Yup, I am. It's best that I don't tell you what that word means, lest you come across a Portuguese-speaker while out with your dog - you'll be able to claim blissful innocence.Oh, and I checked your reply to Alcyone's post (sorry to snoop). Mira is pronounced MEE-ruh in Portuguese, and it's actually the name of a river here (albeit a small one). It can also mean "aim" in weapons-related topics, and it's also Spanish for "Look!".Forgive my curiosity, but how would you pronounce a few of the words I mentioned before? I think I have an idea but I'd like to know :)
