"I am an ant."

Translation: Eu sou uma formiga.

[dallanto123]

And i will write letters to the lion

[Alfabladet]

Say that in PT!

'Eu sou uma formiga' also means that you have a sweet tooth and like snacking. So if someone's been eating all the cake, you can say you have a 'formiga' in the house

So this is actually an idiom and not just one of Duolingo's crazy sentences?

[Murilo_de_Souza]

RomanM.1 Yeah

Ohhh, that makes sense. I was confused when a male, human character said they were an ant.

Hi! I can never remember the difference between sao and sou :(

[CatherineC355234]

Sao is for the plural eles elas são abelhas vs eu sou abelha.

[pigu006]

i am=eu sou they are=eles sao

[sambadojazz]

Why is the indefinite article required for the Portuguese? Wouldn't it just be Sou formiga or Eu sou formiga?

[Paulenrique]

You don't need to translate the article just when you have professions.

So this has moved to Basics 1...

[Mr_Adooni]

Any tips on pronunciation??
