"How many weeks old is your baby?"

Translation: Quantas semanas tem o seu bebê?

[Duomail]

Why could “quantas semanas tem o teu bebê?“ have been rejected?

[Paulenrique]

Right too. Just report.

[amordeouro]

Can you also say "Quantas semanas o seu bebê tem?" or would that sound weird?

[Paulenrique]

No problem. You can say that this way too..

[Kikilangar]

Can I also say quantas semanas tem o bebe da senhora?

[Paulenrique]

Sure. It is right too and formal.

[Luana_Okuda]

No in this context. It is impossible knowing who is the person in this phrase. The word "seu" can refer to father- "senhor" or to mother's baby- "senhora".

[Paulenrique]

Yes, that's why it should also be accepted!

[suco92]

How about "quantas semanas de idade seu bebê tem"

[Paulenrique]

Not natural.

[pbez]

Both 'seu' and 'teu' should be valid for this case, right?

[Paulenrique]

Yes!

[sambonfante]

Is it more common to say "..tem o seu bebe" or "..tem seu bebe"?

[Paulenrique]

We prefer to shorten things, so "seu bebê" is more common.

[sambonfante]

Okay, thanks! :)

Call me stupid or/and a slow learner, but where does the word "old" come into the sentence???

[David201342]

"How old are you?" is phrased as "How many [units] do you have?" in Portuguese.

The correct literal translation for this example is "How many weeks does your baby have?"

The answer would be, "Ele tem cinco semanas" = "He has five weeks" which translated to proper English would be "He is five weeks old"

[Doug858951]

How about -" Quantas semanas velho e seu bebe ?

[Paulenrique]

"velho" is not used when asking about age in Portuguese.
