Title
Cada vez mais os humanos tornam-se dependentes da...
Text
Submitted by Diane Larsen
Source language: Portuguese

Cada vez mais os humanos tornam-se dependentes da tecnologia, quase todos dependem de telemóveis, de computadores e muitos não dispensam os seus iPods ou as suas agendas electrónicas.
E desde que foram inventadas as máquinas que substituem o homem nas suas tarefas, como por exemplo os aspiradores autónomos, parece que se tornou um hábito criar máquinas para nos tornarmos uns verdadeiros dependentes de robôs.

Title
More and more humans become dependent on technology
Translation
English

Translated by mgannon
Target language: English

Humans become more and more dependent on technology, almost all rely on mobile phones, computers and many do not do without their IPods or their PDAs.
And ever since they invented machines that replace humans in their tasks, such as the autonomous vacuum, it seems like it has become a habit to create machines so that we become truly dependent on robots.

Hi mgannon,
Welcome to Cucumis

This is a good translation, however we have to correct the syntax a bit.

"Cada vez mais os humanos tornam-se dependentes da tecnologia"
Actually, "cada vez mais" does not refer to people, but to "dependent", therefore the line should read:
"People/humans become more and more dependent on..."

"Dispensar" here means "prescindir" (to do without), not "desistir" (give up)

You changed the syntax of the last line, but I think it sounds better than it would sound the original one, so I guess it's fine
Tell me what you think and if you agree, please click on "Edit" and make the corrections, OK?
