divertir-se naturalmente Explanation: GREEN BEHIND THE GOLD - não é uma expressão idiomática, nem gíria, nem uma frase muito usada. Pode ter 3 significados "eufemísticas" diferentes: 1. "inocência, ingenuidade, simplicidade". 2. "inveja "3. "falsidade, mentira, querendo enganar com aparência de honesto". No contexto acima, a frase foi mal usada, ou usada com um sentido NOVO - "green" foi usado meio ecologicamente para significar "natureza, ou coisas simples naturais, prazeres simples, naturais, sem gastar muito dinheiro" (gold). Muito difícil traduzir o que foi mal escrito/descrito. Eu traduziria: "12 parques nacionais formam um conjunto de diversões (esportes) naturais como..." 8 dicion�rios (4 de express�es idiom�ticas) todos falharam |

"O Verde atrás do Ouro" Explanation: This is the way Australians refer to their hinterland nest to the Gold Coast; see may quotation from a web page: "Hotel is situated on the world famous Gold Coast, long recognised as Australia's holiday playground. With its 42km's of safe, patrolled, pristine beaches that are among the finest in the world, this is a beach lovers paradise. In addition to this, just 20 minutes away is the magical hinterland with its dense tropical rainforests and majestic mountains…we like to refer to it as the Green behind the Gold." Type your sentence at the Google search and you'll see for yourself. Regards, Leo |
