"Nós não temos escadas."

Translation: We do not have stairs.

Why is "We have no stairs" not correct? But "We have not stairs" is??

In English "don't" and "do not" are functional equivalents. If one is a correct translation, the other is too.

No some stairs are movable. Escalators!

Finally I get what my favorite perfume means. :-)

[Paulenrique]

Is it called "Escadas"?

[Paulenrique]

Haha... First time I see it =)

[pinkybrainy]

Can this also be "we don't have ladders"?

[Paulenrique]

Yes, it is also right.

The TTS voice reads out "nóZ não temos escadas." Why is "nós" pronounced "nóZ". I thought the s sounds like z only between two vowels?

[Paulenrique]

Exatcly. At the end of words, it sounds like "s".

OK, I took good note of that. Obrigado.

"we don't have a stairway" should be ok, too.
