refizemos

Refizemos is a verb form in Portuguese, the first-person plural preterite (pretérito perfeito do indicativo) of the verb refazer, meaning to redo or to do again. It indicates a completed action in the past carried out by the speaker and at least one other person, i.e., "we redid."

Morphology and etymology: The verb refazer is built from the prefix re- meaning again and the verb fazer (to do or make). In the preterite, the stem changes to refiz- for the first-person singular, and the nosotros form takes the ending -emos, yielding refizemos. Other preterite forms include eu refiz, tu fizeste, ele refaz, eles refizeram. The form is irregular in its stem but follows the standard preterite endings for the nosotros person.

Usage: Refizemos is commonly used to describe revisions, corrections, or repeated attempts that were completed in the past. It appears in narrative texts, reports, editing tasks, coding projects, and everyday speech to convey that a past action of redoing was carried out by the group including the speaker.

Examples:

- Nós refizemos o relatório após as sugestões dos revisores. (We redid the report after the reviewers’ suggestions.)

- Ontem refizemos o código para corrigir o bug. (Yesterday we redid the code to fix the bug.)
