Questions, answered
Brazilian or European Portuguese?
You can practise either. Mira adapts to the variety you want and focuses on the everyday phrases you will actually use.
Do I need to know any Portuguese already?
No, you can start as a complete beginner. Mira speaks slowly, keeps things simple, and can help in English when you are stuck, then raises the difficulty as you improve.
How is this different from a language app?
Apps build vocabulary but rarely make you speak in real time. Indilingo Voice is a live phone conversation, so you practise understanding and speaking Portuguese together, which is what real conversations demand.
