Sample questions from the brazilian portuguese test
Real items from the test bank — one per level band. The full test adapts from A1 to C1.
Minha irmã e eu ___ em Recife.
- 1moro
- 2mora
- 3moram
- 4moramos
Show answer
Correct: moramos
"Minha irmã e eu" is a "nós" subject, so the -AR verb takes the first-person-plural ending: "moramos". "Moro" is the eu form, "mora" the você/ele/ela form, and "moram" the vocês/eles form.
Quando eu era criança, ___ todos os dias neste parque.
- 1brinquei
- 2brincava
- 3brincarei
- 4brinco
Show answer
Correct: brincava
"Todos os dias" in the past frames a repeated habit, which Portuguese narrates with the imperfect "brincava". The pretérito perfeito "brinquei" marks a single completed event, not a recurring habit.
Assim que o relatório ___ pronto, eu te aviso.
- 1está
- 2esteja
- 3estiver
- 4estava
Show answer
Correct: estiver
"Assim que" referring to a future event takes the future subjunctive in Portuguese: "assim que estiver pronto". Note too the Brazilian proclisis "eu te aviso". "Está"/"estava" are indicative and "esteja" is the present subjunctive, neither of which fits this future-time clause.

Methodology
This is the same placement engine used inside the Lenguia study-plan product. It combines 35 multiple-choice grammar, reading and vocabulary questions with listening items on real recorded audio, 10 short writing prompts and 5 speaking prompts, ordered from A1 to C1.
Scoring uses a pass-threshold model: each CEFR level is "passed" when you earn roughly two-thirds of its available points, and your result is the highest level you pass consecutively starting from A1. This rewards consistent competence rather than lucky guesses. Results range from A1 to C1 (the test does not grade C2).
The items are informed by the competency descriptors of the Council of Europe CEFR framework. This is a free self-assessment: results are a reliable orientation, not a certified proficiency measurement.
The competency descriptors follow the Council of Europe CEFR framework.

Frequently asked questions
How accurate is this Brazilian Portuguese cefr level test?
It uses the same item bank and pass-threshold scoring as the placement engine inside Lenguia's study-plan product, so the CEFR estimate is consistent and repeatable. Like any online self-assessment it is an orientation, not an official certificate.
Is it really free? Do I need an account?
Yes — the full test, the result and the shareable certificate are free, with no signup. If you create an account afterwards, your result can be used to build a personalized study plan.
What levels can I get?
A1, A2, B1, B2 or C1. A level counts as reached when you earn roughly two-thirds of its points and have passed every level below it. C2 is not graded.
Can I retake the test?
Yes, as often as you like. Questions within each level are shuffled, and your latest result replaces the previous one on this device.
Do I need a microphone?
Only for the short speaking section — you can skip those questions and still get a full result for the other skills.
