Comments

  • “É que daqui a nada vai dar o Preço Certo” – struggled to comprehend this phrase until I read the translation. Can anyone comment on this phrase? – it just seems a bit weird to me.

    • Maybe this will help:
      “É que” = It’s [just] that
      “Daqui a nada” = In/within no time (very soon)
      “Vai dar” = It will air –> The verb ‘dar’ has lots of idiomatic uses. This is one of them; we can say that things that air on TV “dão na televisão”.

  • Oh, I loved this, very witty, I meditate myself but avoid sounding like a broken freezer; one benefit is that i am now totally fluent in Portuguese and no longer prey to delusions.

  • Thanks Joseph – that’s very helpful. I stumbled on both ‘daqui a nada’ and ‘vai dar’ – nice to have these phrases broken down / translated

  • A atuação neste episódio é ótima – também a guião. Parabéns Eliana e Rui
    Esta deve ser a melhor forma de aprender uma língua, achei-o piada e bem útil. Muito obrigada
