dissolvemos

Dissolvemos is the first-person plural present indicative form of the Portuguese verb dissolver, meaning “we dissolve.” The verb describes the act of causing a substance to go into solution by mixing it with a solvent. It is used in scientific contexts to refer to dissolution, as well as in everyday language to describe dissolving substances in liquids, such as dissolving sugar in tea. It can also be used metaphorically to indicate removing barriers or resolving issues, though this sense is less common than the literal one.

Etymology: the term comes from Latin dissolvere, formed from dis- “apart” and solvere “to loosen.” It has cognates in other Romance languages, including Spanish disolver and French dissoudre.

Conjugation and usage: dissolvemos is the form used for the 1st person plural present indicative. Other forms include eu dissolvo, tu dissolves, ele dissolve, vós dissolveis, eles dissolvem. Example: Nós dissolvemos o sal na água até formar uma solução homogênea. The word is primarily used for physical dissolution in chemistry and related fields, but it can appear in instructional or descriptive text across disciplines.
