Episode 8. Gramática: Gostar, Começar e Acabar

0:00 12:35

In this episode of we cover three essential verbs in European Portuguese: "Gostar", "Começar", and "Acabar". You’ll learn the rules and prepositions that accompany these verbs in various contexts. We’ll also explore the idiomatic expression "a torto e a direito", used to describe chaotic or disorganized situations.

• "Gostar de" is always used with the preposition "de". • "Começar a" indicates the beginning of an action. • "Começar por" is used in a sequence. • "Acabar de" means that something has just happened • "Acabar por" indicates a decision made at the end of a situation.
