Let's Make a Gigantic List of Resources in European Portuguese

As we all know, finding Portuguese resources is hard. Click on any video on YouTube and immediately you hear “BOM JEEA!!!” So, to avoid this, I think we should have a database of various things in European Portuguese in everything ranging from cooking, math, music, health, fictional literature, to-… anything! This is going to be forever work-in-progress project. To get started, I have the following categories laid out:

Link Legend

P - own site; YT - youtube; X - twitter; I - Instagram

Lifestyle & Entertainment

Food, travel, pets, true crime, and the like stuff to numb your mind to.

  • Andamente (YT) - travel vlogger that visits interesting places and does challenges.
  • Casus Portucale (YT) - true crime. Videos have captioning.
  • DE MOCHILA ÀS COSTAS (YT) - travel channel
  • Gastropiço (YT) - Gastronomy channel.
  • LETRAS DE UM CRIME (YT) - true crime.
  • Num Se Desgrace (YT) - Talks about art and various oddities in Portuguese culture.
  • Teixeira (YT) - YouTube guy that talks about about living in Portugal and finances.
  • O lado T da vida (YT); (I) - Lifestyle and travel lady.
  • OHVasco! (YT) - true crime, history, and happenings. A lot of stuff, actually.
  • OtakuPT (YT) - Portuguese Youtuber that talks about anime and Japanese culture.

News & Commentary

Self-explanatory. "R" means right wing bias, "L" means left wing bias.

  • Em Cima Do Acontecimento (YT) - database of random tiktoks.
  • Abraço da verdade (YT) - Right wing Portuguese commentator.

PHLEGM

Philosophy, History, Language, Geography, and Music

  • Marco Neves (P); (YT) - Talks about the history of Portuguese and other language related things. His shorts have captioning but not main videos.
  • Ciberdúvidas da Língua Portuguesa (P); (YT1); (YT2) - Not sure if official, but talks a lot about grammar conventions.
  • Mundo dos Poemas (YT) - Portuguese poems without AI voice narration!
  • Fundação Jorge Álvares (P). This is about Macanese literature, but it has short stories with audio in European Portuguese!
  • Buala (P) - A mixmash site of the on-goings in Lusophone Africa. Has stories and random articles. I recommend "Nós Matámos o Cao Tinhoso". Heart wrenching, but worth it!

STEM

Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. Basically, the stuff you'd get beat up for in school for liking

Bumping my own post.

Que boa ideia! Gosto das as telenovelas na OptiSIC. Uma das minhas favoritas é Vingança, que é uma nova versão de O Conde de Monte Cristo. Não tem legendas, e por isso é um desafio, mas quando vê-la, aprende-se a falar de forma coloquial. Por examplo, em português, dizem “Disculpe?” quando dizemos “Excuse me?” em inglês quando alguem diz algo ofensivo ou estranho.
