The word "are" in Portuguese can be translated in a few different ways, depending on the context. Here are some possibilities:

1. "Are" as in "They are happy":

* "Eles são felizes." (Formal)

* "Eles estão felizes." (Informal)

2. "Are" as in "What are you doing?":

* "O que você está fazendo?" (Informal)

* "O que você está a fazer?" (Formal, more common in European Portuguese)

3. "Are" as in "There are 3 apples":

* "Existem 3 maçãs." (More formal)

4. "Are" as in "You are beautiful":

* "Tu és bonita." (Informal)

It's important to note that in Portuguese, the verb "to be" (ser or estar) is conjugated according to the subject and the context.

For example:

* "Eu sou" (I am)

* "Tu és" (You are - informal)

* "Ele/Ela/Você é" (He/She/You are - formal)

* "Nós somos" (We are)

* "Vós sois" (You are - formal plural, less common)

* "Eles/Elas são" (They are)
