What It Means
Quer vir? is the ultimate invitation. It combines the verb querer (to want) with vir (to come). It is simple, direct, and incredibly common. You are asking if someone has the desire to join your current or future movement. It is the verbal equivalent of holding the door open for a friend.
How To Use It
Using it is a breeze. You just drop it at the end of a statement about your plans. For example, 'I'm going to the beach. Quer vir?'. In Brazil, you often add a você before it: Você quer vir?. In Portugal, the subject is usually dropped. It works for immediate actions or plans for next week. It’s short, punchy, and requires very little grammatical heavy lifting.
When To Use It
Use it whenever you want company. Use it when you are heading to get coffee. Use it when you are leaving a party to go to another one. It’s perfect for texting a friend when you're already at the mall. It’s also great for being polite to a colleague when you’re heading to lunch. If there is a destination involved, this phrase is your best friend.
When NOT To Use It
Don't use it for stationary activities. If you are staying home to watch a movie, use quer assistir? instead. Avoid using it in extremely formal ceremonies, like a wedding invitation, where Gostaríamos de convidá-lo is better. Also, be careful with the tone. If you say it too fast while walking away, it might sound like a fake invitation. Nobody likes the 'pity invite'!
Cultural Background
Portuguese speakers are generally very social and inclusive. It is culturally common to invite people along even if the plan was originally solo. This phrase reflects that 'the more the merrier' attitude. In Brazil, refusing a quer vir? usually requires a small excuse to stay polite. You don't just say 'no,' you say 'I'd love to, but I have to work.'
Common Variations
In casual speech, you’ll hear Bora? which is like 'Let's go?'. You might also hear Quer ir? (Want to go?). While vir implies coming to where you are, ir implies going to a third location. In Rio, you might hear Vamo nessa?. But Quer vir? remains the classic, safe, and clear choice for any beginner.
使用说明
The phrase is neutral-informal. In Brazil, the third-person 'quer' is used for 'você', while in Portugal, 'queres' is used for friends (tu).

Vir vs. Ir
Use `vir` if you are already at the destination or staying where you are. Use `ir` if you are both moving to a new place together.
The Polite Refusal
If someone asks `Quer vir?` and you can't, always start with `Poxa, eu adoraria, mas...` (Gosh, I'd love to, but...). It softens the blow!
