Portuguese DictionaryLearning Portuguese goes a lot easier when you have an excellent Portuguese dictionary at hand. I prefer to have a few different Portugese dictionaries, depending where I am and what I do:
Berlitz Portuguese Pocket Dictionary: Portuguese - English/ English - Portuguese
The Berlitz Portuguese Pocket Dictionary contains over 30,000 entries and features blue headwords that make it easy to navigate. It also includes some grammar information to extend the user's knowledge of the language. It is useful for travellers, students and business people who need quick access to the core words of the Portuguese language. This Portuguese Travel Dictionary has helped me out many times!
Larousse Concise Dictionary: Portuguese-English / English-PortugueseThis is my favourite desktop dictionary, here I find virtually everything that is needed to get by in every day communications. Especially helpful are the attached Portuguese model letters and faxes: The Larousse Concise Dictionary: Portuguese-English /
English-Portuguese is more in-depth than the Larousse
pocket and mini dictionaries. This Portuguese dictionary is
packed with features:
Brazilian Portuguese-English Dictionary and Phrasebook
This Brazilian Portuguese phrasebook has a lot of excellent information. It has a pretty extensive dictionary, the list with important phrases and the key verb conjugations are very helpful. It's easy to use and the author, Omar de Almeida Santos is a physician, translator, and teacher born in São Paulo, explains everything clearly. If you want to learn Brazilian portuguese then this book is an excellent supplement to other learning materials.

What customers say about the Pimsleur PORTUGUESE audios:
Great beginning
language course for those long commutes
The
Pimsleur series is very different from the other language CDs I
have tried. It uses repetitive short conversations and
sentences to intuitively learn grammar and structure without
formally "thinking" about the grammar and structure. This
approach is slow, but very effective. Each lesson is 30 minutes
in length and gradually adds to the previous lesson. Other
language CDs often just have you mimic and repeat different
words or sentences over and over, which gets old fast. Pimsleur
has you repeat the words a few times, but then asks you to
recall them on your own, and puts them in context using short
conversations where you ask and answer questions with an
imaginary Brazilian woman sitting next to you (presumably at a
bar). The Conversational series are just an introduction to
PImsleur Level I courses, so you won't know much by the end of
them, and will need to buy the full set. --

I love the method that Pimsleur employs to make a new language stick to the grey matter between my ears. The CD says the words in English and then in Portuguese, with careful pronounciation. There are nice, long pauses to repeat the words aloud. As the lessons progress, the prompts vary from just a translation to things like "Say 'good morning, miss'". It teaches a few phrases, then adds a few more, then goes back to prompt you to recall what you learned a lesson ago and combines it with the new phrases. I hope to visit Portugal someday, and Pimsleur will help me function as a tourist! -- Wendy Black,Santa Rosa, CA, USA
