Questions & Answers about Todos moram aqui.

What does Todos mean?
Todos is the plural of todo, which in this context means “everyone” or “all.” Here it translates as everyone.
Why is the verb moram used instead of mora?
Portuguese verbs agree in person and number with their subjects. Since todos is plural (they), you use the third-person plural form of morar, which is moram. If the subject were singular you’d use mora.
Why don’t we use an article before Todos?
When todos means “everyone” in a general sense, Portuguese drops the article. If you refer to a specific group you include the article, for example Todos os estudantes moram aqui (All the students live here).
Could I say Todo mundo mora aqui instead?
Yes. Todo mundo also means “everyone,” but it’s treated grammatically as singular, so the verb becomes mora (third-person singular).
What kind of word is aqui, and can its position change?
Aqui is an adverb of place (“here”). Its most common position is at the end (Todos moram aqui), but you can also say Aqui todos moram without changing the meaning.
Can I use viver instead of morar here?
While both can mean “to live,” morar is used for where you reside. Viver has a broader sense (“to live life”). So you say Eu moro no Brasil (I live in Brazil), not eu vivo no Brasil (which sounds odd).
What tense and mood is moram?
Moram is the present indicative of morar in the third-person plural (they live). It expresses a current, habitual fact.
Could I say Eles moram aqui instead of Todos moram aqui?
Yes. Eles moram aqui means “They live here.” But Todos moram aqui emphasizes that literally every person in the group lives here.
