Post by John Little »

Me: Eu nunca tinha o encontrado antes

Duo: eu não tinha me encontrado com ele antes

My Bing translator says I was right. Was I?

I would definitely say so. The green owl doesn't even include the word "never!"

From En → Pt GT says:

  • I had never met him before → Eu nunca o tinha conhecido antes

From Pt → En:

  • Eu nunca o tinha conhecido antes → I had never met him before

  • Eu não tinha me encontrado com ele antes → I hadn't met him before

I'm new (here) and still finding my way. But checking your link, it looks like a PC thing rather than mobile app.
. Edit: and I wasn't sure it was a "bug" or even if I was right.

I moved this topic to Sentence discussions.

[mention]John Little[/mention] the Duome extension is a useful and highly recommend tool, but don't worry if you are using the forum on your phone. You can always post any sentence manually.
