How to pronouce vowels in Portuguese?
I am from Malay Language trying to learn Portuguese. It's difficult to find Portuguese speaker here.

I need help with pronunciation. I know how to say 'Por favor'. Is the vowels (a e i o u) in other words sound the same like how we say por favor? Eg. 'o' as in 'orange' and 'a' as in 'are' and so forth. How about in 'Qual seu nome?', the diphthongs sound - ua & eu. Are they pronounced as 1 sound or 2?

If I am clear with the pronunciation, it should be easy to read/speak. Anybody, please help.

Thanks. Vsa

OLÁ, EU SOU DO BRASIL E FALO PORTUGUÊS. A PRONÚNCIA DAS VOGAIS É A PRONÚNCIA NATURAL DA LETRA. SE NÃO ENTENDEU PODE PERGUNTAR NOVAMENTE.
