English to Portuguese: A Short History of the World / Uma Breve História do Mundo General field: Social Sciences Detailed field: History
Source text - English The story of our world is a story that is still very imperfectly known. A couple of hundred years ago men possessed the history of little more than the last three thousand years. What happened before that time was a matter of legend and speculation. Over a large part of the civilized world it was believed and taught that the world had been created suddenly in 4004 B.C., though authorities differed as to whether this had occurred in the spring or autumn of that year. This fantastically precise misconception was based upon a too literal interpretation of the Hebrew Bible, and upon rather arbitrary theological assumptions connected therewith. Such ideas have long since been abandoned by religious teachers, and it is universally recognized that the universe in which we live has to all appearances existed for an enormous period of time and possibly for endless time. Of course there may be deception in these appearances, as a room may be made to seem endless by putting mirrors facing each other at either end. But that the universe in which we live has existed only for six or seven thousand years may be regarded as an altogether exploded idea.
Translation - Portuguese A história do nosso mundo é um conto ainda pouco conhecido. Algumas centenas de anos atrás, o ser humano tinha consciência da história construída a não mais de três mil anos atrás. O que havia ocorrido antes desse período era preenchido por lendas e especulações. Para a maior parte do mundo civilizado, o mundo havia sido subitamente criado em 4004 a.c., apesar das autoridades diferirem quanto ao seu nascimento ter ocorrido na primavera ou no outono daquele ano. Este equívoco incrivelmente preciso foi baseado em uma interpretação literal da Bíblia Hebraica e em pressupostos teológicos bastante arbitrários que lhe estão associados. Tais ideias foram há muito tempo abandonadas por professores de ensino religioso, e é reconhecido por todos que o universo em que nós vivemos existiu por um enorme período de tempo e possivelmente por um período infinito. Claro que, pode haver um equívoco nessas afirmações, afinal, uma sala pode parecer interminável se colocarmos espelhos virados um para o outro em cada extremidade. Porém, o universo em que nós vivemos possuir um período de existência de apenas seis ou sete mil anos pode ser considerado uma ideia extremamente absurda.
English to Portuguese: Chapeuzinho Vermelho General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - English Once upon a time there was a dear little girl who was loved by everyone who looked at her, but most of all by her grandmother, and there was nothing that she would not have given to the child. Once she gave her a little cap of red velvet, which suited her so well that she would never wear anything else; so she was always called ‘Little Red-Cap.’
One day her mother said to her: ‘Come, Little Red-Cap, here is a piece of cake and a bottle of wine; take them to your grandmother, she is ill and weak, and they will do her good. Set out before it gets hot, and when you are going, walk nicely and quietly and do not run off the path, or you may fall and break the bottle, and then your grandmother will get nothing; and when you go into her room, don’t forget to say, “Good morning”, and don’t peep into every corner before you do it.’
‘I will take great care,’ said Little Red-Cap to her mother, and gave her hand on it.
The grandmother lived out in the wood, half a league from the village, and just as Little Red-Cap entered the wood, a wolf met her. Red-Cap did not know what a wicked creature he was, and was not at all afraid of him.
‘Good day, Little Red-Cap,’ said he.
‘Thank you kindly, wolf.’
‘Whither away so early, Little Red-Cap?’
‘To my grandmother’s.’
‘What have you got in your apron?’
‘Cake and wine; yesterday was baking-day, so poor sick grandmother is to have something good, to make her stronger.’
‘Where does your grandmother live, Little Red-Cap?’
‘A good quarter of a league farther on in the wood; her house stands under the three large oak-trees, the nut-trees are just below; you surely must know it,’ replied Little Red-Cap.
Translation - Portuguese Era uma vez uma menina amada por todos, mas acima de tudo por sua avó, a qual faria de tudo pela criança. Uma vez, ela presenteou sua neta com um chapéu vermelho de veludo, que foi tão amado pela menina que o usava em todas as ocasiões, por isso ela passou a ser chamada de Chapeuzinho Vermelho.
Um dia, sua mãe disse a ela:
— Venha aqui, Chapeuzinho Vermelho, pegue este pedaço de bolo e esta garrafa de vinho, e leve-os até sua avó, pois ela está fraca e doente, e isso alegrará seu dia. Saia antes que fique muito calor e quando estiver indo, ande adequadamente e sem barulho, e não desvie do caminho ou você pode cair e quebrar a garrafa, então sua avó não receberá nada. Quando entrar no quarto dela, não esqueça de dizer “Bom dia” e não espreite cada canto antes disso.
— Tomarei cuidado — prometeu Chapeuzinho Vermelho à sua mãe.
A avó vivia no bosque, a uns dois quilômetros da vila, e assim que Chapeuzinho Vermelho adentrou o bosque, o lobo a encontrou. Por não conhecer a criatura maligna que ele era, ela não ficou com medo dele.
— Tenha um bom dia, Chapeuzinho Vermelho — disse ele.
— Muito obrigada, seu lobo.
— Para onde vai tão cedo, Chapeuzinho Vermelho?
— Para a casa da minha avó.
— O que tem no seu avental?
— Bolo e vinho. Ontem foi dia de pastelaria, então minha pobre avó poderá comer algo delicioso para se fortalecer.
— Onde sua avó vive, Chapeuzinho Vermelho?
— Uns bons dois quilômetros, bosque adentro; A casa dela situa-se sob três grandes carvalhos, com nogueiras logo abaixo. Você certamente deve conhecer. — respondeu Chapeuzinho Vermelho.
