Great shortie full of great suggestions for a difficult period for all. (Hopefully coming to an end soon. Portugal is looking really good. We are lagging here in the southwest U.S.)
When the dialogue says, “uma toalha grossa ou um cobertor também servem…,” the verb servir is conjugated in the plural form. In English, the rule for subject-verb agreement is to use the noun closer to the verb when you have a compound subject connected by an “or.” (At least in American English – can’t say I know the rule for the Brits). In this case, that would be “um cobertor,” in which case the verb, at least in American English, should be singular. Does European Portuguese have a different rule for compound subjects connected by an “or”?
( I would have written this in Portuguese, but terms like “compound subject” would have been difficult for me.)
Olá, Jay. Thank you!
In Portuguese, the usual standard is to use the plural for verbs that follow compound subjects. There are cases where the singular might fit, but this wouldn’t be one of them, because this “ou” is inclusive, not exclusionary – i.e. both a towel and a blanket would work, it’s not either/or.
