spanish or Portuguese. Yes, I clearly have a type...

But some Portuguese speakers can't say the letter "R", so it goes both ways Tongue

I died when I heard this Brazilian guy call Rihanna "Hihanna", and "Lana Del Hey" as well, sorry Tongue

yeah... Brazillians can have a certain difficulty in saying things properly....

pt-br has evolved and became a bit weird with sounds that are not in the written words and crazy stuff like calling their country "Bráziu".

But pt-pt, the mother tongue, that one gives you some nice R's... trilled or hard? we do it! And they makes us end up sounding a bit like russians Tongue
