O texto aparece como português (origem) e inglês (destino), mas deve ser o oposto.

Mesmo assim ( o texto em inglês) deveria ser editado.

P.S. "Collard greens" goes together.

Thanks, Kafetzou. On my translation into Portuguese, I'd already put a footnote to state that "collard greens" gives simply "couve" translated.

Hi,

Collard greens are indeed two words. Look what I found on their history:
Collard greens are vegetables that are members of the cabbage family, but are also close relatives to kale. Although they are available year-round they are at their best from January through April.


Collard greens date back to prehistoric times, and are one of the oldest members of the cabbage family. The ancient Greeks grew kale and collards, although they made no distinction between them. Well before the Christian era, the Romans grew several kinds including those with large leaves and stalks and a mild flavor; broad-leaved forms like collards; and others with curled leaves. The Romans may have taken the coles to Britain and France or the Celts may have introduced them to these countries. They reached into the British Isles in the 4th century B.C.
