  An expression with "no" (2) qualifying a direct object is usually converted into an equivalent expression with "not" during translation:

  • I eat no meat → I don't eat meat → eu não como carne.

  If "no" can be acceptably substituted by "not even one", a double negation is introduced:

  • I see no houses (I see not even one house: acceptable) → I don't see no house → eu não vejo nenhuma casa.

  I eat no meat (I eat not even one meat: weird) → I don't eat meat → eu não como carne.
