Questions & Answers about Eu arrendo um apartamento no centro.
Why does it say no centro instead of em o centro?
In Portuguese, the preposition em (in/on/at) naturally merges with the word that follows it. When followed by the masculine word for "the" (o), they combine to make no. This follows the exact same pattern as the contractions in this lesson, where em combines with demonstratives (like em + este = neste).
I previously learned the word alugar for "to rent". Why use arrendo here?
Do I have to include eu at the beginning of the sentence?
Does the preposition em (found inside no) always mean "in"?
