peer agreement (net): +2| the men who walked during the service were called the "hushers" os homens que andavam durante o culto eram chamados de "lanterninhas" Explanation: The problem is how to translate "husher." According to dictionaries around the web, husher = usher. According to Michaelis, usher = porteiro, oficial de justiça, indicador de acento em teatro e cinema (Bras. Lanterninha, vaga-lume). In Brazil, "lanterninha" will be understood but probably not elsewhere. Lanterninhas also tell you to be quiet during a movie if you start talking or misbehaving. |
