Ortografia - Empregos de S e Z [Prof Noslen]

Summary

This lesson focuses on teaching the correct use of 's' and 'z' in Portuguese spelling, with practical examples and easy-to-follow rules. It covers the use of 's' in words related to nationality, the formation of feminine words with the suffix '-iza,' and how 's' between vowels can sound like 'z.' Additionally, the lesson explores abstract nouns formed from adjectives, derivational rules for verbs, and specific cases like words with diphthongs. The speaker emphasizes the importance of reading for better spelling and provides clear, relatable explanations to help students understand and apply these rules.

Takeaways

• 😀 Words relating to nationality or origin use 'S', such as 'francês' (French) or 'holandês' (Dutch).
• 😀 When creating feminine forms from masculine nouns with the suffix '-iza', 'S' is used (e.g., 'profetiza' from 'profeta').
• 😀 The letter 'S' can sound like 'Z' when it appears between two vowels, such as in 'profetiza' and 'sacerdotisa'.
• 😀 To form abstract nouns from adjectives, use 'Z'. Examples include 'rapidez' (from 'rápido') and 'beleza' (from 'belo').
• 😀 Derivative verbs from nouns ending with 'S' retain 'S' (e.g., 'avisar' from 'aviso').
• 😀 If the base word does not end with 'S', the derived verb uses 'Z' (e.g., 'canalizar' from 'canal').
• 😀 For words with diphthongs, 'S' is used (e.g., 'faizão', 'maizena').
• 😀 The verbs 'querer' (to want) and 'pôr' (to put) always use 'S' in all forms (e.g., 'quis' and 'pus').
• 😀 When forming verbs from words ending in 'S', the spelling of the verb follows the base word's pattern (e.g., 'improvisar' from 'improviso').
• 😀 When adding the suffix '-izar' to words without an 'S' at the end, 'Z' is used (e.g., 'setorizar' from 'setor').
