When done, a hyphen is used to separate both words:

Usage notes
The Galician pronouns, being atones, are usually appended to the verb; though sandhi, could acquire the form -no (for example, when appended to a verb form ended in a  or in a nasal consonant, the nasal in -no having an antihiatic epenthetic origin) or -lo (when appended to a verb form ended in a -s or -r, the l having its origin in the assimilation of the -s or -r with the l present in the pronoun before the 12th century).

Etymology
Proposed in 1908 as part of the new Latvian spelling by the scientific commission headed by K. Mīlenbahs, which was accepted and began to be taught in schools in 1909. Prior to that, Latvian had been written in German Fraktur, and sporadically in Cyrillic.

Usage notes
In native Latvian words (and in some older borrowings), o represents the sound of IPA [uə̯] (e.g., [uə̯tɾs]). In more recent borrowings, it represents the original sound of the word, i.e. [o] or [oː] (e.g., [oːpeɾa]).

Usage notes
For the most part, usage of the definite article in Portuguese is the same as in English. Some differences include:
 * it is optionally but commonly used with abstract mass nouns:
 * in Brazil, it can be optionally used with adjectival possessive pronouns, and mandatorily with substantival possessive pronouns; both are mandatory in Portugal:
 * it can be used with personal names; often this indicates familiarity with the person (due to personal connection with them or because they are famous); this is avoided in formal contexts:
 * it is sometimes used instead of a possessive pronoun when the possessor is obvious from the context; this is especially prevalent when referring to parts of the body or one’s own relatives:
 * it is used in a construct that is uncommon in English but common in Portuguese whereby a singular is used as a representative or prototype of all instances of the thing:
 * it is much more commonly used with placenames; most names of countries, states, provinces and continents take the definite article, but only a minority of cities:
