For me, "Ele bebe seu leite" was not accepted. Why not?

[Paulenrique]

just report. That should be accepted

[LionsBreath]

it was accepted for me :)

[luzalicia90]

"Seu" can also mean "your" it should be accepted

[manuroschi]

why not "ele bebe a sua leite"?

[Paulenrique]

Leite is a masculine word, so you'd have to use "o seu leite".

[nefter]

does "ele bebe a tua leite" apply?

[Paulenrique]

No. You use "a tua" for feminine words (ele bebe A tuA limonadA e o teu leite). =)

[nefter]

Obrigado!

Whats the difference between teu and seu?

[CarlosAndr297610]

Seu is more formal, teu is used in informal conversations

[Paulenrique]

not in Brazil where teu is rarely used.

[whitneylynn777]

I've heard teu/tua used all the time in Brazil. It very well could be what region of Brazil you're in.

[Maicon77777]

Is their a link that explains when we use seu, teu, etc.. I'm getting mixed up. Thank you

[LevyBarnes]

What's the difference between teu vs. seu?

[Paulenrique]

• teu = your
• seu = his, her, its, your, their

[colyduque]

Why is it not seu?

[Paulenrique]

Right too. Just report

[MiguelRodr49]

Could I have written: "Ele bebe o leite de voce" ?

[Paulenrique]

no, there isn't "de você" as possessive for the singular form, just plural: "de vocês".

[luchomein]

how about ''ele bebe seu leite''

[Luis_Domingos]

Apparently, this is one of the cases where the article is needed in BP; check this page for more information: http://www.duolingo.com/comment/64947

[aaaaaaa114532]

you can say that too

[LevyBarnes]

Why wasn't ele bebe seu leite

[Paulenrique]

It's also right.
