[33] Some grammarians make a sort of bugbear of the position of the

pronouns. This is due in part, at least, to the somewhat different

usages in Portugal and Brazil. In Portugal, for example, they would

say: =espero que me faça o favor=, _I hope you can do me the favor_,

and =não se lembrou do recado=, _he did not remember the message_;

while in Brazil they might use these identical expressions or they

might say =espero que faça me o favor= and =não lembrou-se do recado=.

However, aside from the simple rules here given, the position of the

pronoun is a matter of phonetics rather than of rules of grammar.

VII. VERBS

=103.= The Portuguese verbs are either _transitive_ or _intransitive_,

_reflexive_, or _impersonal_. They have _voice_, _mood_, _tense_,

_number_, and _person_.

CONJUGATIONS

=104.= The verbs have three conjugations which are distinguished by the

endings of the infinitives.

+Example+

ENDING INFINITIVE MEANING

First conjugation: =-ar= =andar= to walk

Second conjugation: =-er= =receber= to receive

Third conjugation: =-ir= =punir= to punish

=105.= =Regular and Irregular Verbs.=--Those verbs which are conjugated

like one of the three types are called _regular_; those which are not

so conjugated, or lack some of the parts, are called _irregular_ verbs.

GENERAL TERMINATIONS OF THE REGULAR VERBS

(See Exercise XXI, page 141)

=106.= The following are the terminations of all the forms of the

regular verbs. These are to be added to the roots of the verbs, except

in the cases of the _future_ and _conditional_ of the indicative where

the infinitive is used as the root.

OBSERVATIONS ON THE REGULAR VERBS

(See Exercise XXII, page 142)

=108.= Formerly the third person plural of the indicative present of

the first conjugation ended in =ão=; now it is written =am=; only the

future indicative retains the =ão= ending except in short words where

the =ão= is the predominant sound as =são=, =dão=, =hão=.

The following changes (_a._ to _g._) are required by the necessity of

preserving the hard or soft sounds.

Verbs ending in

_a._ =car= change the =c= to =qu= before =e=: =arrancar=, pret.

=arranquei=, pres. sub. =arranque=; =ficar=, pret. =fiquei=.

_b._ =gar= change the =g= to =gu= before =e=: =apagar=, =apague=;

=jogar=, =jogue=; =cegar=, pret. =ceguei=; =julgar=, pret. =julguei=.

_c._ =ger= and =gir= change the =g= to =j= before =o= and =a=:

=abranger=, =abranjo=; =fugir=, =fujo=, =fuja=.

_d._ =guer= and =guir= drop the =u= before =a= and =o=: =erguer=,

=ergo=; =distinguir=, =distingo= (except =arguir=).

_e._ =çar= drop the cedilla before =e=: =alcançar=, =alcance=.

_f._ =cer= change =c= to =ç= before =a= and =o=: =adoecer=, =adoeço=,

=adoeça=.

_g._ In the third conjugation verbs that have =u= in the final

syllables change it to =o= in the present:

=consume=, 3d per. =consome=

=destruo=, ” ” =destroe=

=acudo=, ” ” =acode=

=fujo=, ” ” =foge=

=cuspo=, ” ” =cospe=

=engulo=, ” ” =engole=

=tusso=, ” ” =tosse=

=bulo=, ” ” =bole=

=cubro=, ” ” =cobre=

=subo=, ” ” =sobe=

=sumo=, ” ” =some=

Analogous changes are made in the first person of the present

indicative of the following: =dormir= becomes =durmo=; =servir=,

=sirvo=; =seguir=, =sigo=; =impedir= (formerly =impido=, now) =impeço=.

AUXILIARY VERBS

(See Exercise XXIII, page 143)

=109.= The principal auxiliary verbs are =ter=, _to have_, and =haver=,

=ser=, and =estar=, _to be_. These verbs, however, are not used

exclusively as auxiliaries, while other verbs are often used as such,

especially =andar= and =ir=, _to go_, and =vir=, _to come_. =Ando

procurando uma casa=, _I am looking for a house_.

_a._ =Ter= and =haver= when used with an infinitive require the

preposition =de=: =tenho de escrever=, or =hei de escrever=, _I have

to write_. In such uses of these verbs, =ter= shows that the thing is

done by necessity, as =temos de morrer=, _we must die_; while =haver=

is used to indicate that it will be done with certainty, or the

resolution to do it.

=Ter= sometimes means _to have_ in the sense of possession, as =tenho

um cavallo=, _I have a horse_; =teve razão=, _he had reason_ or _he

was right_, but it is also used as an auxiliary verb just as it is in

English.

_b._ These particular auxiliaries are often used in place of the

regular future forms of the verbs: =hei-de ir= for =irei=, =ha-de ir=

for =irá=, etc. The hyphen is not always used before the =de=; it may

be written =ha de ir=.

_c._ In the use of =haver= with the preposition =de= the latter is

joined to the verb form: =hei-de escrever=; =hão-de dizer=.

_d._ In general =ter= is used more than =haver=.

_e._ When =andar= is used as an auxiliary it is either followed by

the present participle of another verb or by =a= and the infinitive,

and conveys the idea that the subject of the first verb constantly

practises the action implied by the second: =José anda vadeando= or

=José anda a vadear= means that _Jose is idling constantly_.

_f._ The verbs =ir= and =vir= followed by the present participle of

another verb expresses the gradual realization of the action of the

second verb: =vou acabando=, _I am gradually finishing_, _I am nearing

the end_.

_g._ The verb =ir= followed by the infinitive expresses immediate

future action: =vou passear=, _I am going to take a walk_.

_h._ =Haver= is generally defined as meaning _to have_, but in the

third person it is more nearly equivalent to the verb _to be_. For

example: =não ha agua=, _there is no water_; =houve um temporal=,

_there was a storm_; =se houvesse tempo=, _if there were time_.

_i._ =Ser= means _to be_ in a permanent sense: =sou Americano=, _I

am an American_. It is used as an auxiliary, but only in the passive

voice: =a terra é cultivada=, _the land is cultivated_.[38]

_j._ =Estar= means _to be_, in a transitory or temporary sense: =estou

aqui=, _I am here_; =estou com fome=, _I am hungry_; =estou doente=, _I

am ill_; but =sou doente= means _I am ill beyond recovery_, that is, _I

am an invalid_. =Estou cego=, _I am blind_ (temporarily); =sou cego=,

_I am blind_ (permanently).

_k._ =Estar= is sometimes used to indicate nearness in point of time

where =ser= indicates remoteness, as =elle está morto= means _he has

just died_, whereas =elle é morto= implies that _he died long ago_.

Sometimes either =ser= or =estar= can be used with equal propriety as:

=é claro que= or =está claro que=, _it is evident that_....

_l._ The verb =estar= followed by the preposition =a= or =para= and

an infinitive means that the action of the second verb is to take

place shortly: =Carlos está para casar=, _Charles is on the point of

marrying_; =o vapor está a partir=, _the steamer is about to start_.

_m._ =Estar a= indicates an act in process at the time of the remark:

=ha mais de meia hora está aquelle menino a chorar=, _for more than

half an hour that boy has been crying_.

_n._ =Vir= followed by the preposition =a= and an infinitive expresses

the same idea as would be expressed by the second verb and =por

fim=: =estas palavras veem a significar or estas palavras por fim

significam=, _in the end these words mean_, or _these words amount to_.

_o._ The English auxiliary _do_ has no equivalent in Portuguese.

IRREGULAR VERBS

(See Exercise XXIV, page 144)

=110.= Some of the irregular verbs are so nearly regular that they are

omitted from the following reference list of the verbs most commonly

regarded as irregular. Such are verbs ending in =ahir= and =air=. These

follow the succeeding models in the Present Indicative and Subjunctive

but are otherwise regular.

generally written with =h= in those forms in which the =sa= and =ca=

are followed by accented =i= or =ir=, in which cases the =h= is used to

indicate that the =a= and =i= do not form diphthongs.

_b._ Verbs ending in =uzir= take =uz= instead of =use= in the third

person of the present indicative: =produzir=, _to produce_, =produz=;

=reluzir=, _to shine_, =reluz=.
