I can't delete questions, for that you have to contact a moderator: http://www.proz.com/?sp=mod/list
However, you now have the question in the following pairs: Portuguese>Portuguese, Indo-European>Indo-European and Indo-European into English.

Thank you very much . Now I got how to find what I am looking for. I guess I should first try "Indo-European>Indo-European" for the word and then maybe later, "Portuguese>Portuguese".

I think in order to prevent other users to be confused with my notes and previous questions, it is better to omit them. Could you please do it (if you think it is necessary)?

Or maybe you want Indo-European>Indo-European for an explanation of the origin of the word?

If you want to know the origin of the Portuguese word "pantufas" the question should be asked in the pair Portuguese>Portuguese. If you want to know the origin of the word "slippers" in English you should ask the question in the pair English>English.

Dear cristina Santos, What I am looking for is not a "translation help" , it is a "linguistic help". I am looking for the origin(s) of this term .
Maybe I can not search it here? Is this web site just for translation ?

Is Indo-European to English what you want? Or Indo-European to Portuguese? I can change it for you.
