English to Portuguese translations [PRO] Slang
English term or phrase: live like a king É um aplicativo para Facebook com conselhos sobre a vida pessoal, teste de personalidade, etc. Contexto: "Working freelance is the thing for you! It makes you feel good when you can work your butt off one month to live like a king the next one." Alguém tem uma sugestão um pouco mais criativa para traduzir "live like a king"? Gostaria de fugir do óbvio - "levar uma vida de rei", "ter vida de rei"...	Matheus Chaud KudoZ activity Questions: 397 (none open) (11 closed without grading) Answers: 7924 Brazil Local time: 18:05

expressisverbis Portugal Aprendi uma nova expressão... 21:11 Oct 6, 2015  ... com o colega António. Desconhecia-a em pt-pt e nunca ouvi falar... talvez seja regional, pois pelas minhas bandas parece que preferimos mais outros títulos: "viver como um paxá". Fabio Meira Brazil "Levar uma vida de rei" 22:27 Oct 5, 2015  É mais comum no Pt-Br. Ana Vozone "Levar vida de rei" 22:03 Oct 5, 2015  sem "uma" parece soar melhor do que "Levar uma vida de rei" Trabalhe que nem um louco um mês para levar vida de rei no mês seguinte. Mario Freitas Brazil Sua sugestão é a melhor, IMO 21:24 Oct 5, 2015  "Levar uma vida de rei" é a expressão mais comum em Pt-Br. "À grande" e "à francesa" são Pt-Pt e não se aplicam ao Pt-Br, mesmo porque "à francesa" no Brasil significa sair de finininho ou sem se despedir de ninguém. Automatic update in 00:
