76 CONYERSATIONAL PORTUGUESE
Generally an object pronoun used with an infini-tive may precede or follow the infinitive if a preposition comes before the infinitive (however, with the prepositions a and em the pronoun comes after the infinitive):
para me falar or to speak to me
para falar-me
In the above case, and when the infinitive foliows another verb, Brazilian usage usually favors using the object pronoun before the infinitive:
źle ąuer me falar. He wants to speak to
me.
Notice that ot os, a, as, are also used to transiate "you”:
Muito prazer em conhece-la. źle os chamou.
I didn’t see you. (masc. sing.)
Fm very glad to know you. (fem. sing.)
He called you. (masc. pL)
Notice in the second example above that when a direct object pronoun foliows the infinitive, the finał r of the infinitive is dropped and an / is pre-fixed to the direct object pronoun.
