How to Say ‘Save us all’ in Portuguese
Salve a todos nós
SAL-ve ah TOH-dohs nahs
[SAL-ve ah TOH-dohs nahs]
💬 Usage Tip: With people pronouns after the verb, Portuguese often attaches them with a hyphen: salve-nos = "save us," ouvi-nos = "hear us." Here a todos nós adds emphasis: literally "to all of us," but the sense is still just "us all."
