sound files - Hi guys,

i'm looking for portuguese Brazilian sound files, especially for vowels and consonant prononciation.

Someone know a good website or anything else that can help ?

THanks :)

- I suppose I could help. I can record files myself for you if you like. We'd only have to schedule a meeting - ICQ, MSN, Yahoo or something (a file-sharing program so that I could send you the files).

Peace,

- Hi Kennedy,


it would be Awesome if you can do that for me :) it will take you few minutes to make me understand pronounciation of Brazilian portuguese. My girlfriend is portuguese from Portugal but i'm taking a course at university and it's in brezilian portuguese, so i can't use my gf to make those sound files.

i need a very clear sound well pronounced and then pronounced as when you spoke in everydays life with a 5 sec pause between each words.


I need those :

[ a ]A as in : há , pá , gato, a

[ Ə ]A as in : nada, vaca, capa, cama, manga, manhã, a

[ α ]A as in : tal, cal, sal, qual, a

[ e ]E as in : bebo, dedo, abelha, e

[ e ]Ê as in : ipê, você, êxito, ê

[ ε ]E as in : ferro, berro, e

[ o ]O as in : podre, morro, amor, o

[ o ]Ô as in : alô, avô, esôfago, ô

[ כ ]O as in : cola, sol, agora, o

[ כ ]Ó as in : dó, nó, pó, avó, ó

[ i ]I as in : si, li, fita, vi, bico, i

[ i ]E as in : bife, disse, limite

[ u ]U as in : uva, lúcido, bambu, u

[ u ]O as in : mudo, tudo, luto, caro, o


I will need Diphthongs too but i dont have any word for examples:

[ ae ]
[ ãe ]
[ ão ]
[ õe ]
[ ou ]



So you can send me them to my hotmail when you will be ready. My adress is zarkann@hotmail.com i have a 250mb mailbox so i think it will be ok just make audio file max 5 mb each and send them one by one :)

Thanks Kennedy, i appreciate it ! :)))

Ben.
