Family (a família) is central to Portuguese and Brazilian culture.
In this lesson, you'll learn vocabulary for family members and how to describe your family.
You'll also learn possessive adjectives and how to talk about what your family does.
In both Portugal and Brazil, family ties are very strong. Extended families often live close together and gather for Sunday lunch. In Brazil, family gatherings (reuniões de família) with dozens of relatives are common, especially during holidays.
