The Verb "Ser" (To Be)
In Portuguese, the verb ser is one of the most important verbs. It is used for permanent characteristics and identity. In the present tense, it changes depending on the person:
- eu sou → I am
- tu és → you are (informal)
- você é → you are (formal)
💬 Example: "Eu sou o João." → "I am João."
💬 Example: "Tu és simpático." → "You are nice."
Formal vs Informal Greetings
Portuguese has different greetings depending on the time of day:
- Morning → Bom dia (Good morning)
- Afternoon → Boa tarde (Good afternoon)
- Evening/Night → Boa noite (Good evening / Good night)
Unlike English, "Boa noite" is used BOTH to greet someone in the evening AND to say goodnight when leaving.
For informal situations among friends, you can simply say "Olá" or "Oi" — these work at any time of day!

Veelgemaakte fouten
Eu sou bemEu estou bemUse ESTAR (not ser) for temporary states like feeling well.

Obrigado (said by a woman)ObrigadaWomen say obrigada, men say obrigado — it agrees with the speaker.
Eu sou prazerPrazer em conhecê-loPrazer is a fixed expression, not used with ser.
Boa diaBom diaDia is masculine, so the adjective must be bom (not boa).
