Eu estava conversando com uma técnica (tentando arrumar o nosso site que está muito lerdo esses dias) e acabamos falando sobre nossos cachorros. Quando eu disse que tínhamos um Beagle, ela disse: They can be a real handful! Vamos descobrir o que significa, e como traduzir, a palavra handful nesse sentido.

If I would talk about someone or something that is difficult to manage, I would probably think about my nephew, Matheus. Despite being obese, he is a quite hectic toddler making him a handful for anyone to deal with. You can’t imagine how he is agitated.

Do you mean that your niece is a handful, meaning she is a lot of work?

Hello Tim! I really enjoy all your podcasts. I hope you had an amazing Xmas.
I have the following question: if I say “kids are a handful”, is it the same as saying “kids are overwhelming”? I have difficulties to translate and use “overwhelming”, however, if I see it in a sentence, I kinda understand the meaning.
I’d really appreciate if you could help me with that. Thanks in advance.
Regards, Jéssica
Hello, Jessica. If you say that kids are “overwhelming”, you mean that you think they are too difficult for you. You are not sure if you could be a mother, for example. The word “overwhelming” would be too strong in this situation.
Buying Christmas presents is quite a handful!
It is, but we made it! [conseguimos!] 😀

The pincher of my wife is quite a handful.
Yes, they’re small, but very lively! 😀
