🧠 How to practice the gerund form in Portuguese? Easy: use a picture! Pick any photo with people or actions, and describe what’s happening using verbs in the gerund (the -ing form in English). 💡 In Portuguese, we form the gerund with: 👉 estar + verb in -ndo Example – imagine a photo of a group of friends at a bar: đŸ» Ela estĂĄ bebendo um drink . = She is drinking cocktail. 😂 Ele estĂĄ rindo alto. = He is laughing loudly. đŸ“± A moça estĂĄ mexendo no celular. = The girl is checking her phone. đŸȘ‘ Eles estĂŁo conversando. = They are chatting. đŸ“ș EstĂĄ passando um jogo na TV. = A game is playing on the TV. 🔁 Now it’s your turn! Choose a photo from your camera roll and describe what people are doing using estar + gerĂșndio. 🎯 It's a great way to think in Portuguese and get more comfortable with everyday structures! #LearnPortuguese #PortugueseForBeginners #Gerund #PortugueseGrammar #PortugueseTips #PracticePortuguese
