Can you help me, please?
Hi, Everybody
I would appreciate help with translating the following chat transcript. I have run it through several online translators and cannot fully understand its meaning. Thank you for your help with this matter. Paulo said: Tenho andado t o cansado que tenho um dia mais livre mas n o consigo descansar Joana said: isso k mau.. Paulo said: Como que aquilo esteve de manh ? Joana said: fiz manha na ct. mas a noite foi ma vou aproveitar a tarde para dormir.. keres vir? so pra te dar um beijo... ontem cheiravas tao bem.. so me apetecia estar o resto da noite a tocar-te... Once again, I really appreciate your help with this. Thank you. |

I've been so tired lately that although I'm not as busy today I can't rest. Joana said: isso k mau.. bummer Paulo said: Como que aquilo esteve de manh ? how has it been this morning? Joana said: fiz manha na ct. I worked at ct in the morning. mas a noite foi ma but the night was ma (this could be wonderful=maravilhoso... given the rest of the conversation...) vou aproveitar a tarde para dormir.. keres vir? I'm sleeping this afternoon... do you want to come by... so pra te dar um beijo... only for a kiss... ontem cheiravas tao bem.. so me apetecia estar o resto da noite a tocar-te... I loved the way you smelled yesterday... I wish I could've been fondling you all night long... warning: this could lead to very risque content .... hahahah Last edited by hankco : 01-30-2008 at 05:02 AM. |

Hi all,
"mas noite foi má", I don't think the evening was "wonderful", despite whole context of conversation. The conjunction "mas" (but) indicates the opposite: he was working during the morning at CT (I wonder what is "CT" in Portuguese, I don't have any clue!) but the evening was bad. Yes, "andado" doesn't mean "to walk" but it is a synonym of the verb to be  Greets, Faraó |

Paulo said: Como que aquilo esteve de manh ?
Small disagreement. I'd translate this as "How was that thing in the morning?" ("That thing" refers to something previously discussed, something not in this conversation but clearly known to both parties.) |
