🇧🇷 The best Brazilian Portuguese dictionaries

Definitions in Portuguese with synonyms, antonyms, example sentences, full conjugation tables and etymology, using Brazilian spelling throughout. Free with no account. Being monolingual it is a step up from a translation dictionary, and worth switching to as soon as you can read a simple definition — looking a word up in Portuguese is itself practice. Ad-supported.

Fast, free and comprehensive, with full conjugation for every verb, etymologies, and an explicit switch between the Portuguese and Brazilian orthographic conventions — which is exactly what you need when the same word is spelled differently on each side of the Atlantic. Definitions are in Portuguese only, so it becomes useful around B1. This is the dictionary most Portuguese speakers actually open.

Published by Melhoramentos, with over 350,000 definitions including regionalisms, colloquialisms and slang, plus Portuguese–English and other bilingual dictionaries alongside the monolingual one. It is the Brazilian counterpart to Priberam and the better choice when a word is Brazil-specific. The web version is free; the site is ad-heavy and the mobile apps are paid.
