Questions & Answers about Nós vamos caminhar juntos na cidade amanhã.
Why do we say Nós vamos caminhar instead of just Vamos caminhar?
Portuguese is a pro-drop language, meaning that subject pronouns (like nós) can be dropped because the verb conjugation already indicates the subject. Including nós can simply place emphasis on "we," or clarify who is doing the action. Both forms (Nós vamos caminhar and Vamos caminhar) are correct, though omitting nós is very common in everyday conversation.
What is the difference between using Nós vamos caminhar and Nós caminharemos?
Both express a future action, but Nós vamos caminhar (the construction "ir + infinitive") is more common in spoken Brazilian Portuguese to talk about the near future. Nós caminharemos uses the simple future tense and sounds a bit more formal or distant from everyday speech, even though it’s perfectly correct.
Why do we use juntos here, and does it ever change form?
Juntos means "together" and it matches gender and number with the people performing the action. If everyone in the group is male or if it’s a mixed group, juntos is used. If everyone in the group is female, then juntas is used. If it’s just one other person of any gender, you could also see junto / junta depending on that person's gender, but that’s less common in this kind of sentence.
