✕Common Mistakes
Queremos bom fotos do evento.
Adjectives must agree with the feminine plural noun ‘fotos’; use ‘boas’ instead of ‘bom’.
Queremos boas foto do evento.
‘Fotos’ is plural; if you use the singular ‘foto’, the adjective must also be singular: ‘boa foto’. Here we need the plural form.
Queremos boas fotos da evento.
‘Evento’ is masculine, so the correct contraction is ‘do’ (de + o), not ‘da’.

Cultural Tip
In Brazilian Portuguese, ‘fotos’ is the everyday word for ‘photographs’; ‘fotografias’ sounds more formal. When you want to soften a request, replace ‘queremos’ with ‘gostaríamos de’ or ‘precisaríamos de’. Also, remember that adjectives must match the noun’s gender and number – ‘boas fotos’, not ‘bom fotos’ or ‘boas foto’.
