Usage notes
  • The definite article o (in all its forms), due to historical sandhi, regularly forms contractions when it follows the prepositions a (“to”), con (“with”), de (“of, from”), and en (“in”). For example, con o (“with the”) contracts to co, and en o (“in the”) contracts to no.
  • The definite article o (in all its forms), due to historical sandhi, contracts with preceding words which ends in [s] or [r] into the second form of the article lo (la, los, las); this feature, frequent in spoken Galician, is not always marked in the written language. When done, a hyphen is used to separate both words:
Debes comer o caldo ~ Debes come-lo caldo ― You should eat the soup

Usage notes

The Galician pronouns, being atones, are usually appended to the verb; though sandhi, o could acquire the form -no (for example, when appended to a verb form ended in a falling diphthong or in a nasal consonant, the nasal in -no having an antihiatic epenthetic origin) or -lo (when appended to a verb form ended in a -s or -r, the l having its origin in the assimilation of the -s or -r with the l present in the pronoun before the 12th century).

Etymology

Proposed in 1908 as part of the new Latvian spelling by the scientific commission headed by K. Mīlenbahs, which was accepted and began to be taught in schools in 1909. Prior to that, Latvian had been written in German Fraktur, and sporadically in Cyrillic.

Article

o2

  2. the (masculine singular definite article)

Usage notes

For the most part, usage of the definite article in Portuguese is the same as in English. Some differences include:

  • it is optionally but commonly used with abstract mass nouns:
    O amor é melhor que a guerra. ― Love is better than war.
  • it can be optionally used with adjectival possessive pronouns, and mandatorily with substantival possessive pronouns:
    (O) meu livro é melhor que o seu. ― My book is better than yours.
  • it can be used with personal names; often this indicates familiarity with the person (due to personal connection with them or because they are famous); this is avoided in formal contexts:
    (O) João foi até a cidade. ― João went to the city.
    (O) Einstein foi um cientista famoso. ― Einstein was a famous scientist.
  • it is sometimes used instead of a possessive pronoun when the possessor is obvious from the context; this is especially prevalent when refering to parts of the body or one’s own relatives:
    O pai está viajando. ― (My) dad is travelling.
    Você falou com a tia? ― Did you talk with my/our aunt?
    Quando você quebrou os braços? ― When did you break your arms?
  • it used in a construct that is uncommon in English but common in Portuguese whereby a singular is used as a representative or prototype of all instances of the thing:
    O carvalho é uma árvore grande. ― The oak is a big tree.
    A picape é responsável pela poluição. ― Pick-up trucks are responsible for the pollution.
  • it is much more commonly used with placenames; most countries and states take the definite article, as do a minority of cities:
    Eu moro na França. ― I live in France.
    O Rio de Janeiro fica no Brasil. ― Rio de Janeiro is in Brazil.
