Qual é a diferença entre garoto/garota, rapaz/rapariga, menino/menina and moço/moça?
I stumbled upon several words for boys and girls and would like to know the difference between them.
o garoto, a garota (Brazilian?)
o rapaz, a rapariga (European portuguese?)
o menino, a menina
o moço, a moça
Muito obrigada.

O garoto / A garota - generally used for teenagers, young boys and girls.
O rapaz is used in Brazil though Rapariga is not. As others mentioned, it is offensive.
O menino / A menina - generally used for children
O moço / A moça - generally used for young adults
But there are always exceptions. For instance, if I am walking the streets and I see a man and I would like to know an information, I'd say " Ei, moço... quantas horas por favor,? " even if he is 40 years old.
Or I could say " Estou saindo com uma menina aí " which means I'm dating a young lady, not necessarily a child.
Hope it helps!

I'm learning Portuguese. But I am only intermediate. All I know is in Portugal you can call young girls 'rapariga' but my Brazilian teacher says it equals 'prostitute' in Brazil. So I know I have to be careful with that word!

Eu sou do Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.
Garoto/garota
Menino/menina
Têm o mesmo significado, normalmente mais usado pra falar sobre crianças e adolecentes.
Moço/moça
É usado pra jovens adultos ou adultos.
Curiosidade:quando uma menina está crescendo e menstrua pela primeira vez, falam que eIa "virou mocinha". Ou quando os pais querem dizer que ela já é crescida pra fazer algo ou ter certas atitudes falam que ela "já é mocinha".
Rapaz/rapariga
Aqui usamos rapaz pra falar de um jovem adulto.
Também no mesmo caso dos meninos, quando querem dizer que ele já é crescido falam que "ele já é um rapazinho" ou uma tia que não vê a um tempo também pode falar "nossa, já está um rapaz".
E rapariga não é usado no Rio, em alguns lugares do nordeste brasileiro é falado, mas acho que é de uma forma negativa.

in Portuguese of Portugal all these expressions are used to young people though:
o garoto, a garota - least used in Portugal but is mostly used for teenagers
o rapaz, a rapariga - more used than the previous one is used for teenagers and children alike
o menino, a menina - is used more in children
o moço, a moça - is used for young adults although it's used less than in Brazil
