I was reading a book about Tourism book a speaker offered me, and the author noted down some interesting english (mis)translation of portuguese and brazilian toponyms.
So, Copacabana translates as "Hut cover". I can see that. Botafogo is "Set fire". I can see that too.
Now, the rest of the list:
Praca Maua - It's bad square
Tijuca - Juca's uncle
Carnaxide - A steak
Caxias - Workaholics (obvious lie.)
Niteroi - There's no rat (What? No tucos? Sad.)
Miragaia - Watch the gay (just like Soho)
Vila Franca de Xira - Take it Freetown
Estoril - I'm at the river (that's the sea)
Galeao is "Huge cock". Interesting, to say the least. But the location with the most tourism is probably Santarem (Holy Harem).
So... Miragaia galeao, Tijuca.
- Niteroi?
- Just my galeao and my santarem.
Anyone wants to go to Miragaia?
I'll stop now. |
