We just have to be aware to the exceptions. I see the word foods as the same as alimentos in Port. This link gives a variety of examples how to use the word foods in sentences. http://en.bab.la/dictionary/english-portuguese/foods There's also money and moneys money = dinheiro monies, also called moneys = verbas food = comida ( ready for consumption ) foods = alimentos ( food groups like PPAULO explained already ) sugars = açúcares ( there are several different types of sugars available in the market, such as brown sugar, raw sugar, etc. ) sugar = açucar ( that sugar we are using right now, for example, of all the sugars available I prefer turbinado sugar.) dairy products = laticínios milk = leite ( milks = verb to milk in the 3rd person singular affirmative ) |
