  • “150, que dá para usar na autoestrada..”
    “As Scooter’s, que têm 50, não dão para usar na autoestrada”

    Can someone please explain the use of the verb ‘dar’ in these two contexts?

    Thanks in advance!

    • Olá! We can use the verb “dar” in the sense of something being possible or allowed:
      para tirar fotografias aqui? (Is it possible to take pictures here?)
      – Isto não dá! (This doesn’t work!)
      – …que para usar na autoestrada. (…which can be used on the freeway)
