Thanks for your interest.  i don't speak or understand Portuguese, so
improvements can only be made with assistance from Portuguese speakers.

Listen carefully, and try to identify what sounds wrong.

Is the problem:

1.  Some phonemes (vowel or consonant sounds) are wrong for Portuguese?

2.  Errors in the spelling-to-phoneme rules for some words?

3.  Something else?
