Questions & Answers about Amanhã vens cá e trazes a tua sugestão.
Why does this sentence use vens (from vir) instead of vais (from ir)?
The choice depends on where the speaker is right now. By using vens (you come), the speaker indicates they are currently at the destination and expect the listener to move towards them. If the speaker and listener were both traveling to a different, third location, the speaker would use vais (you go).
Why do we use trazes (from trazer) here rather than levas (from levar)?
Could I say vens aqui instead of vens cá?
You will sometimes hear both, but cá is much more natural here. In European Portuguese, cá is strongly preferred over aqui when combined with verbs of motion (like vir). It loosely translates to "over here," whereas aqui is generally used for static locations meaning "right in this exact spot."
The sentence starts with Amanhã (tomorrow), so why are the verbs vens and in the present tense?
