Oh wow you're accent is so good! Comment from : Neez Duts

I'm not fluent in Portuguese (or anything but English) but I'm debating between teaching our little one Portuguese, Spanish (I'd be learning with him), or HindibrbrI think I'll be doing similar things We have a few friends that only speak in Hindi with him I try to do a few min each day in Hindi currently Comment from : Felicia Follum

We are in an Arab country and my kids understand Arabic but they talk English because me and my wife are working and we preferred to put them with Phillipines family whose speak English and what brought me here is I don't know I feel we done a mistake in that So me and the mother decided that she talks with the kids in Arabic and I talk with them in English but still when thier mom talk to them in Arabic they reply in English and what I wanted is when I talk to them in English they reply in English and when we talk to them in Arabic they reply in Arabic I don't know if anyone has similar like my problem and give me an advice Comment from : Mohammed M M Alrawhani

I don't have any kids but I have nieces and nephews My brother is married to an Ecuadorian woman who has tried in vain to teach their children Spanish but they don't want to learn My sister has daughters and I'm teaching them Spanish and French They can understand some words and phrases however I'm leaning towards getting them a tutor Anybody who doesn't teach their child a second language is doing them a bHUGE/b disservice especially here in America where people don't have to learn English when they come here If you want a job here, it's mandatory for the most part to be bilingual (mainly Spanish and English) Comment from : Bloombaby99

I'm so glad I found your channel! I speak English but my husband speak Spanish and and I have now a 3 moth old baby and I want her to learn both languages ❤️ Comment from : Visagoby

You can speak strictly to your children in Portuguese and to your husband in English They will get a lot of exposure to English on a daily basis the more you can speak your language with them the better Comment from : lilikoijuci

May I ask how you got this teddy bear that says the alphabet in Portuguese? Comment from : lilikoijuci

Congratulations , thank you for sharing :) Comment from : Maryam Thorpe

Not just bilingual but multilingual It will help them a lot Comment from : commandoslayer

So we have to just talk with them the other languages but when it comes to Montessori books reading n all we have to follow the native language Isn’t it Comment from : Nighat ismail

I was raised bilingual as i have one parent from the Uk and one from Hungary and this has scared me for years My dad spoke English and so did my mum but I spent my first 8 years in Hungary and so I can speak both but I have no idea how to carry this on (dont have kids yet) Comment from : Cammi

I feel your frustration, I am also the minority language in my household It is difficult to remind oneself to switch the language when you are the only one speaking it Comment from : Martin Peris

I really understand your dilema I am Portuguese in the States and both my children are fluent in Portuguese but their father is also from Portugal Now fast forwarding to grandchildren and the situation is now very complex Both my children married Americans and English is the family’s common language It is a struggle to constantly become aware of the need to jump into Portuguese, which everyone wants the children to learn… not happening easily for sure but we will not give up Thank you for this video, and wishing you success! Muito obrigada e boa sorte! 🙏🏻❤️🇵🇹 Comment from : Isabel Coutinho

Just speak to them in your native language Comment from : Pedro

Thank you for sharing this My native languages are Sundanese and Bahasa Indonesia, and I am planning to teach English as a second language of my kid I am still looking for the right method now Anyway I just know that alphabet in portugese is kind of like bahasa Indonesia (the way you spell A, B, C, D, E, F G, is just the same) Comment from : Xaviera

It's been 3+ years now How is it going teaching your son Portuguese? We went with the OPOL method with our kids (One Parent One Language) Comment from : smaflenna

Amei te encontrar! Eu tenho um filho de um ano e meio e pra mim é difícil ensina-lo o inglês Meu esposo não sabe mto inglês, então eu tenho que falar duas línguas ao mesmo tempo Tem hora que fico doida! Ele arrisca o inglês, mas a gente acaba falando mais em português qdo estamos juntos Qdo estou sozinha com meu filho falo somente em inglês, mas qdo falo com outras pessoas é em português As vzs falo em português com meu filho qdo estou com outras pessoas em volta, mas fixo desconfortável de falar em português com ele É ao mesmo tempo desconfortável de falar em inglês com ele na frente dos outros Tem horas que não sei o que fazer! Ele me chamava de Mommy e agora trocou o Mommy por mamãe Fico triste, não sei o que pensar em relação a isso! Eu morei nos EUA fui babá e amo inglês, é minha paixão!

im nowhere near having kids but when ill adopt one, i want them to speak slovak and english Comment from : Rainbow Wolf • 67 years ago

Bath time is a very good tip! Comment from : lelde liepina

I am in the same situation as you Canadian husband who doesn’t speak Spanish and I’m here on my own My son knows a few words but speaking the language to them when they are older and don’t have interest in learning it is really hard I will try to schedule time to speak Spanish as you suggested 15mins a day should make a difference My son is 7 and we both love baking so maybe that can be our thing Comment from : Karla Cruz Ruelas

First half of the video is a waste of time, but some interesting tips if you can last to the end Comment from : Murray D

I don’t have kids yet but I know that when I do, I want them to be bilingual because my mother only speaks Spanish, so obviously I’m going to want them to be able to speak to her in her mother tongue Nice video! Comment from : Karaoke Kid

Porque haverias de ensinar-lhes brasileiro? Comment from : Afonso Ferreira

I can relate It's really hard when you're immersed in another language I'm living the same experience as you, with English and Portuguese, in Canada The reason I didn't introduce it earlier, was because my daughter needed speech therapy and, at the time, switching languages didn't work and wasn't helping her speech But now I've started to introduce Portuguese more often, and it's not easy But consistency is key Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us Tudo de bom para vocêsObrigada 👍🏼❤ Comment from : iris carvalho

Please do a update video pleaseee Comment from : Reena Dhadwal

I live in a country where being bilingual is the minimum standard to survive in most places, so introducing a language to my toddler cousin isn't very challenging I'm the only one who speaks the language I am currently teaching my cousin so it can set my goal back a bit, but the good thing is it can be mixed in with three other languages that are commonly being used in my family My toddler cousin already understands a fair bit of the other langues, but is quick to catch on the new one I'm teaching her Comment from : JD B

Holy crap! She's actually not English? Damn, her English accent is 100! 🔥🔥🔥 Comment from : JD B

You are so beautiful! Comment from : kalumarjuna80

Did your husband learn Portuguese already? That would be really helpful your you and your kid Comment from : Edgbarra

We speak three languages my wife and I Arabic, Swedish and English we are thinking of speaking Arabic and English at home with our daughter and when it comes to Swedish she should be able to learn it from the day care and school later on :) I am not sure if it is the best strategy actually but this is why I am here :) Comment from : Aswad

Very good tips!!! Im in the same boat dad dont speak Portuguese, so its tough to do it while he is home but i do the same ur doing rite now with my 1 year old i hope her speech is not delayed because of that but as some people added have them watch cartoons in portuguese too ! Comment from : DienifferC89

I am so happy to see your video on YouTube I am not alone I am a Chinese mom live in Paris Same situation like you Thanks a lot for your tips Comment from : Lu Ping

Oi tudo bem? Seu channel e muito legal! Você conhece as musicas do "Bita"? As musicas dele são muitas legais e meu filho ama e assiste bastante Sou americana morando aqui no Brasil e falo com meu filho só em inglês, e meu marido fala em português com ele Meu marido fala muito bem inglês e eu falo portuguese tbm então na nossa casa a gente troca linguás bastante pra deixar o nosso filho ouvir as duas Mas quando e só eu e meu filho e só inglês! Seria muito bom pra você falar com seus filhos quando e só você e eles em casa! Ai depois quando seu marido chegar, você pode trocar pra inglês Não vai ser confundido pra eles Crianças tem um jeito muito fácil de aprender uma outra linguá Best of luck to you!!! Comment from : Jesiel Madruga

I live in the Åland islands which is a Swedish speaking part of Finland I am from the US so have no family here We have twins I very rarely speak swedish to the twins even when their friends are visiting Some of their friends even learned to understand English because they were at our house so often You will have someone to speak with as your son gets older brbr One funny thing is that when they are speaking to their dad, who is a native, and I answer the question they have asked him, they will turn to me and say, "We asked dad not you If we wanted the answer from you we would have asked in English" The twins only speak English to me brbrIn my free time I try to create places where I can speak English I write kids songs which I sung earlier earlier with the twins Now days I spend my free time trying to teach Swedish speaking kids ages 3-7 English though songs Look me up and enjoy the video "Billy wants a horse to ride" wwwcanarysongsgr8se/en Comment from : LaDena Laine

Thank you! I can relate to an extent I've subscribed! Comment from : juliene fray

I'm Norwegian lilving in the UK, with a UK husband Sadly I stopped speaking Norwegian to my kids when they hit about age 2-3 (especially my daughter) because of the problems it caused us at home (my husband not understanding caused him to feel left out) and I am now desperate to try and start again They know many words, and do understand more than they let on - but like you I have no family here, no friends, and hardly ever speak it I do have an older child who is fluant in both - but speaks English to his siblings haha brbrI just feel stuck trying to get this started properly as they are already 8 and 6 They find it a bit boring when I am trying :/ Comment from : Inniebin

I like it Comment from : Kesha Clark

Great videoI use the Unuhi bilingual book app with my little ones It’s great for reading short stories and flashcards in any 2 language combinations side by side Comment from : bmarkyt132

I am in the same situation and have to remind myself every day to use my native language (afrikaans) I do forget sometimes as English is my go-to language brMy husband is very supportive and reminds me throughout the day to speak to my boy in Afrikaans We have some books in Afrikaans and found some cartoons that he used to like I would also like to speak more than I do So now searching for new tips brThank you for the video and I like the tip about bath time Comment from : W Wds

At what age your kids start to speak any of the languages? Im little vit worry vuz my son is 2 and 2 months and he says 5 words in spanish and he he answer affirmative with a yeah! in english We speak spanish all the time in home and english out side 🐙🐙 Comment from : Suki Diaz

That was not helpful at all Comment from : Hind Omar

Hi ysis I know this video is very old but I’d love to see an update on this I am in the exact same situation at the moment I find it really difficult to talk to my baby in Spanish even when we’re alone cos I naturally think in English and everything that I know about being a mum or baby related I’ve learnt in English Xx Comment from : Jackeline Cartwright

My boy Eric, his mother speaks Vietnamese and little Thai I'm Thai and worry about my 3 month old boy will have difficulty learning Thai language since we're living in Thailand My wife doesn't understand English and since I grew up in the US so I'd rather speak to my kid in English/Thai Made this video to keep track with Eric youtube/QrwEl3J1iBY My wife has taken Eric to her homeland for a month of TET (Chinese's New Year Festival) Comment from : The Taboocast

É um sonho que meus filhos tenham acesso à duas línguas desde bebês ♡ Comment from : Julia Motta

My mom is Brazilian and my father is American I was born here in the US My mom found it hard to remember to speak Portuguese with my brother and I I'm 27 now and I speak Portuguese at around a 3 year old level lol I wish she spoke Portuguese with us! I have a 1 year old and I'm trying to learn so I he can be bilingual Whenever my mom visits I'm constantly reminding her to speak Portuguese with him Comment from : Teacher Erika Jane

You could easily talk to him in Portuguese, only I know it might be hard to remember to talk to him in Portuguese all the time, but video calls with your family and at least talking to him all the time you're alone with him or even making him feel smarter asking him to translate what his dad is saying or something like that There's a channel called As Matutas, they're from Recife There are really good videos of Rosa saying how she made her teaching process work with her daughter Some games and stuff helped her Congrats to you for what you've been doing to your kids, keep going Tente despertar mais essa funçãozinha de falar português com eles e é isso I came here because I'm going to have a nephew soon and I want him to be bilingual sooooooo baaaaaaaad, o problema é que não moramos na mesma casa b*Cries*/b Comment from : Junior Araujo

My mom's language isn't very common, but we have a lot of family here in the US that speaks it Growing up she did speak to us in her language and i can understand most of what she says, but I never learned to speak She told me as a kid I could never say things properly and she got frustrated and gave up XD and I remember as a kid I avoided speaking it and just answered everything in english Comment from : Shiki

Como muitas pessoas falaram, a forma mais eficiente de tornar uma criança bilíngue é conversar com ela sem utilizar de tradução Apenas uma conversa natural! Crianças são como folhas em branco Pode introduzir 10 línguas quando nascem que elas vão aprender a falar as 10, sem nenhum comprometimento Pelo contrário! Podia ter aproveitado a oportunidade de conversar com elas em português desde o berço! O inglês viria naturalmente, pois está em todos os lugares brÓtimo canal! Boa sorte com tudo! Comment from : Úrsula Martins

This was a very helpful video Thank you:-) Comment from : Dragana Paris

E esse sotaque de indiana? 😁 Comment from : Renata Appel

Your videos are more understandable than many native speakers!I love the way you are saying:XD Comment from : Patrick Lo

I am a Chinese student and fluent in English Is it hard for me to immigrate to British now? Comment from : Patrick Lo

This is me with Arabic Ive been trying so hard But my kids want to learn from other kids not from me 😭💔 Comment from : Soumaya Sammie

I'm not fond of 3 minute intros But at least it wasn't an annoying 3 minute intro like most people on this dreaded platform Comment from : meep meep

I was so stunned to hear the Portuguese ABC song Sounds so much alike my native language Comment from : Mentari Antika

Oi Sou BRASILEIRA Comment from : Vitória Rodrigues

I know exactly what you mean! I live in the UK but I am from Norway And when my 2 youngest kids were small we spoke Norwegian at home until they were about 3 (they are now 5 and 7) but sadly because of no Norwegian here - and my husband not speaking the language - it stoppedand now I'm trying to teach them again My oldest is bilingual as he's born and raised in Norway (he's 13) but he's sadly not much help for me hahaha as he prefers to speak English!! :p brbrI am trying to find bilingual books (since they can both read) and at dinner, I try to point out things and what they are called I have tried to put on Norwegian cartoons etc - but that's not very popular :( brbrAnd I recognize the "my husband doesn't speak" because we have the same problem, which was one of the reasons why I stopped -because he would feel left outthough I feel that after almost 10 years he really should have learned it by now - at least so much that he could follow a conversation Comment from : Inniebin

Currently expecting my first child in October, and me and my boyfriend are both bilingual I'm from Mexico and his mother is from London and his father is German Having family around seems to really make things easier, as my mom and dad speak more Spanish than English, so I know I can count on them to help me That way even if I don't speak too much Spanish around him, he will pick it up from his grandparents Comment from : Taisha Ramirez

My kids are bilingual I never put that much thought into it I just speak to them in my native language,and their father is his (I'm fluent in his monther tongue, he doesn't speak or understand mine, at all) Works just fine if you do it from birth and they're used to it Comment from : Stéphanie 옥희

As a native Russian speaker married to a Mexican living in US and I understand your struggle! I find myself thinking in English and it even seems at times like I'm forgetting Russian words It sounds like you're making a tremendous effort to teach your children and it's wonderful! I'm going to try to adopt your in-bathtub teaching technique Comment from : Olga Aleman

my friend understands German because his grandparents only spoke to him in German everytime they say him he always thought it was super annoying, but he appreciates at least being able to understand i think the more you can speak to him, or even have your family speak to him when they call to speak to you, the better if you can find popular kids cartoons in your language, or music that would be good too Comment from : tinkthestrange

I am Greek living in the UK and I was exactly in the same situation as you No family here and had a daughter with an English man It was very hard for me too I think its crucial to have the support of your partner, he has to know your language otherwise it will be very hard to practice because he won't know what you are saying and its limiting to do it only when he is not there Me I have been talking Greek to my daughter non stop from the day she was born regardless if we are alone or not but my partner has put her off replying to me in Greek when she was keen and that stopped her in her tracks So today she is 15 she understands everything I say but her own capability of replying in Greek  is very limited I tried to teach her how to write or read as well and she has some capability of doing that but again very limitedIts crucial to have the partner really on board, extremely supportive be part of it not an observer otherwise you are very limited People unfortunately don't realise the implications of having kids with a foreigner in their own country they take it lightly don't think it through Comment from : Nancy

Estou tentando o mesmo aqui, porém imagine minha dificuldade em raise bilingual daughter here in Brasil Quase o mesmo que vc aí Comment from : Mamãe Amore

Great job! I think you've started well Don't give up, that's the hardest part I started bilingual with my son who is now 8 years old I don't have much contact in my native language, Spanish My son has started Spanish school and that has re-sparked our interest My youngest too sees her brother and gets involved You go through ups and downs Keep it up Make times like you are where mummy only speaks Portuguese And cross your fingers it will pay off! Good work! Thank you Comment from : Brenda Dubon

youtube/Bp2Fvkt-TRM Comment from : Patrícia Barbosa

Ve o canal da Rosa Filipovic, ela mora na Alemanha O esposo dela é Alemão e eles tem uma filha chamada Sophia Ela faz videos ensinando a Sophia a falar Portugues Aproveitando o comentário, estou fazendo intercambio, eu falo ingles relativamente bem mas estou vendo seus videos sobre o sotaque, porque eu não diria de forma alguma que você é brasileira Está de parabéns pelo esforço, poucas pessoas realmente adquirem fluencia em uma lingua estrangeira!!! Comment from : Samantha Siqueira

You look Indian and yes get them speaking Brazilian Portuguese Comment from : kingashpokemon

Thank you! I'm glad I'm not alone! I am German but like you, noone around me speaks it so I simply forget! I need to up my game and speak to my son in German I love the bath time and music idea Will be trying that 🖒🖒 Comment from : Life on a Seesaw

I know a family friend where the mom ONLY communicates to her child in French, ever since he was a baby He is now a toddler and fluent in both so far She is very diligent in this method so she does not fall out of it, as she is determined to raise a bilingual child :) Comment from : dnabl

I am so happy about this video♡ Comment from : Habibe Hoti

oi Ysis Eu cresci bilingue (portugues e espanhol) e um conselho que te dou e que minha Mae fez, foi falar em Portugues comigo quando estávamos só entre nós Uma forma facil é conversar com eles em portugues quando o Matthew não estiver por perto É o que vc falou, ser bilingue é uma das melhores coisas que vc pode dar a eles, no futuro vc verá Muita gente na tua situaçao substitui umalingua poroutra mas nao se dão conta do erro que cometem ao fazer isso Beijos Comment from : Livia Aquelina
