If you don`t know Portuguese it`s hard to communicate in Brazil cause almost nobody in the street speaks English. So you have to learn at least some basic phrases to survive. At the university everybody speaks English so no problems. FGV pays for you a language course (Portuguese) at three different levels (beginners, intermediate, advanced). But unless you work at home you won`t get the language.

Well, do not worry if you do not speak Portuguese very well at the begining. You will learn it but be prepared that not many people in the street speak English!!
