Excellent episode! Thank you!
A very nice one, ha,ha . Most of your shorties are very well-behaved. So I understand that the pressure might be building up a bit and that the relieve valve has to do its work now and then.
Congrats!
By the way, I was waiting for our Dona Gertruda making her entrance into the story so as to make short work with the other guys.
Keep on the good work,

Hi there
Loved this. Lots of great expressions.
Please could you explain the first “fazer-se ao bife “ expression , is it different from the second ao bife usage.
Many thanks,
Debbie
“Fazer-se ao bife” means that you’re trying to reach or get something – or usually, someone. If you translated it literally, you’d get something like “(trying to) reach that steak”. “Estar feito ao bife” is different, it means that you’re screwed, you’re toast 🙂 The verb ‘estar’ is essential to convey this difference in meaning.
Thank you !
Esses expressões idiomáticas sao específicos de Lisboa? Ou estão todos em uso no Porto também?
As expressões idiomáticas deste shorty são usadas um pouco por todo o país 🙂 A expressão menos comum aqui é “apanhar uma cadela” (ficar bêbado), mas também não é exclusiva de uma só região.
Shouldn’t it be arrumar confusão? That’s the only term I can find on Google.
Olá, Margit. “Arrumar confusão” is typical of Brazilian Portuguese. In European Portuguese, “armar confusão” is preferable 🙂
