Cultural Tip
In Brazilian Portuguese, using ‘vai + infinitive’ to talk about near‑future actions is very common and sounds natural. When addressing a group, the clitic ‘nos’ (us) is placed before the infinitive verb. In more formal written Portuguese you might see the construction ‘que perguntas o senhor(a) pretende nos fazer?’, which adds a respectful title.
