English translation:Six-times World Champion
Explanation:
"... Brazil – Five-times World Champions
Brazil – Five-time winner of World Cup
Brazil wins World Cup for fifth time (uma manchete de jornal, por exemplo).
Agora, quando ganharmos novamente você só vai precisar substituir Five por Six e Fifth por Sixth, cobrindo assim todas as eventualidades. A propósito, não precisa fazer contorções bucais para pronunciar “fifth”, pois a letra “f” no meio some. Basta dizer /fith/."
