"Minhas roupas"

Translation: My clothes

[tetsuo-ka]

I'm confused. In another exercise it said the translation for the clothes is a roupa, so wouldn't it be minha roupa?

[tanisemello]

The clothes = A roupa/As roupas

My clothes = Minha roupa/Minhas roupas

[andregs]

It's confuse because what you say in plural we sometimes say in singular.

For example: "THE CLOTHES that you're wearing..." could be translated both in singular and plural, so:
- AS ROUPAS que você está usando...
- A ROUPA que você está usando...

Both translations are correct and mean the same.

any other words for 'outfit'?

[rosiewlf]

Why would "my outfit" be wrong?

[Xanuyan]

From my understanding of Spanish, "Roupas" can refer to clothes in general, not just the clothes you are wearing or the ones that are arranged into one outfit. However, I think "roupas" can be used that way.

Example: the clothes in your closet are "roupas" but they aren't ALL part of one outfit. But the clothes in one of your outfits are "roupas..

"Meus" -> "Masculine"

"Minhas" -> "Femenine"

Why does the "r" sound like a "h".

[Paulenrique]

That's how it works when the letter "r" is in the beginning of a word.
