- "Nós temos vestidos."

Maybe it is to show the difference between "Nós temos vestidos" (We have dresses) and "Nós temos vestido" (We have dressed). So this question is here to tell us that we should always use the singular participle (vestido) in the present perfect tense, even if the subject is plural (nós). Also, "Vestido" is a noun, means "dress", however it is also the participle of the verb "vestir" (to dress, to wear). Thus this question emphasizes that participles may be used as nouns too (for example: vestido = dress/dressed; tratado = treaty/treated; partido = party/left,gone; conhecido = acquaintance/known)
