Are there any programs for learning Portuguese that are similar to the Destinos and French in Action format... series of videos for beginners... preferably available online for free?

Not that I know of. It'd be ótimo if there were! The closest to FIA, in my opinion, would probably be Semantica Portuguese's dvd series. It ain't free, but reasonably priced. They have several free clips from their beginners' series on youtube. There's BBC Talk Portuguese which is an 11 part video series. You can also search youtube for beginning Portuguese videos or "Aulas de português para estrangeiros" as well.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help to you. It's slim pickin's out there for Portuguese learners! I hope someone else here on the forum knows a bit more than I. Edited by iguanamon on 30 June 2011 at 5:05am 1 person has voted this message useful | |

This way of doing things was all the rage in the late 80s/early 90s, and in fact the EU (or the EEC or EC or whatever it was called at the time) put money into a "best-practice" cross-language iniative to develop these types of thing.
But it's gone out of fashion now, so they're only still available for languages that don't get a lot of attention (the Scottish Gaelic series Speaking Our Language is always being repeated on the Gaelic channel, and the Catalan series Digui Digui is still floating around in some places. But I would have thought any Portuguese equivalent is likely to have got buried under other materials produced since. 1 person has voted this message useful |
