Common Mistakes

  • Tudo clara.

    The adjective must stay masculine singular because 'tudo' is treated as neuter, not feminine.

  • Tudo claro?

    When used as a statement, keep the period; a question mark changes the meaning to a direct question, which is acceptable only if you intend to ask.

  • Tudo está claro.

    While grammatically correct, beginners often omit the verb "está" in casual speech; using the full form can sound overly formal in everyday conversation.

Alternatives

  • Entendeu?

    Did you understand?

  • Está claro?

    Is it clear?

  • Tudo bem?

    Everything okay?

  • Ficou claro?

    Was it clear?

Cultural Tip

In Brazil, "Tudo claro" is a very common, friendly way to wrap up an explanation. It can be said with a rising intonation to turn it into a quick check‑question. Avoid using it in very formal written reports; there you would prefer "Está tudo claro" or "Tudo está claro".
