Portuguese conjugation explanation

-mos-nos -> -mo-nos

<p>

In European Portuguese (and in formal written Brazilian Portuguese), the reflexive pronoun is usually placed after the main verb form. When this is the case, the <strong>letter 's' is dropped</strong> at the end of the first person plural form: sentir-se &#8594; nós sentimo-nos.
