US: fries = UK: chips.
In England, a typical street food is fish and chips. Translation is correct.

Ah, here’s Carol to prove Brazilians can be just as stupid as anyone else, and just as zealously over-patriotic as any red-neck trailer-trash American any day.
As a Brazilian myself, I can perfectly attest that anyone who thinks we are the best people in the world is definitely rockin’ the ‘shrooms. Hard.

It’s freaky though to see discussion over language/grammar in two languages on the same thread (the big discussion in Portuguese above is regarding the use of crasis (that’s how Wikipedia calls it).

Oh and I suspect the “Dog turds” are result of either a really bad on-line translator or a practical by whomever did the translation

Você está errada, Julia.

Seja lá quem ensinou vc, ensinou da maneira incorreta.

Como não consigo postar links aqui, sugiro que procure
no Google pelos casos especiais onde NÃO vai crase.
“bife a cavalo” e “bife a passarinho” NÃO vão.

É um erro DE LÓGICA colocar crase antes de palavras
em masculino. Se você compreendesse a formação
LÓGICA das expressões, compreenderia isso.

O moda tá implícito. Tem crase.

E digo isso com certeza por ser uma estudante nerd de ensino médio.

Or those of the restaurant’s owner. As many of the commentators, I am Brazilian, and my opinion is that there is absolutely no way this was not intentional.

By: Daniel Zhe

Daniel Zhe — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 01:34:31 +0000

Caralho…. mas onde que está escrito “moda” em
“Frango a passarinho”?

Procura no Google ou peça a uma professora de português.

By: filipe

filipe — Sat, 24 Jan 2009 01:01:01 +0000

cara…
vai crase.
‘moda’ não é nem nunca foi masculino.

By: Daniel Zhe

Daniel Zhe — Fri, 23 Jan 2009 09:23:52 +0000

NÃO vai crase em frente de palavra masculina NUNCA.

Mesmo que “a moda” esteja implícito, a crase é a contração entre
a prepoposição “a” e *o artigo definido a*.

Como que vc vai colocar um artigo de gênero feminino na frente de
uma palavra masculina?

Isso está incorreto.

NÃO vai crase. Procurem no Google casos em que NUNCA vai crase
se não acreditam.

no caso está correto, pois é subentendido “à maneira” ou “à moda”.

By: Daniel Zhe

Daniel Zhe — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 22:48:06 +0000

Is NOT right.

Como é que tu quer colocar artigo “a” antes de palavra “masculina”
para contrair com a preposição?

Não vai crase antes de palavra do gênero masculino.

google sucks, go learn portuguese and then translate.

By: pft

pft — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 22:30:00 +0000

lol, you fail. its right. “à” is right.
if you are brazilian:

o “a” craseado é resultado da contraçao de A artigo e A preposicao.
a+a=à

duh

Dog turds, and sheep turd is a reference to the morphological aspect of the food. It does indeed look like sheep turds (spherical) and dog turd (you know), you can see that the real translation is in parenthesis.

You’ve come to a message board dedicated to pictures of mocking poor translations.

Therefore you have identified that, culturally at least, you like to laugh at everyone else, but can’t take a joke yourself….

As a result I think it’s pretty unlikely you are going to find much sympathy here.

…that, and you are coming across like a bit of a tool…..

DOUBLE-FAIL: even Portuguese stuff is wrong.

You don’t use `* in front of “passarinho”.

* I don’t know how to say “crase” in English.

Piracui is a fish.

Fascinating. I am American. I do not own a TV. I do not eat fast food. I work in the sciences, so I don’t think I qualify as a stupid idiot. I’m currently wearing a pair of size 6 jeans, so I don’t think I qualify as fat. However, I think Carol qualifies as something of an intolerant racist, whaddya say?

but you got to admit that there’s no way isca de peixe could be translated as dog turds, even with the worst online translator ever.
fish baits maybe, but dog turds? how did that happen?

Part of being a successful troll is NOT TELLING ANYONE. A true troll is distinguished from a “prank” or “bad joke” because there is no punchline. Or there is, but the troll in question doesn’t feel the need to share it with anyone. Watch me as I ignore any future flames I create with this message.

I’m tempted to rant about MS software installations that ask me to choose “English (American)” or “English (International)” and how I find it offensive that there’s no “English (English)” option. But I won’t do that, because I figure most people have innumerable issues with MS anyway…

‘British’ isn’t a language, true, but it’s a perfectly good adjective as applied to English expressions, so there’s no defending Captain Weiner’s objection. Joe’s comment is correct.
