✕Common Mistakes
Me acompanha até sua mesa por favor
Missing the final period is minor, but learners often forget the comma before ‘por favor’, which separates the request from the polite phrase.
Te acompanha até sua mesa, por favor.
Using ‘te’ instead of ‘me’ changes the meaning to ‘you accompany you’, which is incorrect.
Me acompanha até seu mesa, por favor.
Replacing ‘sua’ with ‘seu’ would be grammatically wrong because ‘mesa’ is feminine.

Cultural Tip
In Brazil, it’s common to address waitstaff with ‘você’ in most regions, but in the South and in more formal settings you might hear ‘o senhor/a senhora’. Adding ‘por favor’ softens the request and shows respect. When the person you’re speaking to is a peer, you could also say ‘Me acompanha até a sua mesa, por gentileza.’
