Does anyone know of a website where that has both texts and audio read by native speakers
for Brazilian Portuguese. I've been using a very good one for German that I would recommend, the Deutsche Welle "Sprachbar" page (Link http://www.dw.de/dw/0,,9011,00.html) and I would like to find one with a similar format for Portuguese. I would also be interested if anyone knows of one for Modern Greek, Spanish, or Italian. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Brazilian Portuguese: Latest podcast with script from Café Brasil- Agora é Tarde by Luciano Pires. To read the script click "Continue lendo o roteiro". The podcasts are updated weekly and all the archives are available with transcripts. Café Brasil is about many diverse life and cultural aspects interspersed with classic Brazilian music. To me, it's one of the best podcasts in any language.
Another site, that unfortunately hasn't updated its podcasts since December, 2011, is Escriba Café. This podcast is about history, and not just history of Brazil but also such topics as Jack the Ripper and the Vietnam War. Transcripts are available. News: NHK World Portuguese. Click on the link "Ler mais" the articles go in order generally from left to right. Click the audio link and each story link as it comes. You can also get almost the same news in Spanish. The Portuguese speakers all have Bazilian/Paulista accents. What does Japan have to do with Portuguese? Japan has a large population of Japanese-Brazilian immigrants. Some say that São Paulo is the largest Japanese city outside of Japan. If you're not too hung up on only having Brazilian Portuguese, Deutsche Welle- Learning By Ear/ Aprender de ouvido has a great selection of "radionovelas" in African Portuguese intended for Lusophone Africa. Each 10 minute or so podcast has a transcript and if you go to their English site, there is the possibility of making your own bilingual texts. In addition to Portuguese and English, the LBE series is also available in French, Amharic, Hausa and Swahili. The language is more conversational and not overly complicated. I concentrated on Brazilian Portuguese but in a widespread language with many variants, I like to be at least familiar with as many as possible. One of the best LR sites is Librivox.org. Librivox has public domain audiobooks with e-text available. All are human-read. On the Portuguese site, the readers are overwhelmingly Brazilian. Other languages are also available. you'll figure it out. All of the above are downloadable in mp3 format. You can copy and paste text into a word doc and print them to pdf, or leave it in word. Move the whole lot over to a tablet and you have LR at your leisure. Convert the text with Calibre and use it with your integrated Kindle dictionary.

That's not everyone's cup of tea (and not really mine anymore) but the various audio Bible sites have a lot of recordings in Portuguese.

You could also try RhinoSpike, where you can upload your
own text asking native speakers to record it for you. Their website currently has plenty of audio files along with texts in various languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, Greek..and lots more. 1 person has voted this message useful | |
