  • Isso te dá as máximas seguranças.

    Avoid mixing singular and plural forms; keep 'segurança' singular.

    Do not confuse with 'dar' in the infinitive; the correct conjugation here is 'dá'.

Cultural Tip

In informal Brazilian Portuguese, 'te' is the usual indirect object pronoun. In more formal contexts—or in Portugal—'lhe' is preferred: 'Isso lhe dá a máxima segurança.' Also, marketing copy often pairs 'máxima segurança' with words like 'garantia' or 'confiança' to boost credibility.
