faria

This is the 2308th most frequent Portuguese word.


faria

"Faria" means "would do" or "would make" in English, as the conditional form of the verb "fazer" (to do/make).


Here, 'faria' is used to indicate a conditional action: 'I would make' is based on an unreal present condition.

Eu faria um bolo se tivesse os ingredientes.

I would make a cake if I had the ingredients.


In this case, 'faria' reflects a future action in reported speech: 'would do' the tasks as part of a recollection.

Ele disse que faria os trabalhos mais tarde.

He said he would do the tasks later.


Here, 'faria' expresses advice or a suggested action under a hypothetical scenario: 'I would do' under the presupposed condition of being the other party.

Se eu fosse vocĂȘ, faria tudo com mais calma.

If I were you, I would do everything more calmly.
