"A menina come um morango."

Translation: The girl eats a strawberry.

I notice that the robot voice pauses between 'um' and 'morango' in this sentence rather than running the words together. Would a native speaker pause there, too? In my very limited experience with spoken Portuguese, the robot often seems to be pretty accurate with the slurring.

Okay, I've asked a native speaker from Portugal and a native speaker from Brazil and they both said yes, there should be a pause between 'um' and 'morango'. I guess that answers that.

"The child eats a strawberry" should be accepted as "child" is gender-neutral.

If you want to say the child, you would use a criança. Girl is a female child and this knowledge changes the meaning of the phrase

[Gaspard]

That sentence is probably a valid description of the same scene, but not a translation of "A menina come um morango." a menina -> the girl, not the child.
