At the half hour, say 'meia' (short for meia hora) instead of trinta. 'Duas e meia' is 2:30, 'meio-dia e meia' is 12:30. Here meia means half, not the number six.

In Portuguese you like OF something. 'Gostar' always needs 'de': 'gosto de café', 'gosto de você', 'gosto de viajar'. Drop the 'de' and it sounds broken.
