Hello, I have a question about how to say "thank you very much" if you are a girl. Would you say "muito obrigada" or "muita obrigada"? Or does it depend on what you are saying thank you for?

Obrigada!

 

fabregas04,

He would say "muito obrigado" and she would say "muito obrigada". Anybody never says "muita obrigada".

DJL

 

It's an easy question...

Variable:
Many= muitos, muitas
A lot= muito, muita

Invariable:
Very= ONLY muito
Much = ONLY muito

 

That's it!!!

DJL

 

Or, to make it even clearer, ADVERBS have no declensions. In that case, muito is an intensifying adverb.

 

i.e. muito agua??

 

Jamais. Que associação você fez?

 

Thanks for all your help! Muito obrigada!

 

An interesting thing about this word is that it's pronounced nasally but you can't see any sign of it!

Muito /m-um-im-tu/

The letter "m" here represents the nasality of the vowels just like in "um" =one; ''impacto" =impact. The "m" here in Portuguese is NOT pronounced at all!

 

I thought that "invariable" :" uncountable" ... What did you mean with "invariable" ?, "much" is used with uncountable nouns dont they, like "agua"?

I guess it should be "muita agua: much water" né? but you said "Much = ONLY muito"...

 

Muito obrigadinho

 

what about:

1) Agua, eu bebo muito.

2) Agua, eu bebo muita.

Is one of these incorrect?

What about,

3) O que eu bebia muito era agua.

4) O que eu bebia muita era agua.

Thanks!

 

Muda só com nome, como implica Macunaíma?

 

I was looking online for words to say this and ran into your threads here on Brazilian Portuguese. Muito obrigada; it was just what I was looking for! Suzy

If you change the words placement it is also correct to say:

"O que eu bebia era muita água."

Normally a comma is placed while writing to separate concerns:

"O que eu bebia, era muita água."

This is also a good way for expressing a situation:

"O que eu bebia, era muita água!"

 

Muito obrigada but
Toda obrigada
