"Convidamos ele para falar."

Translation: We invite him to talk.

[Picche]

Would 'let's invite him to talk' be a correct solution as well?

[Paulenrique]

That would be "vamos convidá-lo para falar"

[nnamdi619]

In the proper context, would you be able to omit the object and say "vamos convidar para falar?" Are there other ways you can say it? Thanks a lot for the help

[Paulenrique]

Then we'd say: "WHO do we invite to talk?". This verb works better with a complement ;)

[Mesmorino]

But shouldn't this be "Nos convidamos?" It's obvious now that i've got it wrong, but when you've been learning with "Nos" in front and suddenly it's not there...

[pietvo]

Nós is optional because it is implied by the verb form 'convidamos'.

[Christian7652]

Or convidemos ele par falar? Or would that be archaic?

[ZuMako8_Momo]

That's not archaic at all; that would be the imperative mood. «Convidemo-lo para falar.» is another way of saying it

[fatisch]

How would you say, "We invited him to speak."? This is what I wrote and it accepted this answer. There seems to me to be quite a bit of a difference in We invite him to speak.

[Paulenrique]

Nós o convidamos para falar or the same translationd Duo offered.

[pietvo]

That would be the same (or convidámos in PT)

[PaulRobert6]

Why is this "ele" and not "lhe"? I guess because "he" would be performing the action of talking? But still, "him" is the object of the verb "invite".

[ZuMako8_Momo]

If anything, it should be «convidamo-lo», since "him" is the direct object of the invitation. I am just as confused about this.

[Endverbraucher]

Why is "Nós convidamos ele para falar" marked wrong?

[Mesmorino]

"Nos" is different from "Nós".

Nos = We

Nós = Us

I'm pretty sure they're interchangeable, (and they're certainly indistinguishable in speech) but Duo is not that flexible.

[Endverbraucher]

Now I'm a bit confused, I've learned it exactly the opposite way.
Are you really sure?

Thanks for the reply, anyway.

[PhillipBro6]

You are correct Nós = We, Nos = Us

[VictorTheLead]

He might've got confused because of the accent.

[Paulenrique]

Yes, your answer should also be accepted.

[Maureen624957]

Could ypu write...:"Convidamos ele de falar."?
Obrigada

[Paulenrique]

You can use "a falar", but not "de falar".
