| The title is... I don't know...
Hencom999, should respect the punctuation and "i" should be "I"

| Hi Sweet Dreams Hi hencom999
What does "pedido" mean in English? - Maybe I can find a title.
hencom999 you have a typo in the word "that" two of the letters are muddled and, as Sweet Dreams says, you need to capitalise that "i" for the first person singular, and it should read "you have understood".

| Pedido - request / demand
Desculpas - in this case is apology |
| 5 February 2008 15:52 |
| I think this could be translated as "My apologies". what do you think? |
| 5 February 2008 15:54 |
| Hi Sweet dreams
We call this one "Please forgive me"
What do you think?

| I agree with both of you |
| 5 February 2008 16:03 |
| Now, it's just choice one of the titles... |
| 5 February 2008 23:24 |
| in my opinion, "my apologies" sounds like the best translation of "pedido de desculpas" |

| Sory for my lack of attention, is just that here in Brazil that is the same as to laugh, as to say: hi!
Well, now that I belive you understood, I want to wish you a very good week. Kisses! |

| não tem o mesmo sentido nem as mesmas palavras correspondentes |
| 6 February 2008 20:33 |
| Não? Então, o que acha que está mal? Quais as palavras que não estão bem? |

| Hi all,
I think this needs another edit,here:
"the thing is that here in Brazil that is the same as to laugh, or say hi!"
It's a bit clumsily turned in English, and looks a bit "translated".
How about:
"the thing is that, here in Brazil, "hi" can mean you're laughing or saying hello"
or something similar?
hihi

| BINGO!
Yes, Ruth, what was missing here was that "Hi" itself in the original text.
Now it's understandable.

| "Brazil that is the same as to laugh"
i think it should be used "this" placing that "that" and don use "to laugh" just "laugh"

| Oi hencom
To edit your text:
Click on the "edit" link (blue bar with an arrow on and the word "edit).
This takes you to a page where your translation is in brown, you can correct here.
This page has a timelock (like the tranlsation page) so watch out for the timer!!
Then click on the blue "send" arrow.
If you have any difficulties, let me know
Oi Everyone
If no one has any objections, we can use
"the thing is that, here in Brazil, "hi" can mean you're laughing or saying hello"
to replace the present phrase?

| Everything is OK except that "olá" should be translated as "hello"...
"oi" would be more appropriate for "hi"... |
