Relativamente à conceitos

You usually place this at the start of a sentence. It sets the stage for what follows. Note a small grammar detail: because conceitos is masculine, you should technically use a or aos instead of à (which is feminine). Using it correctly shows you have a high command of the language. It makes your arguments sound structured and logical.

Use it in a job interview to sound professional. It is perfect for academic essays or formal reports. If you are in a business meeting, this phrase is your best friend. It helps you sound authoritative and clear. You can also use it when debating a complex topic with colleagues.

Do not use this with your best friend at a bar. If you are ordering a 'francesinha', avoid this phrase entirely. It sounds way too stiff for casual hangouts. Using it while texting your mom might make her think you are writing a thesis. Stick to simpler words like sobre (about) for daily life.

Portuguese culture often values formal education and hierarchy in professional settings. Using 'fancy' connectors like this shows you are well-educated. It is a sign of respect for the intellectual nature of a discussion. In Portugal, formal register is a distinct social marker in the workplace.

You might hear No que diz respeito a or Quanto a. Another common one is Em relação a. All of these serve the same purpose of introducing a topic. Some people also use Relativamente aos conceitos to be more specific about which concepts they mean.
