Students will learn practical vocabulary drawn from realistic situations, literature, and other cultural texts. Students will develop their cultural awareness of Portuguese-speaking societies and cultures, and focus on the Portuguese-speaking cultures of New England, particularly of Massachusetts, and there will be intentional focus on developing community engagement with those cultures. The course is designed for students with prior knowledge of Portuguese: Portuguese I or equivalent.
