Great episode!
The translation has, “ I have passed on to you the information about all the projects,”
but I would think this is to him, rather than to you. How would I have figured this out?
Obrigada!
Olá! Thank you for your comment. Actually, the translation was incorrect – it does refer to ‘him’. Sorry about that; it’s already fixed 🙂
Bom dia, de Macau. Queria saber como escrever “ @ “ em português, obrigada.
O “@” em Português lê-se “arroba”! Penso que fosse essa a sua pergunta.
Isso, muito obrigada.
Hello, Is “Rōi-te…” the first person singular of the PPS? ie I gnawed you…with envy?
Olá! ‘Rói’ is actually a form of the imperative mood (second-person singular). It’s coupled with the reflexive pronoun ‘-te’ because the listener is supposed to gnaw at herself with envy – to eat her heart out, as one might say in English.
I am a bit confused as I thought second person singular imperative ends in the letter ‘e’ for ‘-ER’ and ‘-IR’ verbs, but this imperative ends in the letter ‘i’. Is it an irregular form?
The imperative doesn’t need to end in E, although that is the usual for those groups of verbs. Some of many exceptions include verbs such as roer (imperative: rói), dizer (imperative: diz), ter (imperative: tem), sorrir (imperative: sorri) or sair (imperative: sai). These are indeed irregular forms.
