How to Say ‘You improvise’ in Portuguese
Improvisas
eem-proh-VEE-zash
[eem-proh-VEE-zash]
💬 Usage Tip: The [-as] ending in [improvisas] shows [you] for informal [tu]. You can reuse that pattern with lots of verbs: [falas], [brincas], [continuas].
🇵🇹 In Portugal: This is a [tu] form, so it fits flirting or casual bar talk with someone you're already being informal with. In Portugal, that's normal in this setting, but with a much older stranger it can still feel a bit forward.
