- PS1: When \"e\" and \"o\" come in the end of a word, they\'re pronounced like \"i\" (ee) and \"u\" (oo), respectively (actually, here in Brazil we have places where people pronounce the \"e\" like \"e\" really). Thus, the \"(closed/open e/o)\" notes are not concerning to the last \"e\" or \"o\" in the word
PS2: \"lh\" and \"nh\" are digraphs and have \"softened\" sounds, no equivalent in English
PS3: When preceding \"i\" and \"e\", the \"c\" sounds like the \"s\" in [b]s[/b]ound; when preceding \"a\", \"o\" and \"u\", it sounds like in [b]c[/b]ar
PS4: \"ç\" is equivalent to the \"s\" [b]s[/b]ound
PS5: Tildes nasalize the vowels (ã and õ)
PS6: The stress syllable is in bold

body - [b]cor[/b]po (closed \"o\")

eyelash - [b]cí[/b]lio

cheek - bo[b]che[/b]cha (closed \"o\" and \"e\") note: unlike Spanish, \"ch\" sounds like \"sh\" in Port.
