Questions & Answers about Eu como o pequeno-almoço em casa.
How do I conjugate the verb comer to get como?
Why do we need the word o before pequeno-almoço?
In Portuguese, you generally use definite articles (words for 'the', like o or a) before the names of meals. While in English we say 'I eat breakfast', in Portuguese you literally say 'I eat the breakfast'.
What does pequeno-almoço literally translate to?
Why does the sentence use em casa instead of na casa?
Em casa is a fixed phrase that means 'at home'. You just use the preposition em (in/at) without an article. If you said na casa (a combination of em + a), it would mean 'in the house', and you would usually need to specify whose house.
