At the Bank

Formal Requests with the Conditional

When dealing with bank staff, use the condicional for polite requests:

Gostaria de abrir uma conta. (I would like to open an account.)
Poderia explicar-me as condições? (Could you explain the conditions to me?)

Direct and Indirect Object Pronouns

Banking transactions often require combining pronouns:

Pode enviá-lo para esta conta? (Can you send it to this account?)
O funcionário explicou-me as taxas. (The clerk explained the fees to me.)

Key Verb: "Levantar" vs "Depositar"

Levantar dinheiro = to withdraw money
Depositar dinheiro = to deposit money
Quero levantar 50 euros. (I want to withdraw 50 euros.)

Tip: In Portugal, "multibanco" refers to both the ATM network and the machines themselves. You can say "Vou ao multibanco" (I'm going to the ATM).

वाक्यांश

Queria abrir uma contaI would like to open an account
Qual é o saldo da minha conta?What is my account balance?
Preciso de fazer uma transferênciaI need to make a transfer
O multibanco engoliu o meu cartãoThe ATM swallowed my card
Posso pedir um empréstimo?Can I apply for a loan?

आम गलतियाँ

~~Eu quero abrir um conta~~
Eu quero abrir uma conta
'Conta' is feminine, so use 'uma' not 'um'
~~Preciso fazer uma transferência~~
Preciso de fazer uma transferência
'Precisar' requires the preposition 'de' before the infinitive
~~Posso levantar dinheiro no banco?~~
Posso levantar dinheiro no multibanco?
'Banco' is the bank institution; 'multibanco' is the ATM
~~Qual é a saldo?~~
Qual é o saldo?
'Saldo' is masculine, so use 'o' not 'a'
~~Queria pagar o empréstimo~~
Queria pagar a prestação
You pay 'a prestação' (instalment), not 'o empréstimo' (the loan itself)
