Illustrated Dictionary of Porto Slang

Take a look at this book and come on in. Here, we speak like a tripeiro with pride, and nothing else.

In Porto, people speak with soul, grit, and often with a swear word thrown in. Porto slang is much more than a set of quaint expressions – it's a way of being, of laughing, of provoking, of complimenting, and even of showing affection. It's living heritage, passed down from generation to generation, in taverns, cafes, markets, football stands, and street conversations.

The Illustrated Dictionary of Porto Slang brings together the most emblematic words and expressions of Invicta, accompanied by illustrations that bring them even more to life. If you were born in Porto, you'll recognise words that are part of your history; if you're from outside, you'll discover a universe where "bitaites" or "roscofe" tell stories far beyond their meaning.
