Common Mistakes

  • Sim, me visto de pijama.

    Missing the reflexive pronoun; 'visto' alone means 'I saw'.

  • Sim, me visto de pijamas.

    The word 'pijama' is singular; the plural is 'pijamas' but the phrase uses singular as a collective noun.

  • Sim, eu me visto de pijama.

    Adding 'eu' is redundant but not incorrect; learners often over‑use subject pronouns in Portuguese.

Alternatives

    Yes, I’m in pajamas.

  • Sim, estou usando pijama.

    Yes, I’m wearing pajamas.

  • Sim, estou de pijama agora.

Cultural Tip

In Brazil, wearing pajamas outside the house is generally considered informal and is usually reserved for home or private settings. If you’re video‑calling from home, it’s common to stay in pajamas, but for in‑person meetings you’d switch to more appropriate attire.
