Title	Boy Scout Terms and Commands
Dịch English Translated by Richard Roe	Target language: English (1) "Be Prepared" (2) "Attention, march! Patrol Leader, Patrol fall in!" (3) Attention, Junior Patrol Leader, assume command! (4) "On my honor, I will do my best..."
Remarks about the translation	(1) The motto of the Boy Scouts in the Lusophone world, "Sempre Alerta," is a translation of the original English "Be Prepared." (2) Sections (2) and (3) concern close-order drill commands, which vary from troop to troop. Consequently, and in the interest of full disclosure, please note that this translator is uncertain of the command "cobrir" in this context. I have conjectured that "cobrir" is used here in its sense of "percorrer determinada distancia." Additional context and precise punctuation would necessary to render these commands exactly. (3) Assuming that the use of â€œsubâ€ in this case is a truncation of the title â€œSub-Monitor,â€ the correct translation is â€œJunior Patrol Leader.â€ (4) This is a Portuguese-language translation of the first line of the Boy Scout oath, which in English is as follows: "On my honor I will do my best/To do my duty to God and my country/and to obey the Scout Law;/To help other people at all times;/To keep myself physically strong,/mentally awake, and morally straight."

	Richard Roe Tổng số bài gửi: 3	Thank you, Ortizon! That inaccuracy was torturing me. While the Scouts may have a unique command for that movement, the standard drill command would be "Right (or Left) Dress!" This calls for each man to hold his right arm out parallel to the ground, with his hand just short of the shoulder of the man to his right, to ensure uniform spacing.

	Richard Roe Tổng số bài gửi: 3	The word you're looking for is "therefore" and not "therefor." You also failed to capitalize the initial letter in the word "English." But thanks for your interesting and helpful comments. Good luck on your English!

	Rodrigues Tổng số bài gửi: 1621	I didn't understand, why "Richard Roe" is laying into my english, while I was pointing out, that the english translation from the portuguese text isn't correct, because "cobrir" isn't "march", but "defilade" !! ????

	kafetzou Tổng số bài gửi: 7963	According to this page, The only Word-of-Mouth commands necessary are "Troop Atten ... tion!" "Troop at ... Ease!" "Scout Sign!" "Scout Salute!" "Hands ... Down!" or "Two!" So ... is "troop" the word we want for "cobrir"?

	Rodrigues Tổng số bài gửi: 1621	But "cobrir" means in german "Deckung / bedecken" and this I knows from my military service is, when all soldat's of a group have to cover/hide them in the ditch, for the enemy cannot see them. This is, like I know the word (german). On www.leo.org you enter "Deckung" there went "defilade [mil.]" the "mil." means military-word...

	casper tavernello Tổng số bài gửi: 5057	No Franz. The word "cobrir" is used as Ortizon said, where the boys are in line and each boy puts his hand on the shoulder of the boy on his front. We used to do it in schools here.

	Rodrigues Tổng số bài gửi: 1621	ok - accepted, but nevertheless this type of "doing" isn't "march" in english.
