"Ela precisa dele."

Translation: She needs him.

[drtluther]

Why not "ela precisa ele"?

[dconn1955]

because the verb "precisar" always needs the preposition "de" to go with it, therefore precisa + (de + ele) = precisa dele.

[PansyPurple]

I put "she needs it" but it was marked wrong. Isn't my translation OK?

[ShirleyMuo2]

You should use "It" only for things or animals, this translated to portugues means "disso" "daquilo". But "dele" means a male person... "him"

[Paulenrique]

Yes, just report.

[Isabelle_Campos]

no its not it does not say she needs it it says to write she needs HIM theres no it

[UserBob]

The girl lost her watch. She needs it. (Ela precisa dele - relógio)
The girl lost her boyfriend. She needs him (Ela precisa dele - namorado)
It depends on the context

[infanted]

What about "she needs his"

[G0108]

His what? If you put his you need something that belongs to him.
