    Why not "Eu como uma maçã e ela come pão." if there is no "a" on the english side?

      An apple is feminine?

          Why don't you say um pao?

            Remember pão and pao are different.

              Because you'd need an "a" before -bread-

                  Come is others, como is self.

                    I keep getting corrected for accents. How do I do them?

                      Depends on what you are doing inputs with!

                        I thought it would be "Eu como uma maçã e ela come o pão"? Should the "o" be removed?

                          I don't even understand how I got it wrong...

                            "como uma maçã, come pão" is wrong? Why? It said I needed the pronoun "ela" before "come pão." is that right?

                              Yes, you would need "ela" before "come pão". "She eats bread" which is Ela come pão
