Portuguese Phrase
Alguém tem algum comentário?
Meaning
Literally, “Does anyone have any comment?” It is a polite way to invite feedback, questions, or observations from a group. The double use of indefinite words (alguém, algum) emphasizes that the speaker is open to any contribution, no matter how brief.
When to use
Use this phrase at the end of a presentation, meeting, or classroom discussion when you want to open the floor for remarks. It works both in formal settings (boardrooms, academic seminars) and informal gatherings (study groups, book clubs).
✦Grammar Breakdown
Alguémtemalgumcomentário?
Alguém (indefinite pronoun)
Alguém means “someone/anyone” and always takes a third‑person singular verb.
tem (present of ter)
The verb ter in the present indicative, third‑person singular, agrees with Alguém.
algum (indefinite adjective)
Algum must match the gender and number of the noun that follows; here it is masculine singular, so we use algum, not alguma.
comentário (masculine noun)
Comentário is a masculine singular noun meaning “comment” or “remark”.
Question mark
In Portuguese the question mark is placed only at the end of the sentence, unlike Spanish which uses opening and closing marks.

Cultural Tip
In Brazil, it is common to soften requests for feedback with indefinite pronouns like alguém and algum, which signals openness and respect for all participants. In more formal contexts you might hear “Algum senhor tem algum comentário?” adding a polite title. Avoid sounding demanding; a friendly tone and a brief pause after the question encourage people to speak up.
