Now let’s learn some words about internal organs. These words can be really important if you’re feeling sick and you need to report how you’re feeling to a doctor.

Intimate parts

And lastly the intimate parts of the Human Body:

What if you need to go to a doctor?

Well, in that case, you need to know the verb "doer"/ to hurt and the verb "sentir"/ to feel.

If you want to say something is hurting:

Dói-me a cabeça! - My head is hurting!

Dói-me a barriga! - My belly is aching!

Tenho dores nas costas! - I have a pain in my back!

Sinto-me mal! - I don't feel well!

Sinto-me doente!/ Eu estou doente! - I feel sick!/ I am sick!
