Obrigado a todos. Sinceramente, acho que às vezes dá vontade de fazer boicote a estas perguntas. Ainda que uma pessoa não tenha um dicionário em suporte papel, se tem acesso à internet tb pode aceder a outras páginas e consultar um dicionário online...é o que não falta por aí... Mas enfim, acho que há por aí muitos brincalhões que julgam que ´no espaço do Proz podem fazer as suas travessuras.

Hi "Anonymous":


Explanation:
It's possible that you didn't realize that by not giving a name - not even a screen name - you show up as "Anonymous".

It would be nice if you would identify yourself, at least in some way, so we know who we're talking to.

You can do that by putting it in as additional information.

Thanks,
Ted
