Questions & Answers about Eles vão apresentar o projeto no próximo mês.
How do we form the near future in vão apresentar?
Can I drop the word Eles and just start the sentence with Vão?
Yes! In Portuguese, the verb ending usually tells you who is doing the action. Since vão is specifically the 'they' (or 'you all') form, starting with Vão apresentar is perfectly natural and very common.
Why is it no instead of em before próximo mês?
When talking about time like 'next month', Portuguese usually includes the word for 'the'. The preposition em (in/on) merges with the masculine article o (the) to create the contraction no. So, it literally translates to 'in the next month'.
Why does the adjective próximo come before the noun mês?
While most adjectives in Portuguese come after the noun, próximo (next) is a common exception. When used with time expressions, it usually comes right before the noun, just like in English.
