Duolingo Progress with a Spotlight on Brazilian Portuguese

   I am making progress with Hungarian and Haitian Creole witth a higher accuracy in Brazilian Portuguese,

Can you recognise any words that I learned?

Can you translate any of these words to English or your target language?

I am interested in Brazilian Portuguese because it has such a large number of speakers.  It is similar to Italian and now Spanish that I have been self learning.  But it is further removed form Italian than Spanish in the Romance languages family.

Brazilian Portuguese -	Eu tenho esperado por it.

Part of speech	Translation
	English - I have been waiting for you.

 Reflection: Have been is one word in Brazilian Portuguese "tenho".  "Esperado" makes me think of desperate like waiting desparately.
