You know your Portuguese when....

[mattysamps]

#41 You have a giant picture of Jesus hanging somewhere in your home.

[TiffyLautsenq]

Half of this stuff is SO not true

It's all Bullsh**it

[JoaoTheDirector]

Have you been reading from a 1930s school textbook? Because this looks like a caricature of the propaganda in those books.

[curlychikita23]

Its scary how much I relate to this video!! My grandparents are always trying to fill me up and make me fatter after i have already eaten a couple meals .. LOL you guys are goood!

[mjr102395]

how about the one where you got a least 1 uncle who has been aressted for a DUI or for beating up your Tia.

[xnevertheless]

not all of this is true.

[killerof93]

cool 

[acfmk]

seriously??? i am 100% PORTUGUESE and i dont relate a bit to this thing....

[berlin286]

Completly true if you were a child 30 years ago or even more ( like me). Not so true about portuguese in our days but still very very funny.

[SoBrocheMaisNadda]

U forgot to say: Ur dad and uncles worked construction at least once in their lives. lol

[TheMdamaso]

#38 Chourico on a portuguese popchuck (idk how to spell it but the rolls) sandwich for lunch everyday throughout my entire time in elementary school. All the other kids thought it was the funniest looking PB&J ever

[BOSSsolss]

You know your portuguese when - Your mother or grandmother has Maria in her name.Your father or grandfather is called Manuel, José, Antonio, or João. You decorate your walls with plates.Christmas Eve is much more important than Christmas. A wooden spoon equals discipline, or if you ever had to duck so you wouldn't get hit with flying shoes. Going to Portugal involves buying gifts for every person in your 100 member family.If your aunt, grandmother or another woman in your family wears black.

[steelseries999]

hahahahahahha...this video is so funny that made me cry....you big dumb...so mistakes that i can't count...come to portugal or any other place that people talks portuguese to get some information...

[SSpitz16]

31 and 40. They're so f**** true.

If my arm was hurting or if I was tired I always had to ear: "Well you should eat, you're feeling that because you didn't eat"

[azoreanblade2]

#23 & #27 most notable for me. Had family go to Angola and survive there 2+ years of service. At the age of 4 i tried home made wine at a neighbors house and found it sour.

[videomagnet06]

1 3 4 5 6 11 13 17 18 19 20 24 25 26 33 34 35 40 are true for me and i'm only half portuguese

[lcserg87]

[LOVEdot13]

[videomagnet06]

@LOVEdot13 it is. alberto

[LOVEdot13]

@videomagnet06 I know that because my dads name is ablerto my 2 vovos there names are alberto some of my cousions xD yea alot lot of albertos 8*)

[LOVEdot13]

and everything agrees with me too

[Marylinmanson98]

[MissySimpleM]

[ss10baby]

[ryryrj247]

Great video, I can relate to it all. Lighten up GigiBriling!

[rocky038]

i liked this i actually read the whole thing trying to figure out if these things really happened to me growing up and shoot i got all 40 does this really make me a portagee

[Honeysweet6]

@rocky038 i got all of them except one and im portuguese

[PJdreamer]

Portuguese are just the best people in world. period ;)

[Cuntara]

My grandfather got drunk practically everyday during the Angola war because he was scared of the blacks lol.

[PrincessDLOoL]

I'm portuguese and maybe it's true, my family it's not a tipical portuguese family, my dad travels a lot so we are more "free spirits" but in my family most of the things that were in the video happens, with my grandparents of course. It was normal to see in portugal all the kind of things that you said, but in a long time ago, in the time of Salazar, when we didn't knew how was the life in another countries. that's why that kind of behavior it's more usual in old people.

sorry about the errors.

[anna3241]

I DIED LAUGHING! SO TRUE!!

[DerKopfsammler666]

on 7. in Porto (éhh cãompiãouehhh! xD) they actually eat the whole pig...

[solinhoo1616]

I'm portuguese and i live in portugal and numbers: 3,8,14,15,16,18,24,30,34,35,36­,37,39 and 40 aren't true. The rest of it yes. Correction of 39: Going out for a cup of cofee usually means going out for a cup of cofee and alcool ahahaha

[Tupustiina]

Portuguese girls aren't allowed to have a foreign boyfriend? really? How bad that would be xD What about portuguese boys?

[Teriois]

@Tupustiina the guys are encouraged to mingle ahaha, that reminds me of a story with my sister whos older than me. she had a secret boyfriend and my dad found out. so my dad confronted her and they argued about it. then she said well John has a girlfriend ! (<----me) and my dad replied so ? i burst out laughing.

[Tupustiina]

@Teriois Oh how fair is thaaat xD But I guess that shows almost everywhere.. dads trying to "protect" their daughters as long as they can. Maybe even too much though..

[DerKopfsammler666]

@Tupustiina Its a lie... most of the girls here dates either niggers or foreigns... buuuut... the stupid governament we have call them "portuguese" if they just step on portuguese soil... -_-

[Honeysweet6]

@Teriois that is so messed up

[SSpitz16]

@Teriois That doesn't make any sense, if my father or anyone dared to say that to me, things wouldn't end well, ahah

[Honeysweet6]

@Tupustiina yes its true im portuguese i know how that feels like

[SSpitz16]

@Tupustiina ahah I'm a portuguese girl, and I can date who I want.

This is a little last age, more than a half are already from other century, it's exagerating and thinking of it. Exagerate is a portugues thing.

But no, my father or even anyone had to approve who I was and am dating. We are free, there's no rules about it

[GigiDriling]

Ok the funeral thing, yeah I get it, but it's not just black, it's every dark colour. The sanweesha is wrong, since we say "Sandes". The family, yeah it's a very important part of our life and we are very loud! But about the soup, most people hate soup and it's said Sopa de Couves, Covos doesn't exist! There are many surnames ended in consonants like Santos or Rodrigues. You eat salad with your main course! And Tony is not a portuguese name. This is what we do in Portugal, yeah I'm portuguese.

[Teriois]

@GigiDriling well its not fully directed at people born and rasied in portugal thats diffrent. this is more of a point of view of a white washed portuguese rasied with a portuguese family but may or may not have never been to Portugal

[queenbxtchh93]

@GigiDriling Love your comment back on this, you took the words right out of my mouth!

[MissySimpleM]

@GigiDriling Antonio = Tony ... it IS a portuguese name.

[GigiDriling]

@MissySimpleM Actually it is Toni because the "Y" will only be, formally, part of the portuguese alphabet in 2015. But it's not a name it's a short name for António, in Portugal not all names are legal and Toni as a first name is not permited.

[viriato59]

right on!! you hit the nail on the head!! If you are going to make a video about the portuguese culture, get it right!! if you dont have the facts , ask for some advice!! That's all it takes!! I will be more than gald to help!!

[ICONicBoyzLouis]

3 6 7 8 10 13 15 19 20 22 24 25 27 28 29 31 33 37 40 are my numbers



[LGLG69]

I am not Portuguese, but my neighbor is an American of Portuguese descent. Once he said "that house looks like a Portuguese house", and I said to him "Why would you say that?"-- he replied "It's a loud ass, funky color".

[princesshanaka]

I thought 25 and 26 happened to everyone... Oh the joys of being Portugese

[PTphoenixUK]

I found it weird when i Saw the sandwich part for lunch, any portuguese child would be dead by their mothers if they had a sandwich for lunch, at least until 10 years ago. lazy mothers now make sandwiches instead of cooking.

[BieberBaby818]

lol! im half Portuguese and half of these are true! i see most of it in my family xDDD

[Franklord]

Almost none of these apply to me :\

Sorry, but only a selected few(which are the more obvious ones) do apply. The dog one, for example, HAS to be so. A portuguese family's dog MUST understand portuguese, as to follow the "orders". Saying "Sit" in english(to an english family's dog) is the same as a portuguese family(anyone in the family) saying "Senta" to the portuguese family's dog. Some of these are actually more stereotypical. Meh, I give you an A for effort and entertainment. :D

[asneirinhaportugal]

Yea i got hit by a wooden spoon a lot of times

[SuperBe04]

AWESOME

And i defendly agree with the wooden spoon part lol good job :D

[chevypor2geereis]

This is soo true especially the wooden spoon part LMAO

[cmca181997]

[Fifastar277]

[Teriois]

[PURPLEGUMMYPANDA]
