The complete Brazilian Portuguese course — A1 to C2 — built around how people actually speak in Brazil.
We don't offer you 20 languages or try to teach both European and Brazilian Portuguese. Falando does one thing: Brazilian Portuguese. All the material is centered around real-life situations in Brazil and Brazilian culture.
We keep it simple: one language, one variant, one clear path. Everything is tuned to Brazil—voices, examples, slang, cultural context. That focus gives you confidence to express yourself in real-life situations.
Clear explanations, concise summaries, examples and exercises for over 170 grammar points. You'll never need to reach for your textbook again.
Train your ear with hundreds of high-quality audio exercises rooted in everyday Brazilian life.
Thousands of vocabulary items, each with multiple example sentences, organized by difficulty (CEFR) level and theme.
Import your favorite YouTube videos and articles in Portuguese to discover new vocabulary and test your understanding.
We also teach you regional variants and all the words you SHOULDN'T bring to the Sunday lunch with vovó.
Have some fun, too: collect belts, badges and experience points as you go. Complete daily quests and discover interesting trivia to deepen your knowledge of Brazil.

Thousands of people are building real Brazilian Portuguese with Falando every day.
“I tried three other apps before Falando and they all taught me a Portuguese I couldn't use in Brazil. This is the first course that actually sounds like my friends in São Paulo.”
“I really like how the reviews work in this app. Ten minutes on the train every morning, and I finally stopped forgetting verb conjugations the week after I learned them.”
“The Celpe-Bras simulation was a game changer. I walked into the real exam already knowing the format cold and passed on my first attempt.”
“Why aren't more language apps like this one? So much content and so many practice modes, I'm never bored with this app and there's always something to do.”
“I love that it teaches the slang and everyday expressions my in-laws actually use. In other apps you learn Portuguese that nobody really speaks in Brazil.”
“Great app!!! I wish we had apps like this for more languages, many different ways to go through the same material.”

Absolutely. Import YouTube videos and articles in Portuguese, get instant transcripts or text, discover new vocabulary, and save items to your review queue. Real-world content, zero setup.
