Is it just me or does it sound like she's saying "trabagar"? Might just be my phone's speaker.

[ColBram]

I wrote "she doesn't need work" and it is marked as wrong
Why is "to" necessary?

[4oYBIxtO]

It is necessary in English

[DanielVala298569]

The form that the verb is in, translates as "to work".

[EnjiBenji98]

typing 'doesnt' made me get it wrong because I missed the ' :((

[Danilo-Sam]

Why don't accept "Job"?

[todji]

Probably because job is a noun and it's looking for a verb here. It would need to be "She doesn't need a job", which does have close to the same meaning.

[PawnQuixote]

"She must not work" should be acceptable as well, no?

[Paulenrique]

= ela não deve trabalhar.

[JohnLumley1]

No. Not needing to work and not working via compulsion are not the same thing.

[dtd439]

precisa = need
precisa = must

which on is correct? i thought "precisa de" means "need"?

[NogoBogo]

"precisar de" + noun = to need (noun)

"precisar" + infinitve = to need to (verb)
