From Old Galician-Portuguese nos, from Latin nōs (“we; us”), from Proto-Italic *nōs.
==== Alternative forms ====
nos (obsolete)
nòs (obsolete)
nóis (pronunciation spelling, Brazil)
==== Pronunciation ====
Homophone: noz
Hyphenation: nós
==== Pronoun ====
nós m pl or f pl by sense
first-person plural nominative personal pronoun: we
Synonyms: (informal) a gente, (obsolete) nós outros
first-person plural prepositional pronoun: us
(Brazil, colloquial, proscribed) first-person plural objective personal pronoun; us
===== Usage notes =====
When the clause features a verb in its first-person plural form, the nominative pronoun nós may be dropped.
The following contraction is usually mandatory in standard usage, but optional when mesmos (“ourselves”) is used for emphasis:
com (“with”) + nós → connosco (Portugal), conosco (Brazil)
Brazilian speakers who use this pronoun colloquially (instead of a gente) may not make the contraction and use com nós instead. They might also use nós with third-person singular verbs. Such usages are highly proscribed but common.
