Common Mistakes

  • Sim, te usa o link de rastreamento que mandei.

    In the affirmative imperative the pronoun must follow the verb, not precede it.

  • Sim, usa o link de rastreamento que te mandou.

    ‘Mandou’ is third‑person past; the speaker should use ‘mandei’ (first‑person) to indicate they sent the link.

  • Sim, linka o link de rastreamento que te mandei.

    ‘Linka’ is a colloquial verb that is not standard; stick with ‘usar’ or ‘acessar’.

Alternatives

  • Claro, utilize o link de rastreamento que eu enviei.

    Sure, use the tracking link I sent.

  • Sim, acesse o link de rastreamento que te passei.

    Yes, access the tracking link I gave you.

  • Use o link de rastreamento que eu te enviei.

    Use the tracking link I sent you.

Cultural Tip

In Brazil, the word ‘link’ (from English) is widely used in everyday conversation, especially online. The informal imperative ‘usa’ is perfectly acceptable among friends, colleagues, or in casual customer‑service chats, but in formal writing you would prefer ‘utilize’ or ‘acesse’. Also, attaching the pronoun after the verb is a rule that many learners forget, so keep it in mind when forming commands.
