To that end, "all those who want to learn to communicate and interact in European Portuguese in basic everyday situations" are invited, such as introducing themselves and introducing someone, obtaining and giving information, buying a ticket, going to a café or restaurant, shopping, making a reservation or occupying free time.
A source from the University of Porto explained to Lusa that this course is offered by the Faculty of Arts (FLUP) and the Educational Innovation Unit (IE) of the University of Porto to all those who want to learn our language, namely students who are preparing to come on Erasmus, provided that they also register, free of charge, on the course page on the edX education platform.
"It is not necessary to have previous knowledge of Portuguese", since it is an introductory course to the Language.
With an estimated time of dedication and study of 32 hours, the course learning itinerary is based on a fiction series consisting of eight weekly episodes/modules, starring professional actors, in typical spaces of the city of Porto.
According to the source, in addition to learning Portuguese, participants also have the opportunity to learn about the way of life of the people of Porto, counting on the support of a team of teachers "with extensive experience" in teaching Portuguese as a Foreign Language.
In this course, "we propose a trip to Porto, one of the most beautiful and characteristic cities in Portugal, so that you can learn the Portuguese language and a part of this cultural richness, with a team of teachers who are very committed and have great experience in teaching Portuguese", led by university professors Fátima Silva and Ana Isabel Fernandes.
The objective is that at the end of this training action, students will be able to introduce themselves and introduce others, ask questions and give answers about personal information (nationality, place of residence, languages spoken, profession), establish social contacts using appropriate forms of greeting, introduction and farewell and communicate in a simple way to meet basic communicative needs in everyday life, namely going to a café and restaurant, buying tickets, shopping, asking for information or getting around the city.
To this end, they will be taught to pronounce, in isolation, most of the sounds of the Portuguese language, and, in context, to say words, phrases and short texts, to use a basic repertoire of vocabulary related to everyday life and to use elementary linguistic structures.
