Questions & Answers about Antes do almoço eu trabalho.
Why is it antes do and not just antes?
Why is there a "the" (o) before lunch? English just says "before lunch".
Portuguese uses definite articles (o or a) much more often than English does, including before meals, days of the week, and even people's names. You will almost always say o almoço instead of just almoço when talking about the meal.
