Portuguese Specific Features | Migaku Browser Extension
Migaku's Chrome extension has some settings that are specifically designed to support people learning Portuguese. You may adjust Migaku's language-specific settings by clicking on the Migaku icon located to the right of the URL bar. In particular, all Portuguese nouns have one of two grammatical genders: feminine (pink) or masculine (blue). It is important to know a noun's gender to speak Portuguese well, as they affect the articles and adjectives attached to them. We currently offer three display options for noun gender: 1. Display no gender coloring, if you're already an advanced learner 2. Display gender coloring when hovering over a word, so you can quiz yourself 3. Always display gender coloring, if you're a beginner and need extra support This simple change is very powerful: if the word "jardim" is blue every time you see it, it'll eventually "feel" blue (and thus masculine) to you. Whereas most learners have to memorize each noun's gender, Migaku enable you to acquire it naturally. Note that these settings will only display if your target language is set to Portuguese.
