    Is my accent closer to Brazilian or European Portuguese?

    It's quite good, but it's Brazilian Portuguese.

    Would be curious to heard you speaking European Portuguese.....

    I get my Portuguese from Brazilian music, so that's the accent I am most familiar with.
    Do you have some nice Portuguese songs with lyrics? So I can see the difference.

    Your accent is closer to Brazilian Portuguese. And I understood everything you said. Your Portuguese is pretty good, I must say.

    Spoiler!

    Your accent and pronunciation is really good actually but it is Brazilian Portuguese

    Maybe you like this song and consider trying European Portuguese:




    European Portuguese is probably a lot harder for foreigners, specially the pronunciation.

    I advise you to learn European Portuguese, Brazilian one has some consonant sound shifts, for example:

    "Bom dia" sounds like "Bom gia"
    "Boa noite" sounds like "Boa noichi"

    E sounds like I, and T at the end become tch.

    I have no idea where this come from.
    It's just an advise, I think it would be easier for you
