Verbs Change by the Person
Verb forms change depending on who or what is the subject of the action. In grammatical terms, this is referred to as "person".
For example, if I am the subject of the verb, the verb takes a "first-person" form. If you are the subject, the verb takes a "second-person" form.
Below are the six different person types along with the Portuguese subject pronouns of those persons.
| First Person | |
|---|---|
| eu | I |
| Second Person | |
| tu | you (singular, informal in Portugal) |
| Third Person | |
| ele | he |
| ela | she |
| você | you (singular, informal in Brazil); you (singular, formal in Portugal) |
| First Person Plural | |
| nós | we |
| Third Person Plural | |
| eles | they (masculine) |
| elas | they (feminine) |
| vocês | you (plural) |
