[SLANG] como se diz “peidar” em inglês?

Se você tem menos de 18 anos não deve ler essa próxima postagem. Já foi alertado. Se ficou curioso e não vai ficar sem ler a mesma, espalhem pelo Facebook, Twitter, Orkut e outras redes sociais por ai. O blog quer mesmo é audiência.

Em inglês, expelir gases intestinais, vulgo, peidar ou até mesmo peido se diz “(to) fart”.

Leia as frases:

Someone farted in here! Who was it?

(alguém peidou aqui! Quem foi?)

A fart is a combination of gases that travel from the stomach to the anus.

(um peido é uma combinação de gases que viajam do estomago para o cu)

Na gíria inglesa, perder tempo fazendo coisas desnecessárias ou sem importância, ou seja, enrolar, embromar, é to fart about ou to fart around. E uma pessoa chata que não merece respeito é an old fart.

>> artsy-fartsy (US) / arty-farty (UK)

To faff about / round (UK).

COMO SE DIZ “ELA ESTÁ NO MUNDO DA LUA” EM INGLÊS?

Essa semana eu percebi que uma aluna estava o tempo todo olhando para o vazio sem prestar muita atenção à aula. Quando era a vez dela falar alguma coisa, ela parecia não estar ali. Então pensei, “em que será que ela está pensando?”.

Nesse momento me lembrei de uma frase que usamos em português para quando as pessoas não estão prestando atenção no que dizemos: está no mundo da lua.

DIRETO AO PONTO:

Em inglês, ela está no mundo da lua, se diz:

She is building castles in the air.

Vasco da Gama coach Ricardo Gomes suffers stroke during match v Flamengo

The images from Brazil of Vasco da Gama coach Ricardo Gomes suffering a stroke on the touchline on Sunday night, immediately brings to mind the death of legendary Scottish manager Jock Stein, who suffered a heart attack and died in 1985 during a World Cup play-off match between Wales and Scotland.

The latest news from Brazil is that Gomes is in a stable condition after suffering a heart attack during the 0-0 draw between Vasco and Flamengo on Sunday.

Vasco’s team doctor Clovis Munhoz told reporters after the 46-year-old Ricardo had surgery: “The initial treatment is a surgical treatment to relieve the hemorrhaging, so there’s a minimum possible suffering of the cerebral tissue.”

Most striking from the footage is how Gomes attempted to keep his stroke low key by calling the medical team over and seemingly whispering that he wasn’t feeling well.

Although difficult to make out on the video, it also appears that the former Brazil defender and captain made his own way into the ambulance during the second half of the Vasco-Flamengo encounter.

Hurricane Irene is a reminder that adapting to climate change is smart policy, regardless of the climate change part

Watch this video: 

New York Shuts Down For Hurricane Irene

Talk about eery timing. The current special issue of Scientific American is about cities, and as I type this, Hurricane Irene is making her way up the Atlantic seaboard and is expected to reach New York City by Sunday morning.

I, like nearly everyone else, am refreshing news pages, blog posts, and scanning my Twitter feed for stories and updates about Irene. I am particularly drawn to stories about how New York City is preparing for the storm. According to the New York Times, approximately 370,000 people in New York City are being asked to find higher ground. Another 2 million people in surrounding areas are being asked to do the same.

Besides the people using the hurricane as an excuse to drink wine, Irene is a pretty big dang deal for the Big Apple. How big? The New York subway system has been shut down. Things must be serious!

It’s times like these that we are reminded of the breadth and power of Nature, and that severe weather events like these are likely to be more frequent as the climate continues to change. But we are not completely powerless. We can plan ahead for these events to minimize loss of life and damage to our cities.

According the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, over 53 percent of Americans live within 50 miles of a coastline. So, ensuring that our cities and metro areas are prepared for rising sea levels, storm surges, intense rainfall events, and more is smart public policy.

How do you say "AVC" in English?

A stroke, previously known medically as a cerebrovascular accident (CVA), is the rapidly developing loss of brain function(s) due to disturbance in the blood supply to the brain. This can be due to ischemia (lack of blood flow) caused by blockage (thrombosis, arterial embolism), or a hemorrhage (leakage of blood). As a result, the affected area of the brain is unable to function, which might result in an inability to move one or more limbs on one side of the body, inability to understand or formulate speech, or an inability to see one side of the visual field.

A stroke is a medical emergency and can cause permanent neurological damage, complications, and death. It is the leading cause of adult disability in the United States and Europe and the second leading cause of death worldwide. Risk factors for stroke include old age, hypertension (high blood pressure), previous stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), diabetes, high cholesterol, cigarette smoking and atrial fibrillation. High blood pressure is the most important modifiable risk factor of stroke.

[PROVERBS] Como se diz “não deixe para amanhã o que pode fazer hoje” em inglês?

Nesse exato momento, terminei mais uma aula. Mesmo com a missão completa por hoje, ainda tenho que planejar as aulas de amanhã. Gosto de continuar no pique e por causa disso, quando termino uma aula já faço logo a avaliação da mesma para ver o que tenho que mudar para a próxima: vejo o que deu certo e o que deu errado e tento melhorar o máximo que posso.

Como não gosto de deixar para amanhã o que posso fazer hoje, então preparo tudo logo durante a madrugada mesmo.

Mas como dizer isso em inglês: “nunca deixe para amanhã o que pode fazer hoje”?

DIRETO AO ASSUNTO:

Em inglês se diz:

Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today.
