What does “aveludada” mean in Portuguese?

Veludo is velvet; wrap it in a- … -ado and you get aveludado, “velvety.” That frame turns a noun into “having the quality of,” and it is one of the most productive patterns in Portuguese: laranja → alaranjado (“orangey”), amarelo → amarelado (“yellowish”), doce → adocicado (“sweetish”). Learn the frame and you can build the adjective you need instead of hunting for it.

Voz aveludada — a velvety voice — is the standard collocation, used of singers and radio announcers, and it is what one woman keeps demanding in this clip: é com a voz aveludada… senhora? — não, a voz aveludada. The verb aveludar exists but is rare; the adjective does nearly all the work.
